A 100-megapixel camera has been appearing regularly in the rumour mill for years. This time, it is said to be a new R system camera with a full-frame sensor.

At present, the Canon EOS R5, with 45 megapixels, offers the highest available resolution in the R system. Canon is apparently working on a camera with more than twice the resolution. Possibly under the name Canon EOS R5s.

The S suffix would make sense. After all, the Canon EOS 5D also had a 5Ds sibling with higher resolution, 50 megapixels, which at the time was also more than double.

To make optimal use of that high resolution, you would probably need to use Canon RF lenses specifically, rather than EF lenses with an adapter.

Earlier rumours were already about a Canon EOS R1 that would be released in 2023. It is unlikely that this camera would have this 100-megapixel sensor. So this would be an additional model.
