Introduction

The brand new Canon EOS R8 is an entry-level full-frame mirrorless digicam which at the moment sits above the EOS RP and under the EOS R6 Mark II within the now intensive Canon vary.

It primarily combines the 24.2 megapixel CMOS sensor and DIGIC X processor discovered within the EOS R6 Mark II with the smaller, lighter physique and less complicated person interface of the EOS RP.

The Canon R8 provides the identical class-leading burst capturing fee of 40fps with the digital shutter because the R6 II, making it Canon’s joint-fastest full-frame mirrorless digicam, surpassing even the 30fps mode provided by the range-topping EOS R3.

Observe that this digicam doesn’t have a mechanical shutter, in contrast to the EOS R6 II step-up mannequin.

It additionally provides Canon’s famend Twin Pixel CMOS AF II focusing system full with AI monitoring which moreover recognises automobiles, motorbikes, plane and trains along with folks, cats, canine, horses and birds.

Different key options embody 4K 60p limitless video recording oversampled from 6K sensor information with no crop, 180fps excessive body fee video recording, an expanded ISO vary of 50-204,000, OVF simulation mode, wi-fi and Bluetooth connectivity, and webcam and reside streaming help.

The Canon EOS R8 physique solely is priced at £1,699 / €1,799 / $1,499 within the UK, Europe and US respectively. It’s designed and made in Japan.

Ease of Use

Canon EOS R8

Measuring 132.5×86.1×70.0mm, the brand new EOS R8 is a fraction bigger than the EOS RP, however it one way or the other manages to weigh 26g much less at simply 414g (461g with card and battery fitted).

This does imply that even an ordinary zoom lens just like the RF 24-70mm F/2.8L IS USM feels somewhat entrance heavy on the EOS RP, particularly when it is zoomed to 70mm because the lens barrel extends additional.

Canon have sought to deal with this by providing the Extension Grip EG-E1 accent, a properly designed handgrip extension for the EOS R8 (and RP) which makes it extra appropriate for each folks with bigger arms and for utilizing the digicam with bigger, heavier lenses.

Sadly, nevertheless, there isn’t a battery grip out there for the R8, in contrast to the R6 Mark II which has the the non-compulsory BG-R10 accent to enhance the dealing with and prolong the already glorious battery life.

The R8 is far lighter and smaller than the EOS R6 Mark II, which weighs 588g body-only or 670g with each a battery and reminiscence card fitted and measures 138.4×98.4×88.4 mm.

Regardless of the EOS R8’s light-weight nature, although, the chassis is definitely fabricated from magnesium alloy, and it provides the identical degree of weatherproofing because the EOS RP.

There is a surprisingly chunky handgrip on the entrance which is generously sized given the general dimensions of the digicam, with the small however tactile shutter button set into the sloping entrance of the grip.

On the entrance of the digicam, there is a porthole for the AF help gentle, a lozenge formed button for releasing the lens, and the 54mm diameter RF mount.

Not like a number of the costlier EOS R-series fashions, the sensor will not be protected by a bodily cowl when the digicam is turned off, as a substitute being left relatively extra open to the weather.

On the coronary heart of the EOS R8 is similar 24.2 megapixel CMOS sensor discovered within the R6 II. We predict that 24 megapixels is the candy spot for this class of digicam, particularly given the blistering burst capturing speeds that the R8 provides.

The ISO vary runs from 100-102,400, which may be additional expanded as much as ISO 204,800 and all the way down to ISO 50.

The Canon R8 provides an unimaginable burst capturing fee of 40fps with the digital shutter, maintained for 120 JPEG or 56 RAW photos.

It will possibly additionally shoot at 6fps with the digital first curtain shutter maintained for 1000+ JPEG or RAW photos

Each modes help full auto publicity (AE) and auto focus (AF) monitoring relatively than being locked to the primary body.

There is a tiny quantity of viewfinder and LCD blackout between every body when capturing at 40fps, however it’s barely discernible to the bare eye.

