Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great starter camera. Auto focus does the job really well. Picture taken with high shutter speed.

To get basic knowledge on cameras or if you are entering the world of mirrorless cameras this is the way to go. This camera has been fun to shoot on and I have had no hiccups with performance.

Just amazing a great camera and great experience and good time

The Canon EOS R10 is a truly impressive and outstanding camera. It is a solid mid-range camera that performs beautifully! With stellar features and functionality, and excellent specifications, this mirrorless, interchangeable lens camera is terrific. The EOS R10 may fall towards the entry level of Canon cameras, however, it is not an entry level camera by any standard. It is a robust and flexible camera with excellent hardware and a comprehensive and powerful feature set. Canon recently released the new APS-C Sensor (1.6x crop factor) EOS R10 and R7 models. There are some notable differences between them. The most significant is that the R7 has In Body Image Stabilization (IBIS), while the R10 does not, and relies on Lens Image Stabilization which can also work with electronic image stabilization in Movie mode. The R7 has a 32.5 MP sensor, and the R10 is 24.2 MP. The R7 is -5EV and the R10 is -4EV. The R7 has a higher capacity battery, 7k oversampling 4k video instead of 6k, and two SD card slots instead of one. The R7 also costs substantially more! Decades ago, I shot both 2 ¼ square and 35mm formats. I bulk loaded film and developed and printed in my darkroom. I also sold every type of photography product in large camera stores. My appreciation of good photography gear and of good photography continues. A significant change, however, has been that in the film days a “big shooting day” might have been about 216 images. Thanks to digital photography I sometimes shoot about 1000 - 1500 stills and videos, something that would have been incomprehensible and inconceivable with film. Digital photography and automation allow anyone to shoot excellent images. In the hands of creative people, these cameras afford great capabilities to capture shots that would likely never have been captured with manually operated film cameras. Mirrorless, interchangeable lens digital cameras are an excellent choice for many users, and the Canon 10 is just such a camera. The R10s list of features, functions and specifications is extensive and far beyond inclusion in a brief review. If not for the space limitations of the site, I could expound on the powerful and flexible features and functionality of the R10 at great length. Suffice it to say, the Canon R10 is impressive in many important ways. The only notable disappointment with the R10 is the kit lens. Presently, Canon offers only two native RF-S lenses, designed specifically for the new R10 and R7. The R10 is sold with either the RF-S 18 – 45 mm, f/4.5, or the 18 – 150 mm, f/3.5 lens. The 18 – 45 mm has 7 elements in 7 groups. Wide-open at f/4.5 indoors, the R10 consistently prompts for flash. The 18 – 150 lens has 17 elements in 13 groups, and a superior light admittance of f/3.5. I have the 18 – 45 mm f/4.5. The slow f/4.5 lens impedes bokeh effect and imposes unnecessary digital noise in images. Subjectively, the images are decent, but I have better lenses. I believe that the faster and longer 18 – 150 mm f/3.5 is a better choice, and in all honesty, I wish that I had that lens. The RF-S lenses are manual zoom. The R10 is compatible with RF lenses, and with EF and EF-S lenses using an EF-EOS R Mount Adapter. The RF-S lens mount is plastic, rather than metal like the lens mount flange on the R10 body. It would be better if both mating surfaces were metal. The zoom ring requires a firm twist to extend the lens barrel from the parked position detent to the shooting position. Since the R10 body does not support power zoom lenses which extend and retract with power on/off, the R10 provides an on-screen notice if you fail to manually extend the lens barrel. The R10 sensor is a 24.2 megapixel, APS-C, Dual Pixel CMOS AF sensor measuring 22.3 x 14.9 mm. The R10 sensor has menu selectable self-cleaning. The R10 has powerful and outstanding Auto-Focus and Auto-Exposure functionality and offers comprehensive exposure control with more than a dozen exposure modes, six auto-focus modes and four metering modes. The Auto-Focus system is fantastic and represents the best Canon AF. With 651 auto-focus points and real-time AF and tracking for humans, animals and vehicles, it excels, and compares with the best AF functionality available. The R10 has Canon’s latest (2020) and most advanced DIGIC X image processor. Still formats range through compressed RAW (C-RAW - .CR3), and video resolution up to 4k UHD (60 fps) with crop. The R10 has an OLED electronic viewfinder which I believe is essential. The rubber eye cup is comfortable and provides for good eye relief even when wearing eyeglasses. The 4 diopter adjustment slide beneath the eye cup is difficult to access while using the viewfinder. The R10 has a fully articulating 3” TFT, LCD touchscreen. A viewfinder proximity sensor disables the touchscreen when the viewfinder is used. The touchscreen is clear and responsive; however the touch targets are small and can be missed resulting in the incorrect item inadvertently being selected. My recent experience is with another camera ecosystem. The Canon User Interface is of course different and requires a familiarization and adaptation period. The software has many settings and variables. There is an enormous range of options affording superior creative control or allowing the R10 to apply full-automation to the composition. With numerous icons and graphic display elements, the viewfinder or display screen can be congested. Canon provides comprehensive documentation and many useful resources on the support website. The included, printed Instruction Manual is brief, but the Advanced User Guide is a whopping 919 page PDF document. The R10 is compact in size and light in weight, making it easy and convenient to carry or pack. The “ready to shoot” weight inclusive of 18 – 45 mm lens, battery and SD card is 19.3 ounces (549 grams). The trade-off with a compact camera body, is that with the many control buttons and knobs, the buttons are small, and some controls are in close proximity. The R10 body size is about ideal for a compact, APS-C camera, and the right-hand grip is deep and easy to hold. The body is nicely textured and affords a secure grip on the camera. The R10 is supplied with one LP-E17 battery pack and 120VAC wall charger. Charging is slow and battery capacity is limited, especially when using the EVF. The required memory card is not included. I installed a 128 GB Sandisk Extreme SDXC UHS-I, V30, U3, C10 SD card, and the camera’s performance, including recording 4k UHD video has been fine. The R10 also supports UHS-II cards which should be even better for 4k UHD video and RAW Burst mode. Canon includes both a body cap and rear lens cap, as well as the front lens cap and a Canon strap. The R10 is equipped with 2.4Ghz Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n , and Bluetooth 4.0 LE. On the left side of the body there is a 3.5 mm stereo mini jack microphone input, but no headphone output jack (why?). Under the same dust cover is another mini-jack for the optional Canon RS-60E3 Remote Switch (shutter release). Under the adjacent dust cover is a USB-A port and a mini-HDMI jack. The dust covers are soft rubber, attached to the camera body with integral tethers. These types of covers often wear and become loose and fail to remain in place to protect the open jacks/ports. The rubber tethering strips also have the tendency to break. The Canon product support page offers several PC and smartphone applications, including Digital Photo Professional, Picture Style Editor, Camera Connect, Digital Photo Professional Express, EOS Webcam Utility, and EOS Utility. I have been using the EOS Utility on Windows 11 to transfer image and video files from the R10 to my laptop, and it works well. I genuinely enjoy using the R10. The feature set and exposure controls are extensive and robust, and creative photography is very well supported. The R10 can also be placed in virtual control of the photography with Scene Intelligent Auto mode, which produces excellent images with point-and-shoot ease. The R10 provides three levels of Continuous Shooting, with a maximum rate of 15 shots per second with the mechanical shutter or 23 shots per second with the electronic shutter. Coupled with the 1/4000s shutter speed, action and sports photography needs are well met. The ISO range is 100 - 32,000 and the expanded ISO range is 51,200. The R10 also has a flip-up flash and Multi-Function hot-shoe with added pins and the ability to power some attached devices with the camera’s battery. Again, exposure and AF control are incredible. The only deficiency that I encountered was rolling shutter, particularly during fast pans in 4k video, which is common with CMOS sensor cameras. The camera hardware seems to be good-quality. The lens mount flange is metal, and lens locking with the plastic lens is solid. The body is plastic and is not dust or weather sealed. The Canon R10 is an excellent camera. It is extremely capable and can produce excellent photographs. I am enjoying the R10 a great deal. The size, weight and outstanding features and technology of the R10 make it an excellent camera for many applications including travel. Of course, I recommend this impressive camera very highly!

