GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Entry To Full-Frame Mirrorless & Rf Lens Exploration — EOS R (2018): The RF mount's founding camera — 30MP, Dual Pixel CMOS AF, and the proof-of-concept that launched Canon's mirrorless era.
Commercial, Studio & Landscape Photography — GFX 100 (2019): The world's first 100MP mirrorless with IBIS and phase-detect AF — the GFX 100 was a landmark in medium format, but its size and weight are professional-grade.