Extremely the R8 can document 1,000 or extra compressed uncooked photos when capturing at 6fps earlier than its buffer turns into full. The buffer is far smaller when utilizing the 40fps mode at 120 JPEGs, 100 Compressed Raws, or 56 Uncompressed RAWs.

Canon EOS R8

There’s additionally a really helpful Uncooked burst mode through which the digicam can shoot at 30fps for 158 frames with 0.5 seconds of pre-capture built-in, which ought to assist much more with capturing that decisive sporting or wildlife second.

Canon have determined to not implement an in-camera picture stabilisation system on the brand new EOS R8 mannequin, which is without doubt one of the largest variations between the R8 and the R6 Mark II, which does have IBIS.

We will forgive Canon considerably for this on the EOS R8, provided that it is considerably smaller in each dimension and value than the step-up mannequin, however on the time of writing you will have to stump up in extra of £$2K to get a Canon full-frame digicam with IBIS.

Additionally comprehensible on a digicam just like the EOS R8 is Canon’s resolution to solely implement one card slot, and for the usual to be SD UHS-II, relatively than something extra technologically superior like XQD playing cards.

Extra annoying is the truth that the cardboard slot is shared with the battery compartment within the base of the digicam, which signifies that you must take the digicam off a tripod or gimbal with a purpose to entry each the cardboard and the battery.

This points is additional exacerbated on the Canon R8 as a result of it makes use of the identical LP-E17 battery because the EOS RP and M50 mirrorless cameras, relatively than the bigger LP-E6N battery utilized in most different EOS R-series cameras.

This gives a relatively mediocre CIPA rated lifetime of 220 pictures when utilizing the EVF or 370 pictures when solely utilizing the LCD display screen, though you may at the very least recharge the digicam through its USB 2.0 port in addition to utilizing the equipped charger.

The EOS R8’s EVF has a respectably excessive decision of two.36 million dots, 100% scene protection and a magnification of 0.70x, maybe unsurprisingly precisely the identical because the EOS RP.

Canon EOS R8

One vital distinction between the newer and older fashions is the refresh fee of the viewfinder, which is 120fps on the R8 versus 60fps on the RP.

One key distinction is that the brand new mannequin now incorporates a particular OVF simulation mode inherited from the R6 II, which makes use of HDR expertise to simulate a extra “real-world” view of the scene.

The R8’s LCD display screen is a 3-inch unit with 1.62 million dots, which is a noticeable enchancment on the RP’s relatively derisory 1.04 million dot decision, and it is also equally vari-angle in nature which makes it a pleasure to make use of for each stills and video.

It can be usefully folded flat in opposition to the again of the digicam to guard it when in transit in a digicam bag.

A proximity sensor is positioned instantly beneath the viewfinder, which mechanically switches between the EVF and LCD display screen. When the LCD display screen is swung outwards, the EVF is cleverly turned off mechanically.

A tilting LCD display screen all the time helps to encourage capturing from artistic angles and it additionally helps make the EOS R8 ideally suited to movie-shooting.

As talked about above, the LCD display screen is touch-sensitive, permitting you to manage every part from setting the AF level and firing the shutter, navigating the menu techniques and looking your photos throughout playback. It is a very exact, responsive system that is a veritable pleasure to make use of.

Turning to the highest of the digicam, the EOS R8 is once more nearly fully equivalent to the EOS RP, with a few notable variations which can be borrowed instantly from the EOS R6 II.

Canon EOS R8

The R8 has a correct capturing mode dial relatively than an LCD standing panel as on some R-series fashions, which quickens the operation of the digicam particularly in the event you change between the completely different capturing modes so much.

The Canon R8 provides two comparatively new capturing modes – a number of publicity mode (JPEGs solely) and in-camera focus bracketing which might be an enormous pull for a lot of stills photographers.

The M-fn button gives fast entry to a number of the digicam’s key controls, together with ISO, steady capturing, AF, white steadiness and publicity compensation.

The entrance and rear command dials and small, pink one-touch film document button have additionally been carried over from the RP to the R8, as has Canon’s newest multi-function hotshoe for Speedlites, microphones and different equipment.

