Canon EOS RP Camera Black
(2,404 reviews)
Dual Pixel Autofocus Dual pixel CMOS AF, Canon’s distinctive technology in which effective pixel on the CMOS sensor is able to perform both phase-difference autofocusing and imaging functions. Through this, EOS RP can achieve 0.05 seconds focusing speed and 4 779 selectable AF positions that allows greater flexibility when composing an image. Low-Light focusing limit of EV -5 at the central focus point, provides accurate focus even in dimly lit rooms. Eye Detection AF The EOS RP sports the Eye Detection AF, which can detect and focus on the subject’s pupil. Especially useful when shooting wide open on large aperture lens, always ensuring that the eye is in focus—ideal for portrait shooting. This function is also available in Servo mode which means capturing candid genuine expression of moving subjects is now made possible. Imagine an interview of a chef cooking or even as the bride walks down the aisle, and the focus is always locked on to the eye as they move. Designed For Functionality Weighing only at 485g, the EOS RP packs a lot of features in a small magnesium alloy body that provides dust and moisture protection. EOS RP has a customisable built-in 2.36 million-dot high-resolution OLED electronic viewfinder (EVF) with a 100% coverage. For those unusual angle compositions, there’s the 7.62cm Vari-angle touch-screen LCD. The body is well crafted to provide comfortable firm hold, even for long duration usage. Function dials and control ring placed within reach without the users taking their eyes off their subject while shooting.

After some use, you get to know the strengths and weaknesses of the EOS RP. So, the lack of image stabilisation cannot be ignored. Select RF lenses with stabilisation can mitigate this. However, it is a weakness in the system by today's standards. With the resurgence of film photography (hooray!), I imagine it would be a popular decision for Canon to introduce a firmware update for all their mirrorless systems to incorporate new picture style modes (or possibly a scene mode that is semi-automatic or fully manual) to replicate some of that film-shooting nostalgia. In terms of current performance, I am not disappointed. I shoot both RAW & jpg and honestly, I like most of the jpegs that are produced. Only when I have properly gotten the exposure wrong, will I refer to the RAW file to salvage what I can from the shot. Generally speaking (as the lens being used is also a factor), the autofocus is decent enough, though don't expect the camera to lock onto fast-moving objects.

On opening the packed carton there was the EOS RP camera, a Strap, Battery Charger and a Battery Pack. Also, there was relevant paper work and Instruction Manual which gave a comprehensive list of the “working parts” and instructions to set the Camera to operating requirements. The EOS RP Camera is a percentage smaller in size and weight to the “400D” due to not having the working mechanism for the mirror, which in my opinion makes shots easier without the opening of the mirror, and the inbuilt flash. For operating switches and buttons there are less to confuse with. A larger on/off in a clear place on the L/H top side where it will not be bumped easily. On the R/H top side is the Mode Dial for M, Av, P, Auto etc. and also Video to make short motion pictures, a finger Main Dial for speed and a Quick Control Dial for Aperture (when in M mode). On the back of the camera there is a Screen that can be left in situ, opened to the side or turned to face the same way as the lens, (so you can see your selfie). Also on the rear of the camera are several buttons being for the Menu to go through all the primary settings for operation, Set to work in conjunction with the Menu, Info which shows information on the setting of the of the camera and adjust how much you require and View Imagines to see the outcome and if not dispose of. Images can be set to JPEG, RAW or both for processing to finished picture. Images can be kept on an SD Card or transferred quite easily from camera to mobile telephone, laptop/desktop or into Cloud. Having an EF 18-200mm Lens and an EF 18-55 Lens I had to get an Adaptor from EF to EOS R which is easily acquired and works well together. There are only a couple of “minor” things missing in the adaption to the EOS RP. The lack of a built-in flash to me, doing action shots mainly, is not really a loss and the camera has a wide range in the ISO, Aperture and Speed to compensate for low light situations. My Speedlite 580EX ll has come across to the EOS RP and is excellent for portraits or “happy shots”. In my main line of image chasing, I have found that the EOS RP is of very high standard and being of a lighter weight makes it good for a lot of movement over rough ground. It is also terrific for Street Shots and use on a tri-pod for Portraits or on long exposure Star Motion. One useful thing to remember is that the battery has a shortish life, good average 100 shots, so a second is a worthwhile idea

