Canon EOS R1 And EOS R5 Mark II Now Rumored Not To Have A Global Shutter
It’s always funny when rumor sites discredit their own rumors. What a fancy game!

It was suggested that readout speeds will be good enough to make the advantages of a global shutter less prominent, while maintaining the expected image quality in the next generation prosumer and flagship camera bodies. The same source claims that Canon’s next image sensors will have bigger advancements in performance than we’re used to from a new generation of Canon consumer sensors.
Don’t waste your time with rumors, go out snapping pics instead.
