See how the Canon EOS RP performs in the hands of enthusiasts and discover how they use the benefits of full-frame mirrorless plus EF and EF-S lenses to capture images packed with detail and depth.

A lightweight body with a faster, smarter lens mount

The Canon EOS RP is a practical, creative full-frame mirrorless camera with enormous creative potential thanks to the next generation RF lenses. The wide diameter, high communication speed and short back focus of the RF mount is the perfect starting point for your future full-frame system.

A new standard in full-frame image quality

The Canon EOS RP 26.2 Megapixel CMOS sensor works incredibly in low light thanks to a DIGIC 8 processor and in-camera DLO that give superb results direct from camera.

Shoot in a new way

The Canon EOS RP offers a new way of embracing the benefits of full-frame. Shoot with the dedicated range of full-frame RF lenses as well as the wide range of EF and EF-S lenses via adapter without compromising optical performance.

EOS handling with no compromise

A comfortable EOS style grip alongside a high resolution Vari-Angle touch screen and OLED electronic viewfinder inspires next generation handling in a lightweight 485g body1.

Focus anywhere in an instant

Dual Pixel CMOS AF offers an extended AF area as well as the exceptionally fast AF speed2 at just 0.05 seconds over 4779 selectable AF positions, plus low light AF down to -5 EV3. Eye AF keeps your portraits sharp while focus bracketing offers maximum depth-of-field right across an image.

Shoot flexibly and connect seamlessly

From using Silent Mode to controlling the camera remotely via Wi-Fi. Capture all the action with up to 5fps with the option to process your images in-camera and share via the Canon Camera Connect app.

Canon aims to achieve net-zero CO2 emissions from its business activities by 2050

We will achieve this by delivering an average improvement of 3% per year in the lifecycle CO2 emissions improvement index per product. Which if sustained would mean roughly a 50% reduction from 2008 levels by the year 2030. We recognise this to be in line with the level of reduction called for by the Paris Agreement.

We will continue to undertake target reviews from a long-term perspective as a way of checking our contribution to the realisation of a low-carbon society.
