to keep this short the EOS R is the easiest, smoothest, and most satisfying camera I've ever had the pleasure of using. It is not a pro sports photography or a paramount level cinematography camera but it does everything effectively, efficiently, and has definitely exceeded my expectations in pre...

The Canon EOS R isn't just a mirrorless version of the 5D Mark IV DSLR. Nope, this full-frame mirrorless is a major turning point for Canon, embodying both risk and reward in one very capable and commendable product.

Full-frame sensor and new lens line-up delivers superb quality potential; Loads of customisation options; Intuitive touch controls and M-Fn Bar has potential; Finally a Canon mirrorless with impressive autofocus options; Can focus in very low-light conditions

Lenses really aren't small; Just one SD card slot; It's rather pricey; Learning curve for DSLR users: various settings hidden/require scrolling; Autofocus could be more precise in some situations

When it launched in October 2018, we declared the Canon EOS R to be a "great success", despite some slight disappointment that it was closer to a mirrorless version of the Canon EOS 6D Mark II than the more advanced EOS 5D series.

Great image quality; Excellent EVF; Full-frame images in an APS-C like shell

No in-body stabilisation; Not the smallest full-frame CSC

If you're in the market for a 5D Mk IV, but dont want to pay the premium pro price, this is your camera. Fully compatible with the entire (amazing) range of Canon EF lenses plus the stunning new RF native lenses, this camera is versatile, modern and truly worth the price.

The Canon EOS R is a camera we've all been waiting to see for several years now. It's a full frame mirrorless camera with a 30.3MP sensor, 4K video capture, and an all-new lens mount. So how does this new camera and system handle the hype and anticipation that's been building for so long

I am a serious amateur photographer and this is my first full frame camera (previous was canon 80d) Pros: This camera takes sharp pictures with ease. Build feels quality. Touch screen focus, and taking shot, makes taking photos from awkward angles a breeze.

This is a cracking debut on the mirrorless camera market for Canon. It won't be a camera for every professional out there – not enough body controls, frames per second and battery life – but for enthusiasts who simply want the very best image quality, it has to make the shortlist.

Fantastic image quality; Surprising wealth of video modes; Particularly impressive autofocus function

Innovative touch bar is less than innovative; Battery life is underwhelming

I bought this camera 3 weeks ago after much debate on if I should or go with another brand , I will say I am extremely happy that I chose the EOS R . The camera is fantastic in the studio and also with natural light .

Great Features; Great Picture Quality; Lightweight

The EOS R is Canon's first attempt at a full-frame mirrorless camera, and its release heralds an exciting future for the company based around the new RF lens mount. As a stand-alone camera, the EOS R turns in a solid performance that can at times impress yet on aggregate it comes up short.

Capable, customisable, but compromised. The Canon EOS R is a great proof of concept, with fantastic features such as the new Control ring and M-Fn Bar, and offers tangible upgrades to existing EF and EF-S lenses.

Great control customisation; Dual Pixel AF with 5,655 AF positions; Fully articulating screen

No in-body image stabilisation; Cropped 4K video; Single SD card slot
