I am not in the market for a pro body and even if was I would have zero use for 85 MP.

R1 will have around 20 - 30 MP because that is all that is needed by the fastest sports camera in the world.

There will be a super high res model, it won't be the R1.

I'd bet there would perhaps be a R1S to offer that higher Rez for those that consider that their priority. However I can't see HOW a 85mp FF sensor can be fairly low in noise as well, which frankly is a priority in a pro level camera. It most certainly would have to have at least a 10mp EVF that would have NO high speed tracking issues nor delays. If they were smart it would be able to switch resolutions rendered along with maybe even customizable speed selections. A major long life battery needless to say. But as is almost always the case it won't likely be much if any of the above of what I've mentioned.

Name the gear and I've probably owned it and used it.
