I have an RP and my thoughts precisely when I looked into the R7 to compare….. Your systematic way to focus on key arguments one by one is very good and comprehensive. Thanks for this video.

The R7 is a race car. Compared to the RP which is more of a SUV. The RP is a great camera. But if you need speed then the R7/R5 is where you go.

I have the RP, but now I also own the R7. For me I use both for shooting. As i need a wide angle and dynamic range of RP. But I need the speed and AF from the R7 for bird and aviation photo. For me as an hobbyist photographer, both body was less expensive and give me the best of both world. The other thing that R7 excel is to be able to handheld at more lower shutter speed due to it having IBIS. I've tried both with RF 28mm f2.8 and 50mm f1.8. The R7 give me a lot more keeper than the RP even though the R7 is already 1.6X cropping.

I think there's a place for the EOS RP but it loses virtually every battle with the R7 except for cost and dynamic range (and not by a lot on the DR). Most every comparison outside of those two and the R7 smokes the RP by a large margin. The RP is really only good for when you have a lot of time to make a decision to take a still photo. It's so slow that you can't take any sort of action shots (and by action I mean anything moving). I'm not an action photographer but I have birds outside my office window that land on the vines. To get a shot with them flying I just bump my M6II (or R7 if I had one) up to 14fps, focus and rattle off a second of shots then grab the best one and go back to work. At 5 fps (4 with AF!) the RP will miss getting the wings in the right spot, I know because I have some slower cameras and I spend a lot longer trying to get the shot even at 9fps of my M6I. For video the RP can't compare to other full frame cameras because of the massive crop but the R7 already has a 4K 1.6 crop so the frame of view is pretty comparable however, and this is a big however the RP loses it's DPAF in 4K mode. This means you really have an EOS M3 at that point and anyone who's owned any of those contrast detect AF cameras know the 4K video is mostly unusable so it should be considered a 1080p video camera which maintains DPAF. I don't remember if the RP is pixel/line binned but that would also be important to know. This means the RP's main strength is still photography where dynamic range is important. That's really it's main strength and even then it's not much of one. The R7 is just superior in every way - DPAF II, full non-pixel binned 4K, 3-6 times faster burst mode, IBIS etc. it's just not a comparison. I don't think the RP is a lump of coal but people should know what they're getting. In most cases the R10 probably competes better with the RP than the R7. The RP would still win on dynamic range by a bit (maybe) but lose on most everything else, just by a smaller margin. I haven't compared the RP and the R10 but that may be a more interesting and closer race. Oh, one afterthought that would be an advantage of the RP - wide angle. Trying to get decent wide angle lenses for a crop sensor is always a struggle. But we're talking anything wider than 24 mm (FF). Above 24mm and there's no real difference, you just do the math and buy the right lens (50mm instead of 85mm etc).

I have had the Canon Rp for over 2 years and love the images that come out of it. It is slow but does everything i need it to do. For my line of work. Just wish battery lasted longer.

Umm..have you even tried the R7 before making this video? Because you seem to have read the specs and made a video about it, having almost no clue what you are talking about. RP uses basically the same sensor as a 6D Mark II, which is 5 years old, as for the R7 which uses a similar sensor to 90D which is 2 years newer. RP has a horrible Dynamic Range and I would bet the R7s is better. Better lowlight? I also kinda doubt that. DIGIC 8 vs DIGIC X processors as well. Its also not half the price - 1099eur vs 1499eur with rf-ef adapter. And you also have no clue about cinematography, since you're talking about FullFrame sensors in cinematography, which have been around for maybe 2-3 years, and not even fully incorporated in the movie industry. Get your facts straight and test out the equipment before posting this kinds of videos, please.

