Report is Canon is testing multiple sensors in the R7 body, which one do you think they should choose to release?

I reckon an R7 would be targeted at photographers who want speed and reach. 20MP would be underwhelming and Canon already has a 32MP sensor for APSC.

I am not sure about lenses though. The current RF line up is not very attractive for APSC. They should come out with at least a suitable kit lens.

The rumored RF 18-45 would fit the bill for a crop standard zoom, if a bit short on the long end, and the already-released 70-200/100-500 would be great long telephoto lenses on crop. They need to do something about the 45-70mm gap, though: carrying an 18-45 and 24-70 or 24-105 together doesn’t sound terribly elegant. Perhaps this may be a good time for Sigma to step in with a 50-150F2.8?
