Canon EOS RP
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?
Lighter and more portable
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.
Full on, full frame sensor
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.
More ways to be creative
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.
Reassuringly traditional
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.
Just keep shooting
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.

Canon EOS RP with EF Adapter and RF 35mm f/1.8 Lens EOSRPPK-AD review
The second album is always tricky, but while the EOS R may have featured a few experimental tracks, the Canon EOS RP is a little more traditional Canon in some respects. It’s also one of the smallest, lightest full-frame cameras available and, more significantly for some, it has the lowest launch...
Canon EOS RP
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
Canon EOS RP Review
A strong full-frame upgrade for those with older Canon DSLRs or a collections of EF lenses, but the EOS RP's older sensor and 4K video limitations mean those starting from scratch should consider an older rival like the Sony A7 II or an APS-C alternative like the Fujifilm X-T3.- 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
Canon EOS RP: A low-cost route into full-frame photography
But while the EOS RP might not be the world's greatest video camera, there are plenty of redeeming features when you're shooting stills. Those great-quality images are the headliner, but its performance, its autofocus accuracy, and the breadth of lenses already available for the platform all make it...- Solid build quality
- Strong stills performance
- Great autofocus
- Falls behind on video features
I really wanted a great walk around still camera that my existing lenses fitted- Bingo! Easy to learn how to use - new Canon RAW files however need separate Adobe software to get them into lightroom and PS.
Canon's second full-frame mirrorless camera, the budget EOS RP, is a disappointment. It has potential as a street photography camera thanks to the small size, but is hampered by an inflexible silent-shooting mode.
Canon EOS RP review: Powerful click, but not pricey
The Canon EOS RP is a good upgrade for those within the Canon ecosystem as well as those looking to pick up their first full frame or mirrorless camera. It is versatile, but not intimidating. It is compact, but not underwhelming.

Excellent camera for landscapes and portraits
I am a long time Canon user and was looking for a lighter and more compact body than my 6D Mk2 to use for travel and as a back up. This camera fits the bill perfectly and this is now my primary camera and the 6D my backup.- Easy to use
- Compact
- Build quality
- Battery life
