- Product Name: EOS R8 4K Video Mirrorless Camera (Body Only)
- Color: Black
- Product Set: Body Only
- Camera Model Family: Canon R8
- Digital Camera Type: Mirrorless Camera Body Only
- Imaging
- Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
- Image Sensor Size: 35mm Full Frame (36 x 24 mm)
- Total Pixels: 25 megapixels (Generally, the more pixels, the higher the image resolution and the finer the detail that can be seen.)
- Digital Zoom: 10x (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
- Image File Format(s): JPEG, HEIF, RAW (Standardized software format(s) of storing digital images. The type of format chosen for capturing and compressing the image can determine quality, level of detail, and storage space required.)
- Focus
- Autofocus: true (Allows the camera to automatically focus through the lens, rather than by adjusting the lens manually.)
- Eye Autofocus (Eye AF): true (Automatically seeks out and focuses on the subject's eye and holds it as the camera and subject move and as the photographer shoots at high frame rates.)
- Number of Autofocus Points (Up To): 4897
- Exposure Control
- Shutter Speeds: Electronic 1st-curtain shutter:1/4000th sec – 30 seconds, in 1/3 or ½-step increments. Electronic shutter:1/8000th sec – 30 seconds, in 1/3 or ½-step increments. (The length of time the shutter remains open when the shutter release is activated, expressed in fractions of seconds. The longer the shutter is open, the more light that is able to be captured by the camera sensor.)
- Minimum ISO: 100 (ISO is the measurement of a camera image sensor's light sensitivity. When there is plenty of light, using the lowest ISO setting available will typically result in a higher quality image.)
- Maximum ISO: 102400 (ISO is the measurement of a camera image sensor's light sensitivity. In low-light environments, using a higher ISO setting helps to capture a sharp, bright image.)
- Maximum Expandable ISO: 204800 (ISO is the measurement of a camera image sensor's light sensitivity. Expandable ISO settings use software to simulate brighter images than the device's native ISO range is capable of capturing.)
- Burst Mode: true (Also referred to as continuous shooting. This feature captures multiple shots in rapid succession.)
- Self Timer: true
- Self-Timer Delay: 2 seconds, 10 seconds, Continuous shooting
- Shooting Modes: (1) Scene Intelligent Auto (2) Hybrid Auto (3) Special Scenes (4) Creative Filters (5) Flexible-priority AE (6) Program AE (7) Shutter-priority AE (8) Aperture-priority AE (9) Manual Exposure (10) Bulb Exposure (11) Custom Shooting Modes C1, C2, C3 (Exposure modes employed by the photographer to control the optimal aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and other settings for capturing specific subjects/scenes. Examples include Aperture-Priority, Macro, and Manual modes.)
- White Balance Modes: (1) Auto (Ambience priority/White priority) (2) Daylight (3) Shade (4) Cloudy*1 (5) Tungsten light (6) White fluorescent light (7) Flash (8) Custom (Custom WB) (9) Color temperature*2 *1: Effective also in twilight and sunset.

- Display Type: TFT-LCD
- Screen Size: 3 inches (Size of the screen, measured diagonally from corner to corner.)
- Viewfinder Type: Electronic (A viewfinder is the part of a camera (or attachment) that allows you to see and focus a scene in frame. Optical viewfinders let you view the scene directly through the lens. Electronic viewfinders display the image on a screen in its approximate final form.)
- Touch Screen: true (Touch-screen devices make navigating more intuitive. Using a touch-screen display, you can do things such as tap to select, hold and drag to move items, swipe to scroll, and pinch to zoom.)

A Compact Powerhouse for Creators
The Canon EOS R8 is a versatile and highly capable camera that punches well above its weight. It’s perfect for photographers and videographers who value image quality, advanced features, and portability. Whether you’re upgrading from an older DSLR or looking to dive into full-frame mirrorless photography, the R8 delivers exceptional value. Despite its small size, the grip is comfortable and well-designed, making it easy to handle even large RF lenses. Its compact body fits snugly into small bags, which is convenient for traveling and packing light. This camera lacks in-body image stabilization, but its lightweight design and lens-based stabilization compensate for this. The single SD card slot may be a downside for some, but it’s a reasonable trade-off for the price. Highly recommended for creators of all levels!

Great entry level full frame
I have been shooting for about 7 years now, originally with my T6 and now the R8 and i absolutely love this camera. The image quality is spectacular, I can crop in a fair bit on my photos and still have a useable image. It’s not a huge or heavy camera either which I really do appreciate The viewfinder is great, and the battery life is pretty good if you know how to get the most out of it
