Canon’s new EOS R3 Mirrorless Camera has been designed for life in the fast lane, with its incredible speed, high sensitivity and responsiveness making it unique from other cameras on the market. A professional-grade camera that marks a new era of sports and wildlife photography, the EOS R3 is perfect for when speed matters, whether that’s on the field, in the forest or even when shooting events and news photography.
Powerful Processing
The EOS R3 is powered by a new 24.1MP back-illuminated stacked CMOS sensor with a DIGIC X image processor. Enjoy high-speed processing that enables you to reach maximum shooting speeds for great image production.
Incredible Images
Be captivated by the possibilities as the EOS R3 can shoot RAW file images at up to 30fps with Full AF/AE (Auto Focus/ Auto Exposure) tracking. Observe and easily track your subjects with the camera’s 5.76MP electronic viewfinder (EVF), and the 3.2” vari-angle LCD makes it effortless to shoot at various angles.
Object Tracking
Boasting sensational subject tracking, the EOS R3 performs well so you can keep a clear eye on your subjects. The EOS R3 features subject tracking for people, animals (dogs, cats and birds) and now with the new autofocus (AF) for motorsports, the camera easily follows motorsport cars and motorcycles.
Auto Focus
Focus on your subjects with cutting-edge precision with the subject tracking, like those mentioned above. The auto focus available for still images can also be applied in videos so that motion can be documented with clarity. The camera’s unique Eye Control AF technology lets you quickly change the subject you’re focussing on – this is perfect for responding to fast-changing scenes.
The EOS R3 camera controls will be loved by professionals as it provides intuitive focus control. For example, the ‘AF on’ button enables fast and intuitive autofocus while the AF Joystick helps deliver quick selection and changes to the AF frame.
Quality Images in any Light
The high ISO range of 100-102,400 makes it simple to shoot bright pictures in any light. With 8-stops of protection against camera shake, the Canon EOS R3 reduces camera shake for clear and detailed images.
Stunning Video
Capture wildlife, athletes, motorsports and everyday scenes just like they appear with the high-performing video recording. Generally speaking, this camera has incredible video performance with various video recording options:
- RAW file in 6K at 60p/30p/24p
- 4K Ultra at 120p
- Full HD at 120p
The EOS R3 can record oversampled 4K video, meaning it can record using higher sensor (e.g. 6K) and then scale it back down to 4K quality for beautiful scenes of movement.
Greater Control
The Canon EOS R3 features a vertical grip that can be harnessed to shoot portraits and other scenes in a vertical fashion. Shoot for longer with the high-capacity LP-E19 battery, which is the same as the one in the Canon EOS-1D X Mark III DSLR, making sharing batteries between the two, simple. The EOS R3 also has dual card slots for recording on SD or CFexpress memory cards. For greater flexibility, the EOS R3 has an accessory shoe to fit a range of accessories when required, such as a microphone or speedlite transmitter.
Outdoor Friendly
Confidently shoot fast paced subjects and record smooth videos in any type of weather setting with the EOS R3’s dust and weather resistant body, which is characterised by a tough seal. So even when the motorbike creates a dust storm on the field or the wind is picking up and a drizzle of rain falls, you can continue shooting to capture all the action.
