Canon EOS R3 Imaging Sensor Resolution Confirmed For Good (yes, it’s 24MP)

There wasn’t much of a doubt left. However, a reliable rumor propagator confirmed it: the Canon EOS R3 will have a 24.1MP imaging sensor.

Nokishita tweeted the confirmation of the Canon EOS R3 resolution. Now we have just to wait for the R3 to get released.

The announcement is scheduled for September 14, 2021. It will be the one MILC that’s born to rule, in Canon’s own words.

While waiting for the one that’s born to rule, have a look how impressing the 30fps of the R3 are. We expect the announcement in Fall 2021, likely in September. Here is what we know about the EOS R3 so far:
