It will be another year before Canon releases their new flagship, so before that time I will enjoy the superb performance of my DLSR. But I will embrace the new mirrorless in 2023.
As for image quality between the two types, there is no difference. Any kind of evf preview is not a big deal for me. With no buffer limit to worry about with the 1DX, this DLSR has a clear advantage there.
Times are changing for sure, but it has taken time to work out the bugs. My time with Fuji has been frustrating when it came to auto-focus accuracy in the past, but I look forward to the improvements being made in the new mirrorless designs.
Weight has a clear advantage, but isn't it funny how many of the top end mirrorless are evolving to bigger and bulkier designs with some hefty new lenses...

Wrong, they are not anyway as large and heavy as my former Canon EOS 1DX or my former Nikon D5, look up the weights and sizes before you make false statements. AND all my Sony battery packs can be removed and the cameras used without them, making them even smaller and lighter that ANY Canon EOS 1 DX or Nikon D5 could ever dream of being. And Sony isn't bulking up. But Nikon Z9 was hefty to give comfort to heavy-brick DSLR users as they transitioned. LOL .
I will never use an integrated grip pro camera ever again, and my back and neck thank me.
I have no buffer limit with my Sony A1 using CFExpress Type A cards as my buffer clears as fast as I shoot. Again do better research before you make statements .
I you really had shot with a pro mirrorless with all the advantages of a top EVF like in my A1, with 9.44 million dots with 240 fps refresh rate, you would know that they have no blackouts even shooting at 30 fps (NO DSLR OVF can EVER do that with that flopping mirror) and give you preview and review that no DSLR can ever do.
I have owned and shot professionally with the best pro DSLRs from Nikon and Canon for decades around the world, and now shoot with top pro mirrorless gear and my mirrorless gear is far superior in so many ways, innovations performance, superior autofocus, better tracking, faster frames per second, true silent shooting (and with stacked sensors, no rolling shutter in silent shooting).
Pros around the world are moving to pro mirrorless and dumping their DSLRS. We know top mirrorless gear gives us a competitive advantage over DSLR shooters. I enjoy all those distinct advantages ever time I use my cameras around the world.
Just listen to and read what top News Services like Associated Press, Canada Press, all Gannett Media, UK Press and AFP (Agence France Press) have to say why they all moved over to mirrorless in the past 20 months for all their staff photographers and staff videographers worldwide, and it wasn't because anyone paid them to move to mirrorless.

Cheers and best to you.
