Incredible Low-light Autofocus

EV -6^ Low-light Autofocus

Amazing for nighttime photography or in very low light, the EOS R camera’s brilliant AF can operate in light as dim as a light rating of EV -6^ where other AF systems may fail or search. Phenomenal AF is achieved even when using lenses with high F numbers. This ultra-sensitive AF works in concert with the EOS R’s EVF to clearly capture subjects even when there’s limited light.

Sharp Focus
within 0.05 Sec.^^

0.05 sec.^^ High-speed Focusing

The EOS R camera’s highly responsive Dual Pixel CMOS AF system delivers the world’s fastest AF focusing speed of 0.05 seconds^^. This means fast action can be captured and focus can be maintained with speed, accuracy and ease.

Touch and Drag AF

Touch and Drag AF makes it fast and easy to select a focus point without taking your eye away from the viewfinder. Using the Touchscreen LCD, it’s as simple as pointing to the desired area of focus. The chosen AF point is then displayed in the camera’s EVF for quick confirmation.

Variety of AF Modes

The EOS R camera features an expanded range of selectable AF modes to adapt to specific situations and subjects. For example, with Eye Detection AF, when the EOS R detects a human face, it automatically uses the subject’s eye as the autofocus point and maintains focus as the subject moves through the image frame.

f/8 and f/11 Compatible in All AF Areas

With the EOS R camera, autofocus will operate over nearly the entire image area even when used with compatible f/8 and f/11 lenses. This means the EOS R can easily achieve sharp AF using lenses with smaller apertures, and is even compatible with select EF extenders for uncompromised shooting at an expanded range of focal lengths.

PROFESSIONAL 4K VIDEO

advanced Video Recording

4K 30p, Full HD 60p, HD 120p

Whether shooting videos to share with friends online or serving as a secondary camera on a large production, the EOS R camera offers advanced recording features such as 4K at 29.97 fps, Full HD at 59.94 fps and HD at 119.9 fps. Helpful functions include distortion correction during recording and Movie Digital IS. Additionally, video can be recorded during still photo shooting by simply pressing the Movie Shooting button.

Multiple 4K Formats

4K IPB/ALL-I MP4 H.264

The EOS R camera can record 4K video using IPB or ALL-I compression and save them as MP4 files. This helps provide further flexibility with both file size, image quality and integration with video clips recorded with other cameras.

Excellent details for Post-production

Canon Log

Built-in Canon Log gamma reduces heavy shadows and blown out highlights, delivering movie images with approximately 12 stops of dynamic range (at ISO 400) for excellent shadow and highlight detail. Ideal for post-production and multi-camera set-ups, Canon Log is an indispensable feature that makes the EOS R camera a serious moviemaking performer.

HDMI Output for 4K 10-bit 4:2:2 Video

The EOS R camera features an HDMI port that's useful for outputting recorded video directly to an external drive. For maximum color and dynamic range when shooting with Canon Log, the EOS R can even output 10-bit movie recordings in ITU-R BT.2020 color.

Focus Manually with Ease

Focus Peaking and Dual Pixel Focus Guide

For help when using manual focus, Focus Peaking helps establish the focus area quickly and clearly by indicating the area in focus with a colored line. It’s usable with the Dual Pixel Focus Guide feature, which displays where the position of focus is relative to the subject and is especially helpful when recording movies.
