So like many others, I enjoy photography and being creative while capturing special moments with my wife and kids or when I see something that catches my eye and maybe it will capture others eyes as well. I think I am pretty good at picking a subject and shooting it well with this canon r10.
They used to call me the photographer of the family. And I appreciate the fact that they appreciated my work, amateur or not.
I used to shoot with my canon m6 mark ii. That camera has served me well and it was time to upgrade. I’m glad I did as the r10 is in my opinion substantially better minus the megapixel count. The r10 excels in well lit shooting environments. If you have either good natural light or good room lighting then Your pictures will come out beautifully. The sharpness is beautiful in my opinion for a non full size/frame sensor. Background blur is great as well with the stock lens. Good ole reliable canon processing. Now if lighting isn’t great you may see visible noise and minor blurring unfortunately. But that is typical of the kit lenses. And it’s understandable as usually the price point is fair and reasonable enough. Personally I don’t shoot at night so this isn’t necessarily an issue for me. But it may be for you if you want a stock all in one camera/Lens kit. I myself plan on purchasing the good ole nifty fifty 50mm f1.8 lens For better lower light situations and better background blur. Plus I want to make more videos with my family and maybe start a YouTube channel. As far as video goes, this camera will suit just about anyone needs for everyday videos or semi pro videos for content creators as well. Videos we took came out clear and smooth with no stutter or video noise both at 1080p @60 or even 4K @60(cropped). Only issue with video is the built in camera mics. While they work ok. The sound isn’t great but that’s understandable as most people will use an external mic like I did(see pics). Easy fix, so now my videos look great and sound great. I did not experience any over heating while shooting 4K and the battery lasted longer than expected. Tho I plan on buying an extra to be safe.
As far as build is concerned, it’s the same solid, study and light weight construction that you expect from canon and it’s mirror less line of cameras. Fits like a glove and isn’t cumbersome in the slightest. Almost every fine tune setting and options for pros and simple to use buttons and options for those just starting off. I’m in the middle I would say and I still have some to learn.
Adjustable screen is great for selfies or shooting video as you can have it face you to see is you are centered or not. Great feature! Touchscreen works as it should and is easy to navigate menus and such.
The EVF is built in which I appreciate. My m6 mark ii was not. The evf is clear, bright and sharp if you want to see how your photos came out up close.
Camera has a built in flash and it works well but unfortunately if you have a mic connected you can not use it. Again not a huge deal for videos but it might bother some.
With all that I just said, the simple advice I can give is that this camera is great. No real downfalls. So much upside for a novice photographer, a mother or father who wants you capture and cherish their children’s younger years or someone who wants to make a career out of photography and is just starting off and doesn’t have enough money to go straight to canons high end DSLR. This is really a great starting point. especially after you invest and try out new lenses. You can not go wrong with this model. I whole heartedly recommend this model for sure.

This Canon EOS R10 will satisfy most of the people. Either you'll be using it as a backup camera for events or your main one to learn photography this one is great.
I have been using Nikon full frame for years and i put them side to side and to be honest in daytime i like the color reproduction and sharpness better on the R10. And that was compared from both with a standard lens that they came with. That says a lot about the R10 considering the price difference.
The lens that comes with (RFS 18-45 f 4.5-6.3) is decent all around lens to mess with. But you might want to get some zoom lenses or a faster ones maybe after you master the functions of the camera and get more familiar with the Camera Body which is amazing by the way.
Much lighter and smaller with stelar capabilities. I love the articulated display that is very bright and the touch screen works flawlessly. I can't get over the auto-focus of this camera either it's super fast and accurate.
With a little practice you will get familiar with all the commands on this camera and i'm sure you will love it like i do.
The only difference in picture quality i found between this Aps-c and my fullframe was at night timw. The later one having a larger sensor will perform better/cleaner but keeping in mind the price difference and the fact that in daylight the look the same makes this Canon Eos R10 one of my favorite cameras.

This is the best, high quality camera for me! Its features and functions better than I expected. Very handy, easy to navigate, and perfect for beginners! I had a DSLR before but it’s very complicated to use and heavy/big for me. This R10 shot is very fashionable, easy controls, lightweight design that can capture clear photo. Very user-friendly designed for beginners that can take stunning shots easily. This is the greatest camera of all time!

