EOS R

Loved the EOS R's body, battery and ergonomics and wishes Canon would update its sensor.

“Better battery, better ergonomics.”

Owns the EOS R and uses the RP for work, and would take the R as better in nearly every way.

“have the R and use the RP for work. of the 2 I'd take the R. better in nearly every way.”

Loves their EOS R for landscape photography.

“I have the R and just love that thing for landscape photography.”

Says the EOS R is basically a mirrorless 5D IV and a great camera, with touch bar gripes and slow servo AF.

“I have one, it's a great camera.”

Really likes their EOS R and uses it for school basketball with an EF 100mm f/2.

“I have the Eos R and I really like it.”

Has used the EOS R as their main full-frame body since 2019 and hasn't found a reason to upgrade.

“My primary full frame body is an EOS R and have been using it stung 2019.”

Loves their EOS R but finds it poor for sports and wildlife.

“I have the EOS R and I love it but it sucks for sports and wildlife photography.”

Found the EOS R's focus atrocious and its FPS and readout too slow for wildlife.

“I've had the Rand the focus was atrocious, FPS dire for wildlife, sensor readout speed very slow.”

Owns the EOS R, R7 and R6 II; the R still works perfectly for slower work like portraits.

“When working slower (e.g., portraits), the R works perfectly fine, and I still use that camera a lot.”

Has shot with the EOS R for years and praises its build, weather sealing and 30MP, but misses shots at f/1.4 due to its weaker AF.

“Great camera, sturdy build quality, weatherproof and the sweet spot of megapixels.”

Is still happy with their EOS R.

“I’m still happy with my Eos R, r5 looks nice though”

Really loves their EOS R, though their wife's R6 showed it's time for a more modern body.

“I really love my R but after using my wife’s R6 knew it’s been time to get a more modern body.”

Owns an EOS R and R5 and notes both have noticeable viewfinder delay; not the end of the world but they enjoyed an optical viewfinder more.

“Delay is a thing, both my R and R5 suffers from it.”

Owns the original EOS R and an R6 and likes the EOS R's files a little better, calling its 5D IV-derived sensor pretty special.

“I also like the files I get out of the R a little better”

Upgraded from DSLR to the original EOS R and finds it great, with the 5D IV's 30MP sensor; the lack of IBIS hasn't bothered them.

“I just got one my self upgrading to mirrorless from DSLR and it is great.”

Upgraded from a 77D to the EOS R at launch and was blown away by the image quality, later adding an R6 Mark II.

“Upgraded to the EOS R when it came out and I was blown away by the quality.”

Shoots evening marching band and football with the original EOS R and struggles in poor stadium lighting, prompting an upgrade.

“I am at the mercy of the stadium lighting being adequate. My R tends to struggle quite a bit since I need keep the shutter speed fast enough to freeze”

Their EOS R from 2018 developed Err 20/30 shutter faults at only about 50,000 shots.

“although I've had the camera since 2018, it only has around 50,000 shots taken.”

Loved the original EOS R and its images, but the touch bar and missing buttons made them upgrade.

“I loved the first EOS R for what it what was, and the images are still great, but man does it feel awkward going back from an R5.”

Has used the EOS R as a primary camera for 6–7 years for concerts and portraits; still very capable, though behind the R6 in AF.

“I've been using one as a primary camera for 6 or 7 years now.”

Found the EOS R's sensor gave amazing portraits and skin tones, a look they still miss on their R5 Mark II.

“Portraits on the R were just amazing! Perfect skin tones!”

Uses the EOS R for well-lit studio portraits but finds the R6 better at everything else.

“The R is my pick for well lit studio portraits, the R6 does everything else better.”

Moved from the RP to the EOS R; its bigger battery lasts much longer and shows battery life better.

“I owned the RP and then switched over the the EOS R. The bigger battery alone was sooo worth just the upgraded.”

Bought a used EOS R after their 6D II broke; likes no lens calibration and focus peaking, but finds it clumsier.

“my 6D mkII broke this summer (shutter after 32 000 shots) so i got an used EOS R for 750 €.”

Loved the EOS R when they used it, but it isn't strong enough for their video needs.

“I loved the R when I used it. I need my camera for video too much to go with it, so I am looking into the R6.”

Finds the 30MP of their old EOS R was perfect, now shooting an R3.

“the 30MP of my old EOS R was literally perfect.”

The shutter on their EOS R broke and cost about $200-300 to replace at Canon, taking two weeks.

“Mine broke to on my eos R. Think it cost me like 2-300 dollars to replace from canon.”

Hasn't touched their 5D Mark III since buying the Canon EOS R.

“since I bought my Canon R, I never touched my Canon 5dmk3 any more”
