EOS RP Mirrorless Full Frame Camera
Product Details
Web ID: 17564876The EOS RP needs better firmware
I brought this camera a week ago and I'm kind of regretting it. The Panasonic G7 which I believe was launched 5 years before the RP comes out ahead of the camera and the RP has electronics and components that is worlds advanced than the G7 yet the camera exactly drastically under performs a camera that is 5 years older than it. For example RP has a max burst rate of 5fps the G7 has 8.1 fps RP has a max rate of 24fps in k4 without dual pixel autofocus and the the G7 does k4 in 30fps The RP when focused on a blue sky kind of washes out the blue and looks a lot whiter the g7 has a much more beautiful blue color. Both cameras have roller shutter effect and banding but it's less noticeable on the G7, unfortunately neither camera have a log profile but using custom settings you get a lot more flexibility with the G7 The G7 basically leaps ahead in many aspects to a newer camera. To which I believe a lot of it is held back at the firmware level. I can't understand why canon won't push the camera at the firmware level as much as possible because after studying the hardware the digic 8 processor has the capabilities to offer everything the camera does not have. The RP could beat the competition in many ways and become a very powerful entry level full frame camera that's affordable. But currently it falls to last place against many weaker cameras that this camera should be able to beat but doesn't. Hoping canon launches a new firmware that enables the camera to reach its full potential .

Great Camera for Small Product Photography and 360 Spins
I purchased this camera for small product stills and 360 spins along with the Canon 24-105 F4-7.1 lens. I've been very happy with this combination - it was easy to get up-to-speed and works very well in a tethered configuration. Our customers compliment us regularly on the quality of our product photos.

The Perfect Hiking Camera.
The perfect hiking camera. Camera is light, handles well. Relatively easy to use. The pictures are beautiful. I’ve owned several cameras, for me I’ve never owned one that does a better job while hiking.

First full frame camera
I’ve had this camera for about a month now, I’m enjoying it a lot my first ever camera was a canon Rebel T7, then I got a EOS R10 was happy with it but didn’t feel it was for me, so I sold the R10 and got a Sony A6400 liked the camera as well but still didn’t feel like it was the right camera, so sold that as well eventually I saw the RP I know it’s older than the R10 but it was full frame camera and that’s what I was honestly looking for and it was still affordable, I take pictures for my church and I’ve used all 3 cameras and I’m liking the RP the most out of all of them

Great Value and Quality
The Canon RP is my first full frame camera and my first canon camera. The first thing I noticed is the beautiful colors. I use the camera to photograph friends, family, wildlife, and landscapes. It’s not the fastest but it makes sense at this price point. The kit lens is good enough to get excellent quality images. I picked the RP over the R6 because it is lighter. As soon as my budget permits, I will be upgrading to the r8 because it’s light too.
