Unless some sort of negative with the "r" is observed, that is enough of a difference that I expect the "r" to be popular with those that want every bit of resolution. It is also interesting, I wonder if Canon will start removing the AA filter in all their bodies. If so, the 5DIV and 1DX II, even with similar MP, may see a benefit and close this resolution gap a bit.
  • An example of lens limited resolution may have appeared, the Zeiss 21 mm f/2.8 in the corners.
Looking at the numbers 20% for the 5Ds. About what I thought I was getting with the 7D II for added reach/crop in the real world. 27% for the 5 5Dsr you might be able to crop just a bit more.

I think the driving factor whether Canon removes the filter is moire. Until it is out a few months and we start hearing complaints and regrets it is still to early to say.
