    This camera takes stunning images, is very compact and lightweight. I like that I don't have to sacrifice quality on such a small camera and don't mind brining it with me lots of places because it's fairly inconspicuous.

    Great camera all around. Compact, but sturdy since it’s made in Japan. It’s got the sensor of the R6 Mk II, so images focus quickly and look great.

    What I needed

    The Canon EOS R8 is the camera that I needed to replace my heavier EOS 5D MkIII. I’ve loved my 5D MkIII but I am requiring equipment that is much lighter. I cannot lug my camera and heavier L lenses around like I did in my younger days. I’ve used the R8 just a short while, but I have to admit that it is exactly what I was looking for. I’m not a professional photographer, so this camera is more than enough to meet my needs. I typically take photos on vacation and this camera offers me more than enough technology for my needs.

    No phone camera can compete with a mirrorless camera. Highly encourage anyone serious about photography to invest in a good camera like this one

    upgraded from a RP and instantly saw the difference. UI is faster, pictures are sharper, shutter is faster, focus is faster.

    This is a great camera it is basically a scaled down version of the r6 mark ii. It has the same sensor and auto focus of the more expensive camera it’s just missing some of the pro features such and dual memory and larger body and battery. I believe for how much cheaper the r8 it is it’s a great value. It’s a lot of camera for the dollar and I would recommend for anyone who wants top notch photo and video without having to spend 2 plus grand overall highly recommend.

    Only dislike is the battery life isn’t very long but there are options if you do research, but that wouldnt keep me from buying it. Quality is amazing very capable camera. For the price i would choose it over any other camera in this price range.

    Great camera that is much cheaper versus the R6 MKII, It has everything but two main elements. IBIS and bigger battery life. I went with this body to save some money and invest into good IS lens. Carry extra batteries you will need it! The CANON EOS RP shares the same body do you can put the grip on there to get extra grip! Perfect Body for me!

    Great camera at a good price . I do wish it had a dual SD card compartment and longer battery life. But the smaller batteries do make it lighter. I just purchased two extra.
