Re: What ever happened to the high MP R5s?

Rumors can only persist for so long without any information to support them. Everyone hyped up the rumors, speculated what little "information" existed to death, and now have nothing. There hasnt been any information, leaked or speculative, as of late on a high MP R body, so obviously the rumors slowed down alot.

As for seeing one this year? Hard to say for sure (obviously), I would hazard a guess and say no. The R5 hit a sweet spot in resolution for most users, and Canon is more likely to respond to the Z9 before a high MP body. I would also expect an APS-C RF mount body before a high MP body, but thats just my guess, like everyone else.
