Tony & Chelsea Northrup review EVERY Canon RF mirrorless camera, including the Canon EOS R10, Canon R7, Canon R6, Canon R5, Canon R3, Canon R, and Canon RP. Which one is right for depends on your budget and whether you shoot sports & wildlife. 
Наука
I own the R6 and I absolutely love it. Buy the one you can afford and does the things you will use it for. Don't break the bank for no reason.
I bought the r10 back in April as my first more serious camera and I've found it incredible, for videography too using a gimbal. Planning to get an r6 or something like so by 2024.
I just bought the R8, and it's out of this world 🌎 ❤
Still shooting every video for both my RUclips channels with my beloved Canon EOS R, which I bought the day it was released. Even gave up both my GH5 and my Sony A7iii for the switch and I couldnt be happier!!!
Currently selling my Sony ZV1 to purchase the R10 for a vlogging and B cam!
Great comparison vid as always guys!
I have never seen a better comparison video. Exceptionally professional and well presented.
When I come to RUclips to look up about cameras, this is the type of video I love and am impressed with. Not to long but enough for the right information I need. Great presenters, and overall great video.
I have a Canon R6 and I love it! And for those who say "you cant shoot landscapes because the megapixels are too small" are just being snobby, you can shoot anything with anything.
+1 The R6 just makes things less blurry in the landscape if it’s windy, and the tripod weighs less than the Statue of Liberty…
You can also substitute your 8 ball with a bowling ball, but you’ll get thrown out of the bar
Lol I used to shoot with a 20D and nobody ever noticed
@@roodick85 You noticed
@@roodick85 i still keep my 20D on a shelf as a love relic, as it got me so many jobs, was printed in magazines and such. No one noticed 🙄
I decided to buy the RP because this is my first mirrorless camera and I didn't want to invest too much if I don't like it. Also, I can use my EF lenses with the adapter. I wanted the R6 but it's a little steep right now. Anything above the R6 seems like they are more for pros and serious amateurs.
You could actually try the R8 quite nice step up upgrading virtually everything of your RP in the same body.
This does an INCREDIBLE job of showing some important/relevant differences between these cameras for beginners. Well done guys :)
6000$ beginners???
You have a point LOL. They are not ALL $6000 though. Also, there are a lot of cashed-up people around these days, who just spend money on new hobbies hoping that'll make them good at whatever... Let them I say. It floods the market with cheaper second-hand gear when they give up 6mnths later. Which is great for you and me ;P@@P.E.J.
I have been doing photography for 3 years now and I only have a £80 Sony A200. The pictures it takes are still amazing for the price!
My first camera was a SONY Cybershot 5 mega pixels. Had a number of higher resolution point and shoots after, but never thought any were as good as my SONY. Currently shooting on a Fuji XT4, which is pretty incredible.@@jesphillips2193
Thank you! Finally a clear, detailed enough review of the different options to choose from.
Great info!
I bought my R7, RF 100-400, & RF 85 from Milford. Saw you ad for them and gave them a call. Great deal and service!
Awesome thank you!
I got my R7 from them as well when NO ONE had'em!
Would like a video like this but for Sony and Nikon. Very informative to those starting out or looking to see if it is worth upgrading from crop to full frame
Great summary! I use 2x R5 with great lenses like 85 1.2 RF / 28-70 2.0 RF and I LOVE them. But honestly, when it comes to value, the RP is amazing and unbeatable.
I ultimately went with the R6! R5 is a close second but I didn’t find the extra cost to be worth it for my needs.
@@christopherowens8313 The R6 is an excellent camera if it suits your needs! I personally like the R5's higher resolution to have more cropping options without losing quality. The viewfinder is also noticeably better. But it sure comes down to purpose and personal preference 🙂It's like choosing between two super cars.
I started with the Canon rp and the 24-70 2.8 then got the 16-35 2.8 then a 70-300 4.5 and after a bunch of jobs got the R and haven’t felt the need to upgrade yet. The only thing I do wish I had was 120 fps at least at 1920x1080 sometimes 😅
Thank you so much for laying out all the options so plainly! Great segment! Stay safe out there!
