Is the Canon R-1 a real camera or just a fantasy, or in the future.? I won't buy an 8+grand camera anyway but I am curious

They won't start production until more people say they will buy it than those who say they won't.

Who says it is 8K?
Nikon Z9 is $5,500, https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1629829-REG/nikon_z_9_mirrorless_digital.html

Sources say it will be announced in Q3 of 2022.
Here is all that sources say about the "R1" (Not the real name yet) for now.

Who knows?
