EOS R10

Calls the R10 a great beginner camera; the kit lens is okay for a start.

“The R10 is a great beginner camera.”

Loves the R10's SOOC colours and only posts its JPEGs from trips.

“I love the colors I get out of my r10 with all my heart.”

Loves their R10 as a small, light all-rounder with nice JPEGs, except the small buffer.

“I own the R10 and love it (except the small buffer).”

Shoots sports with the R7 and sold R10, and found the R10's autofocus significantly better.

“I will say though that my R10 had significantly better autofocus imo.”

Uses the R10 with the RF 100-400 for birds; AF frustrates sometimes but they've found settings that work.

“The autofocus definitely pisses me off sometimes but through trial and error I’ve definitely figured some tricks out.”

Runs an R10 as a 4K webcam through a Cam Link with a dummy battery, sometimes for days; it gets warm but never extremely hot or shows an overheat warning.

“It definitely does get warm from the sensor always being open and shooting in 4k”

New R10 owner finds its autofocus better than the R5 and R6 they've used.

“I just got the R10 as well and can say the autofocus is definitely better than the R5 and R6.”

Professional R6 shooter loves the R10 as a lightweight alternative with the same joystick and dual-dial controls.

“I LOVE my R10 and take it around as a lightweight alternative.”

Upgraded from a T3i to the R10 and is amazed at how small it is.

“I went from a T3i to the R10 and am amazed at the size.”

Loves the R10 for travelling light with the kit lens or a Sigma 17-40.

“I have the R10 and love it.”

R10 owner says the autofocus is amazing and they could never go back; finds it has more features and quality-of-life touches than the RP and has used it extensively for portraits and landscapes too.

“after getting used to the autofocus, I can never go back to something without it, it's amazing.”

Started on the R10 with the 18-45 kit lens before moving to an R6 Mark II; says the R10 was fantastic, did everything they asked, and is a great tool for learning photography.

“It’s a fantastic camera and did great at everything I asked of it.”

Owns both the RP and R10 and uses the R10 more; praises its flexible focus system and video and says photo quality matches the RP, but battery life is awful so carry several batteries.

“The R10 has more flexibility in the focus system is amazing and video performance is fantastic too.”

Bought the R10 with the 18-150 kit lens as a beginner; photos and video quality are great and they enjoy it, though they feel a bit limited by the RF-S lens lineup.

“The photos and videos have great quality and I have been enjoying using it.”

Owns an R6 II, R10 and R50 and reaches for the R10 whenever they are not using the R6 II.

“I have a r6 ii, r10, and r50. If not using the r6ii, the r10 is my choice.”

Uses the R10 as the small, light alternative to their R6 Mark II and calls it a heavy hitter for its price, size and weight.

“For the price, size, and weight it is a heavy hitter.”

Bought the R10 cheaply as a carry-around second camera to their R6 II, but the R6 II is so much better that the R10 is now only a webcam.

“the r10 has been relegated to permanent webcam status.”

Owns an R10 and R6 II and plans to sell the R10 for video work: the crop, weaker video quality, lack of C-Log and worse ergonomics bother them.

“I’m looking to sell my R10 because I do more video work and the crop and the video quality being starkly different between the two is eating at me.”

Carries the R10 daily with the RF 50 1.8 and RF 100-400 and loves it; likes that its plastic look makes it less attractive to thieves than their R6.

“My EDC is the r10 and I love it.”

Bought an R10 with the 18-150 as a lighter travel alternative to their R6 Mark II with 24-240; it weighs about half and is much smaller, even more so with the 28mm pancake.

“I picked up the R10 with the 18-150 which is very similar given the 1.6 crop factor. it weighs in at 744g and is significant smaller.”

Likes the R10 for its form factor and button ergonomics, though it was annoying to buy a separate set of batteries.

“it’s so compact and I love the ergonomics of the buttons”

Upgraded from the R10 to an R6 II and feels the R10's size and weight savings aren't enough to justify it as an everyday camera; they'd just carry the R6 II.

“the difference in weight and size isn't justified to buy an R10 as an everyday camera.”

Moved from the R50 to the R10 for more modes, buttons, a faster buffer and better ergonomics, but dislikes the menu button placement and rebound the flash button to menu.

“There is something I don't like about the R10 though and that's where the menu button is”

Shoots birds in flight and finds the R10 great for it, arguing its AF is even better than their original R6.

“I'd argue the r10 is actually better with AF, though.”

Replaced an old PowerShot G10 with the R10 and uses it with the 18-150 and 100-400 for wildlife, birding and travel, loving how light the kit is.

“I love the weight of this combinations. They are, especially the 18-150, so light, you take them everywhere.”

Beginner with the R10 and 18-150 kit is more than happy; their own skill limits them more than the camera, though indoor dim light is weak with the kit lens.

