Canon EOS RP Camera Review

The Canon EOS RP is a full-frame mirrorless camera. It offers excellent image quality, as it keeps noise and graininess to a minimum even when shooting in dark environments at high ISO levels. It also has an effective autofocus system for photography and is quite comfortable to use, with an intuitive menu system. Unfortunately, its battery life is quite short, so it's not a great fit for extended shooting sessions. Its maximum shooting speed is also quite slow, so it isn't the best option for capturing still images of fast-moving subjects. Recording capability in 4k is also quite limited, as it incurs a heavy crop and can't record at high frame rates.

Our Verdict

The Canon RP is good for travel photography. It offers excellent image quality, even in low light, and can achieve fairly extended shutter speeds, allowing for complex long-exposure photos. It also has an effective autofocus system that can track subjects reliably and quickly. Compared to point-and-shoot cameras, it's only passably portable, but offers great ergonomics, as even users with large hands should find it comfortable to use. Unfortunately, it has a short battery life, so you may want to purchase an extra battery if you plan on using it for extended periods.

• Amazingly comfortable to use.
• Impressive autofocus performance.
• Excellent image quality.
• Relatively bulky design.
• Short battery life.

The Canon RP is good for landscape photography. Images are sharp and mostly free of noise, even when you step up its ISO setting to compensate for poor lighting conditions. It also feels quite sturdy and is comfortable to use, though it isn't as easy to carry around on a hike compared to a phone camera or a point-and-shoot. It has a sharp touchscreen that's bright enough to be seen even under direct sunlight.

• Fully-articulated screen is bright and can be seen under direct sunlight.

The Canon RP is okay for sports and wildlife photography. Its slow maximum shooting speed makes it a challenge to capture clear photos of fast-moving subjects. Also, since you can't shoot continuously in the camera's silent shooting mode, you may find it hard to capture photos of skittish wildlife. Thankfully, it's fitted with a quick and consistent autofocus system and offers great image quality, even in dimly-lit environments. It's also decently well-built and amazingly comfortable to use.

• Slow continuous shooting speed.

The Canon RP has good RAW image quality. It does a good job of managing noise in low light situations, though it doesn't perform as well in that regard as higher-end full-frame models. Its high-resolution sensor captures images with plenty of fine detail, even when punching in. However, its dynamic range is underwhelming. It can still capture a reasonably wide range of detail, but it falls short of newer full-frame sensors.

• Good noise handling.
• High resolution.
• Dynamic range is relatively limited.

The Canon RP is very good for vlogging. Since its screen is fully articulated, you can see what you're recording even when the camera is pointed at you. As long as you shoot in FHD, the camera does a great job of smoothing out camera shake if you're recording handheld video, and its autofocus system should have no issue tracking your face. Unfortunately, recording in 4k incurs a very heavy crop and results in a severe decrease in video stabilization performance as well as the autofocus' face-tracking capability.

• Impressive overall video stabilization performance.
• Decent video quality in FHD and 4k.
• Heavy crop in 4k recording.

The Canon RP is decent for studio video. Video quality is decently sharp and fairly low in noise whether you record in FHD or 4k, though recording in the latter does result in a severe crop that cuts out many details around the borders of the frame as well as a drop in autofocus subject-tracking consistency. There's a wide variety of inputs and outputs on the camera that let you connect an auxiliary mic, headphones, and an external recorder, though there's no room for a second SD card in case you run out of space while recording.

• Easy-to-use menu system.
• Wide variety of inputs and outputs.
• Only one SD card slot.

The Canon RP isn't designed for action video. While it's smaller than conventional DSLR cameras, it's still too bulky to be mounted on a helmet or chest rig. It also doesn't offer any high-speed frame rate options to create smooth slow-motion video in 4k or FHD. That said, it does a great job of smoothing out camera shake in FHD and has a decently sturdy construction.

• No support for recording at high-speed frame rates.
• 7.7 Travel Photography
• 7.8 Landscape Photography
• 6.7 Sport & Wildlife Photography
• 7.6 Raw Photo Performance
• 7.9 Vlogging
• 7.5 Studio Video
• 3.7 Action Video

Differences Between Sizes And Variants

The Canon EOS RP is only available in one color variant: 'Black', and you can see its label here . We tested it with the Canon RF 24-105mm f/4-7.1 IS STM lens. While it can be purchased with other lenses, like the RF 24-240mm F4-6.3 IS USM lens, we haven't tested its performance in any other configuration. You can also purchase its body individually.

If you come across a different variant of the Canon EOS RP, let us know in the discussions so we can update our review.

Compared To Other Cameras

The Canon EOS R8 is very similar to the Canon EOS RP in design and build quality. However, the R8 has a different sensor and new processor that give it an edge in image and video quality. It also has a better autofocus system, faster e-shutter burst shooting, better internal video recording capability, and more video frame rate options. 

The Canon EOS RP and Canon EOS R10 are both lower mid-range/entry-level cameras but with different design briefs and differing intended use cases. The older RP has a higher-resolution full-frame sensor that produces better image sharpness and superior noise-handling capability, making it a better option for still photography, especially in low light. That said, the R10 holds a wide range of other advantages. It feels better-built, offers superior battery life from the same LP-E17 battery, and has a significantly faster max shooting speed, though admittedly with a pretty small image buffer. The R10 is a much better option for video work, too: it supports 10-bit 4:2:2 recording when using the HDR PQ profile, can record uncropped 4k video at up to 30 fps or cropped 4k video at 60 fps, and offers superior autofocus tracking performance.

The Canon EOS R is better overall than the Canon EOS RP. It's a more premium camera with better build quality, including weather-sealing, a higher-resolution electronic viewfinder, and a higher-resolution sensor, not to mention a significantly longer battery life and slightly quicker burst shooting. The RP is a much more portable full-frame camera, if that's a priority, and still captures excellent image quality. Both cameras also use the same lens mount, and lenses will have a much bigger impact on your photography, so the best option between these two will be whichever one suits your budget and ergonomic preferences.

The Nikon Z 5 is better than the Canon EOS RP. Both are entry-level full-frame cameras, but the Nikon feels better built, has a higher-resolution EVF, includes in-body image stabilization and dual SD card slots, and has significantly better battery life. That said, the Canon does offer a couple of advantages—notably, a more portable body and a better overall autofocus system.

The Canon EOS RP and the Canon EOS R50 are in different classes, and one may suit you better than the other, depending on your budget and needs. The RP is a full-frame model with very limited video features, while the R50 has a smaller APS-C sensor and a more portable body. The R50 is more well-rounded, with better video performance and more frame rate options. However, if you need full-frame image quality, the RP is one of the most affordable full-frame cameras on the market.

The Canon EOS R6 is better overall than the Canon EOS RP, but the RP may be preferable if you want a more portable camera body. The R6 feels better built and has a better battery life, dual SD card slots, and significantly better video specs.

The Sony α7 III is better overall than the Canon EOS RP. Though it's a bit less portable, it feels better built and has a much longer battery life. It also has better video features and a sensor with more dynamic range, making it more well-rounded. Sony's E mount system also gives you a wider range of lens options to choose from.

The Canon EOS R7 is better overall than the Canon EOS RP. It's better-built and has a more effective autofocus system, faster burst shooting, in-body image stabilization, a longer battery life, and much better internal video recording capability.

The Canon EOS R6 Mark II is better overall than the Canon EOS RP, but the RP is still a good option if you want a more portable and more affordable full-frame camera. The RP can still take excellent photos, and both cameras use the same lens mount, but the R6 Mark II is a more capable camera body, with a better build quality, a higher-resolution EVF, in-body image stabilization, and more advanced video features, including more frame rate options and better internal recording specs.

While the Canon EOS R100 is a relatively cheap entryway into mirrorless cameras, the Canon EOS RP has more advantages for photography. That includes a full-frame sensor, a fully-articulated touchscreen, and more effective autofocus.

The Canon EOS RP and the Sony α7 II each offer advantages and disadvantages. The RP is more portable and can record video in 4k, albeit with a very heavy crop. It also has a newer processor and more reliable autofocus system. On the other hand, the α7 II has in-body image stabilization and a slightly better battery life, along with a wider selection of lens options.

Test Results

• Mostly made of fairly high-grade plastic
• Buttons and command wheels operate smoothly and precisely

• 1x Canon LP-E17 battery
• Shoulder strap
• Battery charger
• User manual

• Textured handgrip is big enough for most hand sizes and provides a secure hold
• Plenty of room between the lens and the body, so your fingers shouldn't feel pinched
• Back rest is big enough to allow you to rest your thumb in place without touching any of the controls
• Changing aperture and shutter speed via the command dials is easy with your eye pressed up against the viewfinder, but adjusting the ISO requires an extra button input beforehand
• Rubber eyecup around the viewfinder is stiff and could be uncomfortable to press your eye against for extended shooting sessions

• Easy to navigate via the physical controls or by using its touchscreen
• Guide mode helps you understand some functions
• A few essential functions are behind sub-menus, like changing the autofocus tracking mode or switching from manual to automatic focus
• Some features can only be enabled when the camera is in a certain mode, such as the silent shooting feature only being accessible when the camera is in 'Scene' mode

If you'd prefer a camera with in-body image stabilization, consider the Sony α7 II .

If you want a similar camera that can record 4k video at up to 60 fps without a crop, check out the Canon EOS R8 .

Canon EOS RP Review 2024 (Entry-Level & Full Frame)

You can also select your interests for free access to our premium training:

The Canon EOS RP is an entry-level full frame mirrorless camera . It is not something you often come across. And it’s one of the first cameras to be marketed as such. So this puts it in a strange place on the market.

There’s a payoff between sensor size and features. You pay for the sensor size. But other cameras will offer you better features.

So it’s a question of whether you think the benefits of a full frame are worth the loss of some features. Read on to see our advice about this interesting full frame offering.

Canon EOS RP Overview and Specifications

Canon eos rp.

In Canon’s own words, the EOS RP puts the power of a full frame mirrorless into a small, lightweight EOS R series body. It opens up exciting creative possibilities for you to elevate your photography to the next level.

This is the world’s first entry-level full frame camera since the film era. Its launch price was lower than any other full frame device before it. And its price has since further decreased.

It presents a weird mix of entry-level camera features with the added benefits of a larger sensor. But it lacks more advanced options.

For this review, I picked up the EOS RP camera with the RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM kit lens . It’s one of the more expensive kit options. I also tested it extensively with my own EF lenses with the provided adaptor.

Who Is the EOS RP For?

Due to its lack of advanced features, most advantages of the RP are limited to its size and its sensor.

It’s an excellent choice for low-light photography on a budget with the right lenses. It performs well in casual, documentary, family, portrait, and travel applications. It might also act as a stepping stone into the full frame world.

The RP is best suited for enthusiasts with longer-term plans in photography. Or it could be for experienced users as a backup camera .

Key Features

Now, let’s discuss what elevates the Canon EOS RP from the crowd. And we’ll talk about what makes it a subpar choice in many cases.

Mount and Compatibility

The EOS RP is built around Canon’s full frame mirrorless mount, the RF mount. Introduced in 2018, this system was not yet very popular.

But it is now fairly well-supplied with RF lenses . It changed thanks to the release of two professional camera models, the Canon EOS R5 and the Canon EOS R6 .

The RF mount is one of the most technologically advanced. It has a short flange distance of 20mm. It has a diameter of 54mm (the same as EF). And it has a high-bandwidth electronic connection.

There are few native RF lens options for the EOS RP. There are three kit zoom lenses you can choose from: a 24-105mm f/4-7.1 IS , a 24-240mm f/4-6.3 IS , and a 24-105mm f/4 IS . Of these, only the latter provides decent enough image quality for my taste.

There are also a couple of excellent small primes available, the 35mm f/1.8 IS macro and the recently announced 85mm f/2 IS macro . These two actually make an awesome kit with RP due to their small size but great quality.

The RF lineup also features very high-quality lens options with both zooms and primes. But these are quite out of range for use with the RP in both price and size.

You can adapt Canon EF lenses (made for DSLRs) with relative ease. The EF communication protocol is natively supported by Canon EOS R cameras .

The EF-RF adaptors are simple, pin-to-pin constructions for the most part. This means there is no loss in autofocus speed or accuracy compared to EF-mount cameras with EF lenses.

Adapting non-Canon lenses is also possible due to the short flange distance . That said, adaptors are less widely available than ones for Sony’s E-mount. Manual lens operation is made easier with electronic viewfinder (EVF) magnification and focus peaking .

Sensor and Image Quality

The EOS RP has a large, full frame sensor with a resolution of 26 MP (megapixels). And it is not stabilized. It’s the same sensor as the one found in the Canon EOS 6D Mark II DSLR . This sensor gives you excellent high-ISO capabilities due to its sheer size.

In this price range, the RP performs among the best in low light. In terms of dynamic range , the story is not so nice.

Canon has been criticized throughout much of the past decade for putting subpar sensors in their cameras. Compared to recent sensor technology from Sony, this sensor performs around two stops worse. This is quite a lot.

It has the same dynamic range of around 12 stops as my Canon EOS 5D Mark III . This is over 11 years old. Several APS-C cameras also outperform it. Now, this is not to say that you can’t create excellent images with this sensor.

You just need to be very careful with your exposure precision. And RAW files won’t give you multiple stops of headroom if something goes wrong. You might also find a need to make exposure brackets more often in high-contrast situations.

Its image quality out of the box is great. This has been Canon’s strong point for a while. The colors look balanced and natural by default. This is especially true with skin tones. Plus, noise reduction and sharpening algorithms are not overpowering.

Focusing and Burst

The EOS RP sports Canon’s Dual Pixel autofocus (AF) technology. This is a system based on on-sensor phase detection , supported by artificial intelligence (AI).

For general use, it works really well. Focusing points are dense and cover almost the entire frame.

Eye and face detection helps when composing with human subjects. I’ve found that the switch between picking up the face and picking up the eye occurs when the face fills at least a third of the frame.

This system is very sensitive, performing outstandingly well in low light. And tracking features are fairly basic. The camera tracks subjects (especially human subjects) reliably.

Video Features

Video recording is another area where the Canon EOS RP lags behind. It’s capable of 4K shooting. But there are many caveats. It records 4K only at 24 fps (frames per second), with a 1.7x crop, and without autofocus.

There is also no quality 10-bit output or Log profiles to enhance video s. The 4K footage looks nice. But with all these limitations, the RP is basically unusable for 4K.

In Full HD, the situation is better. You get several options up to 1080/60p, with full AF tracking and no crop. But these options look fairly soft.

Surprisingly, the RP has both a microphone and a headphone port. And it has s a micro-HDMI connector capable of clean output.

Body and Handling

The EOS RP is one of the smallest full frame cameras ever made. It measures 5.2 x 3.3 x 2.8 inches (133 x 85 x 70 mm). And it weighs 1.1 lb (485 grams) with the battery.

Its construction is decent, mostly built of magnesium alloy. The camera is weather-sealed. So it will withstand rainy, dusty, or freezing conditions.

It feels good in the hands. Although only with smaller lenses.

The kit lens I used with it ( RF 24-105L ) is about the largest for comfortable use with the RP. For use with heavier lenses, you can use third-party grips, but that defeats the purpose of having such a small camera.

I’ve found that I was most comfortable using the EOS RP with my smaller EF primes:

• A 24mm f/1.4 (on the brink of too front-heavy)
• A 40mm f/2.8 pancake lens
• An 85mm f/1.8

The Pentax Super Takumar 50mm f/1.4 manual lens balanced excellently as well. I also tested the RP with much larger lenses. This included the TS-E 17mm f/4 , the 70-200mm f/2.8 , and the 200mm f/1.8 . But these were far too large.

In terms of controls, the EOS RP is decently supplied for entry-level standards. But it’s missing a few important buttons. I was especially staggered by the lack of a dedicated ISO button. This is included even on Canon’s cheapest DSLRs.

