What owners report

  • “I think the rp is even better than the eos r and eos r6 I’m not even kidding ! [...]”

    after 5 yearsView on YouTube
  • “[...] I will have to use my EFS 17-55mm on my RP to see if using a crop sensor lens on a full frame camera makes for loss of image quality?”

  • “I own both. [...] I've had consistently better results with the R7 in low light. [...] And the battery.... [...] If you've been a Canon shooter with LPE6 batteries too, then that's just another reason to go R7 - carrying two battery formats around when shooting with multiple bodies is a royal pain.”

  • “I have the RP since 2020. What I hate is that Canon blocked third party lenses unlike Sony.”
