Both Canon and Sony might announce the first 100MP cameras in 2022

Let’s start from a fact: Sony already has this IMX555 Full Frame sensor with 102Megapixel. And now to the rumors:

Next year (2022) both Canon and Sony might announce new High Resolution cameras with 100+ Megapixels. And I have no doubt there is some truth behind the rumors because Sony and Canon managers surely want to be the first to break the “clickbait” 100MP Megapixel news barrier.