ISO is adjustable via the Multi-Function (M-Fn) button. And there are half a dozen other functions like Drive Mode or White Balance .

There are two control wheels well-placed at ergonomic locations. A mode dial and an on-off dial are located on the top as well.

I must say, the on-off switch is one of the worst I’ve used. It’s hard to turn and nearly impossible to flick and turn the camera on. It also occupies a large area where more usable buttons or an extra dial could’ve been placed.

A flip-out touchscreen is also located on the back, and it’s excellent. Canon’s touch integration is among the best, along with Panasonic and Olympus.

All functions are available through the touchscreen. This includes menu navigation, touch-to-focus, and picture review . Smartphone gestures, such as pinch-in zooming, also work.

The EVF looks sharp and bright. Its magnification of 0.7x is smaller than normal. But it’s still very usable.

The RP records images onto a single UHS-I SD memory card . The card shares the same door as the battery compartment. This is not ideal. But at least the door can still be opened when a tripod plate is attached to the camera.

Speaking of the battery, its life is not long. I could squeeze out around 200 shots of one charge before it drained completely. The RP houses the same battery as the one found in the Rebel series. It was not designed for high-energy-consuming mirrorless use.

Connectivity options are extensive. I particularly liked that full camera control is available through a smartphone application. GPS geotagging is also possible through a Bluetooth connection with a phone.

Alternatives

As I mentioned, the EOS RP’s place on the market is strange. It doesn’t really compete with full frame cameras. It compares more so with mid-range APS-C and Micro Four Thirds cameras .

But there are a few comparable full frame options. The Canon EOS 6D Mark II is a DSLR that shares many features with the EOS RP in a larger, more durable body.

The Sony a7 II is another full frame camera in the same league. But it’s a generation older. Its image quality and video features are better. But it lags behind in autofocus performance.

The Fujifilm X-T30 is an APS-C camera. And it stands out with its beautiful design and exceptional JPEG and video quality. You can read our review of the X-T30 .

The Canon EOS M6 Mark II has a 32MP sensor. And it has an excellent autofocus system and decent ergonomics in a tiny body. But has no viewfinder.

The Sony a6400 should be your choice for fast action in this category. It sports the best autofocus system among these cameras. It also has good ergonomics, comparable to the RP. You can read our a6400 review .

Our Verdict

The EOS RP is an excellent little camera for some purposes. But it’s a bad choice for several others. I’d rather get a more advanced crop-sensor camera or save up a little more and get a better full frame camera .

But paired with the right Canon lenses , this is a great travel and documentary camera. It’s also highly capable of taking portraits , low-light photos, and even landscapes . But I don’t recommend it for events, action, or sports photography .

Pros: + Streamlined, easy-to-use control layout with plenty of customisation + Well-integrated touchscreen interface + Compatible with EF-mount SLR lenses via supplied adapter + Fully-articulated screen affords extra compositional flexibility

Cons: - No in-body image stabilisation - Over-simplified controls - Viewfinder visibility is poor in bright light

Manufacturer:

Canon’s entry-level full-frame mirrorless does a lot to appeal to enthusiast photographers, but some might find it over-simplified, canon eos rp: at a glance.

• £1399.99 with EF-mount adapter
• 26.2MP Full-frame sensor
• ISO 50-102,400 (extended)
• 5 fps continuous shooting
• 2.36m-dot electronic viewfinder
• 3-in 1.04m-dot fully-articulated touchscreen
• £2329.99 with RF 24-105mm F4L lens and EF adapter

When Canon announced its full-frame mirrorless system last September, it received something of a mixed reaction. The EOS R body was packed full of new ideas, but in its bid to break away from traditional DSLR design and re-think how cameras should work, ended up feeling somewhat alien to long-standing EOS users. This stood in stark contrast to Nikon’s Z 6 and Z 7, which behave much like miniaturised versions of the firm’s DSLRs.

Canon’s second offering, the EOS RP, is in essence a smaller, simpler model compared to the EOS R, at a considerably lower price. Indeed at £1400 body-only it has the lowest introductory price of any full-frame mirrorless to date, which naturally makes it one of the most affordable full-frame cameras on the market. It shares a lot in common with its sibling design-wise, but loses some of its more controversial elements. This immediately makes it feel more like a traditional EOS, although still with some significant differences.

The EOS RP is attractively priced at £1400 including an EF-mount adapter

Canon has made a point of making the EOS RP compact and lightweight, to the extent that at 485g including battery and card, it weighs less than the EOS 800D entry-level APS-C DSLR. The firm has also radically streamlined the external design and control layout, and while it mostly works well, I think that in some ways it has gone too far for enthusiast users.

Canon EOS RP: Features

Internally, the EOS RP is based around a 26.2MP sensor that’s borrowed from the EOS 6D Mark II. It’s paired with the latest Digic 8 processor, and offers a standard sensitivity range of ISO 100-40,000 that’s expandable to ISO 50-102,400. Shots can be fired off at 5 frames per second with focus fixed, or 4 fps with AF adjustment between frames, which is pretty pedestrian by current standards.

The EOS RP uses the same 26.2MP sensor as the EOS 6D Mark II DSLR

Autofocus employs on-chip phase detection via Dual Pixel CMOS AF technology, with 4779 selectable focus points covering 88% of the sensor’s width and the entirety of its height. Canon claims it will work in light as low as -5 EV when using a f/1.2 lens, which doesn’t quite match the EOS RP’s -6EV, but is still very impressive. As we’ve come to expect, face and eye-detection focusing are also available, with the latter now available in continuous AF mode.

Files are recorded to a single SD card slot that supports the high-speed UHS-II standard. The EOS RP employs Canon’s latest CR3 raw format that allows files to be compressed 40% smaller than before using the CRAW option, so you’ll get rather more shots to a memory card compared to the EOS 6D Mark II. For example a freshly-formatted 32GB card indicates space for 866 CRAW + JPEG compared to 633 using standard raw compression, which stands up favourably to the lower-resolution Sony Alpha 7 III (458 uncompressed raw + JPEG, or 717 using raw compression).

The Canon EOS RP uses the same LP-E17 battery as several of the firm’s APS-C DSLRs

Power is provided by the small LP-E17 battery, which is rated for a disappointing 250 shots per charge. An external charger is supplied, and in principle the battery can also be topped-up in-camera via USB. However this requires a charging device compatible with the USB-C PD standard, which means it probably won’t work with your existing chargers and powerbanks, and therefore fundamentally lacks the go-anywhere convenience that’s the whole point of USB charging. Thankfully inexpensive spares are readily available online, and I’d advise picking one or two up and carrying them at all times.

One difference compared to the EOS R is that the RP doesn’t close its shutter when changing lenses. However, it’s noticeable that Canon activates its anti-dust system every single time you change a lens, either RF- or EF-mount; in a quiet room you can hear the sensor vibrating. This makes a lot of sense, and I’ve had no problem with dust on the sensor during a couple of week’s use with frequent lens changes.

The EOS RP leaves its shutter open when switched off, like most other mirrorless cameras

In-camera raw processing allows you to tweak your images after shooting, and for this Canon has added a new results-oriented interface called ‘Creative Assist’ based around a simplified set of options, which should be easier to understand for less-experienced users.

As with the EOS R, 4K video recording is available using a 3980×2160 pixel region in the centre of the sensor, which roughly equates to a 1.6x crop. This has a considerable impact on how lenses behave, although those wishing to shoot sweeping panoramic vistas could use an APS-C format wide zoom such as the EF-S 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 IS STM via the EF-mount adapter.

Canon’s excellent dual-pixel AF is on hand to provide smooth, precise pulling of focus between subjects, but only when shooting in Full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution; it doesn’t work in 4K. Microphone and headphone sockets are built-in, positioned low on the body where they don’t impede placing the screen in a comfortable position for recording. The E3-type remote release socket doesn’t interfere with the screen, either.

The E3-type remote release port, headphone and microphone sockets, and USB-C and HDMI connectors

In terms of connectivity, the EOS RP includes both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, and offers a wider range of functions than many other cameras. With the Canon Camera Connect app for Android or iOS, you can use your smartphone as either a simple Bluetooth wireless release, or a comprehensive Wi-Fi remote control complete with a live view feed and the ability to change a wide range of settings.

The Bluetooth connection can even be used to turn on the camera’s Wi-Fi remotely, so you can browse through your images and copy your favourites across to your phone for sharing, even if your camera is packed away in your bag. In addition the EOS RP can send images directly to a Wi-Fi enabled printer, or be controlled remotely from a computer over Wi-Fi using the EOS Utility software.

Canon EOS RP: Build and handling

The EOS RP sports an unusual squat-looking design, that comes as a result of Canon pairing the 54mm-diameter RF mount with a good-sized hand-grip, then building up the shoulders around the top-plate dials such that the viewfinder ends up almost fully embedded within the body. Compared to Sony’s Alpha 7 models, it’s lower but wider, with the grip being both deeper and spaced further from the lens mount. This makes it more comfortable to hold, particularly with larger lenses.

The EOS RP’s deep grip makes it comfortable to hold

Unsurprisingly for such a lightweight camera, the RP is built using a plastic shell over a magnesium-alloy chassis. It may not offer the same sense of solidity as the EOS R, but then again it doesn’t feel like it’s going to fall apart either. The rubberised grip feels secure in your hand, and there’s a well-defined space on the back for your thumb to rest. Canon promises a degree of dust- and splash-proofing similar to the EOS 80D mid-range DSLR.

In operational terms the EOS RP resembles its larger sibling, with similar control logic. Two electronic dials on the top plate are used for changing exposure settings, with one operated by your forefinger and the other conveniently placed at the tip of your thumb. It’s also possible to use the additional dial found on RF lenses to control shutter speed, aperture, ISO or exposure compensation, either directly or while pressing the AF On button.

The EOS RP’s relatively simple top-plate control layout

However instead of a top-plate LCD, the EOS sports a conventional exposure mode dial, complete with Canon’s clever new Flexible value (Fv) mode that can behave as any of the other modes from fully-automatic to manual. The EOS R’s controversial touch bar has been discarded, and I doubt many people will miss it.

The RP inherits the neat Dial Function menu that gives quick and easy access to settings such as ISO, white balance, and drive and AF modes, with all the changes displayed clearly in the viewfinder. In effect, this replaces the EOS 6D Mark II’s line of top-plate buttons, offering the same functionality in a considerably neater interface. In conjunction with Canon’s onscreen Q menu, it allows you to change almost any major setting without taking your eye from the viewfinder. The only irritation is that it’s operated from the tiny M.Fn button just behind the shutter release; it’s a shame Canon didn’t have the courage of its convictions and provide a large, properly labelled button.

The onscreen Quick menu gives access to a wide range of settings

To move the focus point, you can use either the touchscreen or the d-pad, with the latter first requiring a press of the AF area selector button on the camera’s shoulder. It’s possible to reconfigure the d-pad to move the focus area directly, which personally I prefer, but unfortunately on the EOS RP this is quite slow and cumbersome in practice, and comes at the cost being unable to use Fv mode to its full potential. It’s a real shame that Canon has again refused to include a focus joystick, as they’re much quicker and more intuitive to use.

All the controls on the back are positioned to be operated by your right thumb

The EOS RP’s simplified layout brings some further irritations, too. It’s highly customisable, which sounds great until you realise that the few buttons Canon has retained all do useful things, which means that reconfiguring any of them sacrifices valuable functionality. To be really satisfactory to enthusiasts, the RP could just do with a few more controls.

Depth-of-field preview is a case in point. One great advantage of mirrorless cameras is their ability to provide a completely accurate preview at any aperture; indeed Sony provides this all the time. This is especially useful with full frame, given that additional control over DOF is one of the main reasons to upgrade from APS-C, and Canon is actively exploiting the mirrorless architecture to provide some impressive ultra-fast lenses.

Depth of field preview is handy for visualising background blur, as well as what’s in sharp focus. Canon EOS RP, Canon RF 35mm f/1.8 Macro IS STM, 1/125sec at f/4, ISO 100

However, not only has Canon chosen to deliver the live view feed with the aperture held open, incredibly there’s no depth-of-field preview button – something which Canon provides on all but the most basic of its DSLRs. So if you want to visualise how your images will look in terms of front-to-back sharpness and background blur, you have to reconfigure a button to DOF preview, and then hold it down while changing the aperture. This suggests that Canon doesn’t yet fully understand the key benefits of mirrorless, and how to make best use of them.

Canon EG-E1 extension grip

For those who find the EOS RP too small, Canon is offering the EG-E1 extension grip, which screws into the base of the camera and adds a bit of extra depth. It has its own battery compartment door, which requires the camera’s to be removed first, along with a tripod socket.

Here’s the EOS RP with the optional EG-E1 extension grip

For users with large hands the EG-E1 could noticeably improve the camera’s handling, but the bad news is that it comes with unfathomable asking price of £84.99.

Canon EOS RP: Viewfinder and screen

As befits its SLR-style design, the EOS RP is equipped with an electronic viewfinder that’s placed in-line with the lens axis. It employs a 2.36-million-dot panel with 0.7x magnification, which is comparable to the 4-year-old, but similarly-priced Sony Alpha 7 II. But it’s noticeably not as good as the 3.69m-dot EVFs used in most recent high-end mirrorless models.

The vari-angle screen can be used for overhead or waist-level shooting in both landscape and portrait formats, or face forwards for selfies and vlogging.

Colour and exposure are previewed accurately enough and Canon provides comprehensive viewfinder information, including a well-designed electronic level display and the option of an RGB live histogram. Unfortunately I found the EVF could be too dim to see clearly in bright sunlight, while the optics were prone to giving disconcerting purple flare spots, presumably due to reflections off my spectacles. I often had to block out stray light with my hand to make the display visible.

The screen can also be used for waist-level shooting in portrait format

Beneath the viewfinder, there’s a 3-in touchscreen of the fully-articulated type. This design means that it’s useful for shooting at unusual angles in both portrait and landscape formats, which is a significant advantage over the tilt-only screens found on most of the RP’s rivals. It can also face forwards for selfies and vlogging. The screen itself is very good indeed, being bright enough to see in sunlight, and again giving an accurate preview of colour and exposure.

The articulated screen is ideal for shooting at ground level. RF 24-105mm F4L IS STM at 105mm, 1/500sec at f/4, ISO 100

Canon has long had one of the best touch interfaces, and it’s present again here. Every aspect of the camera’s operation can be controlled from the touchscreen, including the Q menu, image playback and the main menus. You can also use it to change settings silently during video recording. The response is quick and accurate, meaning that it can be the fastest way to change settings, particularly with the Q menu. But crucially, the touchscreen almost always complements, rather than replaces the physical controls.

Canon EOS RP: Autofocus

Like its other recent mirrorless models, Canon has equipped the EOS RP with its unique dual pixel autofocus technology. This splits every single pixel on the sensor into two photodiodes, facing left and right, which allows on-chip phase detection across practically the entire sensor. In practice you can set the focus area almost anywhere you please aside from the extreme left and right edges of the frame, while a new Spot AF mode allows you to focus precisely on a small area of the frame. One minor disadvantage of dual-pixel AF, however, is that it’s only sensitive to vertical detail, so can hunt in certain situations (the solution often being to rotate the camera slightly until the AF locks).

Spot AF mode allows precise focusing almost anywhere in the frame. Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM at 120mm, 1/160sec at f/5.6, ISO 250

This year’s must-have feature, however, is eye-detection AF and Canon has now made it available in continuous (or servo) AF mode. It works reasonably well, but it can’t match Sony’s class-leading implementation in terms of ‘stickiness’ to the subject, or the ability to recognise faces across a wide range of angles. Indeed Canon’s version only really works with subjects that are facing the camera almost directly.