“I'm more than happy with the camera, I didn't feel the kit lens limited me in range”

Calls the R10 a huge ergonomic upgrade over the R50 and R100 and a great beginner or travel camera, only looking bad next to their R6 Mark II.

“R10 is a great camera for beginners or travel, it is only "bad" if i compare it to my R6 mk ii”

Says the R10 has everything they need and prefers its physical buttons and dials to the more screen-based R50.

“R10 is a good camera it has all the stuff I need. I like physical buttons and dials much better for adjusting while shooting.”

Former R10 owner calls it a great camera but thinks the kit lens is quite bad.

“I had an R10. Great camera! That kit lens is really quite bad though.”

Beginner recently bought the R10 with the 18-150 and is enjoying it, finding it much more user friendly than their old SLR.

“I recently bought the Canon R10 with the RF-S 18–150mm kit lens and really enjoying it as a beginner.”

Beginner R10 owner is very happy, noting professionals may want dual card slots and IBIS, which it lacks.

“I got this camera with the same kit lens. As an absolute beginner, I'm very happy.”

Loves their R10 as a first camera; size is perfect and crop reach helps for wildlife, though it lacks IBIS and weather sealing.

“The r10 is a fantastic first camera, I love mine and im so happy I have one.”

Rates the R10 6/10: capable but too small and awkward compared with their 90D and R6 II, though still recommends it over the R100 or R50 as a first camera.

“R10 - Just too small. It’s capable, but I don’t feel it to be as capable as the 90D either. 6/10.”

Has used the R10 with 18-150 kit for nearly two years with no regrets, calling it the best-value travel camera as long as expectations are realistic.

“I am having r10 18 150 kit for close to 2 years now.. No regrets...”

Keeps the RF 28mm pancake on their R10 and calls it a super capable setup in a small package.

“The RF28 lives on my R10. A super capable setup in such a small package.”

After nearly a year with the R10 they find it a good camera for photography, but too bulky for everyday use with three young kids.

“It’s a good camera and it does great photography in the right settings, it’s just not a good everyday use while I have three little kids”

Wildlife shooter with an R10 and 100-400 prefers the R10 and thinks it gets almost the same images as an R5.

“If you do wildlife mainly, don’t waste money on the R5. The R10 will almost get you the same images.”

Bought a new R10 as a gift and was struck by how cheap and plasticky it felt in hand, though they don't expect it to fall apart.

“as I was handling it I was struck by how cheaply made it felt.”

Has used the R10 at Formula 1 races and got great pictures; likes how light it is with a heavier 70-200 f/4.

“It’s a great starter camera!”

First-camera R10 owner loves it, doesn't find the build cheap, and says the light plastic body is a big plus for travel and family use.

“I have an R10 as my 1st camera in life and love it.”

Has used the R10 for over a year without babying it and vouches for its durability, adding a cage for edge protection.

“After using the R10 for over a year, I can attest to its durability.”

Coming from a Rebel T6, found the R10 felt more premium, and even next to their 5D Mark III it still feels very high quality.

“i thought it felt way less plastic and more premium”

R10 owner says it feels plasticky with crammed buttons, but is a great entry-level camera for practice with the kit lenses.

“it *does* feel like plastic and the body and buttons feel too crammed in even considering my hands are not too big.”

First-time camera buyer got the R10 and is excited, having disliked the soulless rendering of their iPhone 13.

“I have never owned a camera, and for the first time after years of hesitation, I bought my first camera and I have taken the canon eos r10.”

Moved from a Panasonic Lumix bridge camera to the R10 and finds its image quality and especially autofocus worlds better; also likes how it feels in the hand compared with a Sony.

“The image quality and especially the autofocus of the R10 are worlds better.”

Loves their refurbished R10 in bright light but finds it poor in low light with the kit lens.

“I love the camera in natural bright lighting but I believe it doesn’t perform well in low light without high iso.”

Shoots concerts on the R10 with fast Sigma lenses and finds it fine at ISO 6400.

“I’ve shot concert photos with several Sigma lenses on my R10”

Gets excellent birding results from the R10 with the RF 100-400.

“I have gotten some excellent results with my R10, paired here with the RF 100-400.”

Their Canon R10 randomly broke, prompting an upgrade.

“My Canon R 10 recently randomly broke.”

Moved from the R50 to the R10; it felt large at first but now feels very smooth, especially with a flash.

“I've owned both the R50 and the R10, starting with the R50 then upgrading. The R10 felt pretty large in my hands for the first couple of days, and now it feels very smooth.”

Moved from a 60D to the R10; the smaller size and weight help on long outings, and the full-frame tracking AF and 15fps are huge steps up.

“The smaller size and almost half the wheigt really makes a difference when I'm out for a long time”

Uses their R10 with just the RF 85mm f/2 and is very happy.