Damn… I wish I had seen this video when it came out… Less than a year ago, I bought an R7 and I am mostly interested in landscape photography. However, I don’t really have regrets because I do use the camera for occasional sports and wildlife photos and videos which the R7 is great at… but now I am thinking of buying an RP in addition to the R7... Great deals are still possible in 2024… It's so much easier to buy stuff than to go outside at 5 in the morning to take shots of the sunrise :). I think that the R7 is probably a more complete camera in addition to offer dual card slots and a bigger battery, because you can do more with it, but there is no question that the RP is better at some tasks. Great video, Mark, as always!

I have 3 RPs for my organization. We have many crop sensor cameras. When compared with crop sensor cameras, the images are miles better and way sharper especially at high ISO. In fact I can acceptable images even at ISO 8000. For the crop cameras, it cannot survive beyond ISO3200. So we can take pictures without flash indoor and yet it looks fantastic.

Does the RP agave a 30min record limit? That’s the only thing that steers me away because I record golf simulator videos and often need 30-45 mins record time in a single shoot

I own both. I'd debate some of the points here. I've had consistently better results with the R7 in low light. It's also stuck with a sensor that's exposed when changing lenses compared to the R7's sensor covered up when you change lenses. The R7 is also far faster in focus.. Bokeh can be overrated especially when most of the time, people don't shoot (I don't) at anything less than F4. The blurry background has its place, but both professionally/commercially and for personal, more in focus is often more valuable. Miss focus at a shallow depth of field and you have no room for recovery. And the battery.... it's terrible. I also only shoot with non-crop lenses bar 1 the 24 pancake ef-s (about 12 lenses) - What I do like about the RP is that it's quiet, simple, light, and a darn good backup and very helpful when shooting multicam video as long as have continuous power on it and feeding it direct from the mini hdmi. If you've been a Canon shooter with LPE6 batteries too, then that's just another reason to go R7 - carrying two battery formats around when shooting with multiple bodies is a royal pain.

Nice video! But… I went with the R7 instead 😊 especially since I mostly do video. I’ll go fullframe next, when Canon updates the R6 to mk2. And I’ll already have the full frame lenses by then!

You forgot the most important thing, at least for me, the IBIS. For handheld photo shooting with no stabilized lenses is a VERY big bonus. I use vintage and manual lenses and having IBIS is a heavy game changer. You can focus accurately even with long lenses

According to many tests, Canon RP is not better in dynamic range. It comes around 12 stops. Even my 80D has 13+ stops and is significantly older than the R7 Sensor. However, those APS-C sensors drastically lose image quality at higher ISO, while the RP practically does not perform worse until ISO 1600. However, I never really fell in love with those Canon APS-C sensors. I don't know if it is the strong AA filter, but they never seem to be as sharp as they could be. Since I use my lenses with an Adapter on Fuji cameras which don´t have an AA filter, I can really see what they are actually able to perform. However, I recently bought a RP as I still have some Canon lenses. They work on Fuji with an Fringer adapter, but somehow it is not the same. Some really are made for full frame. However, on the RP, I finally got the image quality I was looking for in the APS-C models, even though it is an inferior sensor on paper. It is definitely not for everyone. As you mentioned, sports and wildlife photographers are not the target audience. Also its not designed for pros. Its an camera made for amateurs that want to have fun and want to capture HQ images. For me, it is perfect to give a selection of vintage lenses a second life. A lot of their character comes from unique bokeh and vignetting that is way better pronounced in full frame.

Great video. I have the EOS R and the R7 and they work beautifully together. I use th R7 for birds and sports. I use the R for landscapes and portraits. Each shines in the area they were designed to shine. The R7 eye tracking and the frames per second is top notch. The R takes beautiful full frame landscapes. If you can't have both, decide what you shoot the most and go with that camera.

I have the RP, which I love. But since I’m much more video focused, the R7 is very attractive to me. I’m thinking of picking one up.

