I really think we shouldn't hang on to one company's solution (i.e. Sony's BSI, stacked, etc. sensors). Companies have shown that there's more than one way to skin a cat to get the desired results.
For example, the real gains for AF are going to come not from sensors, but both increases in processing power and the algorithms to run the autofocus. Same for image quality (on a per-pixel basis) - gains can come from better signal processing, which Canon is already doing in low-light situations, and far better than Sony's heavy-handed "raw but not actually" default lossy compression. I wonder when they're going to get rid of that and default to lossless compression... anyway.
We'll see what the future holds. There's probably more to be gained both for pure image fidelity capture and in camera system acquisition performance just from incorporating current semiconductor and machine learning advancements, given that cameras generally aren't the leading edge of either, and we can probably get more out of the current optical lens theories as well....Show more →
I'm not saying that it cannot be done, but that it will require Canon's best technology, like BSI stacked sensor that is currently reserved for the R3. So it is either a while into the future, or will be a more expensive line than R5.