By the way, the EF-R adapter works great! I adapted an older 400MM f/5.6 to a friend's R6 and it worked flawlessly! So if you've already got EF glass then just adapt it and you'll be fine.
I love the adapter... I have an R6 and RP, and the only RF glass I own is the kit lens that came with my RP. I shot an airshow this past weekend with the R6 and an adapted Sigma 150-600 C and got some amazing shots.
I purchased the ef/rf nd filter adaptor considering I do outdoor stuff quite often and I had ef glass prior to buying an r6. I loving the results, system works great for me
It sounds great but it doesn't help Canon sell more RF glass if users are happy with adapted EF glass.
@@sosomelodies659 The RF glass is better. Canon have been holding baxk on the EF glass for several years.
@@nordic5490 eventually Canon will make RF glass for the consumer line and it won't be that great while still being pricier than third-party options.
I went for Canon R6 + 24-105 mm F4 L lens. After many years I switched from Canon 550D + 15-85 mm. Now its time to decide to buy or 100-400 F5,6/8 or shorter 70-200 F4 L but with 1.4x or 2.0x gear.
thank you so much for making this video, I have been researching for two weeks and I just cant decide. This video really helped.
I can't believe the R3 has eye following detection for focusing. I believe that stated with Canon way way back with the Film camera the Elan 7e which was my first Canon camera. The "E" stood for eye detection. So cool!
I still have my EOS 50E (same?) here (don't use it). I don't remember how much I used it, but it worked pretty well. But it only needed to cover a limited amount of AF points.
So great reviews and very good explanations, not just tech all, a good mix! I like the way you are and you are amazing : ) Thanks Chelsea and Tony!
Very good informative video Tony ! The R5 is the camera that I was waiting for. It is expensive but since it has been firmwares updated (1.52 + 1.60) it is worth every hard saved penny. This video will help people to decide for sure. Good job !
And now with another amazing firmware update coming soon!
The ef/rf nd filter adaptor was something that interested me in staying with canon being that I already own ef glass and I do alot of outdoor video. So all I needed was a body and adaptor. So I went with the r6, and the 4K video is great. Rf glass seems great but the results I’m getting right now I’m very content with.
Scammer ⬆️
the meike adapter also works great! one ND for all EF glass is amazing
R10 or RP. Or 5D Mark 4, 6D mark 2 or 90D. Add a flash, and 3 quality lenses (walk around, tele, portrait). 2000 dollars and you’re completely set. Many choices possible - I’ve been in the Canon ecosystem since the 450D and have always been happy. I’ve built up my gear over the years, and I’m currently on R5 with RF 28-70, EF 70-300, RF 35 and EF 16-35. My system is complete!
Again, you both never disappoint, Great review and your Honesty is very well appreciated. I have learned so much from your RUclips Channel I can't thank you enough. A dedicated follower and fan for life, Thank you Chelsea and Tony.
Chelsea swings a mean bat. Perfect swing. Thank you for all that canon info, that was a lot of work.
It makes sense to buy full frame lenses to an aps-c camera, because when you later switch to a full frame body, you will still be able to use them.
Well heck! I'm a beginner with a RP, and have been dead-set on upgrading to the R6. Now you've got me thinking I might need to tuck away a little more cash for the R5. Thanks a lot y'all!
living with the RP for few years and i still love it
cant find any other fullframe with the same price point anymore
Excellent review. Two items I would have liked to have learnt more about is how they compare size wise in your hand and for travelling. Also, what's got a flash built in and what doesn't.
Breaking it down very nicely for those considering the Canon system like myself. Not sure I can afford the glass tho.
Thanks for this incredibly useful and practical review. You made it really easy to see and understand the differences in image and video quality.
Thanks for the video but I wish you guys would of mentioned a few more things like which camera have IBIS.
As a current RP owner I also want to mention that the camera does have issues since it's their first and a lot of the new things in the newer RF cameras I wish they would throw some love on the R and RP with simple updates but they don't. The camera has 4k but it's contrast focus and is extremely cropped. At times it just feels more like a purposely built feature rather than a limitation especially since cameras like the m6 mark Ii has it.
