The Canon EOS R10 is designed for hybrid content creators stepping up from a smartphone. It packs professional-grade autofocus, strong image quality and 4K/60p video into a very small body. Unfortunately, Canon’s RF-S lens lineup is currently very small, leaving few native lens choices, and the R10 does not feature in-body image stabilization (IBIS) or Canon Log, both limiting its long term potential.

The Canon EOS R10 is a versatile little powerhouse and one of the best cameras around for beginners. Thanks to its modern autofocus smarts and good handling, it's an affordable way into the EOS R system for new converts and an enjoyable second camera for existing Canon fans. Keen wildlife or action snappers should make the jump up to the EOS R7, though.
