Meet the Canon EOS R1 Digital Mirrorless Camera in
Black, the brand-new full-frame professional camera intended for long-lasting,
fast-action photography and carrying on the history of the EOS-1 Series. The
EOS R1 includes built-in subject detection and tracking, eye control, and other
features. To begin the pre-recording process, push the shutter button halfway
and capture the previous 1/2-second photographs before pressing the shutter
fully. The new 24.2 MP back-illuminated stacked CMOS sensor, which was
developed in-house, strikes a balance between speed and quality to improve
low-light performance. The new Action Priority focusing technology picks subjects
based on movement, resulting in excellent action photos. The camera detects
specific individuals, balls, and movements and use eye-control AF to get exact
action images even in lively scenarios.
Stay in Focus
The EOS R1 delivers next-level autofocus. Canon's innovative subject-tracking
technology helps you to stay focused on a subject even if it becomes obstructed
temporarily during filming. The R1 includes Canon's Eye Control AF, which is
superior to the Eye Control in the EOS R3 camera. After calibrating the
viewfinder to your eye, look where you wish to focus, and the AF Area will
shift when you push the AF activation button. This new mechanism is durable
enough to function while the user wears glasses. Autofocus prioritizes
registered people when more than one face is recognized. Making a new
record for Canon, the CMOS sensor now incorporates cross-type AF points,
providing a more positive focus response to scenes with a lot of linear detail,
such as window blinds or boardwalk boards. The revolutionary focusing system
selects objects based on movement and other characteristics, ensuring you
always get a superb action image. Action priority allows the camera to monitor
individual people, balls, movement, and eye-control AF, guaranteeing that you
get the perfect action photo even in hectic settings. Currently works with
three sports: soccer, volleyball, and basketball. When activated, pressing the
shutter button halfway will begin the pre-recording process. When you fully
depress the shutter, the previous 1/2-second of images will be written to the
memory card (up to 20 if shooting at 40 fps) and the camera will continue to
capture images until you let go of the shutter button.
Accelerator Chip
Canon designed the DIGIC Accelerator chip as an entirely new front-end
processor to augment the power of the well-established DIGIC X processor. It
analyzes enormous amounts of data directly from the image sensor for functions
such as AF detection and exposure metering calculations, allowing eye-control
focus, subject identification, and tracking. The DIGIC Accelerator processor
also includes a helpful neural upscaling capability that employs deep learning
to double the horizontal and vertical size of a JPEG on your card (while
leaving the original image alone) in approximately 10 seconds. That implies you
can upscale a 24 MP image to 96 MP directly in the camera. The EOS R1 boasts an
all-new 24.2 MP back-illuminated stacked CMOS sensor, resulting in
lightning-fast readout rates and improved low-light performance. This robust
sensor produces superb image clarity while almost eliminating rolling shutter
distortion and is ideal for high-speed shooting.
Other Highlights
The new electronic viewfinder is Canon's greatest ever, with a 9.44 million dot
resolution on an OLED display, a 0.9x magnification, and the highest maximum
brightness of any EOS R-Series camera. Furthermore, several of the EVF lenses
inside the body are sealed in an airtight construction, reducing the likelihood
that the viewfinder may fog up. Create with the speed and storage required for
demanding tasks. The Dual Card Slots for CFexpress cards enable you to record
smaller proxy movies in slot 2 while recording high-resolution footage on the
primary card in slot 1. The two slots also allow you to capture 17 MP photos to
slot 2 while recording video on the main card without interrupting the video.
The EOS R1 is designed with reliable dust and weather resistance. With the
improved sensor and the addition of the new DIGIC Accelerator chip, the R1 can
take RAW, JPEG, or HEIF (HDR-PQ) shots at up to 40 fps utilizing the electronic
shutter. The EOS R1 includes three stabilization methods (in-body, optical, and
movie digital IS) for exceptional stabilization performance, particularly while
shooting videos, where it can assist decrease blur in the peripheral area. IS
(Coordinated Control) measures 8.5 stops in the center and 7.5 stops on the
periphery.