In practical use the EOS RP’s AF system generally works well, giving fast, silent and decisive AF with static subjects and making a very decent effort at continuous AF too. As usual for on-sensor AF, it’s inherently accurate, so there’s no need to worry about making micro-adjustments to correct for front- or back-focus with fast lenses. But perhaps its stand-out superpower is its remarkable low-light ability; the EOS RP is capable of focusing with absolute confidence on even the most dimly-lit of night scenes or interiors.

The EOS RP focuses with complete confidence in extraordinarily low light. RF 35mm F1.8 Macro IS STM, 1.15sec at f/1.8, ISO 4000

Alternatively, you can use manual focus if the AF fails. But as on its APS-C M system, Canon has employed dubious control logic. With native RF lenses set to AF, full-time manual focus is available, and turning the focus ring will give a magnified view for the most accurate results, which is exactly what we’d expect. But switch the lens to MF and mystifyingly the camera doesn’t engage magnification automatically.

If you’re shooting with the LCD there’s an onscreen touch button to do the job, but for viewfinder work you have to press the AF Area button followed by Info, which is an unnecessarily long-winded process. Worse still, it won’t work if you’ve re-assigned the AF button, for example to DOF preview.

Canon EOS RP: EF lens compatibility

Probably the EOS RP’s biggest draw is its compatibility with almost any EF or EF-S lens using the supplied mount adapter, which means that SLR users can use it with their existing lens sets. While it’s naturally best suited to full-frame optics, APS-C lenses can also be used subject to a 1.6x crop that results in 10.2MP images. However EF-M lenses won’t fit, and there’s little chance we’ll see an adapter.

The EOS RP with the relatively affordable EF 24-105mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens

I tested the RP with a range of lenses, including Canon’s original 50mm f/1.8 from 1987, the mid-2000s EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM, the current, relatively affordable EF 24-105mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM, and third-party options from Sigma and Yongnuo. All of them worked fine, with autofocus, aperture control and image stabilisation functioning correctly. However IS runs continually when the camera is switched on, which appears to drain the battery more quickly.

Shot with the  EF 24-105mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens at 105mm. 1/30sec at f/5.6, ISO 6400

It’s also possible to use a wide range of older manual-focus lenses, with the first third-party adapters starting to appear on online marketplaces. You’ll first have to enable the ‘Release shutter w/o lens’ custom function, and I found it handy to set up a custom exposure mode with live view magnification assigned to the AF area button. Frustratingly, peaking can only be turned on and off in the menu, and not assigned to a custom button.

Canon EOS RP: Performance

When you come to shoot with the EOS RP, it’s really only the electronic viewfinder that gives away the fact you’re not using a DSLR. In most practical respects it’s just as quick and responsive, and existing EOS users should have no problem with picking it up and using it right away. The mirrorless design means that it behaves exactly the same with the rear screen as when using the viewfinder, and there’s also very little difference between using native RF and adapted EF lenses. For Canon users who’ve held off from trying mirrorless, this might just be the right moment to dip a toe in the waters.

Canon RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM at 53mm, 1/100sec at f/8, ISO 100

In fact, in some respects the EOS RP behaves better than Canon’s DSLRs. Its metering and auto white balance are almost fool-proof, which means that it gives well-exposed and attractively-coloured images under almost any lighting conditions, with minimal need for manual intervention.

The EOS RP gives gorgeous colours in its out-of-camera JPEG files. EF 24-105mm F4L IS USM at 56mm, 1/160sec at f/8, ISO 1600

The default JPEG processing uses slightly heavy-handed sharpening, but switch to the Fine Detail picture style and it’ll deliver crisper images when viewed at the pixel level. If you prefer this look, you can simply copy the same sharpening parameters to any other picture style. For raw shooters, there’s no apparent penalty to adopting the cRAW format – just make sure your preferred software can handle it first.

Battery life is naturally a concern, with the specified 250 shots per charge being distinctly on the low side, especially as you can’t top up the battery via the USB port. However, Canon has been using the LP-E17 for long enough that inexpensive third-party spares are widely available online. I’d recommend diving into the power saving settings and making the various power-down times as short as possible, which will help eke out the best possible stamina. It’s also worth trying Canon’s Eco mode, which uses especially aggressive power management to extend battery life, but some might find it goes too far.

Canon EOS RP: Image quality

Canon has used the same sensor as in the EOS 6D Mark II, and not surprisingly we see very similar image quality. In terms of detail, it’s in much the same league as competing cameras with 24MP sensors, and its high-ISO image quality is as good as we’d expect for a modern full-frame sensor, giving perfectly usable results up to ISO 12,800.

The EOS RP gives perfectly usable results at sensitivities as high as ISO 12,800. RF 24-105mm F4L IS USM at 56mm, 1/15sec at f/4, ISO 12,800

The biggest drawback of Canon re-using the EOS 6D Mark II’s sensor is its relatively limited low-ISO dynamic range. This means that you can’t dig as much detail out of the shadows from raw files before being confronted by unsightly noise, compared to other full-frame sensors or even modern APS-C sensors.

In this image, I had to keep the balloon’s envelope darker than I’d like in post-processing, due to the sensor’s limited DR. RF 24-105mm F4L IS USM, 1/100sec at f/8, ISO 100

For many photographers, this won’t be a concern much of the time. But it does limit how far you can push your image files.

Canon EOS RP: Resolution

At low ISO, the EOS RP resolves around 3900 lines per picture height before aliasing artefacts com into play, which is essentially as much as we could realistically expect from its 26MP sensor. Examining raw files processed in Digital Photo Pro reveals that resolution initially drops very gradually as the sensitivity is raised, to around 3600 l/ph at ISO 3200 and a very respectable 3400 l/ph at ISO 12,800. But go any higher and it falls away precipitously, to just 2000 l/ph at ISO 102,400. JPEG files show slightly lower resolution due to more aggressive noise reduction.

From the crops below, multiple the number beneath the line by 200 to calculate the resoluti0n in lines per picture height.

Canon EOS RP: ISO and Noise

Here we’re looking at raw files processed in Canon’s Digital Photo Pro software, using the Fine Detail picture style with minimal luminance noise reduction applied, in order to maximise detail. Image quality is excellent at low ISO, with attractive colours and lots of fine detail; just be aware that the extended ISO 50 setting will clip highlights more readily than ISO 100, so needs to be used with care.

There’s barely any drop in image quality at ISO 1600, which retains plenty of detail and strong colour, and even ISO 6400 gives very good results, although shadow detail is starting to block up. I’d still use ISO 12,800 perfectly happily, and maybe even ISO 25,600 at a pinch, but I’d avoid the higher extended settings.

Canon EOS RP: Verdict

With the EOS RP, Canon has revealed its vision for how entry-level full-frame mirrorless should look. It’s got a lot right too, with a body design that handles much better than its odd-looking profile might suggest. Rather than simply porting across the existing EOS DSLR interface, it’s employed some clever new ideas, such as the Dial Function setting and Fv exposure mode. The JPEG output is excellent, giving images that are perfectly usable at sensitivities up to ISO 12,800, and while the limited low-ISO dynamic range is disappointing, it’s not a problem for the majority of images. So there’s plenty to like here.

The EOS RP sits nicely in your hand, thanks to a relatively large grip

Crucially the EOS RP works seamlessly with EF-mount lenses, which means Canon DSLR users with an existing lens collection can get started right away. This goes some way towards making up for the fact that the native RF lens range is still very small, and Canon hasn’t yet made a low-priced kit zoom, with the least expensive being the £1120 RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM. However I’m not sure I’d buy EF lenses specifically to use with the RP.

Shot with my 13-year-old EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM at 135mm. 1/160sec at f/11, ISO 100

The problem, though, is that Canon has treated the EOS RP as if it really is an entry-level model. But at £1400, it’s the same price as some incredibly capable crop-sensor models, such as the superb Fujifilm X-T3. Of course something has to give to get full-frame to this price point, but I think the RP has cut too many corners, and I continually found myself frustrated by its operational limitations.

If Canon is really serious about nailing the full-frame mirrorless market, it needs to start providing such essentials as an AF joystick, functional depth-of-field preview and better-implemented manual focus, all of which you’ll get from other similarly-priced cameras. Hopefully it’ll rectify these flaws in second-generation models.

However, those who are prepared to tolerate the EOS RP’s failings can expect to get full-frame image quality in a small, lightweight package that’s generally very pleasant to shoot with. I’m sure that many Canon users will be delighted with the EOS RP, but I can’t help but feel that it should have been rather better.

Latest Reviews

The brand new EOS RP is Canon's second ever 35mm full-frame mirrorless camera. The Canon EOS RP has a 26.2 megapixel CMOS sensor, DIGIC 8 image processor, 4K UHD 25/24p video recording in 8-bit 4:2:2, a touch-screen interface, 4,779-point Dual Pixel CMOS AF System that can focus as low as -5EV, ISO 50-102400, a 3-inch 1.04 million dot vari-angle LCD monitor, a 2.36 million dot electronic viewfinder, integrated Wi-Fi / Bluetooth connectivity, 4fps burst shooting with AF tracking (5fps without), CR3 14-bit RAW support, USB in-camera charging and a flash hot-shoe.

The EOS RP is Canon's second 35mm full-frame mirrorless camera, following hot on the heels of the EOS R model that was released in September 2018. Instead of being a higher-end, pro model, as had widely been predicted by the photography press and hoped for by many enthusiasts, the EOS RP is a much cheaper camera than the R - indeed, it's currently the cheapest full-frame mirrorless camera on the market, and by a large margin, significantly undercutting the likes of the Nikon Z6, Panasonic Lumix S1 and the Sony A7 III cameras.

Indeed, priced at £1,399.99 / €1,629.99 / $1,299 body-only, the EOS RP actually steps on the toes of smaller format cameras like the Fujifilm X-H1 and X-T3, Panasonic Lumix G9 and Olympus OM-D E-M1 II, which shows just how aggressive Canon have decided to be in terms of pricing and widening the full-frame market. The "P" in "EOS RP" actually stands for “popular” in Japanese, signalling Canon's intent to release a camera that will appeal to as wide an audience as possible. The sub £$2000 full-frame mirrorless barrier has been well and truly smashed with the launch of the Canon EOS RP, and it'll be very interesting to see how Canon's rivals respond in the coming months (Nikon have already signalled their intent to launch a similarly priced rival camera to the RP).

The Canon EOS RP continues to use the new RF lens mount, which made its debut on last year's EOS R camera, so this new model can utilise the four lenses that were announced alongside the EOS R - the RF 24-105mm F4 L IS USM kit lens that we predominantly reviewed the camera with, the RF 50mm f/1.2L USM, the RF 28-70mm f/2L USM and the RF 35mm f/1.8 MACRO IS STM. At the time of writing, these are the only RF lenses available to buy, although Canon have released a lens roadmap with lots more RF lenses on it.

With the exception of the RF 35mm f/1.8 MACRO IS STM, all of the RF lenses released so far are actually more expensive than the EOS RP body, which has resulted in Canon creating some rather interesting lens kits for the RP, in that two of them are based upon EF DSLR lenses mounted via the Mount Adapter EF-EOS R. While these lenses work very well on the new EOS R/RP bodies, it does perhaps illustrate the lack of affordable, compact lenses in the fledgling RF lens range, something that Canon haven't really addressed in their RF lens roadmap. At the moment, you can choose to mount big, expensive RF lenses on the EOS RP, or more compact, cheaper EF lenses.

This is especially important given just how compact the new Canon EOS RP camera is - at 132.5x85.0 x70.0mm and 440g, it's smaller and lighter by 175g than the EOS R model, and also smaller and lighter than a comparable DSLR like the 6D Mark II. This means that even the standard RF 24-105mm F/4L IS USM kit zoom lens feels front heavy on the EOS RP, especially when it's zoomed to 105mm as the lens barrel extends further. Canon have sought to address this by releasing the Extension Grip EG-E1, a nicely designed handgrip extension for the EOS RP which makes it more suitable for both people with larger hands and for using the camera with larger, heavier lenses.

The new EOS RP is the smallest and lightest full-frame camera currently available on the market. Despite the EOS RP's lightweight nature, though, the chassis is actually made of magnesium alloy, and it offers the same level of weatherproofing as the EOS 80D DSLR.

As mentioned above, in addition to the four native RF mount lenses, it's also possible to use EF and EF-S (but not EF-M) mount lenses on the Canon EOS RP by fitting one of four new lens adapters. There's the EF-EOS R adapter that's supplied in the box with the EOS RP, plus the EF-EOS R adapter with built-in control ring, EF-EOS R adapter with built-in circular polarizing filter, and finally the EF-EOS R adapter with built-in variable neutral density filter. All four of these adapters work equally well with both the EOS R and RP cameras.

In terms of styling, the Canon EOS RP once again looks like a DSLR camera, albeit one with the pentaprism on top chopped off. There's a surprisingly chunky handgrip on the front which is generously sized given the overall dimensions of the camera, with the small but tactile shutter button set into the sloping front of the grip. On the front of the camera, there's a porthole for the AF assist light, a lozenge shaped button for releasing the lens, and the 54mm diameter RF mount. Unlike the more expensive EOS R, though, the sensor is not protected by a physical cover when the camera is turned off, instead being left open to the elements, as with all other full-frame mirrorless cameras currently released.

At the heart of the EOS RP lies a 26.2 megapixel CMOS sensor, this time with an optical low-pass filter rather than without as on the ESO RP. This shares the exact same specification as the sensor inside the EOS 6D Mark II DSLR, although Canon were at pains to point out that the two cameras don't share exactly the same sensor. Coupled with the latest Digic 8 processor, the EOS R has an ISO range of 100-40000, extendable to 50-102,400, which again matches the 6D Mark II and also the higher-priced EOS R.

As on the EOS R before it, Canon have once again decided not to implement an in-camera image stabilisation system on the new RP model. For better or for worse, they've decided to omit IBIS and build it into some of their lenses instead (but not all), resolutely sticking to their guns that a lens-based system provides technically better stabilisation whilst making the camera smaller.

Whilst this was a potential deal-breaker on the more expensive, larger EOS R, especially as all of its main rivals have built-in body image stabilisation, we can forgive Canon a little more on the EOS RP, given that it's smaller in both size and price. There is a new Dual Sensing IS system that reduces camera shake for handheld photography, and also the Movie Digital IS mode provides 5-axis movie stabilisation to counteract shake during video recording.

Perhaps less forgivable is the poor implementation of 4K video on the Canon EOS RP. Thanks to the Digic 8 processor, the EOS RP is the latest Canon mirrorless camera to offer 4K video recording, which, in conjunction with the vari-angle LCD screen that be rotated to face forwards and the built-in Mic-in and Headphone ports, promises to make it a perfect camera for vlogging

All is not quite as rosy as a glance at the spec sheet would indicate, though, as the EOS RP once again automatically applies a massive 1.6x crop on the sensor in 4k mode (just like the EOS R), which effectively changes the focal length of the fitted lens, making wide-angle framing much more difficult. So difficult, in fact, that you'd currently need to use a non-RF lens achieve a natural viewing angle for video.

Even worse than on the EOS R, the excellent Dual Pixel CMOS AF system is not available when recording in 4K, with the camera instead relying on contrast-based AF, just like the EOS M50 APS-C camera. You have to drop the video quality down to 1080p to avoid the crop factor and benefit from Dual Pixel CMOS AF, which rather defeats the purpose of buying this camera for recording 4K video.

In terms of the video specifications, the Canon EOS RP can only record internally or externally at 4:2:0 8-bit, rather than externally at 4:2:2 10-bit with C-Log as on the EOS R. There are a choice of 25p or 24p frame rates for 4K and up to 60p for Full HD, but there's no 120fps slow-motion option as on the EOS R. All-in-all, video on the EOS R is something of a disappointment, especially in 4K.

