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 review
The Canon EOS RP is the second full-frame mirrorless camera launched by the veteran camera company. While the EOS R was met with a lukewarm reception, the EOS RP aims to aggressively target sales of other brands by providing it a very attractive price.- Good price
- Small and light (for full-frame
- Adaptor bundled for your older lenses
- Small body can feel unbalanced
- 4K video limitations
- No weather-sealing
Canon EOS RP review: Full-frame mirrorless goes affordable
The RP is the step-down model to the EOS R, but we find the more affordable camera a better handler on account of its layout and size. However, limited battery life, some mis-balanced issues when using larger lenses, and 4K crop in video capture are all niggling issues.- Great camera for the price
- Solid AF and metering performance
- Top noise control in high ISO
- Touchscreen control
- Poor battery life
- Cropped 4K capture
- Smaller body and grip - some lenses aren't well balanced
- Current lack of affordable lenses

Canon EOS RP review
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.
Canon EOS RP review
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
Canon EOS RP Digital SLR Camera Body - Brand New review
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.

That is a very small list of niggles to be concerned with, and overall, the EOS R8 delivers a solid little camera with a full-frame sensor. Enthusiasts and pros alike, if you’re looking for a compact full-frame body, the EOS R8 is a winner.- Ease to use, Feels great in the hands, Full-frame sensor, Versatile controls, Vari-angle touch screen is a great inclusion, Support for 4K video
- Can sometimes be slow, Doesn't charge on all Type C connections