I really like the EOS R10. It’s a great upgrade from my EOS M6 Mk II and it takes great photos and videos without a lot of work and it offers most of the advanced features I’d want to take things to the next level. The included kit lens is just okay and I’m hoping Canon comes out with some good affordable options soon, but overall if you’re looking for a good camera option that’s a step above smartphone photography this is one to look at for sure.
In the box you get the R10 body, a battery, charger, a strap, and an 18-45mm kit lens. My first impression handling the R10 was it was a lot lighter than I expected it to be. I really like the grip on it a lot and I never feel like I’m in any danger of dropping the camera when I’m handling it. The body is mostly plastic, but feels pretty solid, as do all the dials and buttons. The kit lens is also mostly plastic. The battery is an LP-E17, which is one Canon has had around for a while and doesn’t have the largest capacity, but it’s the same type my M6 Mk II used, so I have the benefit of already owning some extras which is nice.
The R10 uses a 24MP APS-C image sensor and does not have in-body image stabilization, though the included kit lens does include that. It technically uses a new RF-S lens mount, but is compatible with all of the RF lenses used on the R10’s more expensive siblings, though these lenses themselves are pretty spendy. At this point the only RF-S lenses available are the 18-45mm included with this package and the long 18-150mm kit lens available in a different package. I’m really hoping Canon expands on the RF-S line, especially coming from the M-mount lenses that were themselves pretty neglected by Canon.
The controls on the camera are pretty easy to use. There are 2 primary dials for adjusting functions in various modes and an array of buttons that in general I have no problems reaching. The camera has a touchscreen that flips out and a built-in electronic viewfinder. There’s also a pop-up flash. Along the side you’ll find ports for an external microphone, remote input, HDMI, and a USB-C port for data transfer and charging.
Getting into using the camera is super simple and there’s a lot of modes and options that I haven’t even begun to scratch the surface of yet. I consistently got great great results in photos with the auto mode and one thing I especially noticed coming from my M6 Mk II was how great the autofocus is in the R10. Once you’ve focused on your subject it stays locked in, even with fast moving subjects like my dogs. Photos look really great and sharp, even at higher ISO levels. I do wish Canon had included a better kit lens as the one that comes with this one here has a minimum F-stop of 4.5, which isn’t great even for a kit lens. Still, except in very low light I was in general pretty happy with its performance, but I’m hoping Canon comes out with some RF-S prime lenses pretty soon. Video quality is also excellent and you can do up to 4K 60FPS on the R10, though above 30FPS it does crop in on the sensor. The onboard microphone actually isn’t bad either. Battery life in my time with the camera was okay, but I’d definitely recommend having an extra battery or two if you’re going out for the day. The Canon camera app lets you use your phone as a remote, record location data, and view and pull photos from the camera. The app is okay, but it hasn’t changed a whole lot over the years and I wish it was a bit more seamless to use.
Overall I’m really happy with the R10. It feels like all the camera I could ever want as a casual photographer and I hope Canon continues to grow this line of products.

Back in 2008 I bought my first "professional" camera while I happened to be in Japan - felt right to buy it when I was near the actual headquarters. I loved it, it took amazing pictures if the conditions were right, but when I would look the viewfinder, the picture would look perfect, and when I reviewed it later, it was not. This has always been a very frustrating normal thing I had to deal with when using that kind of a camera. However, the only way to get the most out of the camera was to take a photography class, which was very useful, but there is so much information and as time goes on, I have forgotten it all.
Now in 2022, the Canon EOS R10 is not only a much better camera, but mirrorless with amazing autofocus quality. I used my friend's daughter and dog to try out the Fully Automatic Shooting (Scene Intelligent Auto) mode. As you can see in the included pictures, the camera was able to focus on both human and very annoyed animal who would not stop moving. These kind of shots aren't available on my previous camera - in fact I would have to take at least 30 continuous shots to be able to pick out a few that looked great. Here I only took 4 shots, and each one is perfect.
Since this is a mirrorless camera, the viewfinder is digital (OLED screen), so you can see exactly what the shot is going to look like immediately. You can even use the little thumbstick, called the Multi-Controller button (an 8 directional stick) to set an area you always want in focus. This, in comparison to my other camera, is mind-blowing that it can detect multiple faces/animals and will show me it to me correct, in real time. The digital viewfinder was easy for me to see without my glasses, so that was is another plus, as I that is no longer the case w/mirrored viewfinder.
The camera's almost 3 inch LCD screen is touch screen, you can skip the Multi-Controller and just touch what you want the camera to focus on. You can also tilt the screen, in addition to pulling it out and reversing it so you could see the screen while facing the lens.
Video recording is also pretty good - like Scene Intelligent Auto mode, Auto exposure Movie Recording, is able to autofocus on fast moving subjects, including animals.
Basically, the Canon EOS R10 is a great camera to start getting into photography - that was the original intention of my first DSLR, but it was just too complicated to use - this camera will basically do it all for you! Sure, you can set it on manual and use it like a regular camera, but after using the fully auto mode - why would you??

The Canon EOS R10 camera is great for beginner photographers, videographers, and vloggers looking to get something with more professional looking shots at a decent price. The included RF-S 18-45 lens is crisp and clear with only a little softening on the far outer corners of images. The sensor is very versatile and clear. I test it out shooting stills, video, and vlogging (still video, but no tripod makes it trickier)m the image was crystal clear, very nice coloring, and good image stabilization (in the lens, not the camera body) while walking and recording/shooting. The camera and lens are also quite durable, as I found out on my first outing with it getting tripped by my dog which sent the entire camera flying off my neck and onto the concrete floor a few feet in front of us! Neither the camera or lens suffered as much as a scratch! I would definitely not recommend trying this, but it was nice to avoid a disaster the first day of use, probably helped that the screen was flipped inward and the lens was in "travel-mode." The body fits well in the hand and is very well balanced for freehand shooting. The battery and door are definitely an area Canon cut costs, BUT the battery is extremely common and affordable (I found one with a charger in an emergency at a Walgreens!), as for the battery door, it stays out of the way of most tripod mounts and allows for easy battery/card swaps on the fly. I'd recommend this for budding YouTubers, streamers, beginner photographers who want a wide range of lenses (RF natively, and EF/EF-S with an adapter), and the all-rounders who want something that'll work great for everything previously mentioned, but can also come along on a family vacation and take excellent candid shots! The kit with the longer 18-150mm lens has a little more utility for photographers as a bundle, but either kit will get you a very versatile system!

