Canon is rumored to announce a new higher resolution 90MP Canon EOS R5S which is being tested by a very select group of Photographers. The name is not clear at the moment but recent reports indicate that this EOS R5s will arrive with a new Pixel Shift like feature.
The sensor resolution looks amazing as 90MP which “just about doubles” the 45MP sensor of the Canon EOS R5 (Amazon, B&H). We can assume that this pixel shift like feature could bump the resolution to 300MP just like Fuji did on the GFX 100. Anyway Beyond the HIGH megapixels, the EVF will also be larger and higher than the current Canon EOS R5. See more details about the Canon EOS R5s.
- Approxamently 90mp sensor
- “Pixel-shift like feature” to add resolution (Perhaps like Fujifilm’s feature in the GFX 100?). Total resolution “north of 300mp”.
- Nearly identical body design as the Canon EOS R5.
- Video features are “NOT a focus” of the Canon EOS R5s.
- Image stabilization will be a “slightly different version” than the current RF mount cameras.
- Pricing will be “similar” to the Canon EOS R5.
- Announcement scheduled for Q1 of 2021 (All announcements are still a moving target for obvious reasons.)
