Canon EOS R8 Mirrorless Camera with RF 24-50mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM Lens

The EOS R8 combines high-performance full-frame capabilities with a lightweight and compact design. With a 24.2 megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor, full use of EOS R-series interchangeable lenses, and highly advanced functionality and performance, the EOS R8 can deliver high-quality stills and movies. The new RF24–50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM standard zoom lens is a super-compact, wide to-standard focal length zoom lens perfect for anyone looking for strong wide-angle still imagery and video combined with easy handling and portability

High Image Quality Featuring a 24.2 Megapixel Full-Frame CMOS Sensor

The EOS R8 camera captures stunning, detailed images with speed and accuracy, even in low light, due to the Canon-developed 24.2-million-pixel CMOS image sensor and DIGIC X Image Processor. The full-frame sensor allows for improved resolution at low ISO speeds and low noise at high ISO speeds, a wide dynamic range of still pictures, and significant improvement in rolling shutter compared to previous Canon cameras.

In-Camera Compositing

With its built-in image processing, the EOS R8 camera provides in-camera compositing including Moving Subject HDR, Depth Compositing, Panoramic Shot, HDR Night Scene, and HDR Backlight control so you can capture creative imagery that is challenging with conventional single-shot techniques.

High-Speed, High-Precision Autofocus

Dual Pixel CMOS AF II is a highly responsive system that covers up to approximately 100% x 100% of the picture area, breaking the image into up to 1,053 automatically-selected AF zones during Whole Area AF.

Accurate Subject Detection and Tracking 

Developed using Deep Learning Technology, horses, trains, and airplanes are detectable, in addition to conventional subjects like people, animals including dogs, cats and birds, and vehicles — cars and motorcycles — especially in a motorsports environment. For more ease of use, Auto mode is now available, in which the camera automatically selects the type of subject without the need to switch the Subject Detection setting in the menu. The EOS R8 camera will continue to track the movement and continuously focus on the subject. 

Head, Face, Eye, and Animal Detection

The EOS R8 camera can locate and focus upon a person’s head, face, or eye when the Subject Detection menu is set to People. This allows for more ease of use, fast acquisition of your subject, and improvements to accuracy when capturing videos or still images, even in difficult shooting situations where many cameras may struggle to detect a subject. Effectively track the whole body, face, or eye of cats, dogs, birds, and now horses, for speed and precision.

Ample Features for Video Creators

With video recording features such as 6K oversampled uncropped 4K movie at up to 60 fps, Full-HD High-frame rate movie recording at up to 180 fps4, and Dual Pixel CMOS AF tracking, the EOS R8 camera makes it easy to step up your video content.

Continuous Movie Recording That Exceeds 30 Minutes

The EOS R8 camera can continuously record 4K UHD or Full HD video for up to 2 hours at 29.97 fps, allowing you to set up your video and keep your project rolling without worrying about it stopping.

HDR PQ / Canon Log 3

Though the EOS R8 camera can record impressive video straight out of camera, content creators looking to take the next step in their imaging journey have the choice of two powerful video recording options in HDR PQ or Canon Log 3 video recording. With HDR PQ recording a 10-bit color file is recorded that does not require additional editing, this 10bit HDR file is compatible with HDR displays such as TVs, monitors and smartphones which display your video with even more color accuracy and dynamic range.
