Canon EOS R7

The Canon EOS R7 is excellent for sports and wildlife photography. It has a very quick max burst rate and a fairly large image buffer. Its autofocus system supports human, animal, and vehicle subject detection, and it's quite effective at tracking fast-moving subjects. Image quality is also great, though its noise handling is just decent for low-light situations. On top of that, it has a very good battery life for a mirrorless camera.

The Canon EOS R7 brings the heat to competing APS-C cameras with its fast and accurate autofocus and flexible video tools, making it a fine choice for photographers and videographers alike.

There’s an awful lot to like about the Canon EOS R7 and it feels like the mid-range camera that a lot of Canon fans have been waiting for. It’s fast, has powerful autofocus that keeps up with a range of subjects, produces excellent images, handles well and is priced competitively. At the time of writing, the only drawback is the limited range of native lenses. If Canon can give us some more of these soon, the EOS R7 could deservedly become one of its most popular cameras.

The Canon R7 is an extremely capable and well-priced camera but it's let down by its lack of lens options. If Canon releases some more compelling glass for the RF-S system, it'll be much easier to recommend.

De Canon R7 is een uiterst capabele en goed geprijsde camera, maar wordt teleurgesteld door het gebrek aan lensopties. Als Canon wat overtuigender glas voor het RF-S systeem uitbrengt, zal hij veel gemakkelijker aan te bevelen zijn.

La Canon R7 es una cámara muy capaz y bien de precio, pero es defraudado por su falta de opciones de lentes. Si Canon lanza algunos objetivos más atractivos para el sistema RF-S, será mucho más fácil recomendarla.

Le Canon R7 est un appareil photo extrêmement performant et bon marché, mais il est déçu par le manque d'options d'objectifs. Si Canon sort des objectifs plus convaincants pour le système RF-S, il sera beaucoup plus facile à recommander.

La Canon R7 è una fotocamera estremamente capace e dal prezzo conveniente, ma è delusa dalla mancanza di opzioni per gli obiettivi. Se Canon rilasciasse un vetro più convincente per il sistema RF-S, sarebbe molto più facile consigliarla.

Die Canon R7 ist eine äußerst leistungsfähige und preisgünstige Kamera, aber sie wird durch den Mangel an Objektivoptionen enttäuscht. Wenn Canon mehr überzeugendes Glas für das RF-S System herausbringt, wird es viel einfacher sein, sie zu empfehlen.

The Canon R8 serves as the most affordable entry point into Canon's full-frame ecosystem. It loses out on the IBIS and has simplified controls, but it's also one of the most compact and lightweight full-frame cameras on the market, which makes it very appealing.