*****Review*****
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Canon EOS R10 is great for beginners but at a mid-level price point. When comparing all the mirrorless cameras, I would say it’ll boil down to preference and budget.
This camera is lightweight and has a relatively compact design making this camera ideal for traveling or if you’re “on-the-go.” Photos come out stunning and the 4K video is amazing, making this camera immensely versatile. This camera has an amazing autofocus system and is speedy. The flip-out screen makes taking selfies and video recording easy.
This camera has a very comfortable feel in the hands - where you grip is wrapped in leatherette and has a nice curve that fits snugly. I do want to note that the body also feels very plastic-y, making it feel more fragile than some of its rivals.
Getting to the “cons:” I personally think the lens it comes with is solid for everyday, quick and easy photos but if you’re someone to up your game or going for a certain style, you’ll need to purchase lens kits. This camera also does not have image stabilization built in so “vlogging” may result in jumpy/wobbly/unstable video footage. While it has a built-in flash, I would argue that it’s not very helpful and underperforms in low-light.
Overall, I think this camera is a solid mirrorless camera. If it’s right for you will depend on your preference and budget.

A few years back, I was all in the Canon ecosystem, I had the Canon 6D DSLR and a few nice lenses that I loved! I traded all that in because it was too much gear to pack and carry for vacations. I found the mirrorless cameras that were coming out to be very nice and compact. Fast forward a few years later, while I still like Sony the mirrorless I have, I have to say, due to its small size, it’s not the most comfortable grip. When the opportunity to test the Canon R10 mirrorless presented itself, I happily obliged.
While it’s not as compact as other mirrorless cameras on the market, the R10 is a nice compromise of size and comfortable grip. With the strap anchor points, I can easily put a comfortable hand strap on this camera, something I had struggled with on my current mirrorless. The camera is fairly lightweight; the body is made from plastic with sections of rubber texture where your hands would be. At 3”, the screen is easy to see while you’re taking photos or using the touch screen to select menu items. Speaking of menus, I found the settings easy to use, this has not changed much from other Canon’s I’ve had. If I go to “Scene” mode, the icons displayed to select the scene you want are very intuitive. The description of each scene along with a sample photo of the scene makes this a great camera for beginners.
With the kit lens that’s included, I thought the photos I got were very good. Mostly sharp and colors seem fairly accurate. With the lowest aperture setting of 4.5, I wasn’t able to get any shots with the pleasing bokeh in the background. I generally don’t expect too much from the included lens. This lens is great for someone starting out. The R10 is backwards compatible with EF and EF-S (with optional EF-EOS R adapter) lenses, so there are plenty of great lenses to choose from.
When taking photos, the camera tries to guess what you want to focus on, it recognizes faces. If it’s not what you want to focus on, simply tap on the screen of what you want to focus on. For me, the best part is that it can auto focus when in video mode! I remember my previous Canon’s did not have this feature, which made taking videos difficult and mostly useless for me. To take videos, you simply press on the red button on top. No need to switch to “video” mode. Though you still can switch to video more for more video options. I tested the camera on a few occasions, one by the shore, where we came across a Praying Mantis. I also tested out the sport mode when my son decided to practice his skateboarding tricks. The photos came out very good, I think with a nice low aperture prime, you have an even better camera!
I would highly recommend this camera to anyone that is looking for a mirrorless camera. The R10 has many great features that makes it a versatile camera for the beginner or intermediate photographer. Want to blog, grab a tripod and flip out the 3” screen, plug in an external mic if needed! Going on vacation, this is the camera for you, not too large and it takes great photos and videos! With the Canon, you also have access to so many great lens usually at decent prices.

Great image quality. Love the touch screen and ability to press record like a phone. It’s small, lightweight yet super powerful. Colors are way more vibrant than the Sony’s. Shutter sounds a bit “clacky” but oh well. The images it produces are super. Battery life is pretty decent for a small battery. It can charge the battery in body with a usb c cable. Very handy.

Bought the R10 with the 18-150 kit lense for a trip to Europe. I was able to get up to speed rather quick thanks to YouTube. The camera performed well in low light and on the go around town.

Great lens for the Canon R10. Bought this for an upcoming trip to Alaska. Seems to take great pictures so far just trying it around my area. Bought since it gave me a wide range of options without having to take 2 to 3 lenses. Like that it was weathered sealed without spending all the money of a canon L lens.

The Canon R10 is the perfect camera for beginners in the world of photography. It has all the necessary features and is very easy to operate. The service at the Guy's Norwalk Store is excellent and explain the product details very well