I know it's a short video but little details like that makes me really want to upgrade to the R6 or R5.
Thanks for this video really broke down the R line well and now I have a clear idea of what i will consider buying
I know you guys get paid for the sponsorships, but I still wanted to say thank you for having a local business as a sponsor. B&H Photo, Adorama, Amazon might have great deals, but the care that you get from a local business outweighs any perceived savings.(Actually, the national camera companies aren't really that much cheaper, based on comparisons with my local shop.) Plus, if you support the local business long enough, you become a familiar face to the workers, and you tend to get some perks, for example, when the R7 started shipping, my local store got two of them, they called me before others on their wait-list.
Would love to see a similar video reviewing Sony cameras. I've been using an a6500 for a few years. There are so many A7 cameras now, to pick through.
I use the A7RIV and it’s amazing, but could be a little better in low light. Still much better than my a6400. Id probably suggest the A7IV because a little better lowlight performance and still great resolution at 33MP rather than 61 on the RIV. For video the A7RIV is not much of an improvement at all from the a6000 series besides IBIS and full frame. (I know the R lineup is photo centric but it would have been nice to have the option of a higher fps 4K)
This was so useful, thank you so much!
By far one of the best explanations for cannon cameras thank you so much
Helpful Video thank you @ 6:05 you compare R6/R7 IQ. At the Cropped equivalent, seems no difference? My test of the R6 cropped showed IQ degrades more than the R7 on outdoor subjects at 30-50 yds, a
real life sports situation
I’ve been wanting to buy a nice camera for about six months or so, after watching your channel for about a year I decided on the R7. Today I bought it, come home all exited, turn to your channel so I can watch the video you have on tutorials and settings (newbie here) and I see this video 🤦🏽♂️….I’m not even going to look at it just in case…😂BTW my wife and I love the channel.
Great summary. Thanks. I have the R5 and I love it.
I've been carrying my RP around in my backpack while traveling around the world. Love it. One day I'll upgrade to the R6.
I've been using full frame lens on aps-c bodies my whole life starting with the first digital rebel and Ive had no problem. Actually I love the range I get from using FF lens on crop bodies. The advantage is that you can use your lens on both bodies but if you have aps-c lens, you can't use them on a full frame body.
Think the R7 is way better than just a camera for birds.
Note that her favorite was the RP with the 24-240. And they had 6 of them in studio. What does that say? That's why I purchased the RP with the 24-240. Read another review that stated the RP was basically a miniaturized 5D MkII. Put 400K photos on one of those. And music videos. It's still going with an IAIA student. Just love having a nearly "pocket" MkII. Photos with the RP24-240 combo are surprisingly good. Very workable in post or even SNAPSEED. Have also seen reviews stating the combo is a well kept secret. Certainly not as perfect as a new 5D but it's so small and tidy. If knowing what one is doing, gets the job done quite well.
I am currently shooting with the Olympus OM-1 and haven't been happy with low light results when shooting nightscapes. I have been thinking of going back to full-frame (former Nikon shooter). I have been leaning towards Canon for the lens line up, design and build quality. I have rented the R5, the Sony A7R III and IV and a few of the Fuji cameras. I shied away from Nikon because I don't like the design of the cameras and they seem to be the slowest at bringing new lenses to market. I shoot mostly birds, wildlife and travel photos. I have been trying to decide between buying a RP to test the waters with the 16mm, 50mm, 24-105mm and 100-400mm STM lenses or just going with the R6 with the same lenses. At this point I would likely pre-order the R6 II. Any suggestions? PS. I know Sony has the best selection of lenses but I just couldn't bring myself to enjoy shooting with the A7 series cameras. I loved the Fuji shooting experience but feel if I am going to leave M4/3 I should go back to FF and not APS-C. If anyone has a good argument why I should reconsider that I welcome reading it. Thanks all.
