Canon EOS R - Now also mirrorless full-frame system camera from Canon

[10:39 Wed,5.September 2018   by Rudi Schmidts]    

After Nikon could present its first full format mirrorless system cameras Z6 and Z7 with some sensation, today it is Canon&s turn. The first EOS R model is a mirrorless 35mm full-frame camera, with which Canon is now also launching a new product series.

Similar to Nikon, the EOS EF(-S) lenses of the Canon DSLRs, which are numerously represented on the market, can still be used via an adapter. However, this does not apply to EF-M lenses from Canon&s EOS-M series of mirrorless APS-C cameras.

Canon&s new full format mount is now called RF-Mount. Similar to Nikon, the upgrade will be sweetened by some especially exciting sounding premium L-optics, which will only be available for the new RF mount (among others the Canon RF 28-70mm F/2L USM and a new 50mm F/1.2L USM).

Instead of an optical viewfinder as in the SLR models, the Canon EOS R has an OLED viewfinder (3,690,000 pixels, 1,280 x 960 resolution) and a fold-out touch LCD display with 2.1 pixels. The empty housing (135.8 x 98.3 x 84.4 mm) weighs 580 g. WLAN according to IEEE 802.11b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.1 and USB 3.1 standards were also integrated.

The camera will be launched with a 30.3 megapixel sensor (36 x 24mm) which leaves some questions about the usable crop factors unanswered. In any case there will be a Super35mm-Crop, which can probably read the 4K Sensel (5.36 µm) pixelatively. A full sensor readout does not seem to be implemented. For slashCAM readers, the video specifications secured so far are likely to be of great interest:

4K the camera can only record internally in UHD format (3840 x 2160) at 24-30fps. Up to 60 fps are possible in FullHD (1920 x 1080). 120 fps are finally only implemented with 720p (1280 x 720). The internal storage is MPEG-4 AVC / H.264 with 8 bit 8:2:0 chroma subsampling. Interframe recording (IPB) with up to 120 Mbps and intraframe (ALL-I) coding with up to 480 Mbps are available.

The camera has a recording limit of 29min 59sec, but uses EXFat to write files larger than 4GB. As a reminder, at a data rate of 480 Mbps, around 4GB of data is generated after just 70 seconds.

The EOS R can write these data rates to UHS-II compatible SD cards. The EOS R has only one SD slot. A 4K signal with 10 bit 4:2:2 can be output via the HDMI output.

DualPixel autofocus should be available for movie recording, but it is not yet confirmed whether this also applies to 4K mode or only to FullHD recording. Canon Log 1 is available according to the German data sheet. In combination with the EOS R, Canon promises "only" 12 f-stops at ISO400.

Two histograms (Luma and RGB) are available as exposure aids. Peaking should be integrated for sharpness assessment.

The EOS R, RF optics and various kits will be available for pre-order from 12 September. We don&t know German prices yet, but the dollar prices give a hint in which direction the fun is going:

The Canon EOS R case will cost . In the kit with the RF 24-105mm f/4L IS it should be 3399 dollars. The RF L lens prices are not from bad parents: 2299 dollars for the RF 50 f/1.2L USM, 2999 dollars for the RF 28-70 f/2L USM and 499 dollars for the RF 35mm f/1.8 IS STM Macro