The 2 essential adjustments on prime of the R8 are the amalgamation of the Off/On management with the Lock change over on the fitting, which leaves room for the welcome addition of a Digital camera/Film change over on the left, making it even simpler to change the digicam between these two key capturing modes.

As its identify suggests, the Lock change locks the 2 management dials on prime of the digicam and the rear management wheel so as to’t by accident change the digicam’s key settings.

The Canon EOS R8 can document 4K video as much as 60p in 10-bit, achieved by means of oversampling from 6K. Observe that it does not provide 6K/60p ProRes Uncooked recording utilizing the complete width of the sensor, as on the R6 II, which is without doubt one of the key video variations between the 2 fashions.

1080p slow-motion recording is obtainable with AF help, as much as 180fps. There’s an official 2-hour time restrict on recordin,g in contrast with 6-hours on the R6 II, and Canon declare that rolling shutter has been considerably diminished.

Canon EOS R8

The EOS R8 additionally provides a number of key video options like focus respiratory correction, a false color publicity help, a 3/5 second pre-recording perform, Canon Log 3 profile, and a fast management display screen only for video. Vertical video seize can also be supported, which is right for reels and tales.

There is not any AF joystick and/or an AEL button on rear of the Canon R8, which was one in every of our essential criticisms of the EOS RP.

This makes it a lot tougher to set the AF level than on rival cameras, as you must use the 4-way navigation pad or contact and drag the AF level on the rear LCD as a substitute, each of that are a lot much less satisfying alternate options to a very good joystick.

That is positively one thing that energy customers will miss on the EOS R8 and one other of the vital variations between this mannequin and the EOS R6 II.

You may at the very least use nearly the entire display screen when contact and dragging the AF level, or you may apportion a bit of the display screen, for instance the underside proper, to assist you to change the AF level. That is notably helpful in the event you discover that your nostril or face is by accident transferring the AF level whenever you don’t need it to while utilizing the viewfinder.

The R8 is the newest Canon digicam to function the following technology Twin Pixel CMOS AF II focusing system for each stills and video. Billed because the world’s quickest AF, the digicam is able to focusing in as little as 0.05 seconds.

It provides 4,897 manually selectable and 1,053 mechanically selectable AF factors with 100% body protection.

Impressively the EOS R8 may also focus in gentle ranges as little as -6.5EV (when used with an F1.2 lens), which is an actual boon to low-light capturing.

Canon EOS R8

Because of its Digic X processor, the EOS R8 advantages from precisely the identical deep-learning primarily based computerized face, eye and animal AF monitoring modes because the R6 Mark II.

The AI monitoring recognises horses, plane and trains in addition to people, canine, cats and birds, making it probably the most versatile techniques at the moment available on the market.

Cleverly, if the digicam is ready to Face-only AF and the tracked topic exits the body, it will not mechanically then deal with the background, as a substitute re-focusing on the face when it reenters the scene.

It additionally contains a particular auto-select mode for topics, plus the identical Versatile AF mode from the EOS R3, and eye monitoring capabilities in all AF modes.

Observe that neither the R8 and the R10 APS-C mannequin that was introduced alongside it even have a mechanical shutter. This enables the digicam physique to be smaller, however could result in much less easy bokeh when capturing at shutter speeds sooner than 1/five hundredth second.

On the rear shoulder of the R8 are three traditional Canon controls – the AF-On button for individuals who favor back-button focusing, the Auto-exposure Lock button (denoted by a star) and the AF space choice button which makes it simpler to change the autofocus level when holding the digicam to your eye.

Beneath the AF-On button are the Information Button and the shared Fast/Set button, which previously opens the Fast Management display screen and gives immediate entry to 10 key digicam controls.

Canon EOS R8

Finishing the rear of the EOS R8 are the self-explanatory Playback and Delete buttons positioned beneath the D-pad.

On the left hand-side of the digicam are three rubber flaps housing 5 completely different connections. The Canon EOS R8 has a microphone port, headphone jack, distant management port, USB 3.2 Kind-C port and a mini HDMI connection.

