As Canon\u2019s first full-frame offering in the mirrorless market, the EOS R<\/a> (<\/span>) packs many of the most desirable features and advanced technologies that users have come to expect from mirrorless cameras\u2014plus so much more. Aside from stunning image quality, it offers 4K video shooting, unparalleled low-light performance, and a high-speed autofocus system.<\/p>\n

Geared toward photographers and videographers who require a high-performance imaging tool, the EOS R features a 35mm full-frame CMOS sensor (with approximately 30.3 megapixels) and the powerful DIGIC 8 image processor to capture incredible imagery with the finest details. It\u2019s designed to perform superbly even under the most difficult lighting conditions, thanks to its ISO range of 100\u201340000 (100\u201325600 for regular video and 100\u201312800 for 4K) and integrated Image Stabilization.<\/p>\n

The Dual-Pixel CMOS AF ensures ultra-fast and accurate autofocus, with a focus area of 88 percent by 100 percent and a whopping 5,655 AF points that you can manually select. Users can enjoy a focusing speed of 0.05, impressive low-light AF performance, a range of selectable AF modes, and exciting focus selection capabilities such as Touch and Drag AF, which allows the user to drag their finger on the LCD screen to select a focus point without taking their eye off the EVF.<\/p>\n

New RF Mount<\/h4>\n

The main innovation that ties the EOS R system together is the new RF lens mount. While it retains the large 54mm diameter of the EF mount, it features a new design that allows for a much shorter distance between the rear lens element and the sensor. This helps ensure better optical performance due to the reduced refraction and light bending, resulting in high-resolution results with superb fidelity, sharpness, and clarity. Finally, the new mount has a 12-pin connection to enable high-speed communication between the camera and lens\u2014a feature that contributes to the EOS R being a highly efficient and powerful imaging system.<\/p>\n

Canon is also releasing mount adapters to allow the use of EF\/EF-S lenses with the EOS R mirrorless camera.<\/p>\n
