Latest rumored specs for the coming Canon R1 flagship camera. Are you Canon users interested to get this?
It doesn't have a mechanical shutter nor global shutter similar to that of the Nikon Z8 and Z9.

Most important is the speed of the sensor (500 times faster than Nikon and Sony) and the sync speed for flash of 1250! I like the 30 mpx size, it is the perfect file size.
FYI, the global shutter sensor Sony A9III would be faster than ANY stacked sensor from Canon, Nikon, Sony, with instant full sensor readout, flash sync speed up to 1/80,000 second, just the facts. No stacked sensor R1 can attain what a true global shutter can attain in sensor speed, just physics. The R1 stacked sensor will be very fast, but wont be 500 times faster than any Sony, sorry.
Cheers and best to you.

As a longtime award-winning pro of over 50 years in the business and as also a longtime Professor of Photography at a state university, with my Master's Degree in Digital Photography, I respect DXO, but their final numbers have a flaw.
You have to understand that some of DXO's evaluations whether or not a camera is good for a particular type of photography are SUBJECTIVE and NOT independently objective test numbers. And these subjective results are factored into their final numbers for a camera.
Combining objective numbers from MTF-standard sharpness test numbers and subjective performance area evaluation numbers for their final numbers, that is the flaw in their ratings, sorry.
Cheers and best to you.

The facts. The Nikon Z8, and Z9 have the same stacked sensor, they do not have global shutters. The only fullframe mirrorless camera with a global shutter is the new Sony A9III.
Cheers

It seems to me the R1 has the speed but that's about all. If you don't need speed then the R5 is better.
A good R1 overview from Tony Northrup. This one is actually informative about a few new items ,and watchable .

The R1 will have a very fast stacked sensor ,short of the sensor speed of the global shutter of the A9III, but very fast with good dynamic range and dual gain.
If there had been no Sony A9III, Canon's hype that the R1 would have been "the camera to rule them all" would have been closer to true. But at 30mp, the R1 is not the 45mp of the R5, the 45mp of the Nikon Z9/Z8, the 50mp of the Sony A1, or the 61mp of the Sony A7RV.
Cheers and best to you all.