I don't know if it's really fair to include the kit lenses, because when I had a 60D, I used regular EF lenses, frequently borrowing my dad's for his full frame camera, and they work just fine. I used a 100-400 with the 60D for wildlife photos, and it was nice to have the extra crop without having to crop it after transferring photos. Besides, if you're getting into photography and want to continue and get into it more, it's nice to have lenses that work on both. Sigma makes some great EF lenses that work fine with the adapter, and are a bit more affordable than Canon, as well as having more diverse offerings. I have the R and their lenses are pretty on part with the Canon L series lenses I've used. I ordered the R7, so I'll see how that goes. I probably wouldn't use the 50 on it, but I have a feeling that the 150-600 would be great on a crop sensor for getting pics of the moon. I know some people are like "no, you have to buy Canon L lenses for Canon cameras, they work the best!" But comparing the RF 50 1.2 to the Sigma 50 1.4, the images are exactly the same. Don't limit yourself to one brand, or one line of lenses, there are some great options. I got my Sigma 50mm used too, so if you have a local store, just walk in with your camera and an adapter, and see what they have secondhand. Sigma does have some APS-C lenses too, so if you have the adapter, go for it.
One thing nice about getting the original R is that it came with a bunch of extras, including a lens adapter. I use it maybe half the time I'm taking photos, and it's great. It will be interesting to compare the R and R7, as there's been a lot of technological advancement in that time. I might take it to the store in person (I'm in Canada, so we have Henry's and the staff are fantastic) and then try some different lenses or comparisons. I need to get more memory cards since the R7 takes two cards, and for shooting 4K, you pretty much need to have UHS-II cards, so I'd like to get a matching set.
I'm currently a DSLR user, is it a good time to go for the R6 when its kind of due for an upgrade ? Or should i wait for an R6 Mark2 which might come out ?
Great video, I have an RP and its amazing suits all my needs.
Great presentation but there is no third-party glass for the series and too few budget options from Canon.
I miss Milford Camera... Jesse does awesome classes and is outstanding with his advice.
Would like to see a comparison of the R7 and R5 image quality with the same L glass. I'm suspecting that Canon will eventually have a full frame sensor that is the same pixel density as the R7. A cropped in image of the R5 to match the image size of the R7 might give that comparison with a lens that can resolve it.
Hey, i have a question regarding camera choice and i cant really solve it myself and hoped you may be able to help me with all the experience you have. Im kinda stuck in my decision between the R5, R3, Z9 and A1. I havent invested im any ecosystem yet and price isnt a deciding point here. I think i mainly want to take wildlife pictures, but may want to dip into sports in the future. Additionally all things family picture related. Are 24MP of the R3 enough to print big family pictures? Is the better ISO of the R3 relevant? All these question made it impossible for me to get to a well thought through conclusion. But maybe you can help me with that. Thank you and great content as always!
Do the R5 & R6 cameras give you the ability to bluetooth your photos directly from you camera to an iPhone to then post on Instagram or other social media platforms? Or are the files too large and you must make them smaller in a photo editor software?
Thank you for the tips. What’s your workflow to minimize .CR3 noise in LR ? Computer time drives me nuts.
This is the best buying guide on these. Thank you!
I think about upgrading to the mirrorless canon camera and I trying to choose between r6m2 and r5 (maybe it will be better waiting for r5m2). But my question is what camera, r6m2 or r5, will be better for underwater photography?
I'm trying to decide between r7 and r. I do mostly portraits however I do like to catch some action with my kiddos. WHich would you recommend?
Thank you for all the recommendations and info.
Finalllyyyyyy someone was smart enough to create a video like this! Sooo insightful! 👏🏻 👍🏻👍🏻😀😀
I have the EOS-R. Shot mainly my son’s soccer matches, jujitsu, wildlife and cityscape on vacation. What your be your recommendation on another camera to add?
Thank you for this review, very educative. which of these cameras would you recommended for event photography?
When I wanted to move from the 70D to full frame, I chose the RP instead of the 6DII or the R. Paired with RF "L" glass, I get beautiful landscape images. The low-light performance does leave something to be desired, though. I will be moving to the R5 when/if prices come down.
I don’t want to disappoint you but the 80d still after almost 5 years is still expensive AF so I’m expecting the r5 to hold its price for a long long time
@@glpro2696 I am in no rush. The RP serves me well for landscape photography.
