First, a quick report on the new Canon EOS 5DS/R camera from a reader who attended a recent 5DS event in Asia (click on images for larger view):

• The Canon 5DS/R will start shipping in June, 2015
• MSRP in Asia will be around HK$26-27k
• The camera does feel heavy and sturdy
• Continuous shooting is slow as expected
• Shutter operation is soft (as in the 5DIII)
• The duplex display inside the viewfinder feels a bit complicated

The Canon EOS 5DS/R pre-orders will start tomorrow in the US according to the product listings at B&H:

Sample images and videos from the 5DS/R can be found here and here. Additional information on the camera's features and specifications is available here and here.