These are all of the issues that any fanatic photographer or videographer would want from a connectivity viewpoint, apart from a full-size HDMI port.

With built-in up to date Bluetooth 4.2 and Wi-Fi 2.4GHz help, the EOS R8 may be simply related to a smartphone and networks permitting high-speed file sharing and FTP/FTPS switch.

The R8 can be remotely managed utilizing Canon’s Digital camera Join and EOS Utility apps and tethered to a PC or Mac through Wi-Fi or high-speed USB 3.2.

It additionally provides the power to simply function each as a webcam or for reside streaming through UVC/UAC, just by connecting the digicam to a pc.

Picture High quality

The entire pattern photos on this evaluate had been taken utilizing the 24.2 megapixel Tremendous JPEG setting, which supplies a median picture dimension of round 8Mb.

The Canon EOS R8 produced nonetheless photos of excellent high quality throughout the evaluate interval.

This digicam produces noise-free JPEG photos from ISO 50 all the way in which as much as ISO 12800, with noise first showing at ISO 25600. The sooner settings of 51200 and 102400 show various noise, however they’re nonetheless superb to make use of for making smaller prints and net photos. Even the quickest expanded setting of ISO 204800 can be utilized at a push.

The EOS R8 proved to be very succesful in low-light, with the utmost shutter pace of 30 seconds and the Bulb mode permitting you to seize sufficient gentle in all conditions.

The assorted completely different Image Types and Inventive Results are an actual profit, all of which may be previewed earlier than you are taking the shot, as are the HDR settings, focus stacking and a number of publicity modes.

Help for the newest HEIF 10-bit file format continues to be somewhat skinny on the bottom, however ought to provide a level of future-proofing if it is extra broadly adopted.

Conclusion

The brand new Canon EOS R8 is a profitable fusion of the smaller, lighter physique and simplified management structure of the entry-level EOS RP with the sensor, processor and auto-focus system of the prosumer EOS R6 II.

It consequently provides a whole lot of the cutting-edge options of the latter, most notably the wonderful auto-focusing system, lightning-quick 40fps burst capturing and 4K/60p video recording with no crop, all at a considerably lower cost level that alone ought to assist to make the EOS R8 a highly regarded digicam.

Certain, there are a couple of downsides to following the design of the EOS RP nearly to the letter, with the shortage of IBIS, no AF joystick on the rear, a single shared reminiscence card/battery compartment and really quick battery life being notably annoying for extra skilled energy customers.

On the upside, the inclusion of the brand new Digital camera/Film change, higher-resolution LCD display screen, 120fps EVF, direct webcam help and the newest multi-function hotshoe are all worthwhile dealing with upgrades when evaluating the R8 with the now a lot older RP.

For a lot of customers the a lot smaller and lighter physique of the EOS R8 might be a definite benefit when evaluating it to the R6 II, as will the aggressively smaller £1,699 / €1,799 / $1,499 price-tag.

When it comes to similarly-priced rivals, Sony have the previous-generation however nonetheless very succesful A7 III and Nikon provide the marginally cheaper Z5, each of which function built-in IBIS, however we would nonetheless choose the R8 forward of them thanks in no giant half to its AF system and burst capturing.

Total, the brand new Canon R8 efficiently fills the full-frame hole between the now growing old RP and R fashions and the newest EOS R6 II, while being an attractively specced and priced various to Canon’s higher-end APS-C fashions.

Review Roundup

Reviews of the Canon EOS R8 from around the web.

The Canon EOS R8 kind of does it all. Whatever your photographic medium, this camera can shoot it. The R8 does not scrimp on the technology, using the same sensor and processor as the R6 Mark II, with the latest subject recognition and tracking, 24.2MP images, ISO all the way up to 102400, and that blistering 40 frames per second shooting speed. So what’s the catch? Well, ergonomic compromises have been made, with no joystick or thumb dial on the back of the camera, no IBIS, smaller LP-E17 batteries that won’t shoot as long, and only one awkwardly placed SD card slot.
