EOS RP

The EOS RP is Canon's entry point into the RF full-frame system — and for many photographers, an affordable way to experience the RF lens ecosystem without the price of an R5 or R6. At its best shooting stills in good light, it punches well above its price tag.

Great For
👤
Portrait Full-frame sensor with Dual Pixel AF produces beautiful portrait images in good light.
✈️
Travel Compact full-frame that packs easily. Poor battery life means carrying multiple spares on longer trips.
🌆
Street Light and capable. No IBIS means managing shutter speed carefully in low light.
🏔️
Landscape 26MP resolves landscapes well in good light. No weather sealing limits rough outdoor use.
⚠️ Not Ideal For
🎬
Video 4K is cropped and 30p only. For RF video work, the R6 Mark II or R8 are significantly better choices.
🦅
Wildlife 5fps burst and no weather sealing make this a poor choice for wildlife photography.
