Digital camera world suggests R5 uses new AA from 1dxiii and it has new method/gausisan correction that causes its resolution to be equal to 5DR. I have not seen this in Canon quotes or test results.
"All of this is thanks to the brand new 45MP image sensor, which Canon claims makes the R5 “the highest resolution EOS camera ever” – supposedly resolving even greater detail than the 50.6MP Canon EOS 5DS / R. This is thanks to the new low-pass filter design, which was introduced in the flagship Canon EOS-1D X Mark III. I also saw that claim - they are the only site to mention it specifically. That's why I went to the Canon site and quoted them above. The 16-point AA filter is undoubtedly more expensive to fabricate and is a "pride" of achievement so you would expect them to list it in the specs, no? I'd be happy if it were true (and the only explanation would be an error on CanonUSA's part in their spec listings. From the Canon specs.here
1D X Mark III Low Pass Filter : High Detail Low Pass Filter, breaking one incoming light ray into 16 rays at image sensor
R5 Low Pass Filter: Installed in front of the image sensor, non-detachable
Edited to add, from the Canon.jp Japanese website:
In addition, the low-pass filter that reduces false color and moire is composed of two independent plate materials: birefringent crystal that vibrates ultrasonically and infrared absorbing glass. definitely not how they would describethe fancy 16-point filter!