A lot more understandable on a camera like the EOS RP is Canon's decision to only implement one card slot, and for the standard to be SD UHS-II, rather than anything more technologically advanced like XQD cards. Slightly more annoying is the fact that the card slot is shared with the battery compartment in the base of the camera, which means that you have to take the camera off a tripod in order to access both the card and the battery.

Silent shooting has long been a staple feature of mirrorless cameras, but on the EOS RP Canon's engineers have effectively made it an option that's only available to beginners. They've done this by turning it into a dedicated scene mode - set the shooting mode dial to SCN, then select Silent Mode from the options - but doing so hands all creative control over to the camera. Bizarrely you can't shoot in Aperture or Shutter Priority or Manual modes and also set the camera to silent shooting, something that virtually every other mirrorless camera on the market is capable of.

The Canon EOS RP uses the same LP-E17 battery as the EOS 800D DSLR and M50 mirrorless cameras, rather than the larger LP-E6N battery used in the EOS R. This provides a rather mediocre CIPA rated life of 250 shots, although you can at least recharge the camera via its USB 2.0 port as well as using the supplied charger.

Give the aggressive price-point, we like the EOS R's EVF and LCD screens. The former has a respectably high resolution of 2.36 million dots, 100% scene coverage and a magnification of 0.70x, which almost but not quite matches the EOS R which offers 0.76x magnification. The RP's LCD screen is a 3-inch unit with 1.04 million dots, again lower-specced than the EOS R, but once again vari-angle in nature, which makes it a joy to use for both stills and video.

Turning to the top of the camera, the EOS RP loses the handy top-panel LCD found on the EOS R, but gains a proper shooting mode dial, something that was sorely missed on the EOS RP's more expensive sibling. On balance on a camera like this, we'd rather have a dedicated shooting mode dial than an LCD status panel - indeed, we would have opted for the same configuration on the EOS R if given the choice, as it speeds up the operation of the camera, especially if you switch between shooting modes a lot.

Another welcome omission from the design of the EOS RP is the lack of a M-Fn Bar. On the EOS R, this rather strange touch-sensitive control located underneath your right thumb can be customised to access different key settings, and the way that it works can also be customised too. It's fair to say that the M-Fn Bar takes some getting used to, so much that we were never convinced that it was a particularly good idea on the EOS R, so it's with a sigh of relief that we see that it hasn't also made its way onto the new EOS RP.

Unfortunately, Canon haven't actually put anything in place of the M-Fn Bar on the EOS RP - instead there's just a blank area. Consequently there's still no AF joystick and/or an AEL button, one of our main criticisms of the EOS R, which again makes it much harder to set the AF point than on rival cameras. Instead you have to use the 4-way navigation pad or touch and drag the AF point on the rear LCD, both much less satisfying alternatives to a good joystick, which is something that power users will definitely miss on the EOS RP.

You can at least use almost the whole screen when touch and dragging the AF point, or you can apportion a section of the screen, for example the bottom right, to allow you to change the AF point. This is particularly handy if you find that your nose or face is accidentally moving the AF point when you don’t want it to whilst using the viewfinder.

On a more positive note, the Canon EOS RP has one of the more advanced AF systems on the market. Canon have built on the proven phase-detect Dual Pixel CMOS AF System in their DSLRs to develop a new variant with no less than 4,779-points, almost as many as the 5,655 points on the EOS R. These cover almost the entire frame - 88% vertical and 100% horizontal - making tracking moving subjects easier and more precise, and allowing you to focus on off-centre subjects without having to reframe. The EOS RP's AF system is also capable of reacting in just 0.05 seconds, which Canon claim make it the quickest full-frame mirrorless camera in the world. Finally, the EOS R can also focus in low-light down to a CIPA-rated -5EV (with certain lenses), an incredible achievement that's almost as good as the -6EV rating on the EOS R.

Less impressive, though, is the Eye AF system, which is enabled as part of the Face Detect AF option rather than as a dedicated option. It worked fine reliably outside in bright sunlight, but struggled a lot more in low-light conditions. On a more positive note, you can now enable it in AF-C mode, as well as AF-S, something that we'd hope to see implemented soon on the EOS R via a firmware update. There's also a new Single-Point Spot AF mode, again not found on the more expensive EOS R.

When it comes to capturing fast moving subjects, the Canon EOS RP lags behind its main rivals in terms of all-out shooting speed, and is also slightly slower than the EOS R. The headline figure is 5fps burst shooting, but that's only when setting the focus point at the first frame, useful for golfers but little else - it drops to a pedestrian 4fps with AF tracking. There's a decent buffer of 50 Raw files or unlimited JPEGs, but the camera simply isn't fast enough for sports and action photography.

The Canon EOS RP offers both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity. You can use the latter as a low-power alternative to Wi-Fi to control the camera and for automatically transferring images across to your phone ready for super quick sharing. It’s also easier and quicker to set up and use than connecting to the camera’s Wi-Fi network, which is still a rather long-winded process.

The EOS RP also has one unique feature never before seen on any Canon camera - focus bracketing. You can take up to 999 shots in total and then blend them together in Canon's Digital Photo Professional software, although at the time of writing a version of DPP that that could do focus bracketing wasn't available for review. Unfortunately you can't blend the images together in-camera.

Overall, in terms of handling, the Canon EOS RP actually gets more things right than it's big brother, the EOS R, largly thanks to taking a more proven, traditional approach to its overall design. Now let's take a close look at the EOS RP's image quality...

All of the sample images in this review were taken using the 26.2 megapixel Fine JPEG setting, which gives an average image size of around 8Mb.

ISO sensitivity can be set between ISO 50 and ISO 102400 in full-stop increments. Here are some 100% crops which show the noise levels for each ISO setting, with JPEG on the left and RAW on the right.

File Quality

The Canon EOS RP has three different file quality settings - Raw, Fine and Normal. Here are some 100% crops which show the difference.

The Canon EOS RP's maximum shutter speed is 30 seconds and there's a Bulb mode for even longer exposures, which is excellent news if you're seriously interested in low light photography.

The Canon EOS RP's HDR Mode captures three different exposures and combines them into one, retaining more shadow and highlight detail, with an Auto mode, three different strengths and several types of HDR style available.

Multiple Exposure

The EOS RP's multiple exposure mode allows you to take between two and nine images and merge them into a single photo in-camera.

Picture Styles

Canon's Picture Controls are preset combinations of different sharpness, contrast, saturation and colour tone settings. The EOS RP's seven available Picture Controls are shown below in the following series, which demonstrates the differences. There are also three User Defined styes so that you can create your own look.

This is a selection of sample images from the Canon EOS RP camera, which were all taken using the 26.2 megapixel Fine JPEG setting. The thumbnails below link to the full-sized versions, which have not been altered in any way.

The new Canon EOS RP certainly isn't the best full-frame mirrorless camera in terms of features, performance or image quality, but it is crucially the cheapest, and it offers more than enough to justify its modest asking price.

While Canon fans might have preferred a new pro-level model to rival the likes of the Sony A7R III, Nikon Z7 and Panasonic Lumix S1R, the entry-level EOS RP shouldn't be overlooked in a year that has already seen a wealth of new cameras launched. The EOS RP provides a logical and affordable upgrade path for owners of Canon's vast selection of APS-C DSLRs who are looking to step-up to full-frame, but who don't need the complexity or expense of cameras like the EOS R, Sony A7 III and Nikon Z6.

Sure, Canon have cut more than a few corners to hit the aggressive price point that the EOS RP enters the market at. These include reusing the same sensor technology as the now aging EOS 6D Mark II DSLR, implementing a lower resolution LCD screen and electronic viewfinder than those seen on the EOS R, featuring an even worse 4K video mode than the EOS R offered, pedestrian 4fps burst shooting with continuous AF, and rather mediocre 250-shot battery life.

On the other hand, the EOS RP is surprisingly well-built, with the same level as weather-proofing as the popular EOS 80D DSLR, makes more logical design decisions, most notably the removal of the M-Fn bar and the addition of a dedicated shooting mode dial, and has a great 1080p video mode. It also offers fantastic auto-focusing, USB charging and Bluetooth connectivity, all in a very compact and lightweight chassis. And in some ways, the EOS RP even manages to outperform its big brother, the EOS R, most notably by offering Eye AF in both AF-S and AF-C focusing modes, and incorporating Focus Stacking for the first time on any Canon camera.

Lens selection is one area where the EOS RP makes less sense for a prospective buyer, currently at least. It's not well suited to the majority of RF lenses that have been released so far, or the ones on the RF lens roadmap, which are all large and heavy and really require that pro-level body that we mentioned earlier. The RF 35mm F1.8 is a good match, and a great lens, but you'll need to consider using Canon's EF lens range via the supplied adapter, at least until Canon start to fill their RF range with smaller, more affordable options. Thankfully, Canon offer the best adapter in the business - using EF lenses on the new EOS R and RP cameras is just as good an experience as using them on EOS DSLRs.

Ultimately, the new EOS RP camera adds up to a lot more than the sum of its parts, offering full-frame mirrorless image quality at an APS-C price point. While it's far from being the most technologically advanced camera ever released, Canon's cunning repackaging of existing tech in a logical design for its target audience could make it one of the best-selling. Pro users will have to wait for the next Canon R model, but prosumers who are interested in what full-frame cameras can offer without having to break the bank should certainly take a long, hard look at the new Canon EOS RP.

Reviews of the Canon EOS RP from around the web.

digitalcameraworld.com »

While its competitors are going to great pains to create increasingly advanced – and increasingly expensive – high end full-frame mirrorless cameras, Canon is catering to crop sensor consumers who are looking for a full-frame option that won’t break their back or their bank balance. The Canon EOS RP is a big success in this regard, offering full-frame functionality and 4K video in a package that’s notably smaller, lighter and cheaper than almost all its rivals. It’s far from an entry level camera, but it’s ideal an entry level full-frame camera. Read the full review »

Arguably a much more compelling proposition for those looking to move to full-frame mirrorless shooting than the EOS R, the EOS RP is blessed with a good build, great image quality, sound autofocus performance and many further pleasures. The sheen is only rubbed off a little by a lack of logical lens options and compromised video capabilities, but if you already own EF lenses and have no use for video it might be just what you were hoping Canon would end up releasing.

Canon UK Press Release

Step into the creative world of EOS R: Canon launches the compact, full frame EOS RP

United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland, 14 February 2019 – Canon today launches the EOS RP - a small, light and practical full frame mirrorless camera, for advanced amateurs looking to take a step-up into Canon’s revolutionary EOS R System. Ideal for travel, landscape and portrait photography and videography, the EOS RP promises greater potential opening up all the benefits of the EOS R System – including the world’s fastest autofocus . As Canon’s smallest, lightest  full frame digital interchangeable lens camera to date, it provides the ultimate blend of practicality and ease of use, with impressive image quality. The EOS RP also allows photographers and videographers to explore and utilise Canon’s full portfolio of EF and EF-S lenses. 

Today, Canon also announces the development of the RF 24-240mm F4-6.3 IS USM – the perfect travel companion – practical in both size and performance. It is a versatile all-purpose lens for the advanced amateur photographer or videographer offering a range of focal lengths for capturing extraordinary shots. 

Enter the full frame world of EOS R 

The EOS RP is an affordable yet advanced camera in Canon’s full frame line-up. Offering next generation full frame optical performance with the potential to explore future RF lenses, such as the RF 24-240mm F4-6.3 IS USM, the EOS RP features the innovative RF Mount with its high-speed 12-pin communication system, short back focus and wide 54-mm mount diameter. Built from the ground up, the RF Mount provides lenses with new levels of optical performance, responsiveness and functionality. Photographers and videographers can also experience the full performance of their existing EF and EF-S lenses thanks to three EF-EOS R adapter options, with additional functionality when using the control ring or drop-in filter adapter.

Supporting creativity with silence, speed and quality 

The EOS RP’s 26.2 Megapixel full frame CMOS sensor, coupled with Canon’s latest DIGIC 8 processor, offers a creative step-up with the optimal balance of detail, control over depth of field and incredible low light shooting performance. Optimised for low light conditions, the ISO 40,000 ¬¬– expandable up to a range of ISO 102,400 – works alongside the powerful Dual Pixel CMOS AF system to enable photographers to shoot in even the darkest environments with confidence, with a shooting capability down to -5 EV . 

With an emphasis on achieving optimal clarity straight from the camera, DLO (Digital Lens Optimiser) correction is applied in-camera to RF lenses and up to five EF lenses when registered in the camera. For post-editing options, the EOS RP offers the latest generation CR3 14-bit RAW file format, alongside a compact RAW option to save approximately 40 per cent on the file size of standard RAW files. This increases the number of images that can be stored on a memory card whilst retaining the flexibility of shooting with RAW. For instant editing, images can be processed in-camera with Creative Assist offering a range of filters, effects and controls that make it simple to obtain the desired result for instant sharing. 

EOS handling, no compromise 

Portable and practical, the EOS RP is Canon’s lightest and most affordable full frame digital interchangeable lens camera launched to date. In a body weighing just 485g , it is great for travel when space and weight are at a premium. Engineered to shoot in a range of situations, the camera is built around a magnesium alloy chassis with high precision outer body parts, including sealing materials to provide dust and moisture resistance. Versatile in its usage, the EOS RP offers a powerful Dual Sensing IS system that reduces camera shake for handheld photography, and a silent shooting scene mode for discreet shooting. A continuous shooting rate of up to 5 fps, or 4 fps with Servo AF, combined with a UHS-II card slot, gives an unlimited  buffer when shooting JPEG or RAW files – enough for capturing action when travelling. The EOS RP’s familiar EOS handling is both easy, familiar and comfortable to use with the flexibility of customisable controls, scene modes and a graphical menu interface – great for adapting to different skill levels, when shooting either stills or video. The well-designed, EOS-style grip, high resolution 7.5-cm Vari-Angle touch screen and 0.39-type OLED electronic viewfinder inspires next generation handling with full creative framing and tactile controls at one’s fingertips – from menu options to the point of focus. The EOS RP is compatible with a range of EOS accessories including the Extension Grip EG-E1 - which also launches today – for added comfort, and the Canon Speedlite 470EX-AI with AI bounce (launched February 2018). 

Focus on every detail 

The EOS RP takes a no compromise approach to autofocus with Dual Pixel CMOS AF offering the world’s fastest AF speed of 0.05 seconds  and accuracy with up to 4779 selectable AF positions over a wide frame area of up to 88 per cent x 100 per cent. The EOS RP’s electronic viewfinder (EVF) – with 2.36 million dots and approximately 100 per cent coverage of the scene – allows great shots to be captured and previewed in challenging and diminished lighting. Touch and Drag AF is one of the four methods that makes it easy to control the focus area while framing using the viewfinder or simply touching the LCD screen. For impactful portraits, Eye AF with continuous tracking focuses on the subjects’ eye when in Face Detect mode, making it easy to achieve professional results and critical sharpness every time. Whether capturing moving subjects for stills or videos, the EOS RP can track the subject continuously to react to the action in the frame. For extended depth of field for macro shooting, focus bracketing allows for stunning depth of focus to be achieved ensuring ultimate sharpness. With a single press of the shutter, the mode continuously shoots with a range of automatically adjusted focal positions. Digital Photo Professional for PC or Mac can then be used for depth composition, creating a final shot which is in focus over the desired depth of field. Spot AF provides precise focusing when taking macro shots. Other AF modes include Face AF, 1pt AF, Expanded AF and Zone AF – providing flexibility for a range of subjects. 

