The Canon EOS R8 Camera combines high-performance full-frame capabilities with a lightweight and compact design for creators ready to step up their content creation. With a 24.2 megapixel full-frame CMOS image sensor, an RF mount allowing access to various creative lenses, and powerful stills and video functionality, the EOS R8 camera helps you capture stunning imagery to empower your creative vision. The 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. Also provided in this kit is the lightweight Canon Tripod Grip HG-100BTR, so you can stabilize the EOS R8 camera on a table, counter, or another surface to help you get clear and steady photos or videos, and a detachable Bluetooth-enabled remote to operate the camera from a distance or enable you to be part of the scene. To complement the rich video quality, you can get crisp audio using the bundled Canon Stereo Microphone DM-E100 indoors and even outdoors with the included windscreen.
Lightweight and Ergonomic
Weighing less than a pound (body only), the EOS R8 camera is incredibly lightweight and compact while offering a high-quality full-frame imaging experience, utilizing the RF lens mount, and providing access to a catalog of high-performance creative lens options. This offers photographers and content creators a convenient and portable camera in a comfortable, ergonomic package for travel, hiking, or everyday shooting.
High-Quality Images
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 a significant improvement in rolling shutter compared to previous Canon cameras when shooting fast-moving subjects and quick panning.
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 percent of the picture area, breaking the image into up to 1053 automatically-selected AF zones during Whole Area AF. This enables outstanding AF coverage on the EOS R8 camera and the compositional freedom to focus sharply on a subject nearly anywhere in the frame.
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.
Animal Detection
Effectively track the whole body, face, or eye of cats, dogs, birds, and now horses, for speed and precision, regardless of the animal’s size, posture, or orientation of the face.
Ample Features for Video Creators
With video recording features such as 6K oversampled uncropped 4K movie recording at up to 60 fps, Full HD High-frame rate movie recording at up to 180 fps, and Dual Pixel CMOS AF tracking, the EOS R8 camera makes it easy to step up your video content.
