Choosing between the R10 and R7 is a very hard thing to do. Help me out please!
Go with the R10. I have the R7 and think it's a great camera (with a few annoying design decisions that will forever bug me), but it sounds like overkill for what you've described, especially given the price difference there. The R10's "less good specs" are still fantastic specs! More on reddit.com

Is it worth upgrading the Canon R10 to the R7?
There are value adds. Only you can answer if they are worth it. I think the key points are dual card slots for internal back up protection against the risk of card failure, a bigger battery for less risk of the battery dying while you’re out shooting, and IBIS. Better environmental sealing can be meaningful as well, but probably not as much of you aren’t using L lenses because non-L glass isn’t sealed. Kind of leaves a big weak point where the lens attaches. Of those, IBIS is probably a bit overrated if you’re shooting wildlife with long telephotos. The lenses (mostly) have exceptional stabilization and IBIS might add a half stop to what’s already there. IBIS is best for unstabilized primes and better at shorter focal lengths. I think you’d like it better if the money won’t mean much too you. But I’m not sure many, “Wow! I couldn’t get this photo with the R10!”, moments there will be. More on reddit.com

Is the r7 worth the extra cost over r10 for a hobbyist
Here is a chart for some of the difference between the 2. Only you know if they are worth it to YOU. Some people want the "extra dial" and can't live without it, some people want the extra megapixels to crop more, some people can't live without weather sealing, some people want IBIS. If you don't have these features will you miss them by not having them, or do you just want to try them out. Analysis paralysis is a thing sometime you just have to go with your gut. Will you regret your decision (mentally) not just buying the more expensive body? https://www.kenrockwell.com/canon/eos-r/compared/r7-r10-r50-r100-compared.htm More on reddit.com

R10 or R7 beginner
The R10 is a very capable camera and combined with the RF 100-400 would work great for wildlife photography. Going with the R7 would be an upgrade to treat yourself, not a necessity. I own the R7 and use it for hobbyist wildlife photography with the RF 100-400 (planning to upgrade to a 100-500L or 200-2800 eventually but I'm currently a broke college student). Here's my perspective on what the R7 offers over the R10: Sensor resolution (33 vs 24 MP) nice to have when cropping heavily, but not that important unless you're printing large photos. Won't matter at all for posting to social media. In-body image stabilization is extremely useful when shooting still subjects in low-light conditions handheld with a lens that doesn't have image stabilization. If any of those conditions aren't satisfied: you need to freeze motion, have a tripod, or are using a lens with image stabilization it's still slightly useful but far from critical. The same applies to shooting handheld video with a non-stabilized lens. Weather sealing. I'm not sure how to rate this one. Weather-sealed is far from waterproof, and non-sealed cameras can generally survive a little bit of rain unless you get unlucky. It's definitely nice to have, and necessary for some, but personally I'm overprotective and put my camera away when it's raining so I can't say I've gotten that much use out of it. People use non-sealed cameras for 10+ years with no issues. Dual card slots (vs 1) ranges from useful to critical for professionals, but not really needed for a hobbyist. Battery life (rated 660 vs 450 shots) I love the R7's effectively all-day battery but just carrying spares is barely an inconvenience. Ergonomics I have giant hands and much preferred the R7's larger grip when I tried both. This was quite possibly the biggest deciding factor for me apart from IBIS. Larger viewfinder is nice but not necessary. Video features the R7 can shoot in log format and has better 4k video options, but personally I don't shoot video enough for it to matter. And what the R10 has over the R7: Size and weight (615 vs 430 grams) the R7 is a bit more bulky. I haven't found it to be an issue, but I'm seemingly more inclined than most to lug camera gear around. Built-in flash the R7 doesn't have one and I miss it sometimes. An external flash that can be angled to bounce is so much more versatile anyways though, I just picked up a 600EX-RT for for $80 used. In summary I don't think the R10 would fall short of your needs, and almost everything the R7 offers is in the category of "nice but not necessary". If the price difference factors into what lenses you can afford then get the R10, glass is more important than the camera body. More on reddit.com

r/canon on Reddit: Choosing between the R10 and R7 is a very hard thing to do. Help me out please!
April 23, 2023 -

Since the release of both camera's I've been looking to get rid of my backup body (the RP) and add a crop sensor to the collection. Specifically for wildlife, to get more use out of my Tamron 150-600 telephoto lens. I recently picked up wildlife photography and enjoying it a lot, however not sure if it's something I'm fully committed on yet.

My main reason to go for either of these 2 bodies is their insane AI autofocus and tracking combined with the newest technology, DIGIC X and sensor. But here is where I'm stuck.