Buddy, A LOT RUBBISH opinions masquerading as facts in this video! It's a shame, because the viewers of your channel like the casual down to earth approach to video and photography subjects you normally present and will take your advice as gospel. I hope that you will revisit the subject once you also own an R7 and redeem yourself by presenting facts as facts rather than opinions as facts. I look forward to your future real life comparison between the 2 models, because this video wasn't it. (Can you point to tests done on R7 dynamic range? No. Is general comparison between full frame and crop sensors still valid as it was a decade ago? No. Due to wide range of manufacturing technologies the only way to say which sensor performs better, is to compare individual sensors. In fact the EOS RP dynamic range in low ISO is poor even when comparing to some APSC sensors. "Poor crop lens choices"? R7 and R10 are the only cameras in Canon's history which natively work with Canon's 4 lens ranges: EF, EF-S (both via native adapter), RF, RF-S. Not even mentioning 3rd party speed boosters. (Credit to Canon for finally sorting out that issue over the previous EF-S and EF-M conundrum). There is nothing wrong with RF lenses performance on Canon EOS R7. In fact the AF works BETTER, because R7 has a higher spec'ed CPU then EOS RP. APSC lens equivalence: you gave an example of EF 40mm lens "becoming alive" on RP. Canon made an equivalent APS-C lens first, it's called EF-S 24mm - it does exactly what it should. And since when having less megapixels is better for landscape photography?? And the majority of Hollywood cameras are APS-C sensors in form of Super35. There are other points which you have not addressed like user interface, weather protection, memory card implementation, which are inferior on RP yet important for general usage.)

Is it fair to compare APS-C to full-frame? I mean, R7 is basically a top-tier Canon APS-C camera, while RP is meh full-frame.

I've had the RP since 2021 when I upgraded from the Rebel T5 (big upgrade) - I still love it just as much as the day I bought it. When this one kicks, I'll buy whatever the equivalent replacement is down the road

A lot of this is just flat out wrong. R7 has better IQ, AF, IBIS and has IBIS. Crop RF lens selection sucks but adapted EF FF advantages can be brought back with a speed booster. I shoot FF but people put way too much weight on being able to say "I shoot FF". Just because a camera has a bigger sensor doesn't mean it's automatically better and the RP is a clear case of that. It's half the price of the R7 because it's an inferior camera in every way but sensor dimensions.

Good point but R7 has more features, you can get boosters, and still get bokeh with faster lenses.

R7 all the way. Low light performance is more than good enough. Plus the R7 has stabilization, so you’re gonna shoot lower iso than on the RP anyway. The dynamic range on the RP is not better. The R7 has really good clog and the results are comparable. The only thing going for the RP is shallower depth of field (you will still get plenty shallow depth of field on the R7 though). R7 is superior in all categories except the “full frame” factor which in my opinion is overrated anyways.

Nope Nope Nope I understand his point BUT the EOS R is the Camera to buy if your considering the R7 and want full frame OTHERWISE the R7 focus is lightyears ahead of both the RP and the R the FPS is lightyears ahead as well. The only reason to buy the RP in 2022 when you can get the R for 1100 all day used is because you want the smallest full frame canon makes.........

I sold my rp based on focus speed when I do events. Rp was awesome and I had it from day one but as soon as I could get an r7 I went for it lol.

I changed my mind btw - i sold the EOS RP, as much i liked fullframe, i will enter the full frame game with the EOS R5 Mk2 2nd hand in many years. But also only because i do more video and for basic landscape and family stuff im also fine with the R7 and a 17-55 2.8 and 10-20, otherwise im doing only wildlife anymore where i really need the proper gear. Also, i would consider the Meike Adapter with filter insert, 100$ more than the regular EF RF adapter but you get a V-ND and clear insert (100$ cost alone a clear insert at canon!). Especially on the EOS RP i enjoyed the filter adapter a lot when using mainly EF glass.

Great arguments! After seeing this video, I'm seriously considering buying the Canon RP for my photography purposes

Sheesh! And I just bought the Sigma 56 for my M50!

