Canon EOS R Review (updated 12/19)
I'm not ready to review the camera, but I figured I'd create a thread to start sharing information as I gather it. This first installment is based on some high-ISO night shooting on the Northern California coast. This was a somewhat demanding shoot with some light pollution and moisture in the...

[New gear] EOS R
The EOS R is still a killer camera. I had one for over two years and took great pictures with it and also recorded a lot of videos with it (with my Ninja V for 10bit log). Have fun with it! More on reddit.com

December 8, 2024 - The online review game has gotten lazy. If you didn’t know any better, you would think the Canon EOS R is a complete failure and a disaster, especially when you compare it to a similarly priced Sony A7III.

Canon EOS R Mirrorless Camera: A Hands-On Review
August 4, 2021 - Absolutely, the EOS R has some drawbacks, and it fails to really break out in most areas. But it’s also reasonably priced and gives you access to additional mirrorless capabilities that you just can’t get on a DSLR, without needing a brand new bag of lenses (not to mention its relatively fast autofocus and strong image quality that we’ve come to expect from Canon’s higher-end cameras).

Why isn't the Canon EOS R (full frame mirrorless) selling well? - Quora
Answer (1 of 3): The EOS R was Canon’s first full frame mirrorless camera released in 2018. While the R is still being sold new, it is now 2 generations out of date and it’s market niche has been filled with the R6 mark II, which fixes most if not all of its issues.

r/canon on Reddit: Someone talk me out of buying an EOS R
June 17, 2025 -

So I am looking to invest some money into a quasi-pro level camera (not an R6 or above but also not a Rebel T7) and I’ve been back and forth about 400 times on what camera is best for me. It’s something I’d like to eventually make some money off of but I’m not trying to become a wedding photographer or be on the sidelines of Austin FC trying to shoot action sports shots.

I’m really into the idea of street photography, landscapes, portraits (maybe even pet portraits), and even some real estate photography sounds intriguing to me. I decided I wanted a full frame camera and my budget is around $600-1000 for a camera body. I had settled on the RP but then realized the R is only $100-$300 more depending on the situation, on eBay at least.

Is there some glaring flaw, some terrible thing about it I should be aware of, or is this a solid pick? I will probably pick up a standard zoom lense and then a 50mm 1.8 to go with it.

Update

So I got a hook-up from a local Austinite (in response to the post) who made me an offer for an RP that was too good to turn down. It’s funny because that offer came around the time that y’all had assured me the R was a solid pick. That said, I am ALSO convinced that any thing can be a solid pick depending on the price.

That said, I was still a little torn between the R and the RP, but I have no doubt that the RP with extra batteries, a bonus lens and a 50 mm 1.8 EF lens was 100% the right decision. Thank you all so much for the feedback! I’m so excited about this!

Is the EOS R being phased out? Is it a good invest... - Canon Community
November 17, 2023 - The EOS R was Canon's first mirrorless endeavor. It had some revolutionary features and put Canon into the mirrorless game. Like any camera it did many things very well and some things not so good. EVF isn't the fastest or best, Battery life just ok. Video has a 1.4x crop.

Canon EOS R Review (updated 12/19) | Focal World
October 26, 2018 - A nice practical review. ... Here is a 100% crop comparison at ISO 6400 against the Canon 6D. These were taken on different nights in different lighting (I sold the 6D to help fund this), but all settings and processing are identical and the same lens was used for both. The EOS R has a higher resolution, but I didn't want to scale it down for this comparison because I want the resolution increase to help produce larger images than I could get with the 6D.
