Abstract: The The second half of 2018 will be remembered as a momentous time for the camera world because Canon and Nikon, two of the most storied companies in the industry, finally got serious about mirrorless cameras. They both launched new full-frame mirrorless...
M-Fn bar tricky to use effectively, Uncomfortable rear dial, Omits focus joystick, No in-body stabilization system, Inconsistent metering, Single memory card slot, No PC sync socket, 4K video is heavily cropped
Canon's first full-frame mirrorless camera, the EOS R, offers strong image quality and autofocus, but is held back by its ergonomics and video system...
There's a lot to like about the Canon EOS R, including its fast and accurate autofocus system; excellent image quality; tough but comfortable build featuring one of the best grips in the full frame mirrorless camera category; and Canon's top-notch color s...
Excellent image quality, A lot of 5D Mark IV parts in a $2,300 body, Terrific ergonomics & menus, Easy to customize (especially with the control ring), Dual-Pixel CMOS AF, Vari-angle display flexibility, External 10-bit video recording with C-log, STUNNIN
Heavily cropped 4K video (Almost Micro FourThirds), No 1080p 120fps slow motion, Less dynamic range than Sony & Nikon, Missing dual card slots, Lacks IBIS, EyeAF & AF-C need improvement, Multi-function bar is a fun idea, but doesn't quite work
Make no mistake, the EOS R is not only a very good first generation product, it's a very good camera. Period. It's more than capable of producing sharp, professional photographs with more resolution than the Sony A7 III and Nikon Z6 for only a few hundred...
Abstract: The Canon R mirrorless camera has been certainly a hot topic of late. Every website and YouTuber has had a lot to say about this camera. Some love it, some don't. At Luminous-Landscape we have covered this camera in several previous videos. We did a camer...
General and social photography, casual video shooters and those looking for either a backup body for their full-frame Canon glass or are looking at building up a collection of new RF lenses
Those looking to shoot sports or fast-moving subjects, those needing the absolute best image quality for either landscape or video work
The EOS R can take some great photos, but is broadly overshadowed by the competition and struggles to stand out in today's crowded market.Read moreSample galleryView a variety of sample images from our final production EOS R.Read more...

Wide choice of adapters for Canon DSLR lenses, Accurate Dual Pixel autofocus, Excellent image quality, Fully articulating touchscreen, Bulletproof body and big grip
4K video crippled by 1.8x crop and max 30 fps, No in-body stabilization, Wonky touchpad instead of joystick, Single UHS II card slot
Strong as it is in some areas, I can't help but see the EOS R as a lost opportunity for Canon. The company has a well-deserved reputation for pioneering large-sensor DSLR video, yet its first full-frame mirrorless camera falls down against rivals in that...

Fully Articulating Monitor, 10Bit output via the HDMI
1.7x crop factor when shooting 4K, Poor rolling shutter performance
We really liked the Canon EOS R. In many ways, Canon offered innovative and new features that were not yet in the full frame mirrorless market. The M-Fn bar is an indicator that Canon is willing to step out of conventional thinking. Add in the cool ND fil...
Lots of the little things, Ergonomics are nice, Battery life, The lenses are what will make this system,
Needs a joy stick, Dual card slots would be really nice, I personally wanted an updated version of the 5Ds's sensor
Alas, we aren't being treated to Canon's high end EOS R camera, but with the Canon EOS RP we're getting a pretty interesting candidate in the mix. The Canon EOS RP is being aggressively priced at $1,299 and has the same sensor at the heart of the Canon 6D...