Shoot, share and stay connected  

Thanks to smart Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity for shooting and sharing, the EOS RP allows users to control their camera from their smart device to shoot images or video remotely via Wi-Fi. This is advantageous to avoid distracting the subject or to get a creative edge, whether observing animals or achieving a remote or unique angle in-and-amongst sporting action. Once downloaded, the Canon Connect App gives full control over camera settings, a live view and even the option to wake-up the camera remotely over Bluetooth. When connected to compatible iOS or Android devices, the EOS RP can embed GPS coordinates into images allowing photographers to keep a record of their travel locations. For sharing while on the move, the EOS RP can automatically synchronise images to a smart device, as well as transfer RAW data to the Canon DPP Express app for mobile editing.

Make high-quality, 4K movies on-the-go

The EOS RP delivers freedom and possibilities for videographers looking for a portable and easy-to-use camera. With its DIGIC 8 processor, the EOS RP can capture movies in up to 4K resolution at 25 fps and Full HD at 60 fps. With features including 4K time-lapse, interval timer, Movie Servo AF and HDR movies, users can capture fast action and slow-motion sequences as well as achieve an expanded dynamic range. Dual Pixel CMOS AF  enables accurate focusing and face detection, while Movie Digital IS provides 5-axis movie stabilisation to counteract shake when footage is captured handheld. The microphone and headphone jacks help to capture and monitor audio in real time, while the Vari-Angle touch screen makes it comfortable to shoot at a variety of angles. The Video Snapshot function is a simple way to create a video summary of a travel adventure, combining 4, 6, or 8-second clips to give a digest of memorable events and scenes. An easy to manage codec enables a swift editing workflow and reduced file sizes for storage. 

Full frame today, the RF lens capability of tomorrow 

Canon today reaffirms its ongoing commitment to its recently launched EOS R System and RF Mount, announcing the development of six full frame lenses for release in 2019 in celebration of reaching a production milestone of 140 million EF and RF lenses . Included in the lens development roadmap is the RF 24-240mm F4-6.3 IS USM, the perfect travel companion – practical in both size and performance. This versatile all-purpose lens for the advanced amateur photographer or videographer, offers a range of focal lengths for capturing extraordinary shots. The five other full frame RF lenses currently in development suit the needs of every user from advanced amateurs to professional photographers and videographers, all in pursuit of the perfect shot. Building on Canon’s optical lens heritage, this range of lenses will push forward the frontiers of creative capture thanks to the new cutting-edge optics and advanced image processing for both stills and video.

The Canon EOS RP is a new full-frame mirrorless camera, offering 26 megapixels and using the Canon RF lens mount.

We were shown a final version of the EOS RP by Canon ahead of today's launch. We weren't allowed to take any photos with the camera or of the presentation slides, but did get some hands-on time with the EOS RP.

So read on for our initial first impressions of the new Canon EOS RP full frame mirrorless camera...

Canon only recently launched the EOS R camera back in September 2018, but they obviously feel that they still have some room to grow their market share, hence their announcement of another new compact system camera, this time at a much more aggressive price point.

The lower-resolution, cheaper Canon EOS RP is taking on the likes of the Nikon Z6, Panasonic Lumix S1 and the Sony A7 III, but it significantly undercuts all of those cameras in terms of price - it will be very interesting to see how Canon's rivals respond.

Indeed, it's so cheap that smaller format cameras like the Fujfilm X-H1 and X-T3, Panasonic Lumix G9 and Olympus OM-D E-M1 II are also under threat price-wise from the EOS RP.

With regards to the new camera's name, the P in EOS RP stands for “popular” in Japan, signalling that it's intended as a camera for the masses, just like the 80D and 800D DSLR cameras that have gone before it.

Canon told us that the APS-C EOS-M series will definitely continue as a small, lightweight camera system. Canon feel strongly that it's really important to have a mix of products, both mirrorless and DSLR. There's no question that there’s still a place for the DSLR, as there isn’t just one camera type that suits everybody.

The EOS 5D Mark IV, EOS R, EOS 6D Mark II and the new EOS RP now constitute Canon's mainstream full-frame camera line-up.

The size and weight, or lack of it, is one of the key attractions of the new EOS RP - it weights a mere 485g including the battery and memory card, 440g body only, and measures 132.5x85.0 x70.0mm, making it the smallest and lightest full-frame camera currently available on the market.

The Canon RP is smaller than the EOS 6D Mark II and very similarly sized to the EOS 800D DSLR camera, which is actually slightly heavier at 485g body only.

The chassis is made of magnesium alloy, and it offers the same level of weatherproofing as the EOS 80D.

Note that officially we were using a pre-production camera and the design may change before the final launch, although we wouldn't expect too many tweaks to the body at this late stage.

The EOS RP has 26.2 megapixels, making it the lower resolution model below the EOS R which has 30 megapixels. Canon describe the EOS RP's sensor as being "very, very similar to the 6D Mark II" DSLR, so expect to see similar image quality from the EOS RP.

The EOS RP uses the latest DIGIC 8 processor, so its highest native ISO speed is 40,000, which can be expanded to ISO 102,400 if required.

Autofocusing

Canon continue to use Dual Pixel CMOS AF for auto-focusing on the EOS RP and EOS R mirrorless cameras, inherited from their DSLR range.

The EOS RP's AF system is capable of reacting in just 0.05 seconds, which Canon claim make it the quickest full-frame mirrorless camera in the world, and there are a whopping 4,779 AF points to choose from.

Autofocus also works in low light all the way down to -5 EV, comparable to the Canon EOS R, although note that this is measured using the rather expensive RF 50mm F1.2 lens.

Unlike the EOS R, which offers full frame coverage, the cheaper EOS RP only offers 88% horizontal and 100% vertical coverage.

The EOS RP also boasts a couple of features that the more expensive EOS R doesn't offer, namely Eye AF which works in both the One-shot and Servo AF modes (on the EOS R it only works in One-shot AF mode) and a new Single-Point Spot AF mode. We're unsure at this point if and when these new features will make it onto the EOS R via a firmware update.

Image Stabilisation

Sadly, there stil isn't any image stabilisation built-in to the camera body. There is a new Dual Sensing IS system that reduces camera shake for handheld photography, and also the Movie Digital IS mode provides 5-axis movie stabilisation to counteract shake during video recording, but that's it, so as with the EOS R, image stabilisation is only available if the lens supports it.

Electronic Viewfinder

The Canon EOS RP uses exactly the same viewfinder as the EOS M50 APS-C camera, a 0.39-inch OLED unit with 2.36-million-dots.

There's a 3-inch vari-angle touchscreen display on the rear with 1.04-million-dot resolution, which can be flipped 170° both vertically and horizontally, making it ideal for vlogging or shooting from more unusual angles.

Burst Shooting

In terms of burst shooting, the EOS RP can shoot at 5fps with focus locked at the first frame, or 4fps with continuous focusing, a respectable but hardly earth-shattering rate.

The number of recordable images in a single burst is 50 14-bit RAW images or an unlimited number of JPEGs (until the memory card is full).

The EOS RP can shoot 4K video at up to 25/24p in 8-bit, but there's no Dual Pixel CMOS AF and it's also cropped, both very much like the EOS R and EOS M50 cameras were. 

In 1080p mode the camera can shoot at up to 60fps with Dual Pixel CMOS AF and full-sensor readout.

Focus Bracketing

The EOS RP is the first ever Canon camera to offer focus bracketing. You can take up to 199 shots in total and then blend them together in the Digital Photo Professional software.

Memory Card Slot

The new camera features a single UHS-II memory card slot, just like the more expensive EOS R model.

Battery Life

The EOS RP uses the same LP-E17 battery as the EOS 800D and M50 cameras, providing a CIPA rated life of 250 shots. You can also recharge the camera via its USB port, as well as using the supplied charger.

Connectivity

The Canon EOS RP offers two different connectivity options:

• Bluetooth Create a constant, low-power connection between the EOS RP and a smartphone/tablet to transfer images and video using the Canon Connect smartphone app
• Wi-fi Remotely control the EOS RP via a 2.4Ghz wi-fi connection using a smartphone or tablet and the Canon app, and transfer images and video

Extension Grip EG-E1

The EG-E1 is a nicely designed handgrip extension for the EOS RP, which makes this diminutive camera better suited to those people with larger hands.

New RF Lenses

In addition to the four RF lenses that were launched in 2018, Canon have announced that six more RF lenses will be introduced by the end of 2019. They are:

• 15-35mm F2.8
• 24-70mm F2.8
• 70-200mm F2.8
• 24-240mm F4-6.3
• 85mm F1.2 DS - extra bokeh blur
• EOS RP body with EF lens adapter - £1399
• EOS RP with EF 24-105mm STM lens - £1599
• EOS RP with RF 35mm lens - £1799
• EOS RP with EF 24-70mm F4 lens - £1999
• EOS RP with RF 24-105mm lens - £2329
• EOS RP body with EF lens adapter - $1299

Initial Conclusion

Canon have certainly put the cat amongst the pigeons with the pricing of the new EOS RP camera, significantly undercutting the likes of the Sony A7 III, Nikon Z6 and Panasonic Lumix S1. Sure, it can't match those cameras in terms of out-and-out specs, particularly on the video side, but Canon's name and that aggressive price tag should ensure that the RP sells in large numbers, bringing full-frame mirrorless to an even wider audience in the process...

5 Best Lenses For Canon EOS RP (…and 3 to avoid)

The Canon EOS RP is a full frame 26.2 megapixel mirrorless camera that is Canon’s most affordable full-frame camera body.

My favorite lens for this camera would be the Canon 24-105mm f/4 . It’s a very useful focal length range and gives you excellent image quality for the cost.

But depending on what you shoot most, you may want a different option. So keep reading to see my complete breakdown of the best lenses for the Canon RP based on what might be right for you.

Photography Goals uses affiliate links. When you buy products through the links on our site, we may earn a commission.

1. Canon RF 24-105 f/4

This lens covers a wide focal range with a fixed f/4 max aperture which makes it a great lens to keep on your camera in a variety of situations.

The 24-105mm f/4 lens gives you a decent f/4 maximum aperture with a very wide focal range and still delivers very good image quality.

I like this lens for the RP because of its relatively compact size coupled with a big focal range.

You can shoot everyday shots and even some landscapes at 24mm and still have the reach for far away objects at the 105mm end. This makes it the kind of lens that you can put on your RP and leave it there.

I like this option as an everyday lens for this camera a lot better than the RF 24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM that is often sold as a kit lens with it. You’ll get sharper images and better colors as well as the consistent f/4 max aperture across the entire focal length.

The f/4 aperture isn’t the fastest lens in the lineup but it is decent for getting shots in low light. Of course, for very low light situations, you may want to have the 50mm f/1.8 below , but this lens will work in most circumstances.

If you travel a lot and don’t want to bring multiple lenses or are just looking for one lens that can handle the widest variety of shooting situations then this is a great option.

There are some negatives to this lens though.

While I think it’s a great value, it is still not cheap (coming in at over $1000) but compared to the pro-level 24-70 below it’s about $1000 less. It may not be up to the impeccable sharpness and image quality of that lens but it comes pretty close at a much lower price point.

So it really comes down to how much you want to invest in lenses for your RP. If you’re on a tighter budget, then check out the option below.

2. Canon RF 50mm f/1.8 STM

The 50mm is popular, sharp, useful, and affordable.

The 50mm f/1.8 (of the “nifty fifty” as some photographers call it) is one of those lenses that every photographer should have in their bag.

It’s an extremely sharp and well made lens with a wide f/1.8 aperture and the best part is that it’s the least expensive lens in the Canon RF lineup. So you’re getting a ton of value for a low price.

On the full frame RP, the 50mm is considered a “normal lens” which means that the field of view is similar to how we see with our eyes. This also means there is minimal distortion, even along the edges of the frame.

While the fixed focal length may initially seem limiting, this is a great lens, especially for someone learning to improve their photography skills. The wide maximum aperture opens up a lot more possibilities than the average kit lens, such as low light photography and shallow depth of field portraits.

Of course, if budget isn’t a concern and you want a lens that will get you professional results, then check out the lens below…

3. Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8

The 24-70mm f/2.8 is a staple in any pro photographers bag because of the wide variety of shots you can get and the excellent image quality.

The 24-70mm f/2.8 lens is one of the most popular lenses in any lens lineup and for good reason. The combination of the focal range that covers wide to slightly telephoto and the wide f/2.8 maximum aperture covers a huge variety of shot types and shooting situations.

So when it comes time to invest in a high quality lens for your full frame mirrorless RP, this should be your top choice if you want pro-level results and it’s within your budget.

This lens has the “L” designation on it that Canon uses to identify its professional quality lenses.

You’ll get an extremely sharp lens that has great contrast and good color reproduction.

At 900g, it’s not a small lens and is actually on the bigger side of other 24-70mm f/2.8 lenses. But with the size comes a very strong build quality that is weather sealed.

As an added bonus, you’ll get about 5 stops of image stabilization so you can shoot still subjects at slower shutter speeds than you would normally be able to. That means better low light images without having to crank up the ISO.

This lens is also my “Pro Pick” on my list of the best Canon lenses for portraits .

4. Canon 70-200 f/4

Closer to a pro lens (but more affordable) the 70-200 f/4 will work great on the RP for those of you that want some extra reach to shoot things like your kid’s sports.

If you want to use your RP and its 40 frames per second electronic shutter shooting speed for sports and action, then you’ll need a good quality telephoto lens. This 70-200 /4 is perfect for that.

It’s very sharp and focuses fast enough to take full advantage of the exceptional focusing system in the RP.

When you shoot a longer focal lengths, you need a faster shutter speed to avoid blur from handholding the camera and a consistent f/4 aperture can make really help for shooting action when you’re not in bright sunlight.

You’re going to get exceptional image quality in terms of both sharpness and color rendition. This pairs nicely with the 24-105 above to give you a huge focal length range with just two lenses.

Upgrade Option: The Canon 70-200 f/2.8 L IS USM is a professional quality lens and one you’ll find in the bags of most sports and wildlife shooters. The wider max aperture gives you more low light shooting and the lens itself is a bit sharper.

5. Canon 16mm f/2.8

This 16mm f/1.8 gives you a wide angle and a fast aperture for shooting almost any kind of landscape from mountains to astrophotography.

You might be surprised that I didn’t choose one of the wide angle zoom lenses for this pick. To show you why, let’s take a look at some of those options…

Upgrade Options: The 10-20mm f/4 comes in at $2,299 MSRP, the 15-35mm f/2.8 comes in at $2,099 MSRP , and the most affordable wide angle zoom is the 14-35mm f/4 at $1,199 MSRP . Compare this to the 16mm f/2.8 at $299 MSRP and you can see why it’s such an attractive option for most RP owners.

That being said both of those zooms are excellent landscape lenses and if they’re within your budget then I would recommend either of them as they give you more versatility with the focal range and are exceptionally sharp so you’ll be able to take full advantage of the 24.2 megapixel sensor on your RP.

I like the 16mm because you’re getting a lot for a low cost and a small lightweight lens.

If you’re shooting landscapes in remote places where you need to carry your camera and lens while hiking, then the weight savings can make a big difference.

You’re also getting exceptional sharpness with this 16mm lens, so your images will look every bit as detailed as any shot on the wide angle zooms.

In addition, the f/2.8 max aperture makes it a great option even for astrophotography.

Lenses To Avoid For Your RP

The truth is that there really aren’t many bad lenses in the Canon RF system. Canon hasn’t opened up the specs to third-party manufacturers to create their own lenses and they’ve done a great job at making high-quality lenses.

With the adapter you can use Canon’s DSLR lenses too, so you have a massive selection.

That being said, some lenses really aren’t worth getting for this particular camera.

These aren’t necessarily bad lenses. I just don’t think they’re worth the investment given the other options above.

Canon RF 24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM

This is the kit lens that Canon offers as an option with the RP. Compared with the top pick above you’re getting a smaller focal range, smaller maximum aperture, and decreased images quality with some softness around the edges of the frame.

