Simply THE best

Anyone who complains about the 24MP is an idiot and doesn't shoot sports professionally.
They also need to learn to frame the image using the view finder and not rely on cropping.
24 MP is more than enough.
The R1 is the Canon equivalent of the Sony A9 III.
The R5 II is the equivalent of the Sony A1 II - just $2000 cheaper.

I own an R1 and R3.
I also own an R5 II and a R5.

The R1 solves most of the issues I have with the R3, like having dual CFX B card slots.
Adding better AF, pre-capture, a bigger, brighter EVF, 40 FPS and to me it was worth the loss selling an R3.
The same with the R5 II vs. the R.

The question is, if I were to trade up again, would it be for a second R1 or a second R5 II?
It would be for a second R1 :)

Verified Purchase:Yes
I shoot high school sports and have previously used EOS 1DX Mark II and III bodies, as well as the EOS R3. I agree that the R1 is not a huge deviation from the 1DX or R3 bodies, but pro shooters don't want (at least I don't want) drastically different models when we upgrade. This camera provides the same feel and features of the other pro models (rugged build, reliability, pro features) and greatly improves features like focus, low light abilities, and quality. I don't want 45 megapixels for sports shooting. I need to take a log of photos and upload/process them fast. I shoot mostly in the jpg format and Canon is long known to have the best jpg processing and color rendition. The R1 continues that and is the perfect upgrade for my 1DX and R3 bodies.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I wanted to pre-order this, but I could not. This is just a slight hardware bump over the R3, sure the autofocus will be great but without a higher resolution picture, it will produce the same images that the R3 makes. Save your money and wait for a version that has more megapixels.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I hoped this camera would be higher than the R5 which I own which has 45 mp images. I prayed that this Amazing camera would at least be 65 mp. Nope! It’s just a 24 mp…. Why ? Why? Why? Fuljifilm has 104 mp cameras and Sony had 65 mp cameras and Canon does not.
