About this product
Geared toward aspiring photographers and enthusiasts, the EOS R8 Mark II stands out as the lightest camera in the EOS lineup to feature In-Body Image Stabilization¹ (IBIS), providing up to 7.5 stops² of coordinated shake correction at the center so you can shoot sharp, steady images even while on the go. It features a 24.2-megapixel full-frame CMOS image sensor that delivers rich tones, natural bokeh, and high-ISO performance with low digital noise. Its premium, modern flat-surface design breaks from past curved models, offering ergonomic comfort in a travel-ready body. Beyond stunning stills, the EOS R8 Mark II provides everything a hybrid photographer would need, offering breathtaking 6K-oversampled UHD 4K video at 60p and Full HD video at up to 180p. You can effortlessly capture fast-moving action with advanced Dual Pixel CMOS AF II, which features automatic detection for people, animals, and vehicles³, alongside a highly precise Register People Priority function. To ensure you never miss a fleeting moment, the camera boasts a blazing-fast electronic shutter capable of up to 40 frames per second, complete with a pre-continuous shooting feature that captures up to 20 shots a half-second before you even fully press the shutter.
Product Set
Body Only24.2 Megapixel Image Sensor
A full-frame sensor delivers fine detail, rich tones, and pronounced natural bokeh.
Full-frame bokeh

Maximize your lens' potential
Take full advantage of the expansive perspective of wide and ultra-wide angle lenses with the extensive RF Lens line-up.
Stabilized - LARGE CGI ANIMATION
Feel the power of 5-axis image stabilization built into Canon’s lightest full-frame camera yet. Whether you're using slow shutter speeds, a non-stabilized lens, or shooting smooth video on the move, this advanced system helps expand your creative possibilities. The camera’s IBIS works with stabilized lenses for optimized, coordinated shake correction from wide-angle views to telephoto focal lengths, delivering steadier results in any scenario.
100% area coverage
Capture every moment with confidence. The Dual Pixel CMOS AF II system provides 100% frame coverage, tracking moving subjects anywhere in the shot for crisp, razor-sharp focus.
Register People Priority
A standout feature is the Register People Priority autofocus function, allowing you to lock onto specifically registered and prioritized individuals over other subjects in the scene.⁴
People Detection
The People detection feature can prioritize the subject's upper torso, head, face, left or right eye, or automatically select the eye closest to the camera.
Animals
The Animal detection feature is specifically designed to recognize dogs, cats, birds, and horses, automatically prioritizing focus on their eyes, face, or entire body.
Vehicles
The Vehicle detection feature is specifically built to recognize motorsports cars, motorcycles, aircraft, and trains, with a spot detection option that can focus on driver/rider helmets or vehicle cockpits.
Multi-controller Joystick
Operational control is significantly enhanced by the inclusion of the Multi-controller joystick, allowing you to ergonomically navigate around the screen.
Ready for the Unpredictable - Content split
When action strikes, the electronic shutter mode provides continuous shooting at up to 40 frames per second ⁵ and includes a powerful pre-continuous shooting function that allows you to capture up to 20 images before the shutter button is fully depressed.
Improved Burst Rates
When shooting at 40-frames per second, there is a 58% increase in uninterrupted, JPEG shots over the original EOS R8 camera, and a 30% increase when shooting RAW images, as well.
Color Filters
16 color filters allow you to apply creative visual styling to your photos and videos according to your scene preference, such as applying the Story Teal & Orange filter, which biases the overall image towards teal shadows and orange highlights which works well on high-contrast daytime scenes.
Positive Filmtone
Applies a deep color tone to recreate the brilliant, high-contrast finish of classic positive slide film.
Negative Filmtone
Designed to digitally recreate the nostalgic, evocative aesthetic of classic analog film directly in-camera.
Advanced A+
Automatically recognizes the shooting scene and performs intelligent bracketing and advanced image processing for an optimal image.
Creative Bracketing
Multiple images are captured per shot besides the normal image, each with characteristics such as brightness and color tone automatically changed.
14 SCN Modes
The SCN (Special Scene) position on the camera's mode dial provides automated presets tailored for specific environments, such as smoothing skin for flattering portraits, or Handheld Night Scene which helps capture stable night shots without a tripod while also giving you the option to tint your image in-camera.
See it All
You may prefer the focused experience of the viewfinder, and other times you may find the compositional freedom of the vari-angle LCD more appealing to easily capture subjects at various angles. With the EOS R8 Mark II camera you have both for maximum versatility for creativity.
Full-width 4K 60p/Full HD 180p
Videographers can capture uncropped high-resolution footage in UHD 4K at up to 60p, or shoot Full HD video at up to 180p.
Get Close
For video product showcases, livestreams and reviews, there is a dedicated autofocus setting for creative zone shooting, and an automatic exposure SCN movie mode tailored specifically for close-up demonstrations.⁸
Slow & Fast Mode
Easily capture slow-motion details or fast motion timelapses in-camera with control over the playback speed, for a truly mobile workflow without needing complex post-production.
Make the Grade
Advanced color grading is possible thanks to the Custom Picture mode, which provides Canon Log 3 with up to 14 stops of dynamic range, HDR video options like PQ and HLG, and two different 709 options including Canon 709 and BT.709 Standard.
EVF
The electronic viewfinder provides a more traditional experience in a modern way with an OLED screen, approximately 2.36 million dots of resolution, 100% frame coverage, and 0.70x magnification.
