Nikon and Canon’s most expensive cameras have sensor readout that’s so fast that there is no rolling shutter. Nikon’s is so fast that they don’t even have a mechanical shutter.

So I agree it’s a very safe bet that the R5 and R6-level cameras will not have rolling shutter issues in 5 years or less. Of course, someone will inevitably find a corner case, like the shape of bokeh balls when the lens is wide open and the shutter speed is super high, something like that.

Real issue, but wrong mode.  It is EFCS that has that potential problem; not e-shutter.  Not many people are complaining about the rolling shutter speed of EFCS or full-mechanical shutter on their camera.
