The bad news is that you can only shoot 4K (UHD) up to 30fps and 1080p (FullHD) up to 60fps If you want to shoot at 120fps, you have to go all the way to 720p (HD). 709 color space, and externally at 4:2:2 10-bit with rec. The good news is that the EOS R is equipped with C-log as standard and can record internally on 4:2:0 8-bit with rec. Rounding out the main complaint is a video issue. And we already know that the flagship EOS R5 will have image stabilization when it arrives later in 2020. However, while two of the four early RF mount lenses (RF kit lens 24-105mm f/4L IS USM and RF 35mm f/1.8 IS STM Macro) both have the IS feature, it IS better if the camera has an IBIS so that each lens can take advantage of it.
So for this camera does not have it is something striking negligence.Ĭanon told us that it believes that this lens offers optical stabilization, as it is specially adapted to the unique elements of each lens and focusing mechanisms. Sony has had the IBIS five-axis since 2014, Nikon Z6 and Z7 both have it, Panasonic S1 and S1R have it… Even other formats like the Olympus OM-D E-M1X and Fujifilm GFX100R have it. Let’s get a big one off the road: The EOS R doesn’t feature any in-body (IBIS) image stabilization. Other annoyances, however, cannot be fixed by the firmware.
This issue should be addressed with firmware, but Canon’s latest EOS R firmware update clearly weakens and concentrates only on bug fixes. And autofocus, although the dual pixel CMOS AF is shared, it doesn’t seem quite as smooth as the 1D X Mark II when recording video. Out of the box, for example, eye tracking is only possible in a single AF. On paper, AF must be untouched, but in practice, there are some shortcomings.

Unfortunately, although capable of delivering great image quality, handling and ergonomics are mixed bags and the video capabilities of the EOS R lag behind competition. With the EOS R, you are, in essence, getting image and video quality from the 5D Mark IV around the price point of 6D Mark II at a dose of the philosophy of healthy control of both cameras and the EOS M series. Canon said that the shorter RF lens mount would allow them to design better or smaller lenses than can be done for existing EF mounts. It is built around the same 30 megapixel dual pixel CMOS sensor as the EOS 5D Mark IV in 2016, but is designed for the new series of RF lenses.
