Exactly why I am not at all excited by the Cano 5dR.Just the 56MP sensor without all the other A7II refinements is pointless!!!
And so I've learned.That's because SAR site gets everyones expectations up way too high.
What is the rush? We have a set of slow zooms, a few humongous (current and upcoming) primes. A set of 4 FF NEX'. One more would not do much.This whole A7r replacement thing is really dragging out.

What else, I'm impatient.
Seriously ? I want those extra MP's packaged into an IBIS body.
The A7II I have on loan is not cutting it for my needs.
Can you kindly explain what about the A7II does not work for your needs? TIAWhat is the rush? We have a set of slow zooms, a few humongous (current and upcoming) primes. A set of 4 FF NEX'. One more would not do much.[/QU

I like to print large (30 x 40, or more) is all.Can you kindly explain what about the A7II does not work for your needs? TIA
I need those extra pixels.
I certainly think the 5Dsr is going to be a winner for Canon but for me, unless the dynamic range is on par with Sony/Nikon - I'm still going to need my Sony for architectural work. Once you get used to the extra stops of shadow/highlight detail from the Sony, it's very hard to give up. From your tests between the 5Dsr and the Phase, I'm guessing that the dynamic range is about the same between the two?I have been co-shooting the 5Dsr for a day for a fashiontest for "digit!" Magazine last week in cologne.
As a comparison we had an IQ250 with an 80mm LS lens on a DF+. And I have to say when we were looking through the footage, there was nearly no difference between the Canon and the Phase. Not on sharpness nor on colors or DR. In fact we did mix up the results several times and had to look at the file name at comparison.
Canon plays this very cool right now, but expect the camera to be a huge success.
And it already is. The preorders are legion.....

Different strokes for different Folks I guess.I am pleased with 24MP and since I would use the A7II mostly for street it is fine as is except for the way Sony handles RAW files.
The RAW files from 5Dsr are already available and they confirm that Canon's "patented issues" are still there and limit the DR below ISO 800. Pushing shadows bring up column noise that is caused off-sensor ADCs and analog and more simple dark current subtraction etc. So if there is any DR improvement it is gonna be rather marginal and Canon is still likely to be a few stops behind on what can be achieved by cameras with Sony Exmor sensor.I certainly think the 5Dsr is going to be a winner for Canon but for me, unless the dynamic range is on par with Sony/Nikon - I'm still going to need my Sony for architectural work.

Since when Leica is a competition to Sony?I'm betting that Sony does not want to be "upstaged" by the new Leica on 6/11.
So we'll have to wait till later in the Month for any Sony announcements.