Therefore, my search for a new camera began. I seriously debated nearly every camera in this price range from every manufacturer. Sony, Fujifilm, Panasonic, you name it. However, it seemed like they all had one fatal flaw to them. Sony with their weird coloring, Fujifilm with the overheating issues, Panasonic with the awful autofocus. Some were better at photos, some were better at video. However, I needed something that would do great with both, as I wanted this to be something I could shoot professional portraits with but also shoot vlogs. At the end of the day, all signs pointed to this camera, and I'm so glad this is the one I chose. I'm not a super-advanced user, however, I do think I've moved past the beginner stage of photography and videography. I think this camera really fits me perfectly as I'm not incredibly overwhelmed with options and features that I don't know how to use, but it still has a ton of capability that allows me to learn more about photography and videography. I've also just been using the 24-105 kit lens that comes with this bundle on Amazon. The video on this is amazing. HUGE step up from the T3i. The face detecting autofocus works great and nearly all of my shots are perfectly in focus unless it's super dark which it has a little more of a struggle with but obviously any camera would. I was a little hesitant about the fairly disabled 4k capability with this camera due (disabled dual pixel AF, crop factor, 30 min time limit, 24 fps max) especially since other cameras in the price range have a more robust 4k capability. However, I've found that 1080p meets my needs just fine and looks absolutely gorgeous. It's also much more friendly on the file size and processing in video editing. The photo capability has shocked me even more than the video. I knew this would obviously be a great camera for photos, but I didn't realize what a step up from my T3i it would be. I honestly thought my T3i photos would look just about as good as this camera since the T3i does admittedly take amazing photos. However, this blows it out of the water. The autofocus on this is SO much better. With the T3i, fast moving subjects were nearly impossible to get in focus. This does so much better. The full-frame sensor on this camera makes a huge difference too. The low light performance is so much better and the size of these photos is insane. You can zoom in to the photos so much and it's still amazingly clear. As for the body of the camera itself, it feels incredibly well made. Grabbing my T3i now feels like a cheap plastic toy compared to this thing. It feels very solid and durable. The grip on the camera is incredibly easy and comfortable to hold. The only negative thing I've encountered so far is the kit lens that comes with this bundle doesn't have a physical switch between autofocus and manual focus. You have to go into the camera settings to switch between them. I don't find myself doing this very often as the autofocus is amazing but when I do need manual focus it's a little bit of an inconvenience. Overall, it's an amazing camera and I'm very happy that I went with this one

I always wanted full frame but could never justify the price. It's not just the body price but the lenses as well. An RP + 24-240mm kit suited my budget for travel photography well. A step up from my old 600D with 18-270 zoom. Best of all a cropped photo from this new gear at 240mm had better IQ than a full frame from my old APS-C at 270mm! Wonderful. Also lighter than my old gear. ie Absolutely better off in all respects. Even better - I now have an 100-400 and an R50. The battery and lenses are interchangeable. I've got the best of both worlds for travel at a reasonable price and compatibility. I did consider tele converters. Extra glass - loss of quality and f/stop(s). Having to swap it in and out. I did consider another lens to 500/600. That was going to work ... MoreI always wanted full frame but could never justify the price. It's not just the body price but the lenses as well.

That was going to work out at about the same cost as an R50 + 100-400. I did consider EF options and an adapter. Seemed to defeat the benefits of the R mount and mirrorless body. An R50 + the 100-400 was reasonably priced and allows me to swap cameras without having to change lenses, etc. Yes, it has limitations. But I'm not into video and don't require fast fps, etc. It's for travel photos for me. I've now got FF advantages and have APS-C advantages when I need them too!For travelling, the lens hoods reverse as in the photo. Saves space in my bag and reduces damage whilst travelling.

We bought this camera last year for our daughter to use for her photography uni course. She mainly used it on automatic mode and the photos looked great. I got curious to learn what this camera can really do and so, after 15 years on point and shoot cameras picked this model up and stated a photography course. The camera is a great size, the menu is easy to navigate and the user can either use the touch screen or the directional buttons and dials to navigate. The camera has a lot of automatic modes which work really well but the real fun begins when the semi automatic and manual modes are used. I believe the Fv (flexible priority) function is a great learning tool, its a semi automatic mode where the user can determine which parameters he wants to manually set and ...

