Canon Rumors reports that the successor to M5 is coming in late 2020 or early 2021.

It says it will be something like APSC EOS R6. Although it is not sure that it has RF or EFM mount, it looks kind of a replacement for 7D mk2.

1. Which mount do you think the new body will take?

In my opinion, if it is truly a replacement for 7D line, it must have RF mount rather than EFM. However, I would rather have M5mk2 with R6/R6's fast AF and shutter.

2. How many pixels do you think it is supposed to have: 20MP or 32MP?

R6 has 20MP, while M6mk2 has 32MP. If it has 20MP only like R6, I believe that it cannot be called as a successor to M5.

the advantage of m62 and that 32 mpxl sensor is REACH and SMALL SIZE

unless they take ADVANTAGE of  the technology for its STRENGTHS, then why bother
