Lots of rumors more than a year ago of a pending announcement this year for a high MP R5s variant that have gone quiet for a little more than a year now. I realize that the R5c was a much more important development effort to put the overheating issues to bed. And the need to develop an R3 as well as an R1 also took priority. But will we see an ~90-100MP R5s this year?
I've no idea, but as far as I'm concerned 45MP is already high MP. I'm sure that Canon will bring out an even higher MP model sometime. This year? Who knows? From what I can tell, other models (not just the R1) are more important. The R was released almost 4 years ago. An update in that rough price point/market position seems more important to me than something with 90-100MP. But everyone has their own preferences, so there's always someone to be disappointed by what Canon (or any other camera company) chooses to do.

Holy Stone produces dozens of low-cost drone models aimed at consumers. We look at the HS710 and HS175D to see if they stack up to other sub-250g offerings. Are these secretly great or more like toys?