But it’s far less expensive than the top pick above. So why isn’t this a great option for those on a budget?

Well, I think if cost is a concern, then you would be far better off with the 50mm f/1.8 above . For a similar price, you’ll get a much sharper lens and an f/1.8 max aperture.

Canon RF 24-105 f/4-7.1

The main thing that makes me not want to recommend this lens is the f/7.1 maximum aperture at the longer (105mm) end.

When you shoot at longer focal lengths, you need a faster shutter speed. Plus this is a focal length you may want to use for shooting sports or wildlife as well, which also tend to require faster shutter speeds.

So being limited to a maximum of f/7.1 means you’ll be using some very high ISO settings to get the right exposure. While the RP is decent at higher ISOs, it has its limits.

So if you want that extra reach for things like action, then its worth investing in the f/4 version above .

But if you are constrained by budget, then you may also be better off using this Canon RF to EF adapter and finding a used EF mount lens with a faster aperture for a better price.

Canon 15-30 f/4.5-6.3

Similar to the 24-30 above, you can get much better image quality and a better max aperture with a prime lens in this focal range such as the 16mm f/2.8 above .

What To Look For When Choosing A Lens For Your Canon RP

In addition to the usual things you look for in a lens like image quality, sharpness, and a large maximum aperture, there are a few things specific to the Canon RP that you may want to think about.

Choosing a lens is much more than just finding the “best” lens for the RP.

The Canon RP is an entry level full frame camera, which is a little bit of an in-between choice as it gives you the image quality of full-frame but with less features than some of the more pro level bodies.

Which means that les choice is highly dependent on what you want to shoot (which is why I tried to break down the choices above by what you want to shoot).

For example a 50mm prime lens is great for shooting portraits and everyday photos, but it might not be wide enough to get a great landscape shot on that same camera.

So you would have to decide whether you want a lens that does a decent job for both or two lenses that are excellent for each specific type of shot.

Future Upgrades

The RP is a very capable full frame camera. But as an entry level full-frame camera, its often a stepping stone to more “pro-level” cameras in the future.

The good news is that the RF mount is relatively new by Canon and it seems all of their development is focused on new lenses for the RF mount.

That means that any lens you get for the Canon RP should work seamlessly with any future RF bodies. That is also why I wouldn’t recommend buying any new E mount lenses if you have a Canon RP (unless you’re limited by budget) because you’ll just be buying old tech.

Price vs. Quality

One of the main reasons I recommend photographers on a budget get a low cost prime lens as opposed to a cheaper kit lens is that you’ll get a much higher quality image for the dollars you’ll be spending.

I started a portrait photography business with just a camera body and a 50mm f/1.8. I couldn’t have done the same and gotten the same results for my clients with a kit lens.

So consider this when making your lens choice. Of course the big expensive f/2.8 zoom lenses are amazing, but they’re also thousands of dollars. So if that’s within your budget, then go for it, but if not consider those very high quality prime lens options.

Mirrorless Camera Reviews

Canon eos rp mirrorless camera review: full frame for everyone.

( Editor’s Note : You can see 15 additional full resolution test images we shot with the Canon EOS RP here . You can read our review of the Canon EOS R here .)

If you’ve been lusting after a full-frame mirrorless camera, but thought you couldn’t afford one, it’s time to reconsider. That’s because the new Canon EOS RP is significantly less expensive than other full-frame mirrorless cameras, yet boasts an impressive array of advanced features, robust weather-resistant construction, and impressive performance to boot.

In fact, at $1,299 for the body , and $2,399 in a kit with the Canon RF 24-105mm fl4 L IS USM lens , the new 26.2MP EOS RP is a thousand bucks less expensive than the recently introduced 30.3MP Canon EOS R mirrorless camera . The Canon EOS RP is also significantly lighter and smaller than its big brother, yet it compares favorably in a number of areas.

But don’t be fooled by the entry-level price of the new Canon EOS RP. While it may be designed as an entry level mirrorless camera, the Canon RP not only delivers the benefits of an advanced full-frame CMOS sensor, but features a bright OLED electronic viewfinder with 100% coverage, fast and precise autofocus, and a myriad of live view functions.

As someone who owns and regularly uses a number of different cameras, intuitive operation and a clean menu system is near the top of my list. Otherwise I find myself reaching for an instruction manual before I go out shooting with a camera I haven’t used in a while. This is likely true for many photographers, and certainly makes my life easier when reviewing cameras for Shutterbug .

In fact, my view is than an experienced shooter should be able to quickly and easily navigate 85-90% of the camera’s features without reaching for the manual. This is certainly the case with the Canon EOS RP, and if you run into a bind, the camera includes on-screen captions when in the Visual Guide mode, as well as a Creative Assist mode for applying unique effects to your images.

Camera Build, Layout & Handling One method Canon used to keep the price down on the EOS RP, is they’ve constructed the body with a combination of high-quality plastics and tough, lightweight magnesium where it counts. The result is rugged, rigid camera with a high-quality feel that belies its weight of only 17.3 ounces.

Another cost-saving measure has to do with the manner in which Canon achieved the camera’s dust and weather resistance, which I noticed immediately upon opening the battery/card compartment that has nary a gasket in sight. It turns out that Canon opted for tight tolerances and overlapping body channels to give the EOS RP the same weather-sealing rating as their Canon 6D Mark II DSLR.

Control layout and handling are definitely subjective considerations, and for me the Canon EOS RP is a mixed bag. I have relatively small hands, and the little EOS RP, with its large comfortable grip, is a perfect fit. Those with large hands may feel differently. Another positive for me is the camera’s clean top deck with the ON/Off dial, Mode dial, and Quick Control dials recessed into the top of the camera—slightly overlapping at the back so you can make changes without inadvertently modifying a setting. There’s also a recessed Lock lever that accomplishes the same thing.

On the downside, I’m a big fan of physical buttons for accessing regularly used features, and the Canon EOS RP lacks buttons for directly activating EV-Compensation, white balance, or ISO settings. It’s a simple matter to accomplish these tasks using a Multi-Function button atop the camera, or the rear touchscreen panel, but both require an extra step.

Another gripe is the placement of the Canon RP’s Menu button in the upper left corner of camera back, adjacent to the viewfinder, instead of on the right where you navigate the menu and modify settings with your thumb—without holding the camera in two hands. These misgivings notwithstanding, I found the camera very comfortable to hold and easy to operate.

While I generally prefer optical viewfinders, the bright and precise OLED electronic viewfinder on the Canon EOS RP features 2.36 million dots with a high-eyepoint design and touch-and-drag AF, and was a pleasure to use. Likewise, the rear vari-angle LCD touchscreen was impressive, with brightness adjustable in seven levels and a foldaway design to protect the screen when not in use. Another nice feature is that the brightness of the EVF and LCD monitor can be adjusted individually for optimum performance.

The new Canon EOS RP utilizes the same 54mm diameter lens mount with short back-focus as the high-end EOS R. That means both cameras not only work seamlessly with Canon RF lenses, but are compatible with Canon EF, EF-S, TS-E, and MP-E lenses with the use of one of three optional mount adapters—a big advantage for those who already own some nice Canon glass.

Features and Performance When my Canon EOS RP test unit arrived, I decided to give the camera a whirl along the Mississippi River and in a couple bayous of Southern Louisiana. A nearby train track and a bike path atop the levee provided an opportunity to shoot moving subjects, as did some birds in the bayou. The camera kit came with a versatile Canon RF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM lens, meaning I had to approach birds and other critters with stealth because I didn’t have a telephoto lens available.

The camera/lens combination actually worked out quite well, and the intermittent rain (which forced cancellation of several Mardi Gras parades) wasn’t a concern due to the weatherproof capabilities of the Canon EOS RP.

I found the Canon RP’s articulating rear LCD particularly helpful when shooting wildlife in Live View mode from a very low angle. And even when the sun periodically broke through the clouds, the LCD was easy to view—especially when the brightness was ramped up. For those of you who’ve never spent a day slogging through a muddy shoreline with an ultralight mirrorless camera, instead of a heavy DSLR, let’s just say I didn’t need to jump in the Jacuzzi as soon as I returned home.

When shooting from a standing position I used the Canon RP’s viewfinder, while selecting a small, single autofocus point for stationary subjects—recomposing after focus was confirmed. For moving subjects like birds in flight, I expanded the focus area and used the camera’s 5 frames per second (fps) continuous shooting mode.

The affordable EOS RP utilizes a sophisticated phase-detection dual-pixel AF system, with 4,779 user-selectable autofocus points. The camera offers a choice of One-Shot AF, AF Servo, and Manual focus modes, and with f/1.2 lenses can autofocus in light as low as -5EV. AF points can be quickly selected using the rear touch screen or the Main Dial, Quick Control Dial, or four-way cross keys on the back.

In practice, using my simplified settings, the Canon RP achieved precise focus almost instantaneously, with nary a missed shot—other than those resulting from “operator failure.” Canon claims the RP can focus as fast as 0.05 seconds with the RF 24-105mm fl4 L IS USM lens I was using. Impressively, the camera has a wide AF coverage area of 88% horizontal 100 vertical.

I was also impressed with the exposure control system of the Canon EOS RP. I mostly used the camera’s AF-point Evaluative metering mode, occasionally choosing Spot metering which covers a 2.7% area at the center of the screen. Other options include Partial metering, covering a 5.5% area at the center of the screen, and Center-Weighted average metering.

The camera offers exposure compensation, which I tend to use frequently, in ±3 stops in 1/3 or 1/2-stop increments. For difficult lighting conditions, I’d prefer a wider range, and, again, I missed having a physical EV compensation button on the camera. All of my shooting was done during the day, under mostly dim conditions, so I never used an ISO setting above 1600.

The Canon RP boasts an ISO range of 100-40,000 for stills that’s expandable up to ISO 102,400. When shooting video, the ISO range is 100-26,600 (100-12,800 for 4K video).

Image Quality The new EOS RP uses the same Canon-developed DIGIC 8 image processor as Canon’s premium EOS R full-frame mirrorless camera. The self-cleaning sensor unit removes dust adhering to the low-pass filter and can be configured to automatically perform its duties at power off, when Multi Shot Noise reduction or HDR Mode is set, or manually.

I was generally pleased with the images captured with the EOS RP and RF 24-105mm fl4 L IS USM lens. The combination consistently delivered a wide range of tones, accurate color rendition, good contrast and sharpness, and plenty of details in the highlights and shadows.

Shooting in the highest quality JPEG setting, images needed little or no added sharpening, saturation, or exposure adjustments in post processing. For me, the EOS RP’s 26.2MP resolution hits a nice compromise between image quality, processing time, and storage requirements—especially when framing shots carefully so minimal cropping is required.  

The camera’s Auto white balance setting delivered pleasing results under dim cloudy conditions, and when the sun infrequently peaked out from above. I did notice a very slight amount of highlight clipping under contrasty conditions, but that was easily resolved with a bit of EV compensation.

Conclusion Despite its billing as a full-frame camera for the masses, the affordable Canon EOS RP can be a very able performer when used to its full potential. It’s a good example of a conundrum photographers often face when shopping for a new camera: “Do I devote my budget to the best camera available, or should a buy something more affordable and use the extra cash on an extra lens or two?”

We didn’t shoot much video with the EOS RP, but a glance at the specs tells us this isn’t you best choice if video is your thing. However, if you’re primarily a still photographer looking for a well-built, weather resistant full-frame mirrorless camera under $1,300, the EOS RP won’t disappoint and it’s the only game in town at its price point. And remember: If you carry less weight you’ll likely enjoy photography more.

+ Significantly less expensive than any full-frame mirrorless camera.

+ Compact and lightweight

+ Fast autofocus and performance

- Lack of physical buttons and questionable control layout

-  May be too small for photographers with large hands

-  Not the best choice for shooting video

The Canon EOS RP is the cheapest full-frame mirrorless camera in the Canon line-up. It's been out for a while now, having been launched in 2019, not long after the original Canon EOS R. 

More recently, Canon has launched the EOS R8 , which has practically the same body as the Canon EOS RP but with more advanced internal technologies. But the EOS RP remains on sale and is still one of the best cameras for beginners as well as being amongst the cheapest full frame cameras . The best Canon cameras might be more advanced technically, but they. are also a lot more expensive than the EOS RP, which is still a powerful tool for stills photography, even today. When choosing the best lenses for the Canon EOS RP, we're keeping three key factors in mind. First, the EOS RP is a budget-friendly camera, so as far as possible we've kept to lenses which are also inexpensive to buy. Secondly, as well as being very affordable, the RP is also very compact and light, so the last thing you want is big, heavy lenses that will leave it feeling unbalanced and more awkward to use. Third, the regular 24-105mm kit lens usually sold with the EOS RP is already very versatile, so we've chosen additional lenses which do things that this one can't, or let you take your photography in different directions. So that's all the explanations done with… let's get on with the list!

Our expert review:

Specifications

Reasons to buy, reasons to avoid.

If you own an EOS RP you probably have this lens already, as it's the standard kit lens option. But if you don't have this lens, or you're weighing up whether to get the EOS RP and this lens as a kit, here's our answer: do it! Kit lenses don't always have a good reputation for performance, especially when they have a longer than usual focal range like this one, but in fact the Canon RF 24-105mm f/4-7.1 IS STM is a real cracker, offering very good sharpness right across the zoom range – though like many Canon RF lenses it relies on digital corrections applied in-camera or in raw processing software. The f/4-7.1 maximum aperture is pretty weak, it has to be said, but then the RF 24-105mm f/4-7.1 IS STM hits back with remarkably effective optical stabilization, which is a definite advantage given that the EOS RP does not have its own in-body stabilization.

2. Canon RF 24-240mm f/4-6.3 IS USM

We call a lens a 'superzoom' if it has a zoom range of 10x or more, so the Canon RF 24-240mm f/4-6.3 IS USM certainly qualifies. It doesn't just replace a regular kit lens but potentially a telephoto lens too, so it may be the only lens you need. This does come at a cost, though, in both size and outlay. It's very light for a superzoom, but it's still a fair size, especially on an EOS RP body. We also find that superzoom lenses are pretty average optically, especially at longer zoom settings, but the good news here is that the RF 24-240mm f/4-6.3 IS USM is remarkably good. It does rely on digital corrections, either in-camera or in your raw software, but if that's the price for this level of optical quality, then it's surely worth paying. If a superzoom is what you need, this is one of the best we've seen.

3. Canon RF 15-30mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM

Canon does make some extremely good professional lenses which, unfortunately, command extremely high prices. So all credit to the company for keeping beginners and budget buyers in mind with a range of excellent lower-cost 'consumer' lenses. The Canon RF 15-30mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM is one of these, offering an excellent ultra-wide zoom range at an equally excellent price. The only drawback is the rather slow f/4-6.3 maximum aperture range, but this lens does come with image stabilization to help get sharp shots in low light. Like Canon's other low-cost lenses, this one doesn't come with weather sealing, but do you actually need it. If you're the sort of photographer that doesn't stand in the rain taking pictures, then probably not. Good build quality, handling and performance make this lens well worth the money, for travel, architecture, interiors and landscape photography.

4. Canon RF 100-400mm f/5.6-8 IS USM

Long range telephoto lenses can get pretty expensive, so the Canon RF 100-400mm f/5.6-8 IS USM is a very welcome alternative. It combines a very useful 4x zoom range with in-built image stabilization which doesn't just reduce camera shake, but keeps distant subjects steadier in the viewfinder. There are downsides, such as the fairly slow f/5.6-8 maximum aperture, and there are no weather seals either. This might not be an issue for you in other lenses, but if your subjects cause you to spend long periods outdoors in bad weather, it could be an issue here. The image quality is very good, though, especially at this price, and only drops off if you use the longest zoom setting to focus on subjects close to the camera. 

