Canon RF Mount. The full-frame Canon EOS RP supports Canon’s line of RF-mount lenses. The RF mount boasts a wide 54mm diameter and a short 20mm flange-back distance, which gives manufacturers the power to design lenses that are smaller and faster than equivalent SLR lenses. The RF mount’s 12-pin electronic contact system also makes for more advanced autofocus and image stabilization. You can use the one of Canon’s EF-EOS R Mount Adapter / Control Ring Mount Adapter to mount EF and EF-S lenses to RF-mount cameras.

26.2MP Sensor and DIGIC 8 Processor. The EOS RP’s 26.2MP sensor offers an unmatched balance between resolution and sensitivity, delivering fast, high-resolution output and stellar low-light performance. The DIGIC 8 processor allows for a native ISO range of 100-40,000, which you can expand to ISO 50-102,400. You also get 5 fps continuous shooting for capturing fast-moving subjects.

Dual-Pixel CMOS Autofocus. This camera’s smooth, fast Dual-Pixel autofocus system acquires focus much like camcorder does. Each of its pixels include two separate photodiodes that, when combined, give you a network of 4,779 phase-detection elements across most of the sensor. It can focus quickly and accurately on moving subjects when you’re shooting stills, while its Movie Servo AF mode lets you dictate tracking sensitivity, autofocus speed, and face-tracking priority. You also get touchscreen focusing, and subject recognition and tracking. The focusing system’s EV -5 sensitivity means that it functions well even in low light.

UHD 4K Capture. The EOS RP can record UHD 4K at 30 fps, and 1080HD and 720HD at up to 60 fps. In-camera recording gives you 4K video with 4:2:0 sampling and 8-bit color depth, while using an external recorder can give you a 4:2:2 8-bit clean output in ITU-R CT.2020. You can record audio via the integrated stereo mic or by connecting an optional external mic to the standard 3.5mm jack.

Simple Control. The rear 3.15-inch 2.1m-dot touchscreen LCD gives you intuitive control, and an easy way to pull focus in video mode and make quick adjustments in the camera’s menu system, among other things.

Additional Features. The EOS RP boasts Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity for wireless sharing, control, geotagging, and image transfer via the Canon Camera Connect app. It runs on an LP-E17 battery that’s rated for approximately 250 shots per charge, and it is compatible with SDHC / XC memory cards with support for UHS-II via its single SD slot.
