since when do we claim that someone is leading the space based on a rumored product that doesnt exist?

And Sony with their sad sensor tech still is like 3 years behind the R5 Mark I, with slow-mo 7 FPS and 1/10th of a second sensor readout.

And Nikon seems locked into those lagging Sony sensors as well, so there is little hope for stronger competition from there.

The R5-series really continues to lead their market segment by more than one step.