Amazing! I love how fast it runs & my pictures turn out so crisp.

It is a great camera if you are starting to do sports photography

I absolutely LOVE this camera! It has changed photography for me so much!

Amazing quality!!! Definitely worth the buy. Comes with cover for lense.

This was one of the best investments ive ever made! Very easy to shoot with and the picture and video quality is on point!

The camera is great. I was slightly hesitant to settle down for R10 instead of the R7, but my budget got the better of me and I went for the R10 after watching several hours of reviews and comparing between Nikon and Sony cameras that come under 1k. I'm glad I went for the R10. It takes excellent pictures and I hope to add new RF lenses to my toolkit.

This is my first camera. I did my research before I bought it and I must say its a great camera so far! Ive gotten some great shots and of course I’m still learning more and more so I’m excited to see what else I can get from this.

I love this camera , very nice quality Not too heavy to carry

Great camera takes awesome pictures is very light weight

This is my second camera and my most expensive but it was great learning how to take the pictures I always wanted to take with the easy controls it has to offer. I’m still figuring out new things and a new lens kit to zoom in more would be the ideal next move and a tripod. I have a hard time keeping still taking videos. I also enjoy the selection of creative filters, the focusing, and the focus on moving objects just makes it more interesting then just your phone but if you wanna get into photography taking pictures of people or a maybe a vehicle this purchase is a must.

I like that this camera is lighter then my old canon. My pictures are clearier, however I don't know if this is due to the camera or my L lens because I purchased both at the same time. I am still learning all of the functions on this device.

Amazing camera for a beginner and more! I’m already experienced but I love this camera one of the best things I’ve ever bought. If I didn’t realize how serious I was getting I would have bought the R7 just for the type of stuff I shoot but you can do anything with this camera!

Super happy so far with the quality. The lens takes a little time to get used to, but I will eventually get some alternative ones. Extremely user friendly.

[Employee of bestbuy] Great camera if youre just starting out or if you just want something better than a smartphone

Best camera ever I'm start to take pictures and this is the good option for start I'm so glad

Started off knowing not a whole bunch about cameras but over time learned how to use the R10 and I havnt had a single issue so far!!!
