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

Canon seem to be gunning for those who want all the glitz and glamour of a full-frame mirrorless camera on a budget. We’re impressed that by making very clever compromises from the EOS R, this little rock star packs a hell of a punch with clever software tricks, an incredible user interface so that really anyone can pick it up and work out what to do. Where a camera of this spec might’ve intimidated a newbie, the minimal design, excellent touch screen, WiFi and Bluetooth compatibility, it’s no longer something reserved for camera boffins. For the accessibility and affordability, we're sold.
Pros:
  • Compact and relatively light for full frame
  • Affordable
  • Brilliant Autofocus
  • Effective touchscreen
Cons:
  • Only crop 4k video
  • Battery life could be better
  • No sensor-based image stabilisation

Incredible value, great upgrade from Rebels

This was my first full frame camera, as well as my first mirrorless camera. Coming from a Canon rebel camera, I immediately found a difference in usability and photo quality from my rebel 77D. I found it easier to get good results using the electronic viewfinder and excellent autofocus system.

The best camera for a jpeg shooter like i am ... Dynamic range is crap Who cares when shooting jpeg! Just take advantage of EVF and nail the exposure on your main subject ... if the contrast of the scene is too high, just be creative and use shadows or clipped sky at your advantage Aside of this,...

Great full frame for casual photographer!

I was looking for an upgrade to my trusty 5D mkII and didn't want to reinvest in lenses. The EOS RP was the right fit for me and it was surprisingly affordable when paired with one of Canon's promotions (I had the bonus RF 35mm lens). The R was a bit too expensive given my 'casual' use-case. The EOS RP matches or beats the 5D mk II in every way. Given the 5DmkII was used by professionals/wedding photographers back in it's hey-day, you won't be lacking in 'capability' for good still photos. Awesome features I appreciate in the RP as an 'stills-only' upgrader: - Dual Pixel AF is amazing - no more focus hunting (or lack of focus lock) in low light. This thing can focus fast in barely lit rooms! (My biggest reason for upgrading - fear of missing shots of my newborn) - EVF is pretty handy -> What you see is what you get, so I'm not re-taking shots from my poor guesswork in scenes with subjects in front of bright backlighting. - Touch Screen makes navigating menus much nicer - als