5. Canon RF 50mm f/1.8 STM

A 50mm lens is often recommended as the first extra lens to get because it's an inexpensive accessory that can teach you a lot about photography, like 'zooming with your feet' as well as offering a much faster maximum aperture than a kit zoom. The Canon RF 50mm f/1.8 STM is small and light, it focuses quickly and delivers really good image quality, especially considering its price. The smallest optic for the EOS R system, it's a fantastic everyday lens that pairs well with any RF body – and is particularly perfect with the Canon EOS RP if you want a sleek, street-friendly setup.

6. Canon RF 16mm f/2.8 STM

Ultra-wide lenses are typically very expensive and, because most ultra-wide lenses are zooms, rather big. The Canon RF 16mm f/2.8 STM is neither! It's small enough to carry around all the time, and wide enough for the widest lanscapes or tiniest interiors. It's not without optical compromises, though. The definition at the edges of the frame isn't great, and it relies completely on digital corrections for distortion and corner shading. If you shoot JPEGs you don't have to worry because the camera will fix these automatically internally, but if you shoot raw files you'll need software that has a suitable correction profile, like Adobe Lightroom . That aside, this an unfeasibly small lens that’s unbeatable value for money. If ever a lens was a no-brainer, it’s this one.

7. Canon RF 28mm f/2.8 STM

Pancake lenses are really popular with photographers who like to travel light with a camera slim enough to fit in any bag or even a coat pocket. The Canon RF 28mm f/2.8 STM certainly delivers on that, and with a useful wide-angle perspective that's great for street photography and travel. Canon's more expensive RF 24mm f/1.8 might be better optically, but it's also physically bigger. The 28mm f/2.8 is about half the price – not to mention something like half the weight – so if you want a nice wide walkabout lens, this is a fantastic option. For both stills and video this is an adaptable and affordable lens that deserves its place in almost every camera bag – especially if you're gearing up for a vacation.

8. Canon RF 35mm f/1.8 Macro IS STM

After a 'nifty fifty', a 35mm prime lens is probably the most recommended prime lens to get. Its wider angle of view makes a 35mm lens a great all-rounder, and it's considered ideal for street photography. With a maximum aperture of f/1.8, the Canon RF 35mm f/1.8 Macro IS STM is already very good value for a fast full frame 35mm prime, but it also throws in image stabilization and a half-size 'macro' capability which doesn't give you full 1:1 macro magnification, but does let you focus much closer than normal. Optically, this is a sharp and consistent lens, though we haven't found the image stabilization to be particularly effective – it's worth having, but we probably wouldn't rely on it too much. Overall, this is great value semi-wide prime that's a very versatile alternative to a 50mm lens.

How we test lenses

We test lenses using both real-world sample images and lab tests. Our lab tests are carried out scientifically in controlled conditions using the Imatest testing suite, which consists of custom charts and analysis software that measures resolution in line widths/picture height, a measurement widely used in lens and camera testing. We find the combination of lab and real-world testing works best, as each reveals different qualities and characteristics.

What are the Best Canon EOS RP Lenses?

Canon released its much-awaited second full-frame mirrorless camera, the  Canon EOS RP in 2019. For beginners, it’s the ideal entry-level full-frame Canon mirrorless camera. As the smallest, lightest, and most budget-friendly Canon EOS camera to date, it gives aspiring photographers an attractive opportunity to start their creative full-frame mirrorless journey. This article will help you find the best Canon EOS RP lenses for your photography needs.

This brand new and incredibly handy camera boasts a 26.2MP full-frame CMOS sensor paired with Canon’s latest DIGIC 8 imaging processor, which allows the camera to produce 4K videos and capture images in low-light conditions. It may not be on the same level as the pricier EOS R , EOS R3 , EOS R5 , or EOS R6 , but, with the right lenses, users will be able to make the most of its full-frame imaging capabilities and produce images of excellent quality.

Canon EOS RP: Why you should choose this camera

So why should you choose the Canon EOS RP ? Quite simply, the Canon EOS RP is one of the best full frame mirrorless cameras for photography you can buy at this price point and camera segment. It’s also a great choice for photographers who wants to take the next step to full frame and invest in a camera and lens system that is truly exceptional. And that’s exactly the Canon EOS R camera and RF lens series lineup.

As the smallest and lightest full-frame camera in Canon’s mirrorless collection, the Canon EOS RP is a great option for photographers who want plenty of features in a small package. One of the biggest draws to the Canon EOS RP is its size. It’s the lightest and smallest full-frame Canon EOS camera ever built. It is perfect for travel and on-the-go photographers. But it also packs so many amazing features into its small size, which makes it such a good camera. 

From the 26.2-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor and DIGIC 8 image processor to its fast and accurate Dual Pixel CMOS autofocus, built-in electronic viewfinder, and vari-angle LCD touchscreen, the Canon EOS RP is a camera built to take your photography to the next level.

Canon EOS RP Lenses & Lens Compatibility

Because of the mirrorless design, lenses for the RP are mounted much closer to the image plane than on DSLR cameras. This results in improved performance and optical quality. You can still take advantage of any of the Canon EFS or EF lenses by using one of the available lens adapters . However, the growing selection of RF lenses is designed to work seamlessly with the Canon EOS RP’s large internal lens mount diameter.

The RP has a 12-pin mount connection for lenses, so communication between the camera and lens is much faster and more detailed than what’s currently available on other camera bodies. The result is faster autofocusing, better metering, more accurate and reliable image stabilization, and improved overall responsiveness.

Canon announced the discontinuation of older EFS and EF lenses, so they’re going all-in on the RF mount. This is great news for photographers who shoot with the Canon EOS RP, ensuring the development and release of even more RF lenses in the future.

Canon already offers a wide range of RF lenses for full frame mirrorless cameras, including prime lenses and versions of popular zoom lenses. Focal lengths from 15mm all the way up to 800mm are available for use with the Canon EOS RP.

Whether you’re looking for a fast prime, a versatile zoom, a shallow depth-of-field lens for shooting macro, or a workhorse full frame lens for shooting weddings, there are so many options to choose from. If you’re waiting for an improved lens lineup before investing in a mirrorless camera like the Canon EOS RP, it just may be time to make the switch.

Below are those dedicated lenses and one EF lens that we would highly recommend you try with the EOS RP.

Are RF Lenses Better than Conventional Lenses?

In some ways the comparison between RF lenses and conventional lenses is an unfair one to make.

Conventional lenses have been the dominant type of lens on the market for decades. Through tough manufacturer competition and the growing demands of the photography industry, Canon has developed plenty of exceptional EFS and EF lenses featuring ultra-fast glass, low dispersion elements, impressive image stabilization, and highly responsive auto focus.

If you’re a tried-and-true DSLR photographer, it’s easy to find fantastic Canon lenses capable of achieving the apertures, shutter speeds, and image qualities you’re looking for.

Better for Full-Frame Mirrorless Cameras

If you’re a full-frame mirrorless convert, then RF lenses will always be the superior choice for you. When a lens is designed specifically to integrate seamlessly with a camera body, that lens will always be the optimal choice.

While lens adapters make it easy to use your existing EFS and EF lenses with mirrorless cameras like the Canon EOS RP, you may be sacrificing speed and a bit of functionality. Introducing an extra element like a lens adapter gives you one more potential point of delay or miscommunication.

Better Technology

Additionally, because Canon is focusing all of its attention and energy on developing their range of full-frame mirrorless lenses, the technology in these new additions tend to outshine their DSLR equivalents. This means faster glass, improved stabilization, more responsive autofocus motors, and other clever developments that simply weren’t possible with DSLR technology.

The bottom line is this: if you were to compare the performance of an EF lens on a DSLR body to an RF lens on a mirrorless body, the results may be similar. But if you’re determined to shoot with a fantastic new camera like the EOS RP, then a mirrorless lens is the way to go.

What’s the Difference Between RF and EF Lenses?

There are a few key differences between RF and EF lenses. Some of these are relatively technical and complicated while others are more straightforward.

Lens to Camera Communication

The RF lens mount uses 12 contact pins to facilitate communication between the camera body and the mirrorless lens. The EF lens mount only uses 8 pins. That seemingly small difference results in much faster lens to camera communication, improved autofocusing, faster transfer speeds, and better image stabilization.

Image Stabilization

Thanks to the 12-pin system and other beneficial upgrades like faster camera processors, RF lenses are better equipped to evaluate real-time camera shake and blur. Image-stabilized RF mount lenses have dual gyro sensors, which help the camera pick up on accidental movement and shake.

The result of this improved image stabilization technology is crisper images in low-light settings.

Upgraded Lens Mount

The mount for Canon EOS RP lenses and lenses for other mirrorless cameras feature a significantly shorter flange-mount distance, or the distance between the back of the lens and the image sensor. The lens mount is also wider than EF lens mounts. These lens mount upgrades result in reduced aberrations and clarity issues while improving low-light performance.

Many of the zoom RF lenses also feature a constant maximum aperture at all focal lengths. This is a huge bonus when using longer focal lengths like 200mm or beyond.

Size and Weight

With a compact camera system like Canon’s mirrorless cameras, it’s helpful to have more lightweight lenses to choose from. As Canon continues to grow its lens lineup, they also prioritize compact elements and lightweight components.

As a result, shooting with RF lenses guarantees a reduction in the weight of your camera kit and helps boost photographer stamina by reducing fatigue. Every little bit helps.

Do all Canon lenses fit all Canon cameras?

Unfortunately, the answer is no. Every Canon camera series is designed to optimally perform with its corresponding lens mount. Each lens mount has different design features that allow for maximum performance and communication between the lens and the camera.

For example, Canon’s EF mount is made for its full frame DSLR cameras. The newer RF mount is made for the EOS R line of full frame mirrorless cameras. The EF and RF mounts are similar but not interchangeable. While both are 54mm wide, the RF mount has a much wider mounting flange, which allows for the lens to sit much closer to the camera sensor. This shorter distance to the sensor, referred to as Flange Back Distance (FBD), allows for lenses to be designed much faster and smaller than EF series lenses. The RF mount also has a 12-pin communication system, versus the EF mount’s 8-pin communication system, which allows for greater communication between the camera and lens.

The Canon camera series go with their specific lens series/mount as follows:  

• RF series lenses and RF mount → Canon full frame mirrorless EOS R cameras
• EF series lenses and EF mount → Canon full frame DSLR cameras 
• APC-S series lenses and APC-S mount → Canon crop-sensor APC-S cameras
• M series lenses and M mount → Canon M series cameras

Fortunately, for Canon shooters who have invested in a specific series over time, there is good news. Here is a breakdown of which Canon camera systems are compatible with which Canon lens systems: 

• EOS R full frame mirrorless cameras → Compatible with RF series lenses and EF series lenses, with the EF-EOS R lens mount adapter attached 
• Full frame DSLR cameras → Compatible with EF series lenses only 
• Crop-sensor APC-S cameras → Compatible with APC-S series lenses and EF series lenses, with a 1.5x crop factor due to the smaller sensor size
• M series cameras → Canon M series lenses and EF series lenses, with the EF-M lens mount adapter attached

Does the Camera or the Lens Make a Bigger Difference?

In many ways the answer to the question of lens vs. camera depends on who you ask.

Some photographers believe that megapixels reign supreme. They believe that the best camera on the market with the newest technology and the most impressive specifications will result in better images and higher image success rates.

On the other hand, there are photographers in the world who take photographs with inexpensive, low-megapixel, and somewhat-obsolete cameras. And yet, they’re capturing breathtaking images that demonstrate superior framing and understanding of photographic principles.

Ultimately, your success is more about what you know how to do than it is about what tools you use to achieve your shots. If you have a bit of extra money set to aside and you’re trying to decide between upgrading your camera or your lenses, here are a few things to consider.

What’s Missing from Your Kit?

When you shoot, do you feel like your camera is struggling to process your images? Are you constantly let down by your maximum frames-per-second capabilities? If so, a new camera may be a more important investment.

Do you find that you love the performance of your camera, but you’re constantly wishing you had better low-light performance, improved autofocus, more expansive focal lengths, or greater control over depth of field? In those circumstances, investing in the right lens may be the perfect upgrade for you.

Futureproof Your Kit

The undeniable fact is that photography is trending toward mirrorless cameras. The expansive selection of Canon EOS RP lenses is evidence that mirrorless technology is on the rise.

If you’re planning on making any investments toward your photography kit, it’s a good idea to investigate making the switch to mirrorless cameras and lenses to futureproof your investment.

The best lenses for Canon EOS RP

What lens to get for your canon rp .

Released in February 2019, the Canon EOS RP  is a lighter, more compact and less expensive version of its predecessor, the Canon EOS R. This new camera is optimized for the RF lens range but can also receive EF and EF-S lenses with the Canon adapter. Despite its light weight made possible by the use of alloys, its seals are waterproof and dust-resistant.

This mirrorless body uses the new Canon technology that reduces the distance between the sensor and the lens with the new 54 mm mounting and 16-pin connector. This makes it possible to be more responsive.

Autofocusing with its 4779 possible positions takes only 0.05 seconds to focus. The covered area is 100% high and 88% wide. The Canon EOS RP is equipped with a full-format 24 x 36 CMOS sensor with 26.2 million pixels and the DIGIC 8 processor. The ISO range of 100 to 40,000 makes it possible to photograph in low-light conditions. The speed ranges from 30 to 1/4000 s.

You can also benefit from the detection of the eye in autofocus and a 7.5 cm touch screen mounted on a swivel, very versatile, used among other things to select autofocus points.

• Lightest, smallest full-frame EOS camera
• RF mount compatible with RF lenses and EF/EF-S lenses with optional mount adapter
• High image quality with 26.2 Megapixel Full-frame CMOS Sensor and DIGIC 8 Image processor

However, there is no stabilizer on the sensor but a digital stabilizer. A silent mode is available, only in automatic mode. The burst of 5 frames per second is not really effective for action photography. The 4K video recording is done with 1.7 frame, the box is equipped with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, HDMI output.

An adapter ring allows the use of EF and EF-S lenses, without loss of quality (but only 720p will be available in video mode…).

The LP-E17 battery slot is under the case, near the SD card. The autonomy is about 250 shots. Ergonomically speaking, the grip is comfortable and the traditional dial with top-mounted shooting modes makes it easy to use. In fact, of all the new full-format hybrid cameras recently released (Nikon Z6 and 7, Sony A7III), it has the most comfortable handle to hold and the lightest (only 485g with battery and SD card).

Ideal for travel, the high performance and affordable price of this camera will certainly interest the general public and amateurs who want to discover photography with a full-format sensor camera. this selection of the best lenses compatible with the Canon RP can help you choose the right tool for your photo style. Although the selection is limited at this time, it will grow over time and this article will be updated when necessary.

Canon RF 24-105mm f4L IS USM

Canon rf 28-70mm f/2l usm, canon rf 35mm f/1.8 macro is stm, canon rf 50mm f/1.2l usm.

• Comparative table
• Useful accessories

This versatile zoom is offered as an entry kit into the EOS R market. Perfect for shooting all kinds of scenes such as streets, portraits or landscapes, with a minimum focusing distance of 45 cm, its 5-speed stabilizer and USM engine, it is a balanced, robust and waterproof tool. Responsive and space-saving, it avoids frequent optical changes and its constant maximum aperture at f/4 makes it bright. In manual mode, the distances are displayed in the viewfinder. Once again, the great novelty is the increased reactivity and sharpness of the image resulting from the 54 mm frame and its 12-pin connectors.

All the objectives of the range are designed in this way and represent tools for the future. A new control ring at the end of the lens allows the assignment of functions such as aperture, exposure compensation, shutter speed, etc. In video, fluidity is also ensured. Note that a zoom lock button is available for transporting the camera.

