Canon EOS R review
Perhaps it’s something to do with the fact that we’ve been waiting what feels like a heck of a long time for Canon to come up with the goods and produce a full-frame mirrorless, but we can’t help but be just a little underwhelmed by the Canon EOS R. While it produces excellent images, some aspects of the handling leave a little to be desired, and there’s nothing here that will really blow you away. Making the decision to go for a single, SD card slot is going to disappoint quite a few, while cropped 4K video is likely to put off videographers. Overall, the EOS R feels a little bit like proof that Canon is listening and working to produce mirrorless models. It seems likely that a more advanced model is in the works for professionals, while perhaps something cheaper and more basic will also be released along the line too - for now the EOS R occupies a sort of no-mans-land. It’ll be interesting to see how many Canon users jump ship to this, and whether it can claw any back from those who may have already bailed and gone to Sony - watch this space.