Yes it's a good camera, but you put folks in mistake. R7 have much better newer sensor. It have usable IBIS and oversampled 4K 10 bit in H.265 finally. Within all this this is the camera most people would need in 2022 even pros. Obviously it's bit more expensive but with all those improvement this makes a deal. And RP it's definitely not a camera for low light video as well as EOS R. You can hardly use those cameras above 1600 ISO in video department, so no one should expect R7 to be the low light beast. Nevertheless, it's definitely much better choice in 2022.

I currently shoot wildlife, nature, and some landscape with the RP and sigma 150-600 and can't wait to get rid of it. My keeper rate is about 50%. Horrible focus breathing, and pulsing to the point I just manual focus, 5 fps and miss half bird and waterfowl shots in action... I'm hoping to get an R7 or R5 within the next few months along with the 100-500 I would recommend the RP to someone who only has a budget of $1,000 for an entire rig. Or just strictly landscape, portrait stills. But even at that price point, once you add a lens, you're at 1,500 if you use the RF to EF adapter, and a used EF lens or 3rd party. I'd just probably pick up a used m6mk2 that is cheaper, faster, lighter, and has dpaf in 4k with more megapixels for cropping and for landscape, along with the sigma 1.4 trio. If you're doing strictly wildlife.....stay away from the RP

I meannn for video, the r7 is so much better

Fair warning. Beware 3rd party RF EF adapters. I bought one to save 50 bucks and after 2 days of shooting and lens changes i took a closer look inside my sensor area. They were using a much softer metal and the lens changes had been shaving off metal flakes into my sensor area. Thankfully i cleaned it out got away without damage, but i recommend spending an extra 50 bucks off the bat for the official adapter to save yourself the headache.

I've seen a bunch of tests which show the DR and ISO performance of the RP not being much better than the M6, so I don't know if this is a win by default for the FF RP.

Do a video comparing the RP vs R8! I’m trying to decide between the two!

I bought a screw driver in stead of a hammer and here is why I think you should too... If you want reach, get an R7. Its like shooting with an 81MP FF sensor and then cropping by a factor of 1.6 in the middle of the frame. If you want a wider field of view, get a R5/R6/RP...

Completely agree! For me I have the R7 and R6 and the R7 compliments my R6. The R6 is amazing on so many levels, but the R7 video features totally blow the R6 out of the water. I did comparisons on my channel. Keep up the good work!

I am planning to to buy RP. Do you think is this good for taking indoor videos also with all background blur, slow motion etc. in Best Buy they selling with default lens RF24-105 F4-7.1 IS STM lens. Will that be good lens for indoor videography and photography OR you suggest any better lens ? please suggest.

Both RP and R7 uses old sensors. Only that R7 is produced on a new proces. You are comparing using requirements that are valid for landscape and portrait photography. If you are a hybrid shooter then R7 is the way to go. Also you are saying a lot without a proof. When the RP was released DP review said that the video quality was one of the worst of camera in his price. Another point is that the dynamic range of old sensor in RP is the same as the new APS-C sensor of Fuji with at that time was in Fuji x-T4 and now Fuji X-S10. So Canon could design a new APS-C sensor using new technology. Simply they didn’t chose for marketing purposes called the Canon Cripplehamer.

Tests online have found that the R7 is great in low light.

No. RP is very dated. RP video files sux

What puts me off from the RP is all the reports of short battery life

Would love to see a video on what a m50 user should upgrade to! I’ve been using the m50 with the sigma lenses for the past 3 years and love it! But curious what the natural upgrade might be when the time comes….

RP is a great camera and a real bargain second hand.

These cameras are so different idk how you can make this call. The R7 is so much more video capable it isn’t even close.

All videos in my channel are taken with RP. It’s a great camera for RU-vid.