@@rlfisher trust me you’ve made the right choice ! The only disadvantage is the small battery but other than that it’s the best for the price
@@glpro2696 Absolutely. I actually carry 2 Canon and 2 OEM batteries for cold weather. Another advantage is, with the L-bracket off and a fixed 35 or 59-ish lens, it is a dandy carry-around camera.
Love my 70D. Years later it still holds up tbh. But it is time for full frame. Almost went R6 but need me some sigma and tamron; A7iv it is
excellent review I have the EOSR and I’m completely happy with my purchase.
I have my mind already set for the Canon R5. I will be renting one for a week to try out in a football game and a high school reunion photoshoot to try before buying. I also have to rent out the EF to EOS R adapter since I already have the 24-70mm F/2.8, 70-200mm F/2.8 and the Sigma 50mm F/1.4 Art lens. I also like the Clog 3 already built in the camera for video at 4K/120fps. Even though it can record at 8K I never record beyond 4K. It's just too big for post production. As of now I have the Canon 5D Mk IV.
This is such a great video. Thank you for breaking this down!
Fantastic tutorial and info. Well done. Subscribed!!
Is there a wiser choice than buying two? RP for family/travel and R10 for motorsport?
Awesome video with great, well thought out info. “In the dugout, where I always sat as an athlete.” 🤣😂🤣 Had me rolling! Thanks again, great job.
Great video thanks, which of the entry level mirrorless canon’s would you recommend if Dog agility was the main subject matter?
Can u help me to choose for buying my first camera? Which is good for taking pictures and videos with a really good quality also when it comes to low light shoot (night) I have this 3 options the Canon 90d/Eos R7/ Eos R. Which one should I go on? Thankyou!
great video, thanks guys! what would you reccomend for macro? i am looking at R5, but wonder if that overkill for macro niche
Love this channel. You guys truly rock!!!!
The huge game changer was Tamron announcing it will make the 70-300mm zoom lens (same one as the Sony mount). That’s something I was looking forward to, and might make me get a Z6.
Canon doesn’t make one in RF mount. The EF 70-300mm was discontinued, and a used one is a bit expensive.
I also agree, however i also think that NIkon(or canon or Sony) should make a decent 500$ kit. This gets people in and keeps you on the brand.
I have a few L series EF lenses (70-200) and the (17-40) My sports subjects have all grown up and got married. I basically need something to take interior kitchen, baths, etc. for my cabinet work. My last camera was the 20D which is not full framed. I'm thinking the EOS RP with the 17-40 l series lens would be good to achieve website photos without breaking the bank and still be able to get full use out of my lenses....mainly the wide 17mm to get a full wall in the shot. My 20d is so ancient the pixels weren't that high and I could never get full use out of the wide angle L lens. Agree?
When I started shooting wedding videos, I relied on sigma glass for my second and third cameras. I purchased Canon lenses for my main, but could not afford or needed expensive lenses for my two other angles.
I have a question all my lenses are L series EF lenses. So i do not plan on buying any RF lenses anytime soon. what camera would be a better choice for these lenses the R5 or the R7. I don't know if a bigger sensor or a cropped sensor would work better with the lens adapter? Thanks
Fantastic review and information on camera options Thank you very useful
God....im still using my T2i. Thats the inly camera i have. Im kind of stuck having to like it even with all this increduble new tech out there. Wishing you all the best with all the new tech
What would you recommend for Portrait and Event Photography, I have a T8i now which i love, but i want better autofocus and low-light, im starting to do more video ( yes because of Reels) The Primary lenses i use are Sigma 35 1.4, Sigma 135 1.8, and 24-70 2.8 ll...Any Responses Are welcomed :)
Thanks for the excellent info! But, that is the worst golf swing 9:45! hahaha!
Thanks! This was really helpful! No mention of the video specs on the R and RP though? I keep getting conflicting information about their video capabilities. I'd get an R5 if I could, but that's highly unlikely. So, it's looking like an R6 is the best option for me....though still a ways off. 🤔 Haha, holy crap I can't believe the sound of the R3 in burst mode... We've sure come a long way since my old man's Nikon and its MD-11! 🤣
I started with a Canon digital Rebel my first real lenses were Tamron. I have a combination of Canon and Sigma lenses now, along with a 5D mk III, 5D mk II, and a 7D converted to shoot infrared. I supposed I will eventually need to move to mirrorless, but will resist as long as I can because I don't want to buy all new gear and sell what I have at a reduced value. If Canon does not allow third party lenses on their mirrorless when I am ready to switch, then I am unlikely to stay with the brand. Mind you, I have also helped five friends start out with their first DSLRs, and they are all on Canon.
