The Canon EOS R5 is a fantastic camera for pros or anyone searching for a very powerful alternative for practically any form of photography, from sports and action to studio portraits and landscapes.
It is a 45MP full-frame mirrorless camera with superb ergonomics, amazing Dual Pixel focusing, and the ability to record 8K video clips. It is the logical (and mirrorless) successor to Canon’s 5D-series DSLR cameras and can also record 10-bit HDR stills and video for HDR displays. Although it isn’t flawless, we believe it to be a great and fiercely competitive addition to the already crowded market of capable high-resolution full-frame mirrorless cameras.
How much will the EOS R5 cost?
The R5 is a true pro-level flagship with a price to match, following Canon’s successful debut into full-frame mirrorless with the 2018 EOS R and the less expensive EOS RP last year. Behind the new 1D X Mark III DSLR, this is now Canon’s second most costly camera at $3,899 without a lens.
Canon will likely now reduce the R6’s price by $200 to $400. It is said to contain a 30Mp sensor and will reportedly launch in the third quarter of 2021.
