I doubt it will be 85mp. Canon will keep the mp low enough to make sure the speed is at top level and not to forget, to keep file size manageable. Imagine using 85mp sized files to send images through wireless connection straight to big worldpaper newseditors..
85mp would be more for something like a r5s (like the 5Ds)
You can lower the file size to increase fps.
How would that work?
Usually fps is limited by sensor read speed, not card write. So compression would only make it need more cpu power. Pixel bining also adds more cpu power to the mix.
So, the 2 most probable ways to increase fps would be to line skip or crop, both would leave you with less than a full frame sensor, probably significantly so.
Because, let's face it, if the sensor can read faster than 15 fps anyway, why need to lower resolution? Lower data rates? At the cost of a boat load of heat and processing power to pixel bin the images?
I think some have said I like being able to shoot at 85MP when I need or want it.... But at times I need 20MP to get OOC JPEG's to a truck or editor (sports) when shooting tethered. Noting would stop you from doing that. With the same modality at a lower resolution almost every camera I use can do that now. It's not advanced, it's the norm. All we're saying is give the photographer the latitude to determine what they want from a resolution perspective. I do this now with my 1DXMKIII and II, I just start at 20MP vs. 80.
Does it shoot faster in low resolution?
Yes.
Nice, how many fps does the 1dx mark3 have at 10mpx? 30 fps, 40fps? I've never seen it mentioned anywhere, your camera must have been custom made for you, since you're so special and best Canon customer ever.
