Canon EOS R8

Switch to full-frame photography and video and realize your creative ambitions.

MAKE THE LEAP TO FULL FRAME

Give your creativity an upgrade to full-frame capture. Better bokeh, wider viewing angles, and improved image quality that will impress you even in low light.

Also full-frame videos

The advantage of a full-frame sensor also extends to videos for stunning cinematic results.

Intelligent autofocus

Photos or video: keep subjects in sharp focus as they move through the frame.

The full-frame sensor advantage

Enjoy wider dynamic range, reduced digital noise, and crystal-clear details – that’s the advantage of the EOS R8 full-frame sensor camera.

Shoot with shallower depth of field

Ideal for impactful portraits. The larger sensor provides shallower depth of field and greater dynamic range. Make your subject stand out with a smooth, out-of-focus background with beautiful bokeh. Capture more details in the dark and bright areas.

Shoot with a wider angle

Transform the way you see the landscape and get closer for captivating documentary images.

FULL-FRAME DEPTH OF FIELD

Compare the background blur of the EOS R8 to that of an APS-C camera. Extremely sharp subjects are better emphasized against a smooth, blurred background.

FULL-FRAME VIEWING ANGLE

See how a 15mm lens looks on the full-frame EOS R8 compared to an EOS camera with a smaller APS-C sensor. Each focal length gives a 1.6x wider viewing angle.

FIND THE DIRECTOR IN YOU

By oversampling 6K sensor data, the EOS R8 produces high-quality 4K video footage at frame rates up to 60p. If you're new to videography, you'll love how easily the camera lets you get creative with different frame rates and resolutions. You'll appreciate the advanced features as you become a truly good director.

Professional color grading

Use the EOS R8's low-contrast Canon Log 3 color profile for more color grading options. These shots retain details in bright highlights and dark shadows thanks to the wide dynamic range.

Nuances of slow motion

Add feel and emotion to movement by shooting up to 180p in Full HD.2 When viewed at normal playback speed, subjects appear in gorgeous slow motion – revealing hidden details in their movement.

MANY FUNCTIONS, SMALL SIZE

The EOS R8 is our lightest full-frame mirrorless camera to date, weighing just 461g.4
Enjoy the advantage of a full-frame sensor wherever you shoot – from decisive moments on the streets to distant landscapes and adventures.

• 24.2-megapixel full-frame sensor

  An ideal balance of detail, speed, and low-light performance, whether you're shooting stills or video.
