No, Canon WON'T use global shutters for the EOS R1 and R5 Mark II (report)

No global shutter on Canon EOS R1.

Despite all the furor over global shutter sensors, Canon will not be adopting the technology for its upcoming EOS R1 and R5 Mark II. 

That's the latest chatter emerging online, in the wake of the headline-grabbing Sony A9 III and its incredible global shutter image sensor. Given the hype surrounding the A9 III's capabilities – such as 1/80,000 sec shutter speed and 120fps full-frame RAW shooting – there has been speculation that the Canon EOS R1 and the successor to the Canon EOS R5 will feature global shutter sensors.
