The mirrorless Canon EOS RP comes from the same stable as the highly-acclaimed EOS R. Will it prove to be as much of a thoroughbred as the original?
The EOS RP’s body weighs just 440g, so it's more than 20% lighter than the original EOS R. It's also noticeably smaller in size, making it a compact and highly portable model that feels great in your hand.
The Canon-developed full frame CMOS sensor gives you full on image quality, certainly more impressive than APS-C or Micro Four Thirds sensors. Full frame sensors eliminate the crop factor caused by smaller sensors, so your wide-angle lenses can reach their full potential.
One of the biggest selling points of the EOS RP is the wide range of creative shooting modes, including extra automatic modes and built-in feature guides. Fully automatic, semi-automatic and manual shooting modes let you choose your level of control.
In amongst all that is new in the EOS RP is a traditional EOS mode dial, which makes it easier for many of us who are moving from a DSLR to a mirrorless camera system.
The EOS RP mirrorless camera, because of its compact and lightweight design, uses a smaller LPE17 battery. Don't be fooled into thinking this equals a lack of power; you still get 250 shots per charge when using the EVF.

While it's a shame that picture and sound quality haven't been upgraded, the iPhone 13 was great in these regards and the iPhone 14 is, too Excellent display Admirable headphone performance Solid build quality No upgrades to picture or sound Familiar design Notch is still present
These past six months have been some of the most eventual in recent memory when it comes to new photography kit. With three new mirrorless systems, all bearing full-frame fruits, a market that Sony has up until now had (almost) had to itself is now set to become a whole lot more vibrant.
Compact and light body; Very good value for money; Generous buffer - better than quoted; Very good AF performance; Responsive touchscreen
Limited native lens selection; Rolling shutter and crop in 4K video; Slightly sensitive metering system; No sensor-based image stabilization; Underwhelming battery life; Silent shooting very limited
The SRP for Canon EOS RP body is RM 5,999 of which I think is very high a price tag to command for a body as such. As you can see I didn’t touch on matters like 4K and the various complaints you probably seen from other reviews. I’d say case by case, and depends on what you need.
More like an iPhone 13S. The generational upgrades for the iPhone 14 are limited to a few subtle changes. At the same time, however, the base price climbs to 800 USD, while the only true innovation happens inside the iPhone 14 Pro series.
excellent OLED display, dust- and waterproof, fast Wi-Fi, wide range of supported frequencies, great camera, very fast performance, good battery life
display limited to 60 Hz, charging rate limited to 20 watts, no macro lens, wide notch
The Canon EOS RP's specifications aren't exactly exciting, but don't let that fool you - it's a likable little camera with engaging controls, good build quality and it produces excellent JPEGs. Of course, the Raw files are noisier and aren't as malleable as some more contemporary full-frame cameras, but for the target audience, that won't likely be a deal breaker. For those users looking for a friendly way to get into full-frame imaging, the EOS RP is an excellent option.
Newer users getting into full-frame for the first time, existing Canon users looking for a second camera body, anyone looking for a travel-friendly full-frame camera for casual use.;
Those looking to shoot high quality video, power users who want the most out of their Raw files, and those who routinely shoot fast action and need faster burst speeds.;
The brand new EOS RP is Canon's second ever 35mm full-frame mirrorless camera. The Canon EOS RP has a 26.2 megapixel CMOS sensor, DIGIC 8 image processor, 4K UHD 25/24p video recording in 8-bit 4:2:2, a touch-screen interface, 4,779-point Dual Pixel CMOS AF System that can focus as low as -5EV, ISO...
The RP doesn't quite earn Editors' Choice marks, but it still gets a strong recommendation. Its form factor and price are big reasons. But you also can't discount the compatibility with Canon flashes and (with an adapter) SLR lenses, which matter to photographers invested in the Canon system.
Compact body with full-frame sensor; Vari-angle LCD; Integrated EVF; Quick, accurate autofocus; Macro stacking and time-lapse tools; Wi-Fi; Attractive price
Small EVF; Low-cost native lenses not available yet; Inconsistent face and eye detection; 4K video suffers from heavy crop; Sensor shows limited dynamic range; Small battery; No built-in flash
The EOS RP is Canon's smallest, lightest and most affordable full-frame camera so far. In many ways, it's like a mirrorless version of Canon's 6D Mark II DSLR. That camera proved popular with amateur snappers looking to step up from an APS-C camera to full-frame shooting without needing to...
Shoots excellent JPEGs; Works well with EF lenses via bundled adaptor; Small and light for a full-frame camera; Very easy to use
Feels a little unbalanced with larger lenses; Doesn't have in-body image stabilisation; Average battery life
