Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The eos r8 completely fixes these issues. I use mine mostly in my home studio and it's currently behind a teleprompter. The combination of the superb image quality, light weight, and affordable price make this hard to pass up.

The r8 is an upgrade minus the battery size and sensor cover door. It brings canon's latest af capabilities and much improved video to the same body size and style as the existing eos rp. The only downside for me is the lack of in body stabilization, ... Read More

Autofocus system is impressively fast and accurate. Sony's autofocus is almost as good as canon's. Nikon's and fuji's are well behind.

Upgrading from 70d to this, is the best thing that ever happened to me. Getting a full frame camera packed with all these features at such a price is a blessing! We take alot of pictures of the kids outdoor sports and this combination is working reall... Read More

Canon eos 5d mark iii with an adapter is available for the r7 and 7d. The r7 comes with a body only version of the ef 100-400 lens. The adapter can also be used with the r8, r5, r7d or 7d, but the adapter costs $99. From canon's ef-lense website.

Cons

The camera overheats very easily…even indoors. The raw files still retain dark corners even after applying lens profile correction in lightroom. There is no point, if you have to crop significant portions of the image, when kit lens is used at 24mm to... Read More

Quality

The advanced mirrorless design contributes to its compact and lightweight form, making it ideal for various shooting situations.

Great pics, simple ui, easy review, lightweight, solid canon product.

Smaller battery, only 1 memory card slot, and no in body stabilization.

Low fps when in electronic first-curtain shutter mode: i almost always shoot in electronic shutter due to how fast the readout ... Read More

Price

This is an incredible bargain, especially from a major corporation.

Overall this is a bargain for entry into the rf system and provides amazing images, fast autofocus, and lightweight.

Considering that i'm on a tight budget, getting a full frame camera packed with all these features at such a price is a blessing !

I watched almost all the reviews online for this camera in this price range and always kept coming back th this.

Competitiveness

The image quality and and autofocus capabilities are as good as the r6m2 and similar to the much more expensive r3 at a much lo... Read More

There is literally no camera that offers the performance and capabilities of the r8 at this price point.

There are some trade-offs vs some thing more expensive like an r6, but they don't bother me at all.

I've also heard that canon's ibs implementation isn't as good as some other companies and it allegedly exhibits a sort of "wobb... Read More
