Customer Ratings & Reviews

Upgraded from a canon rebel t3. Absolutely love this camera! The quality is so much better! I paired it with a 35 mm 2.8 lens and love the results I’m getting! Was debating this vs the 6d mark 2 I think it was and seemed like most said they were comparable and I was looking to upgrade to a nicer more professional camera. I take mostly indoor portrait mini sessions

Love the autofocus, and it can shoot insanely fast. also the video looks amazing.

I previously owned the EOS M50mkii, but saw the launch of the R8 and was intrigued. After some reviews started filtering out, I decided to buy it. I also added the 24mm and 50mm STM lenses, to introduce myself to the RF universe. I now realize how expensive this universe is :’) The image quality is superb and that also speaks on the video quality as well! With 4k 60p at 10-bit color, without a crop, this camera is a bargain! I’ve owned it for about a month and have faced zero issues!

This camera is awesome. It is vastly better than my previous one and my cell camera.

Excellent. Quality is good. Would recommend this to orhers

Great Quality from Cannon, this is a great versatile camera for the price. There is no comparison.

I bought this as an both a backup and on the go camera to avoid both taking my more expensive R6 into certain situations. and when I'm taking quick trips. Pros: It's has the most of the what makes the R6 Mark 2 great except IBS. Cons: The battery aren't that good but you can improve it by turning on Airplane Mode when not transferring photos, You can also keep the battery charged if to contact it to a power bank via USB-C Other than those it's a great on the go camera, make sure to buy at least 2 extra batteries for this one

The Cannon R8 is a great camera for capturing Photos and Video, I’m a freelance photographer and having this camera was like a Cheat code! If you’re looking for a great camera for Videography and photography this is the perfect camera for it!

Very easy to use and learn. Light weight and compact

I used this body with my DSLR lenses from my old Canon camera (with the adapter) and it worked well. The camera takes crisp shots - especially good for portait photography. The resolution really makes the camera shine - when I look at my landscape shots, I can see the detail in trees etc even from far away. Feathers, eyes, etc. from close-ups also render quite well.

If u are starting in the world of photography this camera is for. It has a really good material the focus is really impressive I love you can record on 120fps

Great quality first camera battery life average at best.

Upgraded and the R8 was a vast improvement over the last camera.

Perfect camera for travel .. lightweight .. great shots

Great little camera packed with features and priced nicely! Picture quality is way better than R7 IMO. I would recommend this camera to friends and family without hesitation!!

Battery life is as low as advertised but the camera itself is amazing. It did overheat but it wasn’t a deal breaker.

This kind of replaces the Canon R but it’s one step down. I thought it would be similar but it is slightly less worth it than the R. The battery is tiny. And also I have never seen a heat monitor on an lcd of dslrs. I was taking pictures outdoors here in Texas and I had just started taking pictures and the temp icon comes on, I was surprised this even existed. I was nervous this would have over heated and timed out on me. If you can step further up from this camera, DO IT.

Awesome camera with great features and at fraction of the price of the higher price canon cameras. The only con would be the missing in body stablization, but i knew that bwforw buying the camera so not really a con foe the price.

I had a DSLR camera but wanted something smaller that I can travel with and would be a great everyday camera. This camera is lightweight and easy to travel with. I glad I pulled the trigger and made the purchase

The best full frame on the market for the price. Only adding a second SD slot would make it a perfect camera, I could nitpick, EVF a bit small and no full mechanical shutter but those are things that won’t affect much the user experience