The R10 is basically the R7 but in a cheaper body with a bit less options but for me I wonder if the R7 is worth the extra price bump. This is why:

  • I never had IBIS and I don't think I really need it

  • I never use any camera in pouring rain or wet conditions

  • I never do video on my camera

  • I don't need 2 SD card slots (in 8 years I've had no issues using one slot)

  • battery life of both camera's is already better than what I own now and I always make it though the day with this.

  • I prefer the wheel and button layout of the R10 because it's more familiar.

So basically my only reason to go for the R7 would be to have a more future proof body, which is more robust, has a bigger battery and more megapixels. But I really wonder if the megapixels is something to go for or not. The price difference here is €1.700 (R7) vs €900 (R10). You can get quite a cool EF or RF lens for that difference.

So What do you think I should do? Get a more future proof body for almost double the money or try out the R10 which ticks most of the boxes for me and settle with less good specs.

May 5, 2025 - It runs on a 24.2MP APS-C sensor, which is plenty for most creators, and uses the same speedy DIGIC X processor found in the R7. That gives you 15 fps with the mechanical shutter and up to 23 fps electronically, which is nuts at this level. Autofocus? Still fantastic. You get Canon’s top-tier Dual Pixel CMOS AF II, which means eye-detection, face tracking, and animal tracking that feels like magic. For vloggers and content creators who live life in front of and behind the camera, the R10 delivers the goods.

September 25, 2024 - The R7 offers dual card slots. The R7 and other Full Frame bodies lack a built in flash. If flash is needed an external speedlite/ flash unit is required for flash photography. The R10 doesn't offer IBIS instead it relies on lenses with IS for stabilization and it only has 1 card slot.

Hi, I have used a R10 for a year now for wildlife photography, but now I have an interest in buying a R7 and selling the R10 as I heard it has better overall build and features, IBIS, and (some say) better autofocus? So, do you think it's worth?

thank you :)

The R10 and R7 have the same autofocus. I actually think the R10's performs a bit better given the readout of the sensor is faster, though how much it matters is in the "it doesn't really matter" range. Correction on this, the R10's readout is slower than the R7, I'm not sure why I thought it was faster. Now, I did move on from an R10 to an R7, but it wasn't as big of a jump as I was expecting. I did it primarily for the sealing which was almost entirely a peace of mind situation. What I ended up liking about it was the larger size of the body, the larger capacity of the battery, and the controls on the R7. A lot of the rest of the feature list ended up not making a huge difference. The controls on the R7 are unique, and a lot of people dislike them, but I keep finding people who talk shit about them until they use an R7 and then they tend to like the Holy Wheel. Really though, it's not a huge upgrade and in terms of value added it's not a ton. If you really want it for one reason or another and don't give a shit about value, then do what you want. You really won't notice a huge difference in your photos...probably.

r/canon on Reddit: Is the r7 worth the extra cost over r10 for a hobbyist
March 22, 2025 -

Hello everyone, I currently use a Canon Rebel T7 and am looking to upgrade to a mirrorless system for bird photography, which is a serious hobby of mine. I've narrowed my options to the Canon EOS R7 and the EOS R10, both with the RF 18-150mm lens.

Currently, there's approximately a 300-400 euro price difference between the two. I can afford the additional cost of the R7, but if I choose the R10, I could purchase the R10 with the lens and the RF 100-400mm. With the R7, I would have to wait to get the amazing 100-400.

I understand the R7 has IBIS, a higher resolution sensor and sealing. Will these features make a significant difference for bird photography as a hobbyist? Does anyone here have experience with these cameras for bird photography? I do a lot of landscape and nature photography as well.

I would greatly appreciate your help!

Hi all, I’ve done some searching but only found older threads. Not sure how much camera tech changes. Question I have 2 dogs and a son and find myself always outdoors either hiking /lake or beach so I have been looking into a wildlife setup. Is the R10 with the 100-400 lenses perfectly fine? Or is the R7 that much better. For reference I have never owned a camera just my iPhone 11

For reference I have never owned a camera just my iPhone 11 Prepare to be amazed. As others have stated, the R7 is more wildlife focused and will help you a bit when it comes to lower light, moving subjects and hand-held shooting with a lens such as the 100-400, but that doesn't mean the R10 can't pretty much do the same, with a few less conveniences, they are both great cameras. A few notes on going from being a phone photographer to having a real camera. First off, learn your camera, phone auto modes do everything for you and camera full auto modes do as well, but there are a ton more features that are still left to the user to tweak and it will make a big difference depending on what you are doing. Phones have limited support for choosing a focus point and their lenses are so wide angle that usually everything is in focus no matter what, learn the different focus modes, picking focus points and you'll get some amazingly sharp images. Phones also do a ton of post processing and touch up in order to convince you that you took a good picture, it's impressive, but it's also a bit ridiculous sometimes, your R10/7 won't so you'll definitely want some photo editing software to really get the most out of your pictures and it's tons of fun! A well processed picture from either of those cameras is going to look incredible.