“I m using my R10 with only one lens. It is 85 rf f/2.0 and very happy with it”

Moved from a Rebel T6 to the R10 and gets twice the keepers; a great, fun camera, and the deeper grip was the right call.

“Such a great camera and very fun to use. The deeper grip was definitely the way to go, or else I would've got the r50.”

Used the R10 before moving to an R6 Mark II and calls it a great camera.

“This was one of my upgrades before moving to R6 Mark II this year. R10 is a great camera.”

Moved from a 70D to the R10 and finds it a huge improvement.

“I had the 70D and upgraded to r10 and it’s def a huge improvement”

Moved from an R100 to the R10 and loves having many more buttons and features.

“I recently bought a Canon r10 coming from a r100 this feels amazing!”

Their first own camera, the R10 with an adapted EF 70-300, delights them; kid mode even caught their dog mid-run.

“I can't stop delightedly giggling at how fab the photos coming out of this thing are.”

Loves their R10 and uses it with Sigma crop lenses instead of the kit lens.

“I love my r10, and I used that kit lens once.”

Moved from an M6 II to the R10, a major upgrade; the body suits their large hands and vehicle tracking never missed focus.

“The body size is perfect for my larger hands, although I didn’t post them I took some moving shots and the vehicle tracking mode worked great, didn’t miss focus once.”

Keeps the R10 alongside their R5 because it's smaller and gives extra reach.

“The R10 still has a role for me because it’s smaller, gives extra reach”

New to cameras, they stretched their budget to the R10 and are glad; a super nice beginner camera.

“I'm really glad i spent the extra, it's a super nice beginner camera.”

Finds the R10 with the RF 28mm pancake the perfect travel and street kit; it fits a jacket pocket and they barely notice it.

“It Just fits in my jacket pocket and when I have it around my neck I don’t notice it”

Has got some decent astro photos with the R10 but has had to push them hard in Lightroom.

“I have an r10 and have gotten some decent astro pics but havent tried it in a low light pollution area yet.”

Uses an R10 as their travel camera and badly wishes it had weather sealing.

“I use an R10 as my travel camera and desperately wish it had weather sealing”

Finds their R10 more modern than their partner's a6400, with much faster AF, faster burst and USB-C, though RF lenses cost more.

“I have the R10 my gf has the A6400. The R10 is a lot more modern package. Way faster autofocus.”

Values the R10 as an entry-level body with higher-end features like a joystick, two dials, faster burst and bigger buffer.

“its an entry level camera that has most of the features that you would want in a higher-end camera: Joystick, 2-Scroll Wheels, better fps, better buffer.”

Found the R50's ergonomics poor in store, bought a used R10 kit instead and is loving it.

“Ended up finding a used R10 with the kit lens for 620 and I'm loving it!”

Their organisation's R10 takes amazing photos, but video is choppy when panning.

“The camera takes amazing photos, but the video is pretty poor.”

Has done well in motorsport photography with their R10 kit, a powerhouse for beginners, but wishes it had IBIS.

“The r10 is a powerhouse for a beginner, but I definitely wish I would have got an ibis camera.”

Loves their R10 and recommends it, but it does overheat during video recording.

“the R10 also overheats video recording. Not as quickly as 15-20 min, but it definitely does suffer from this.”

Found the R10's slow readout and rolling shutter annoying for birds in electronic shutter.

“I had the R10 which has even worse readout speed, I found the rolling shutter really annoying when culling and editing”

Stuck with the R10 despite early doubts and has used it for graduations, weddings, portraits and hospital theatre work; it is light with cheap lens choices.

“Felt like that when i got my R10 with 18-150. But I stuck with it regardless. Now I've covered graduations, weddings, photoshoots, portraits, and currently working in a university hospital as theatre photographer.”

Owns an R8, R10 and GR IIIx but almost always carries the R10 with a 28mm pancake as a super lightweight walk-around setup.

“So I almost exclusively run around with the canon r10, which is a bit smaller than the r8 and has an APS c sensor, and have the 28mm attached.”

R10 owner who likes its excellent autofocus and ergonomics, but misses in-body stabilisation for twilight shooting. Finds good-value RF lenses scarce and is tired of adapting bulky EF lenses.

“I definitely do appreciate the excellent autofocus on the r10. I've never used another system other than my Lumix gf7, but that's just a little rinkydink thing that doesn't really compare”

Stepped up from a 2000D to the R10 a couple of weeks ago and finds it a great camera, mostly used with the RF-S 18-150.

“I bought the R10 as a step up from the 2000d a couple of weeks ago, it's a great camera, you'd be making a very wise choice!”

Has had the R10 since last summer: a great little travel camera, but it struggles in low light at indoor horse arenas and gives limited background blur. A drop warped its mount.

“It's a great little travel option but I've encountered some low light issues, especially when shooting horse stuff inside (arenas) and also would like some more background blur”
