I´m still looking to get APS-C resolution beast. At least 32Mpx for 8k stills, but more would be interesting. I think we don´t get either significantly more pixels or larger sensor. It´s Canon, after all...

The problem with the current APS-C 24Mpx sensor generation is that diffraction is now around f/7.1 so the ideal way up would be to maintain current density but expand the sensor a bit, as described above.

I cannot agree, as the diffraction is not the hard limit solving all issues. If you still can see moire at f/7.1, and if you still need to process images in a way it could hurt the resolution (rotation and some more), you definitely can use higher pixel density. Also, I usually shoot in the f/1.4 to f/5.6 range on my crop camera. So, pixel density is not a limiting factor here at all. Look at Old nokia 1"ish sensor at 42Mpx. If it was at APS-C size, it would totally kill any 32Mpx sensor in real output resolution. it kills many FF sensors  now....

Such body would make a better justification to buy and use EF lenses because you are gaining something. Higher Image Quality.

I would appreciate both. Greater pixel density and APS-H sensor. They could already slap the 120Mpx one they have there... Done

But agree, more than likely Canon will, once again disappoint.

I would bet they do...