Refurbished RP body for $599 on Canons website right now! Got mine yesterday

In the early 2000s (2007?) I remembered seeing a photo shot with a Nikon D200 (APS-C, 10 MP) in National Geographic. I thought it was stunning. So stunning that later, I bought a D300, my principal camera, for years. I love the advances cameras have gained; however, good photos are taken by good photographers, not cameras. That said, the right camera for the job makes a photographer's work easier. FF sensors are great at giving you a blurred background, and tiny 1" sensors are fantastic for giving you zoom power in a tiny package. I now have many cameras, including a 6D Mark II. when that camera came out, reviewers complained about its dynamic range. However, it was better than the 5D Mark III, which was praised by the same influencers. When I recently took graduation portraits of my son, I used a FF camera, but when I was in his school's arena for the graduation ceremony, I used an old Sony RX10 with a 1" sensor (due to the size of the camera). I was happy with both sets of images.

RP has lower dynamic range (R7's RAW files are more flexible as well), it's silent mode is barely useable (you have to use a specific "silent" mode), it doesn't have İBİS, it's EVF is inferior, it's AF is good but nowhere as good as R7 (which rivals top cameras). RP is cheaper, it's high İSO (probably after İSO3200) is better.

I do both. So I have both. 😜.

I picked up an RP pre-loved and I still have an M6 Mk 2- so I'm quite happy - oh.and I have an ancient 5D mk 2 and an M50- they are all brilliant...

R7 + Speedbooster + FF EF glass!!

I have an old Canon DSLR and I bought a r100 recently so that I can get back into photography as a hobby. I am really happy with the r100 and I am planning to get a full frame mirrorless maybe in a year. This video is making me want to get an RO today lol I am going to spend more time with my r100 however. It is a lot more than I expected considering I paid $237 for it brand new. It's small enough that I know I'll keep it forever as a travel camera. With a 35 or 50 mm lens it's still pretty small.

I'm glad you cleared up the thing about "unless you are a Wildlife shooter" right away, as that is exactly what I am. I have an R5 already, but it's always in the 1.6 crop mode, for extra reach, which drops it to a measley 17mp's ☹️ I'm totally thinking about the R7 for 32mp's with the same reach as my R5 in crop mode.... And as a backup for my R5. Really need a backup when doing cross country birding trips.

People fighting in the comments just get the R8 😅 imo much better camera for the money in terms of everything except the IBIS but most of the RF lenses are stabilized anyway.

The problem with buying the RP is what if I need the 1.6 crop? Should I move to Nikon aps-c?

I have the RP and the R7, and I question the idea that that the RP has better dynamic range. The RP can still take great photos, and it's maybe a stop better than the R7 with high ISO. I actually prefer the lens performance on the R7, since it crops the edges and corners. The RP is no slouch, and it deserves to remembered for affordable full frame, but the R7 actually performs better overall.

i managed to get a bundle of 3 EF USM (gold ring) prime lenses (28 f1.8, 50 f1.4, 100 f2) in very good condition with the original packaging and stuff for cheap, i have an old rebel t3i (600D) and im not sure if the RP is still worth it as today, what do you think?

No way lol I had that wobbly video, flawed photo camera, worst cam I ever owned

Traitor m system 🤣🤣🤣

Concerning the low light performance, I've seen several tests comparing RP to R7, and the R7 won those.

I found this channel when i first bought my m50 and it has been invaluable to me...2 days ago, I upgraded to the Canon RP. Like dude, get out of my brain haha.

I got the R8 lol

My biggest thing is, the RP does not record 4k 60 at all, no IBIS, and no CLog. The R7 from what I have seen very much compares with the RP. As a hybrid shooter R7 is the better buy hands down. Stills RP for sure, awesome video.

I'm a newbie, I've been using canon 77d for years. the war in my country showed that you need to do what you like. I definitely need to improve the camera. I want to buy sony a7iii, but not a new one, I watched a lot of videos and information, maybe someone will give me advice on which camera is better to buy, sony a7iii or canon RP

Your videos are really really good. Clear and on point!

Just ordered my RP. $599 Canon refurbished!

I INCREDIBLY appreciate you opening the video with the disclaimer for action photography, saved me time in trying to understand if the R7 was right for me or not.

