I have a 5R ordered. This is the first I heard about the 12 bit electronic shutter. I could be wrong but I find that disappointing. What are the advantages and disadvantages of electronic versus mechanical shutter with the 5R?[..]

I rented a 1dx3 a few weeks back and I was happy with the results from the ES. Especially on a tripod, it removes all shutter shock. Since most of the tripod shots were properly exposed I didn't need to tweak exposure a lot in post. For the other shots I didn't notice a big difference compared to 14-bit files from my RP.
