Canon EOS R7 Review

Excellent value ; Stabilized 32.5MP sensor ; Magnesium body material resists dust and splashes ; Class-leading autofocus with subject recognition ; Fires at 15fps with mechanical shutter ; 4K60 video with 10-bit C-Log3 or HDR

Love-it or hate-it hybrid rear control wheel ; So-so EVF for an enthusiast camera ; Electronic shutter not ideal for freezing action

The Canon EOS R7 brings the heat to competing APS-C cameras with its fast and accurate autofocus and flexible video tools, making it a fine choice for photographers and videographers alike.

Canon EOS R7 review: A potent content creator camera

If you want to start learning and earning as a content creator, the Canon EOS R7 is a great mid-range option

Easy one-handed use ; Lightweight and durable magnesium body ; Dual slot SD ; Competitively priced ; Excellent IBIS ; Fully articulating touch screen

Canon EOS R7 Review

The power and performance delivered by the relatively affordable Canon EOS R7 are impressive. This camera handles most challenges with ease, and most importantly, the imagery it can capture is outstanding. Wildlife photographers (including birders) and...

Canon EOS R7 Review

Canon is back in the APS-C game with the much-anticipated launch of the EOS R7, a very capable prosumer camera with a clear focus on speed. Billed as the mirrorless successor to the much loved EOS 7D Mark II DSLR, does the new R7 have what it takes to...

In late May, Canon hosted us and some of our colleagues in the industry at a special launch event in Orlando, Florida. The purpose of the event was to give us a hands-on look at Canon's new – and first two – APS-C EOS R mirrorless cameras, the EOS R7...

Canon EOS R7 review

Compact interchangeable lens APS-C sensor incorporating mirrorless camera with a big resolution, inspired by Canon's own EOS 7D DSLR

Compact camera body ; Accessible price point ; Large 32.5MP pixel count ; Swift operation

Requires investment in Canon RF series lenses ; No built-in flash ; Close price point to some full-frame EOR R models

The Canon EOS R7 offers a slightly better build quality and additional features over its near outwardly identical looking sibling in the EOS R10 released alongside it, the biggest difference on paper at least being the larger pixel count of the EOS R7....

Canon EOS R7 review

The speedy Canon EOS R7 is a fine camera with one weakness

Fast burst shooting ; Great value ; Good handling ; Excellent autofocus and stabilization

Lack of native APS-C lenses ; Average electronic viewfinder ; Lack of 4K/120p video

There’s an awful lot to like about the Canon EOS R7 and it feels like the mid-range camera that a lot of Canon fans have been waiting for. It’s fast, has powerful autofocus that keeps up with a range of subjects, produces excellent images, handles well...

Canon EOS R7 review: Now we just need some lenses

The R7 is Canon's flagship APS-C camera and it's one of the first APS-C cameras to utilise the brand's RF mount. We put it to the test.

Great autofocus and subject recognition ; Capable IBIS system ; Ergonomic design ; Speedy burst shooting ; Good value for money

Very few RF lenses designed for APS-C ; The new rear wheel isn't great ; Slow sensor readout can introduce rolling shutter

The Canon R7 is an extremely capable and well-priced camera but it's let down by its lack of lens options. If Canon releases some more compelling glass for the RF-S system, it'll be much easier to recommend.

Canon EOS R7 review: APS-C all-rounder

A fast-shootin', focus-findin' CSC worth getting excited about? The Canon EOS R7 makes a strong case for APS-C

Rapid autofocus and continuous shooting ; Great APS-C image quality ; Amateur-friendly layout doesn’t skimp out on manual controls

Lens line-up far from extensive ; Rivals offer more expansive video options ; Viewfinder could be sharper

A potent mid-ranger with speed, image quality and handling on its side. It’s still early doors in terms of lenses, but Canon fans will feel right at home.