From the Canon 2Q22 Financial Report: "Unit sales of mirrorless cameras were above those of the same period of the previous year due to strong demand for the full-frame mirrorless cameras including the EOS R5 and EOS R6 and the favorable reviews of the new EOS R7." Only R5, R6 and R7 are specially mentioned. RP is 40% discounted in Amazon to clear stagnant stock? Meanwhile many people are still waiting for the delivery of their EOS R7.

Good analysis, two completely different usage.

Do ef/ef-s lenses work properly on the full frame sensor (with an adapter)?

Conclusion getting RP does not help you to budget RF lenses ... since yoh can’t afford RF lens , big chance you have to get an adapter to buy cheaper and older canon lens which perform slow and produce crap xiaomi HP level kind of photos... might well just get a used Mark II instead ... Anyway R7 will have more lens in the future .. and screw all the crop complaints .. good photographer eventually will find away ... personally i still think underdog R with the price still the best in value ... meanwhile R7 currently has no competition for camera price around that ..

Mark I never felt making the wrong choice following your gear & camera suggestions, and I`m gonna do the same for this time.

I do Landscape and enjoying HDR mode on my RP so im not so bothered about the blownout skies anymore with that feature, and for portraits? Oh man, you can't go wrong with full frame It'l give you nice and good result and it has high Dynamic range than my previous crop sensor.

Those inexpensive RF 1.8 canon lenses are not in line with other manufacturers lenses. Those canon lenses have external zoom elements on the front that protrudes out of the front. Most other lenses are all internal. Those inexpensive lenses were a turn off to me. Wanted to like canon but those lenses are a deal breaker for me.

I kind of thought that the IBIS on the R7 would make it at least as good in low light as the RP

Excellent video, really enjoyed it. I think all of us in the Uk will have to make a decision to buy the rp, r5 or r6, maybe even change brands as canon has not supplied stocks of the r7 in this country, or even say if they ever will. Rumours are we will have to wait until next year.

A good video that explains it all so beautifully. I’m a bit confused with the rapid fire cameras that Canon has pushed out- as in R3,R5,R6,R7,R10. I’ve been using the Canon M50 for two years and it is fine but wanted to go full frame. I’m just thinking of total change from Canon to Sony A7iv…..thoughts? Although having watched your video, the RP looks a good second camera and keeps me with Canon

While I don't think you're wrong, necessarily, the sensors in the R7 and R10 actually have more dynamic range than the RP so I think that for general beginners that will tend to screw up exposure more often they would probably be better, by a stop or two than the RP sensor maybe?

GOODJOB! Good explanation from this channel!!!!!!!

You can't really compare the difference between these 2 R bodies!!! I've had the RP for 3.5 years now& it's now my astro modified camera. The R7 IS & will be A FAR better camera then the RP. I can't help but laugh at your comment about the RP's low being better than the R7! You don't know much about camera's with statements like that. I have the R5 & R as well. You're wrong again about the lenses available!! Any R lens will FIT any R body!!!! Yes, it'll change go to crop mode. I think you speak allot of CODSWALLOP!!!

did you happen to do a low light test between the RP and the R7? because the R7 sensor seems to do even better than the R6... sensor size isn't all that matters, since better technology can render better results with smaller sensors. This video is a lot of assumptions and not much empirical evidence.

I went with the RP upgraded from a 70d

Putt a speedbooster on r7, then r7 eats RP alive. Because DOF becomes almost the same as full frame, r7's dynamic range is slightly better, it has IBIS, much higher mp count, AND, with superior auto focus....full frame has become a kind of religion for many, but hey, there is nothing wrong with that. I'm very much i favor of freedom of religion.

All these videos i keep seeing people not mentioning crop 4k for the eos rp.

RP is just a tool, nothing more, although it can deliver, and that even professional results, using it is just uninspiring. When I use car analogy, if Canon R7 is 2022 Honda Civic Type-R, Canon RP is "brand new" 2016 Toyota Camry in basic specs rescued from storage.