The stabilisation in the camera works really well. I only have a 24-240mm zoom lens on my camera but can still hand held shoot to 1/15 without much trouble and with great care lower. The touch screen works really well and is responsive. Overall there are still lots of features like creative assist I haven't used but I can only recommend the camera to an aspiring photographer.

The body is a nice size for a smaller person like myself. It’s light and easy to hold for an extended period of time. This camera is full frame and lowlight capable, which makes it a great fit for portraits. The kit lens is actually decent, although I’ve also invested in the nifty fifty and prefer that immensely. This is incredibly user friendly, especially where the exposure triangle is concerned.

Additionally, this is NOT a great camera for action shots. If you plan to shoot sporting events or anything in motion, keep looking. Most frustrating for me thus far: the user guide sucks. It doesn’t detail how to transfer photos, and isn’t much help as far as actual use is concerned. Luckily, there are an ample number of tutorials on YouTube that have made it a piece of cake to work with.Regardless of the bad, this is a great bang for your buck. Nice quality, very easy to use, and tons of lens options. I would recommend this to anyone looking to get started with a professional camera.

I bought this fine little camera as a Christmas gift for my husband, totally surprising him with it. He's already thrilled with the smaller size and weight - much different from his Canon 7D Mark II - and the transition from that camera to this one seems fairly easy.I got the R7 mirrorless in June and have had a great experience with it thus far, and I chose the RP for him because the two cameras share many of the same great features.Having had 6 months' experience with the R7 made setting up the RP pretty easy. In both cameras, the face and eye detection features work really well. If this bit of AI interests you as a potential buyer, my experience is that Canon has nailed it for these algorithms and I'm sure they'll only improve over time as the software ...

If this bit of AI interests you as a potential buyer, my experience is that Canon has nailed it for these algorithms and I'm sure they'll only improve over time as the software engineers continue to tinker.The kit lens for the RP is certainly adequate for a range of shooting conditions that a hobbyist or semi-skilled photographer might encounter, but of course a maximum aperture of at least 2.8 is to be preferred for greater versatility in shooting conditions.As a high-school sports professional shooter, I have a wide array of Canon lenses that can be swapped around among the two 7D Mark II bodies and now the two RP bodies, so having the kit lens for the RP for my husband as a walking around lens with max of f4-7.1 isn't a huge disadvantage.Plus, the Canon R-mount adapter ring is reasonably priced and also is nothing but air, as is said, so there's no downside to using older lenses except for their weight.The RP is a very nice way to introduce a skilled hobbyist to the world of mirrorless photography in a camera loaded with features at an excellent price point.

We bought this camera last year for our daughter to use for her photography uni course. She mainly used it on automatic mode and the photos looked great.I got curious to learn what this camera can really do and so, after 15 years on point and shoot cameras picked this model up and stated a photography course. The camera is a great size, the menu is easy to navigate and the user can either use the touch screen or the directional buttons and dials to navigate.The camera has a lot of automatic modes which work really well but the real fun begins when the semi automatic and manual modes are used.I believe the Fv (flexible priority) function is a great learning tool, its a semi automatic mode where the user can determine which parameters he wants to manually set ...

I only have a 24-240mm zoom lens on my camera but can still hand held shoot to 1/15 without much trouble and with great care lower.The touch screen works really well and is responsive.Overall there are still lots of features like creative assist I haven't used but I can only recommend the camera to an aspiring photographer.

I'm delighted with this camera. Way back in the days of film I used to do a lot of manual photography (most of it underwater). I decided I wanted to get back in and started with an entry-level full-frame mirrorless camera and the RP fit my needs and my budget perfectly. Despite the fact that the RP was released in 2019, I think it still represents terrific value.I've used it in low-light settings taking pictures of our Christmas lights outside at night. I've used Aperture-Priority and Shutter-Priority mode and it produces far better images than I could obtain with my smart phone.I'm now experimenting with full manual mode and also with the "nifty fifty" STM prime lens. I surely do not have the budget for L-series lenses (and above) but so far I'm very happy with ... MoreI'm delighted with this camera.
