EOS R offers the same high level of 4K video features found in the EOS 5D Mark IV, plus advanced upgrades such as noise reduction to improve high ISO performance.
The combination of EOS R’s CMOS sensor with the DIGIC 8 processor means you can shoot in richly-coloured, highly-detailed 4K video with 10-bit output via HDMI. This professional-level video output gives you maximum editing possibilities as well as 4K time-lapse shooting and 4K movie-frame grabs. EOS R features both a headphone socket and a microphone mini mic input.
With a high-speed and wide lens mount, EOS R is an interchangeable lens camera that’s compatible with the new era of RF lenses which have been designed to work at the optimum distance from a full-frame sensor. This combination of high performance optics and a pioneering lens mount form a truly creative camera that pushes forward the frontiers of photography and filmmaking.
The EOS R boasts a full-frame 30.3 Megapixel Dual Pixel CMOS AF sensor which focuses without compromise thanks to its advanced phase detection system advanced DIGIC 8 processing and in-camera Digital Lens Optimizer.
The small and stylish body of EOS R alongside with the technical innovations at its heart, enable you to produce still images and video of exceptional quality. Built-in top-of-the-range Canon features such as Dual Pixel CMOS AF, DP RAW, DIGIC 8 processor and Canon Log help you realise your true creative vision.
Unrivalled quality
EOS R features a Canon’s own 30.3 Megapixel CMOS sensor. It provides high ISO performance and high resolution combined with wide dynamic range. It delivers high-resolution images of unrivalled quality and depth and can record rich detail with low noise up to an amazing ISO 40,000.
EOS R also features the Dual Pixel RAW function, first introduced in the EOS 5D Mark IV. Used with Canon Digital Photo Professional software, it allows you to fine-tune sharpness and change the viewpoint or foreground bokeh for a more pleasing result in post-production.
Fast continuous shooting
For photojournalists, travel and wedding photographers wanting to capture spontaneous or fast action, EOS R offers a blistering 8fps continuous shooting. The camera makes use of Canon’s experience in high-speed readout technologies and its DIGIC 8 processor to achieve a balance between high pixel count and shooting agility. EOS R includes a large buffer and fast write speeds onto a USH-II SD card, so you’ll never have to wait for the camera to catch up.
Create cinematic epics
Filmmakers creating cinematic epics will relish using Canon’s most advanced video product outside of the Cinema EOS line. EOS R offers UHD 4K video output in 10-bit via HDMI, which gives highly detailed, uncompressed, footage. You can also use the Canon Log feature for extended dynamic range, which allows maximum editing flexibility when grading in post-production.
Enjoy the world of EOS with a range of special accessories
For photographers and filmmakers who already own a range of EF and EF-S lenses, the EOS R offers full compatibility via an adapter with no loss of performance or quality. Canon’s Speedlite flash range offers flexible and creative lighting possibilities while EOS accessories open the door to greater creativity.
EOS R is the latest member of the renowned EOS family and fully compatible with a system developed over three decades of continuous refinement. With the innovative design of EOS R, you’ll find it easy to use with other EF, EF-S lenses, Speedlite flashes and accessories via adapter.
Exceptional optical performance
The RF lenses are specially designed to complement EOS R and set new standards in resolving power. The secret of their success is the redesigned lens mount, which places the lens at the optimum distance from the sensor. This ingenious design has opened up new opportunities to create a range of EOS R L-series lenses which offer excellent optical performance, ensuring maximum detail is recorded in the image.
Use your EF or EF-S lenses
As well as RF lenses, you can also use the full range of Canon EF or EF-S lenses on EOS R with absolutely no loss of image quality or performance, via a choice of adapters1. These adapters maintain full communication between body and lens but offer greater control, allowing you to keep using your own lenses and explore others in the Canon lens system.
Explore a high range of lighting possibilities
Another benefit of being part of the EOS family is that Canon EOS R is also compatible with existing Canon accessories including the current full range of Speedlite flashguns and specialist products such as the Macro Ring Lite series. This gives you even more creative options for low-light or creative photography while enjoying the technical benefits of the EOS R.The perfect blend of handling and great design
Canon EOS R has the same comfortable handgrip found on EOS DSLRs and coupled with a high degree of customisation. Innovations such as a multi-function touch bar, a high resolution electronic viewfinder and vari-angle screen, makes it a camera designed to perform effortlessly and intuitively.
The Canon EOS R is a compact, light camera that is smaller than other EOS full-frame DSLRs. Its ergonomic design makes it a dream to use. It packs in all the high-quality EOS features you’d expect, plus offers new and exciting ones that further enhance your shooting experience.
Compact, ergonomic design
From the moment you pick up the Canon EOS R, you’ll find it feels comfortable in your hands. As part of the EOS family, it features the same style hand grip found on DSLR models. The LCD’s intuitive menu system will also be familiar to EOS users. Controls are easy to access, while also offering the added flexibility of being easily customised to suit your own personal preferences. EOS R is the camera you want it to be.
Vari-angle touch screen
Canon EOS R’s 3.15-inch Vari-angle touch screen is bright and clear with an incredible 2.1 million dots to render high resolution images and recorded movies with amazing sharpness and clarity. It can be adjusted to a wide range of angles to help you shoot difficult-to-access subjects, while screen reflections are greatly reduced by Canon’s Clear View II technology. Being able to change the LCD’s colour tone also helps you match your shots to the way you like to view a scene.
A viewfinder with a difference
Shooting with Canon Canon EOS R’s 3.69 million dot Electronic Viewfinder (EVF) enables you to see 100% of the scene and, because you’re holding it to your eye, it gives you a more traditional shooting experience. It also brings added benefits which you don’t get with a traditional optical viewfinder: you can view how the final image will look in real time and see your subject clearly even when it’s in near-darkness. When you don’t have the viewfinder to your eye, a built-in sensor automatically switches the image to the screen, saving battery power. The viewfinder can also be used for video in bright light, making it much easier to switch from shooting stills to video.
Focusing features
When you’re shooting with the EVF, you can quickly and accurately select the AF area by using Touch and Drag focusing. Using this function, you can effectively use the touch screen as a touch pad while you look through the viewfinder. And when your subject is better suited to manual focusing, use EOS R’s focus magnification or focus peaking features for higher accuracy over sharpness.
Customisable multi-function bar
Canon EOS R’s innovative features include its unique multi-function bar. This is a touch-operated control interface that can be customised for a range of functions, from controlling AF to setting your ISO speed or white balance. It’s similar to the familiar EOS control wheel, but with the added benefit of silent operation and enhanced weatherproofing.
Tough, durable, weather-sealed body
Canon EOS R’s tough magnesium alloy body offers a high standard of protection. Its advanced dust and moisture resistance makes it Canon’s most weather resistant mirrorless camera available to date.
