Canon EOS R1 is rumored to be in development and the rumor mill claims that it will be the new flagship RF mount mirrorless camera. Latest reports indicates that this mirrorless version of the EOS-1D X Mark III, the Canon EOS R1 will feature Global Shutter with Quad-Pixel AF.
Dual Pixel AF technology would improve autofocus accuracy no matter what orientation the subject or the camera is in, while a global shutter sensor would effectively remove rolling shutter when shooting video or stills in the electronic shutter mode.
