Amy travels to the Port of Newhaven and braves some serious waves as she tests the Canon EOS RP. This full-frame mirrorless camera presents a smaller, lighter and cheaper alternative to the imaging giant’s first full-frame mirrorless camera, the EOS R.
TL;DW: Too lazy to watch the full review? Skip to 12:14 for a snappy overview!
The Canon EOS RP features a 26.2MP sensor, impressive low-light capabilities and Canon’s coveted Dual Pixel AF. It’s roughly 175g lighter than its larger counterpart and is able to record 4K UHD.

is it your light that gives the camera a purple glow, or is the rp in different colors ? 😮 still trying to figure out what to buy next week. 5dmk4 or rp. upgrading from 80D 🙂
There's no in-body stabilization I thought on the video at 13:30 you said it had in-body stabilization that's not correct you should take that out as soon as possible that's misleading
Lovely video, everything I was looking for and more, you have a new sub from me, thank you!
WEX do fantastic video reviews, I love the delivery and accessibility of the presenter, she is great, But it’s factually incorrect here and I think it’s important, It doesn’t have 5 Axis in body stabilisation , many Canon lenses have it and there electronic compensation for video. but it’s not the same as a mechanical system. I think you should redo the summary section at the end.
It has the sensor of the 6Dii, the question is does it also have the same DR?
Nice paid infomercial
I would love to buy this as a lightweight carry out second body alongside my 6d2. I'm confident the Image quality will be great and I like the digic 8 feature set. However my subjects move at 200 feet per second and it looks like it has the familiar mirrorless failpoint where continuous shooting in servo focus once again can't cope and at worst will fail to find first frame focus before the shot is lost. Even my 15 year old 1Dmk2 bought for next to nowt can cope with servo AF at 9.5fps outshooting all my modern bodies. Canon also promised agressive pricing which they have delivered on in the states but as usual not in the UK. This is a dumbed down 6D2 for only £96 less. Given the reduced feature set it's a £999 – £1099 camera.
Canon will never put IBIS on a mid range camera. I highly doubt IBIS capability on a mid range system and if that EOS RP has IBIS? it probably is the only one or you have a broken sensor mount so the sensor is moving around and about? At that price point, the XT-30 offers move value and features.
Would you recommend this over the 6d ii??
Video features is more and more important, especially for family life and holidays. And this is a bit of crap compared to competition. You have been too enthusiastic about the camera. It's still 400-500 more than A6400 and XT-30 and unless you adapt ef lenses you'll be spending a lot for lenses. All in the name of full frame? Not convinced.
To add to the title: But it lacks 24fps in 1080p so it is useless for serious videographers
I'll stick with my 5D Mk iv thank you
What 5-axis in-body IS are you talking about ??? You spliced in audio from another camera review??
*There’s no IBIS. It’s electronic stabilization. Basically the processor does an in-body digital stabilization in real time.*💯👊🏽❤️
Did you guys see that in timeline 6:55 –6:59, it drift off for a bit also why use the black backdrop? don't you think it would have been a better test if there was no black backdrop and test it with the white instead? I think The black backdrop is cheating and now fully showing that dual pixel AF on this sensor.
those waves look amazing
How much did Canon pay you for this?
what about gps – can u synchronise the gps through an app ?
nice review 🙂
Great job!
RP is marketed more towards the British. EOS…Regular Pronunciation.
…Americans won't get that.
Canon…WHY?
Great Video! Would you steer someone towards this or a 6D Mark ll?
Buy a G9. Learn to use it. Destroy Canon shooters for the next 5 years…maybe 10
There is DPAF in 1080p. Contrast only in 4k
I love to see you dancing for AF! 😉 Thanks for this helpful video! Like it!
But it doesn’t really have IBIS….good comparison with APSC system though since the sensor used (6D2) is competitive with that category not proper full frame (dynamic range, high iso performance).
You mention the DPAF in video is not as good as the EOS R, that is because there is no DPAF in video mode on the RP, only contrast based focus.
This is still a big camera/lens combo. I'll stay with cropped sensors as this is waaay too big for travel and street photography.
I think A6400 will RiP the RP apart.
Hi. What will be the shutter release resource?
Typical Canon, give as little as possible to charge as much as possible. Much better options out there at the price point.
I would be curius how the focusing compares in video and photos to the sony a6400 (and overall image quality)
you keep saying it has 5-axis in-body IS but it doesnt. neither the EOS R or RP has IBIS.
This video was shot on which camera?
Seems promising.
