MAKE THE LEAP TO FULL FRAME
Give your creativity a full-frame upgrade. Better bokeh, wider angles of view and image quality that will blow you away – even in low light.

Full-frame video too
The full-frame advantage also extends to video for spectacular cinematic results.

Intelligent autofocus
Stills or video: keep subjects in sharp focus as they move around the frame.

The full-frame advantage
Enjoy wider dynamic range, reduced digital noise and crystal-clear detail – that’s the EOS R8’s full-frame advantage.

Shoot shallower
Perfect for powerful portraits. With a larger sensor comes shallower depth of field and more dynamic range. Make your subject stand out against a smooth, out-of-focus background with beautiful bokeh. Capture more details in highlights and shadows.

Shoot wider
Transform the way you see the landscape, and get up close for immersive documentary images.

FIND YOUR INNER FILMMAKER
By oversampling 6K sensor data, the EOS R8 produces high-quality 4K video footage at frame rates up to 60p. If you’re new to video, you’ll love how simple the camera makes it to get creative with different frame rates and resolutions. You’ll appreciate its advanced features as you become an accomplished filmmaker.

Professional colour grading
Use the EOS R8’s low-contrast Canon Log 3 colour profile for more options while colour grading. This footage preserves detail in bright highlights and dark shadows, thanks to its wide, dynamic range.

The nuances of slow motion
Add feeling and emotion to movement, shooting at up to 180p in Full HD. When viewed at normal playback speeds, this shows subjects in sumptuous slow motion – revealing hidden details of their movement.

Professional video functions
  • False colour indicator. Gauge the perfect exposure. Six coloured overlays show the distribution of luminance in a scene.
  • Focus peaking. Master critical sharpness when focusing manually. In-focus areas are outlined with a distinctive (and customisable) colour.
  • Zebras. Striped overlays make it quick and simple to judge the correct exposure.
  • Digital zoom. Change your view, even when shooting video with prime lenses, with up to 10x digital zoom.

BIG ON FEATURES SMALL IN SIZE
The EOS R8 is our lightest full-frame, mirrorless camera yet, weighing in at just 461g. Enjoy the full-frame advantage everywhere you shoot, from decisive moments on the streets to remote landscapes and adventures.

GAME-CHANGING AUTOFOCUS
Inside the EOS R8 is our renowned Dual Pixel CMOS AF II focusing system. It recognises and tracks different subjects and is accurate even in very low light – down to -6.5EV.

Intelligent AF that knows what you’re shooting
The EOS R8 has been programmed using a state-of-the-art machine-learning algorithm that lets it track moving subjects as they move about the frame.

Finds and tracks a multitude of subjects
  • People. Finds eyes, faces, heads and bodies.
  • Cats. Wild and tame, big and small.
  • Dogs. From dachshunds to dingos.
  • Horses. Including zebras.
  • Birds. Even those in flight.
  • Cars. Tracks drivers in open-top cars.
  • Motorbikes. On racetrack or road.
  • Trains. Steam, electric and diesel.
  • Aircraft. Aeroplanes and helicopters.

Amazing AF for both stills and video
No matter how you’re shooting, the EOS R8 tracks and follows moving subjects right to the edges of the frame. Even if the main subject is obscured for a moment, the camera anticipates its movement and reacquires focus as soon as it reappears.

LINKED TO YOUR WORKFLOW
When you’ve finished shooting, the EOS R8 gives you a plethora of ways to get started with your digital workflow.

EASY CONNECTIVITY
