Amazing camera that just feels right in your hands. I found it absolutely wonderful for wildlife photography with its amazing low light capabilities, fantastic noise level performance and high frame rate making the difference for me. Super sharp images. Taking of the telescopic lens and replacing it with a nifty 50mm, gives you a such freedom to shoot portraits and everyday situations. I love this camera 🤎

Optics

sensor size

Full frame

Full frame

One of the most important aspects of a camera is the size of its sensor. A larger sensor will capture more light, which results in improved low-light performance, dynamic range, and general image quality.lens mount

Canon RFCanon EOS R6

Canon RFCanon EOS RP

The type of mount that connects the lens to the camera.focus points

1053

4779

The more focus points the more flexibility in picking which part of the scene to focus on. They also give the image sensor a better probability in identifying the right area of the scene to focus on in more automatic modes.megapixels (main camera)

20.1 MP

26.2 MP

The number of megapixels determines the resolution of the images captured with the main camera. A higher megapixel count means that the camera is capable of capturing more details. However, the megapixel count is not the only important element determining the quality of an image.maximum ISO

102400 ISO

40000 ISO

With a higher light sensitivity (ISO level), the sensor absorbs more light. This can be used to capture moving objects using a fast shutter speed, or to take images in low light without using a flash.maximum expanded ISO

204800 ISO

102400 ISO

Expanded ISO allows you to go beyond the native ISO. It does this by digitally enhancing the image output. The resulting image will have less quality than when staying within the native ISO range, but it can be useful in certain situations.has sensor shift stabilization✔EOS R6✖Canon EOS RPWith sensor shift, the image sensor (rather than the lens) moves to counterbalance any vibration of the camera. This means the image will be stabilised regardless of what lens is being used.continuous shooting (mechanical)

12 fps

5 fps

The number of frames per second that can be captured in continuous drive mode when using the mechanical shutter.has AF tracking✔EOS R6✔Canon EOS RPWith AF tracking, once you choose the subject and press the shutter release part way down, as the subject moves, the autofocus will follow it. No more out of focus shots.+ Show more +

Videography

2160 x 24 fps

The maximum resolution available for videos shot with the main camera. Although it may be possible to choose among other frame rates, those recordings usually have lower resolutions.Has phase-detection autofocus for videos✔EOS R6✔Canon EOS RPA phase-detection autofocus system is faster than a contrast detection autofocus system. Even when recording scenes with a lot of fast movements, the videos are sharp and clear.has continuous autofocus when recording movies✔EOS R6✔Canon EOS RPWhen recording movies they stay focussed and sharp.has a microphone input✔EOS R6✔Canon EOS RPA microphone port allows connecting external high-end or specialized microphones.has a socket for a 3.5 mm audio jack✔EOS R6✔Canon EOS RPWith a standard mini jack socket, you can use the device with most headphones.has a stereo microphone✔EOS R6✔Canon EOS RPA stereo microphone allows to record audio files or movies in stereo without an external microphone.Has timelapse function✔EOS R6✔Canon EOS RPA timelapse shows a long passage of time sped up. A series of photographs taken from the same position over a long period is joined together to create a short video. It is great way to capture things like the setting sun, or clouds moving across the sky.movie bitrate

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Canon EOS RP)

The camera can take a series of shots, shifting the sensor slightly with each one. These can then be combined to create an extremely high-resolution image. It’s particularly useful for things like photographing artwork.shoots raw✔EOS R6✔Canon EOS RPA raw image file contains minimally processed data from the image sensor. Raw files are so named because they are not yet processed and therefore are not ready to be printed or edited with a bitmap graphics editor.supports lossless compressed raw✔EOS R6

It is capable of shooting stills in a lossless compressed raw format. This has all the advantages of shooting raw, while taking up much less storage space. The smaller file size also allows quicker read/write speeds.Wi-Fi version