• Compact, high-quality Lens with broad zoom range for the EOS R system
• Bright, constant f/4.0 zoom Lens
• First L-Series Lens with Nano USM

This new 28-70mm is really THE zoom above all, from a technical point of view. The quality of the recorded images is very surprising. With a constant aperture at f/2, it reaches an exceptional speed even at low speeds. A minimum aperture of f/22 gives a nice depth and a very detailed image. At first glance, his weight may seem a little off. However, the grip remains stable once the zoom is installed on the Canon EOS R. The lack of a stabilizer becomes uncomfortable in low light. It is more difficult to use correctly. For manufacturing, it consists of 19 lenses divided into 13 groups.

Its satin texture repels dust. An easily accessible button blocks the zoom when transporting it. The minimum focus requires 39 cm and the AF is silent. Like the other lenses in the range, a ring for personalized use is placed on the lens, allowing use adapted to the habits and needs of each photographer. It can be considered as part of the professional objectives. Its price is also intended for professionals or amateurs with a BIG budget!

• Bright, constant f/2 USM zoom Lens
• L-series Lens with high image quality
• Control ring for direct setting changes

Compact lens, this 35 mm 305 g lens has a maximum aperture of f/1.8 and a minimum aperture of f/22. It allows a focus at 17 cm and offers a reproduction ratio close to 1:2. We obtain a quality bokeh and its optical stabilization system compensates up to 5 EV. An STM engine provides smooth transitions that are highly appreciated in video applications. It is also equipped with a ring to be set which is close to the one used for focusing. There can be confusion between the two despite their different finishes.

As with the other lenses in the range, the distance scale is displayed on the viewfinder. However, it has a vignetting with a large diaphragm aperture. The cheapest in the RF range, it has no waterproofing treatment. Its lenses are not in the L range but have undergone a Super Spectra treatment on the surface.

It is a lens that allows you to take sharp pictures and its versatility is appreciated. Very useful for street photos, portraits or close-ups, its small size makes it a very popular tool. It is delivered with a sun visor.

• Compact macro Lens with 0.5x Magnification Ratio
• Minimum Focusing Distance of 0.56 ft. ; 0.17M
• Control Ring for direct setting changes

Very bright lens, the 50mm RF series allows to obtain high quality images and its high quality manufacturing makes it an excellent purchase despite its very high price. With a large aperture at f/1.2, pictures taken in low light are very successful. There is still a darkening at the corners. The minimum shooting distance is 40 cm and the minimum aperture is f/16.

The dive is excellent and homogeneous on all beaches. To make it so bright, the Canon RF 50mm f/1.2L USM, is made of 15 elements grouped into 9 groups. Its finish is the same as the others in the series, namely smooth black. There is also the very practical ring to set up and a manual or automatic focus selector. Another selector limits the focus from 80 cm to infinity. A USM motor ensures autofocus, which remains noisy. It’s embarrassing when using video. Another negative point is that there is no stabilizer for this lens.

• Fixed focal length, Lens with high image quality and bright f/1.2 aperture for the EOS R system
• Minimum focusing distance of 1.31 ft. /0.40M. Filter Size: 77mm
• A control ring for direct setting changes

IMPRESSIONS CRÉATIVES

Gardez vos souvenirs en mémoire avec le Canon Photo Cube

Les images imprimées sont un excellent moyen de conserver vos souvenirs. Dans un monde où les gens prennent constamment des photos de ce qui se passe autour d'eux, il y a quelque chose de précieux à imprimer ses images préférées pour les encadrer, les suspendre ou les exposer fièrement dans son espace. L'un des meilleurs moments au retour d'un grand voyage est de le revivre à travers les photos que vous avez prises. Elles immortalisent les aventures, les expériences et les rires, et constituent ainsi des souvenirs qui resteront gravés dans votre mémoire pendant de nombreuses années. Lorsque vous réfléchissez à la manière d'exposer ces images, vous avez la possibilité de les présenter de manière simple et créative grâce au Canon photo Cube , disponible en plusieurs packs . Mesurant 14 x 13,9 x 13,5 cm, le Photo Cube est un excellent moyen de stocker de petites photos carrées et de les afficher sur ses côtés. Il peut être placé n'importe où dans la maison : tables basses, étagères, armoires, etc. Il est également léger, ce qui permet de le déplacer facilement où bon vous semble.

Le Canon Photo Cube est conçu pour stocker et afficher des images carrées. Vous pouvez donc utiliser n'importe quelle imprimante Canon capable de gérer le papier photo carré de Canon. Si vous achetez un pack Photo Cube (à prix réduit ou créatif) comprenant des cartouches d'encre, n'oubliez pas de vous assurer qu'elles sont adaptées à votre imprimante.

Capture de photos pour un Photo Cube à thème

Quelle que soit l'utilisation que vous prévoyez de faire de vos photos, il est utile de réfléchir aux options de sortie dès le moment où vous les prenez. Comment votre photo sera-t-elle imprimée ? Quel type d'images serait le plus approprié sur un cube de 14 x 14 cm ? Il peut être utile d'emporter un appareil photo adéquat lors de votre voyage ou de vos vacances afin de garantir la qualité des images que vous imprimerez. Lorsque l'occasion mérite bien plus qu'un instantané sur un smartphone , un appareil photo tel que le Canon EOS R100 offre une qualité d'image impressionnante et une grande facilité d'utilisation, avec des modes technologiques et automatiques très pratiques, dans un format suffisamment léger pour ne pas vous encombrer. Quel que soit l'appareil photo que vous choisissez, il est conseillé de prendre des photos dans la plus haute résolution possible et, idéalement, au format RAW . Vous aurez ainsi plus de latitude pour recadrer un détail ou une zone que vous souhaitez imprimer, tout en conservant la netteté et les détails de l'image. Lorsque l'on pense aux images de vacances, il est naturel d'imaginer des scènes pittoresques et bien éclairées, où le soleil illumine parfaitement les sujets, mais ce n'est pas toujours le cas. Le plus important est de capturer une représentation fidèle du sujet et de l'instant présent. Dans cette optique, n'oubliez pas que les photos prises sur le vif peuvent capturer un moment encore mieux que les photos soigneusement composées et posées. Vous pouvez toujours les recadrer et les améliorer par la suite - nous y reviendrons. Profitez des fonctions de l'appareil photo, telles que les modes automatiques et l' autofocus . Si votre appareil photo offre l'option d'autofocus par suivi oculaire, comme c'est le cas des appareils photo Canon du système EOS R , vous n'aurez pas à vous soucier de la netteté de la mise au point de vos sujets. Découvrez d'autres conseils pour prendre des photos qui seront parfaites pour l'impression .

L'utilisation d'un trépied tel que le Canon Tripod Grip HG-100TBR , utilisé ici avec un Canon EOS R10 , est un excellent moyen de prendre un selfie saisissant sur le terrain. Vous pouvez commander l'appareil photo et déclencher l'obturateur à distance à l'aide de l'application gratuite Canon Camera Connect installée sur votre smartphone ou tablette. Les clichés de ce type seront spectaculaires sur un Canon Photo Cube.

Un mélange d'images de lieux emblématiques et de photos de groupe est un excellent moyen de se souvenir à la fois des endroits que vous avez visités et du plaisir que vous avez eu à les découvrir.

Sélection d'images pour votre Photo Cube

L'un des avantages du Photo Cube est qu'il peut être entièrement personnalisé : vous êtes libre de choisir les six photos que vous souhaitez y faire figurer. Au retour d'un voyage, vous aurez probablement beaucoup de photos à choisir, et il peut être difficile de les sélectionner pour trouver les meilleures. Il est utile de réfléchir aux aspects de votre voyage que vous souhaitez précisément exposer. Souhaitez-vous montrer des lieux étonnants et l' architecture majestueuse que vous avez découverte ? Voulez-vous présenter de magnifiques images de couchers de soleil, d' océans et de nature à couper le souffle ? Ou peut-être des sourires et des rires, avec des photos de groupe de vous, de votre famille et de vos amis. Avec le Canon Photo Cube, vous pouvez choisir l'une de ces catégories ou les combiner pour créer une compilation plus complète de votre voyage. Le pack créatif Canon Photo Cube propose en option un cadre Photo Cube, un bloc photo magnétique en acrylique autoportant qui constitue une version contemporaine du cadre photo traditionnel. Il offre encore plus de polyvalence et de choix dans la manière dont vous présentez vos photos. Vous pouvez sélectionner une image ou en changer quand vous le souhaitez. Vous pouvez faire de même sur le Photo Cube lui-même, pour qu'il reste toujours à la page.

Monochrome n'est pas forcément synonyme de niveaux de gris. Vous pouvez appliquer une teinte sépia classique et d'autres effets dans votre logiciel de retouche photo préféré. © Marcus Hawkins

Si vous avez pris des photos au format RAW et que vous les traitez dans DPP, vous pouvez appliquer des teintes et d'autres effets en un seul clic sous la forme de styles d'image, puis les affiner selon vos goûts. © Marcus Hawkins

Ajoutez une touche de créativité en éditant des images pour votre Photo Cube de voyage

Le Canon Photo Cube est conçu pour accueillir et afficher des images carrées. Vous devrez donc recadrer vos photos pour les mettre en valeur comme vous le souhaitez. Réfléchissez à la composition qui en résulte. Vous n'êtes pas obligé de placer vos sujets au centre du cadre. En les décentrant et en appliquant des principes de composition tels que la règle des tiers , vous obtiendrez des photos plus intéressantes. Vous pouvez utiliser une large gamme d' applications d'impression Canon sur votre smartphone ou votre ordinateur pour recadrer, et toutes ces applications vous offrent des options pour modifier vos images et y ajouter des touches créatives. Avec des applications telles qu' Easy-PhotoPrint Editor , vous pouvez ajouter du texte, des cadres ou des symboles pour décorer une image. Avec Canon PRINT sur votre smartphone ou tablette ou Digital photo Professional (DPP) sur votre ordinateur, vous pouvez régler le contraste ou la saturation des couleurs comme vous le souhaitez pour améliorer l'aspect général de votre image. Pour obtenir des effets créatifs, vous pouvez appliquer différents styles d'image dans l'appareil photo ou après coup dans DPP. Il s'agit d'un moyen simple et rapide de donner à une image un aspect particulier, en appliquant une série d'ajustements aux couleurs, aux tons et à la netteté en un seul clic, et, à condition de photographier en RAW, vous pouvez les supprimer ou les modifier à tout moment. Vous pouvez même transformer une image en un cliché noir et blanc intemporel si, par exemple, vous décidez qu'un cube photo noir et blanc s'harmonise mieux avec un décor déjà coloré dans votre maison, créant ainsi un contraste esthétiquement plaisant. Cela pourrait ajouter une touche sophistiquée et aider le cube photo à s'adapter à votre style. Les images en noir et blanc ont toujours eu un certain charme classique. Sans la distraction d'une couleur éventuellement criarde ou visuellement déroutante, le noir et blanc peut également aider les spectateurs à se concentrer sur les sujets, les textures, les formes et les émotions exprimés dans l'image.

Canon propose une large gamme d' applications d'impression répondant à différents besoins, à exécuter sur votre smartphone ou votre ordinateur. La plupart d'entre elles, y compris l'application Canon PRINT , vous permettent de recadrer et d'améliorer vos photos pour les imprimer.

Votre Canon Photo Cube peut être une alternative amusante à l'album de vacances traditionnel. Utilisez vos photos préférées pour décorer l'extérieur de la boîte et rangez vos autres photos du même voyage à l'intérieur pour les regrouper, les revoir ou les partager avec votre famille et vos amis.

Des souvenirs qui durent

Le Canon Photo Cube offre un moyen créatif et unique de mettre en valeur les souvenirs de vacances qui vous sont chers. Sa polyvalence autorise une plus grande personnalisation et vous permet d'afficher une grande variété d'images, qu'il s'agisse de paysages à couper le souffle, de monuments célèbres ou de moments agréables avec vos proches. Les images affichées sur un Photo Cube accrochent le regard et constituent une décoration intérieure ou un souvenir remarquable. Toutefois, pour garantir la pérennité des couleurs et des détails, il est conseillé d'utiliser des encres Canon authentiques lors du procédé d'impression. Ces encres sont conçues pour produire des couleurs vives et durables qui resteront éclatantes et pleines de vie pendant des années. Le Canon Photo Cube est plus qu'un simple dispositif d'affichage de photos, il peut constituer un magnifique souvenir à part entière, en préservant des moments précieux sous une forme compacte, mais efficace.

Purchase of this Service Contract is not required to purchase the Product or to obtain financing for the Product.

Subject to this section, Your original Service Contract can be renewed.

WHAT IS COVERED – GENERAL

In accordance with the SERVICE CONTRACT TERM described above, We agree to procure the necessary services to restore Your Product to standard operating condition at Our discretion, which may result in a replacement of Your originally covered Product in lieu of repair services, if Your Product experiences a Failure or damage from Accidental Damage From Handling ("ADH") or Power Surge.

St. Petersburg in 19th Century Photography

The first photographers of the Northern Capital of Russia, the busy life of the numerous photo studios on Bolshaya Morskaya Street, and early stereophotographs offering stunning urban views

Saint Petersburg is a magnificent city, praised by artists and poets, a landmark, a life-changing place. For more than a century and a half, photography has maintained a dialogue with the city, revealing new facets of its image, hidden from the naked eye of the passerby, telling the Big Story, or merely capturing the daily street life.

In the early 1840s, Saint Petersburg became the photographic capital of Russia, bringing together photographers from all over Europe, both acclaimed and successful, as well as beginners, and welcoming local masters to open their studios.

The exhibition “St. Petersburg in 19 th Century Photography” brings into the spotlight the works by local photographers: Alfred Lorens, Albert Felisch, and Karl Bulla — the creators of iconic views of Saint Petersburg. Despite many technical difficulties and imperfections of the newly developed art technology, they left behind a legacy of emblematic photographic images of our city. In addition to them, the exhibition includes photographs from the albums held in the collection of ROSPHOTO, including the recently attributed album by the De Jongh brothers, French photographers, whose work in the Northern Capital has been little known to researchers until recently.

Early landmark photography attracts both specialists, such as historians, ethnographers, art historians, and archivists, who regard it as a visual source or an independent object of research, and amateurs, who highly appreciate the aesthetic properties of these photographs. And while some people explore the way the author managed to capture clouds in the sky, while being so limited in technical capabilities, or to avoid defects associated with shooting moving objects, others investigate at which point the house, partly seen in the background, was constructed, and when street lamps were installed around a monument, or roadway paved.

The project “St. Petersburg in 19th Century Photography,” dedicated to the 180th anniversary of photography, consists of an exhibition with a multimedia part and a program of lectures. 

Interactive installations will allow viewers to visit the “inside” of an old camera and even create a studio portrait, visually conveying the features of various early printing techniques; travel to the most popular locations for landmark photography; take a look at stereo photographs through a high-quality electronic stereoscope and a modern version of the old apparatus; embark on a virtual tour of the photo studios operating on Bolshaya Morskaya Street in the late 19th century.

The exhibition includes original photographic prints held in ROSPHOTO’s collection, while those that cannot be put on display have been digitally reproduced. Digital technologies allow browsing through an old photo album and examining enlarged old photographs.

I am so incredibly happy I went with Photo Announce It. Deanna and Marlon are a great team and immediately created a bond with my husband and I. They offered an engagement session upon booking them which was genius. The pictures were phenomenal but more importantly it gave us a chance to practice and get comfortable with them before the big day. Every time I spoke with Deanna she was always SO excited to hear from me and was very on point and reassuring. On the day of my wedding it POURED...not a light rain...poured, and Deanna and Marlon were prepared. They brought extra lighting and found great shots to take inside the venue. The pictures that I have seen so far blew me away. They are stunning and I can not wait to see more. I highly recommend working with these photographers because their prices were reasonable, quality of work was high, and their passion shines. I loved working with them.