I missed this when it first came out. Thanks for pointing out that you had covered Canon. Now I’m looking ahead to seeing one on the Nikon lineup.
Hey, i wonder if you have any thoughts on the MBA m2 and if it's something you plan to review?
You can just get the adaptor and use the whole EF mount. They are amazing lenses and third party options 🤷🏽♂️
Good video, I have the RP and L glass but in the future I want the R5.
appreciate your adherence to 4k/60.. looks sooo good
Thank you for this useful video. Wondering if I should go for a R6 Mark 2 or R5 . Heard R6 mark 2 has a better autofocus than R5 and better light performance. I primarily shoot wildlife and family photos.
Thank you for always sharing all the best content and awesome tips 👌👍🤗
Thank you both for another very helpful vid!
I am finally considering g upgrading my main working body from 2006 (5D Mk ll). Your comments have steered me in the direction of the R5, although that is not written in stone yet.
Here is my question: I have been using these 3 perfectly good (and heavier) canon lens….all being EF L USM models: 16-35 2.8…..24-105 1:4…..70-200 1:2.8.
Are these lenses compatible with the R5, and the rest? Are there any penalties full frame to full frame?
Thank you very much indeed!
I can't decide wether to buy Canon R7 or the RP or the R. I'm an one-person agency, so I take photos, videos and all that stuff for marketing purposes. From time to time I shoot some photos indoors but my SL3 is not as good as I wanted it to be in low light enviroments, and make me think about buying a fullframe over the R7 (I think the R7 is the best bang for my buck, but unfortunately it's APS-C)
So between the RP and the R5, which one would be better for landscape photography?
This video was great!!! Thanks
I'm looking to upgrade and was wondering which affordabke camera body would be good for product photography and fashion photography/portraits? Any thoughts?
I was thinking of saving up and upgrading to the r5 I’m a landscape and hockey photographer would this be a good add?
Question for an intermediate level fashion photography is the Canon Eos R any good ?
Thanks for explaining ☺️ I understand ❤️
I've got a 7d, I want to upgrade to mirrorless, I'm not sure if I should stick to canon or go sony and use after market lens etc
From someone who has used the Eye Focus on the R3 - I can absolutely assure you that it’s not gimmicky.
It’s fricken awesome. It follows faster than my brain can possibly comprehend.
I look. I press the shutter. Perfection.
It was pretty decent on the EOS 3 film camera 30 years ago. I've missed that. Would be really beneficial for side shots on a stage with multiple people.
Many people like calling things gimmick because they don't use it or see its value.
In all honest do you rely and trust the feature in the moment? Tony said the feature needs to be calibrated often, has that been your experience?
@@jamesfoureight9879 I trust it implicitly for a full 14-hour wedding day.
I find my outside and indoor profiles work well for most scenarios and only sometimes need to do a nighttime calibration for dance-floor shots.
I may calibrate 2-3 times during that 14-hour period at the absolute most.
It’s honestly incredible.
Scammer ⬆️
I can imagine Tony is throttling some frustration discussing this😂 I speak with tons of barbers and hairstylists who want to take haircut photos (still subject in a well lit salon), and across the board I’m like “get an EOS RP and the most expensive 85mm you can afford” but about half the time they come back with something like “I got an M6ii (or 90D)with a kit lens, the guy at Best Buy said it’s better!”
I would like to get R with RF24-105 F4. But R doesn't have IBIS. Is this really matter if all my lenses have IS and body doesn't? Otherwise I'm looking at R6 with IBIS and better focus features.
Killer well rounded review!
I own an RP body. Fully satisfied. The only caveat is battery life. Want to buy the RP, invest on an extra battery too. Amazing photos on kit lenses too.