Hummm, I thought the R7 has the brain 🧠 of the R3? Question 🙋‍♀️ your saying you can’t take portraits with an R7???

Full frame sensors have a higher absolute number of dedicated lenses that are great than cropped sensors have. There is no technical reason for this - but amateurs tend to buy cheaper cropped sensors/lenses - proffessionals tend to buy expensive full frame sensors/lenses - its just a tradition. Full frame lenses may work fine on cropped sensors but are a considerable waste of glass/weight/money and a suboptimal design for cropped sensors. A f/2 cropped lense can be compared - exactly - to an f/2.8 full frame lense on every parameter: height, lenght, weight, design, depth of field, optical performance, geometry, etc.. The only limit for cropped sensors is sensor area, that is: the number of pixels can be twice as high on full frame sensors, so if more than 50 Mp, low light noise and dynamic range/ highlights are very important your work - then go full frame. Also go full frame if the new or used lense selection is important to you - in the future. But don't buy into the myth that full frame is a superior optical format due to lense design and depth-of-field. Example: an expensive well designed f/1.4 16 mm cropped lense - ought to have similar performance and price to an f/2 24 mm full frame lense; the two lenses should have the same lense design, but one focuses the light on a small sensor - and the other spreads it thin on a big sensor. Full frame systems have much bigger lense line-ups, but the best 10% cropped lenses are better than the worst 60% full frame lenses.

I am thinking between R10 and RP for pet photography indoor and outdoor. I have a limited budget so would like to get a decent camera with a good prime lens 24-105 F4L. Which one will suit me best?

Thank you very much for your videos, I found your channel very informative and I love the way how you can pass your knowledge. I would like to ask you for some advice if possible. I am about to buy Canon camera, mostly for you tube work and mostly for cooking videos made always from tripod. My budget is not the biggest around 1000$ for the body or body plus kit lens, I watched your videos about canon R10 and Canon RP. I would really appreciate if you could advice me which camera would be better for that purpose and also taking in account buying some lenses later on. Thank you so much. All the best

So the RP can't handle any action or sports photos? I have a d7000. Is it at least better than that one?

Which other lens should we get along with default one Rf 24-105 mm if we are into portraits, street, nightlife. Please suggest

Battery life is poor on the RP, I just hate changing tiny batteries on a camera. I really wouldn't buy for that one reason alone. If your going to be shooting for a prolonged time, think again about buying the RP.

Hi John Modiba SA. I am a general potrait photograper .How is the eye focus of the Canon Rp on its own. I understand it does not compare to the R7.your comment.

The EOS RP has worse dynamic range at base ISO, but it catches up at higher ISO values. It can even match Sony A7RIV going ISO 1600 or above. On the other hand, at the price point of R7, the competition is quite fierce, all with various trade-offs. Just to name a few: EOS R, Panasonic S5, G9, GH5, Sony A7 III, A7C, Nikon Z5, Olympus EM-1 MK 3, EM-1X. It's really up to the buyer to decide what trade-offs and what features they are looking for.

I would recommend the EOS RP for those who are looking in the $1500 to $1800 range as well. You get full-frame, 30MP, and it's a slightly newer camera.

i love the review thanks;)

Your Video got me thinking again. Almost pulled trigger on R7. What are your thoughts for R6?

glad you put the R7 in a better light toward the end of your video, I was getting worried that i had ordered the wrong camera, I was told you can have an average camera and get great photos if you practice to be a better photographer

Cool : ) hey Mark can you do some side by side images you take with the new RP and the M6 love to look at them Thanks

I used the RP before moving to the R3. Never had an issue really. Once you know how to expose your photos you shouldn’t have an issue. I used it for years. Loved it. Jared the battery life and 1 card slot.

I think the rp is even better than the eos r and eos r6 I’m not even kidding ! The photos are literally identical and the video is more than enough for the price…please don’t waste your money to those ones the rp is more than enough even after 5 years
