GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Entry Full-Frame Stills Photography — EOS RP (2019): An affordable gateway into the RF system. The RP makes sense as a stepping stone camera — if you're committed to Canon RF glass, this is the cheapest full-frame body to buy those lenses for. Just manage expectations on video and battery life.
Water Sports, Beach Holidays & Outdoor Adventures On A Budget — PixPro WPZ2 (2021): A practical, affordable waterproof camera for those who want a traditional zoom compact rather than a GoPro-style action camera.
Who should buy what
EOS RP (2019)
- Canon users who want to start investing in RF glass affordably

PixPro WPZ2 (2021)
- Snorkellers and divers who want a traditional zoom compact underwater
- Holiday photographers who want one rugged camera for beach and travel
