This is a HANDS ON Preview of the Canon EOS RP Full Frame mirrorless camera. I had a chance to spend a day using a full production camera with final firmware while in New Orleans.

I did not see Canon unleashing a $1,299 full frame mirrorless camera on the world. Did they cripple some of the features, yes, but I loved the camera for stills. Put good RF glass on it and you’re good to go.

A: "I want this camera!"
B: "Stay calm! The men with the white coats are coming soon!"
can anyone tell me, if canon plan on releasing a version that will be better than the Eos R this year ?
Interesting times. Canon offer the lowest bar in mirrorless tech, but are the most intriguing system going forward. #thatRglass
The grip sounds like a f### up on design size.
Relax everyone. Canons gonna get there money via firmware. $100.00 24P $100.00 Auto focus. Wallah $1500.00 camera. Canon won again. Features are there just turned off.
I don't care about video in this camera. When I shoot video I use a video camera. They should produce a RP version without video and instead add more still camera features and possibly keep it at the same price point. That said I like this camera very much.
Everyone is praising this camera for being so cheap, yet overlook the fact that you will have to buy all new glass to use it and get infinite focus. I will pass thank you.
But will it be a good upgrade from my 8 years old 600D? 🙂
Outstanding review Jared and I appreciate how you had a balanced view of its Pros and cons. Try not to discourage companies from adding flippy screens though, I'm not a vlogger but there are so many times I'm sitting in front of my Lumix G7 and I'm thankful that not only can I frame myself but see my audio levels and things like that.
This will be a historic camera. I say this because I'm sure this full-frame will go to more places than any full-frame before it.
No 1080p at 24fps. Why? No thanks!
The video quality is fantastic as this review was shot with the new Canon RP. Now there a few quibbles on some things on this camera, but overall you are getting a fine FF camera for the price of $1299. in a compact body. I will be selling my 77D and upgrading to it, and keeping my extra batteries as these are the same. The RP is much better than the 6D2 as well in lots of features. Other people stop complaining if you want more camera buy the R camera instead.
Fyi, GO PRO HERO 7 now only $370 ◾️https://amzn.to/2E1mJpD
what kinda rich person do you have to be to buy a camera over $1,000 (an insanely expensive price for MOST working people in this country) just for photos? And why would you get this "entry level" joint if you have the money? I bought a used t51 for $400 I had t save crazy for and use credit Im still paying back…that camera seems better to me than this. Capitalism would be some funny shit if it wasnt so damn horrific
It would be nice to put up CR3 files too for those lucky peoples who uses Capture One 😉
Wow…this seems to be a camera for me… Canon 6D mk 1 is on my wishlist, because it just suits me (on the contrary to the 6D Mk2, it has a horrible focuspoints system…) This camera is more interesting I guess, however Canon is witholding some features.. no silent shooting in Manual?? very slow FPS 🙁 That feels like pestering the buyer who doesn't want to / cannot spend much money.
Great handson review Jared, thanks!
Ahhhh. Do I upgrade from a original 7D or wait…… or just go with the m5/m6?
Brendan Van Son raved about your reviews on this camera
Sony A7ii Full frame $800 boom
So will my Sigma 24-70, 2.8 DG lens work on this camera or the R with the mount adapter? Lens is like 4 or 5 years old.
Thanks Jared. I appreciate the Hands on preview. I especially appreciate the RAW files I was able to download and put them through LightRoom. I was able to push & pull them pretty far in post. I loved the image examples of ISO levels. The files can do exactly what I need them to do. I bought 2 of RP's last Wednesday. It was nice to get my hands on the RAW's so early. Just food for thought. As we all know. Camera bodies are just a tool in the tool bag. This camera body is not just for beginners. This camera body is also for Canon users with different types of work. Some projects do not need big files. Sometimes I am opening up 10-15 layers or more in photoshop form 1 composition. So if I have a project that I can use this camera body on, I will. Thanks Again Jared.
Everyone and I mean everyone has been slamming this camera. Of course, they're mostly video nerds. What I appreciate with this overview Jared is you talking about this camera from the perspective of actual PHOTOGRAPHY. That said, I would buy it when I can get a 5D Mark II for under $500 or a Panasonic G9 at $1,100 on eBay or a Panasonic GH5 for video use for under $1,500.
I'm not a Sony shooter so I can't speak to their cameras. Having an inexpensive mirrorless full-frame is not necessary for photography. And most of the full-frame mirrorless for video isn't giving you "full" 4K without some caveats anyway.
U r so great
