I'm sure it's a good camera. A very good camera, but the R1 is only very slightly faster than the Z8's readout, despite having half the resolution.
Have we seen any measurements of the R1 readout speed yet? Closest I've seen is the flash sync speed which is 2x as fast as the Z8.
From Canon's official technical specs, the R1 can flash sync at 1/320s, but that's with electronic first curtain shutter (so it uses the mechanical shutter for the second curtain). Z8 is 1/200s, so it's not twice as fast. Also, the R1 does 1/200s in full mechanical. The official technical specifications don't list a sync speed in electronic shutter mode, and in fact have a listing that says that flash is not available in electronic shutter mode. (Nor can it be used for HDR, multiple exposure, multi shot noise reduction, AEB, HDR PQ, or anti-flicker shooting (say what?).
That's honestly just utterly baffling.
