I had no idea about this. I wonder how many people know or actually don't have a clue that this AF system is present in these existing and really expensive Canon ML bodies. That's amazing, and not in a good way.

If what Tony says is true that Canon is waiting to put that quad AF system in the R1, wouldn't that be a major slap on the face for the customer that is buying the expensive R5 and R3 right now?

I agree with you and believe the potential for the R1 to have quad pixel auto-focus and a higher pixel count make waiting for an R1 development announcement before purchasing an R3 very compelling.
