Canon anti camera with RF bayonet is currently mainly high-end models equipped with full frame image sensors, while the recently launched R7 and R10 models are equipped with smaller APS-C sensors and more approachable price tags The R10 will be available in the UK in July, starting at £ 900 (fuselage only), while the more feature rich R7, starting at £ 1350, will be available in June.
Compared with the high price of professional EOS R5 (£ 4300), R7 and R10 are obviously much closer to the people. Although the price of R7 is higher than that of full frame non reflective EOS RP (£ 1050), it has more functions, providing higher resolution, faster continuous shooting speed and body anti shake (IBIS), which means that R7 provides a better feature set than EOS RP.
R7 is equipped with a 32.5 million pixel image sensor to capture 4K video at 120 frames per second in Canon's log-3 mode for post production. It can shoot full resolution raw files at 15 frames per second using a mechanical shutter or 30 frames per second using an electronic shutter.
It also has the anti shake function of the fuselage, which can provide up to eight stable effects when paired with the stable lens. It's great for multi second exposure without using a tripod. This is an essential feature for video photographers.
R10 lacks Ibis and log-3 video capture functions, but it can still capture raw images up to 23 frames per second through its 24.2 million pixel sensor. It can also play 4K video, but it uses a clipping sensor, which means a more compact viewfinder.
Both models use Canon's RF bayonet lens, which immediately provides them with a wider choice of lenses than Canon's cheaper m-bayonet series APS-C cameras (such as EOS M50). However, RF lenses are very expensive, so keep this in mind if you want to use APS-C cameras as a way to reduce equipment costs.
Canon is releasing two RF bayonet lenses specially designed for APS-C sensors, including 18-45mm F4 5-6.3 and 18-150mm 3.5-6.3, both of which have image stabilization function, and will provide camera lenses in various packages as a kit.
