MAKE THE LEAP TO FULL FRAMEGive 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 tooThe full-frame advantage also extends to video for spectacular cinematic results.
Intelligent autofocusStills or video: keep subjects in sharp focus as they move around the frame.
The full-frame advantageEnjoy wider dynamic range, reduced digital noise and crystal-clear detail – that’s the EOS R8’s full-frame advantage.
Shoot shallowerPerfect 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 widerTransform the way you see the landscape, and get up close for immersive documentary images.
FIND YOUR INNER FILMMAKERBy 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 gradingUse 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 motionAdd 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.
