Canon EOS RP Review

EOS RP Summary

Big sensor, small price point. The compact EOS RP is Canon's second full-frame mirrorless camera, and while it lacks some bells and whistles, the RP lowers the barrier of entry into the full-frame world in a big way. The Canon RP is one of, if not the most, affordable full-frame cameras on the market today, selling right at $999. With a 26MP sensor, Dual Pixel CMOS AF, 4K video recording and a highly portable design, the little EOS RP is an amazing bang-for-your-buck camera.

Very good image quality; Good high ISO performance; Fast Dual Pixel CMOS AF autofocus system; Eye AF with tracking & video support; 4K video; Good build quality; Excellent value.

No IBIS; Sub-par dynamic range; Burst shooting tops out at 5fps; Poor battery life; Limited video features.

The Canon EOS RP went on sale in March 2019, with an initial body-only retail price of US$1,299 -- the price has since dropped to $999 body-only. Two kit versions are also available: 1) an RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM lens kit with an original retail price of $2,399 (dropped to $1,899), and a kit with an RF 24-240mm f/4-6.3 IS USM lens that sells for $1,899 (reduced to $1,499).
