Canon announces EOS R7 and R10 with APS-C sensors

Prasad, 24 May 2022

Canon today announced two new members of its mirrorless R-series of cameras. The EOS R7 and R10 are notable for being the first to feature Canon's APS-C crop sensors compared to the previous models in the series that all had full-frame sensors.

The EOS R10 is now the entry-level model in the series. It features Canon's familiar 24.2MP APS-C CMOS sensor that the company uses in many of its other cameras. Coupled with a DIGIC X processor, the EOS R10 is capable of 15fps burst capture with the mechanical shutter and 23fps with the electronic shutter.

The R10 has a revamped autofocus system from more expensive R-series camera that can now track people, animals, and vehicles. New scene modes have been added including a focus stacking mode and a panorama mode.

The EOS R10 is capable of recording video in 4K 30fps by supersampling from the full width of the sensor. It can also record in 4K 60fps with a 1.56x crop. There is also a 10-bit 4:2:2 HDR PQ recording option but no C-Log 3.

On the back is a 2.36M-dot OLED EVF with a 3-inch fully articulating touchscreen with 1.04M-dot resolution. You get USB-C connectivity with USB-PD charging, micro HDMI, and microphone jack. There is a single UHS-II SD card slot under the battery cover, which also houses the smaller LP-E17 battery.

On the more expensive EOS R7, we have a 32.5MP APS-C CMOS sensor that we have seen on a couple other Canon cameras in the past. Along with the new DIGIC X processor, it can do 15fps burst with the mechanical shutter and 30fps with the electronic shutter. The R7 can also do 4K 30fps full-width supersampled, or 4K 60fps with line-skipped full-width or 1.81x crop. The R7 also includes C-Log 3 recording option.

Compared to the R10, the R7 has in-body image stabilization, dust and moisture resistance, higher resolution 1.62M-dot LCD on the back, dual UHS-II SD card slots on the side, a headphone jack on top of all the other ports the R10 has, and a larger LP-E6NH battery. However, it does not have a flash, which the R10 does.

Common to both cameras is a 7.0 stops digital image stabilization, ability to record indefinitely without the 30 minute limit, and a manual AF/MF switch on the body for lenses without this option.

Canon also announced two new RF-S lenses, which are optimized for the smaller sensor size. This includes the RF-S18-45mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM and RF-S18-150mm F3.5-6.3 IS STM. These lenses have a 1.6x crop factor when used with an APS-C sensor. The good thing is, you can use any RF lens on any R-series camera.

The EOS R10 is priced at $980 for the body-only, $1099 with the RF-S18-45mm, and $1379 with the RF-S18-150mm. The EOS R7 is priced at $1499 for the body-only and $1899 with the RF-S18-150mm.

The RF-S18-45mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM will be available for $300 and the RF-S18-150mm F3.5-6.3 IS STM for $479. All products will be available in late 2022.

Man me too. Its was nice story what you said but it was just another boring story as expected. But i am last to judge since i am a man of the future and you guys are reincarnation of the past.

Once again ignored my points, "man". I'll say it again, there is a reason people still appreciate analog media. Have you seen vinyl sales lately? In 2021, vinyl sales grew to $1.0 BILLION for the first time since 1986. If vinyl records...

Again, you don't know what you are talking about. What you hear is not the same as what the camera "hears". Or you think you are smart, and all the professionals using external headphone and microphones are idiots? Also, what are these...
