Canon has been getting it right for decades. But for the past 10 years or so, Canon's enthusiast SLRs have taken a bashing from professional reviewers. This mirrorless model followed in their footsteps among reviewers, but like all Canon's other cameras, it has proven itself with actual owners and users. It's a bestseller for good reason. In hand, it feels great. Controls are well placed and easily accessed on the fly. Size and weight are perfect for travel, and the articulated LCD screen is indispensable. Touch screen is sensitive and fully implemented. Oh, did I mention image quality? Color science is just the best, and contrast is well modulated. With a good lens this camera punches out excellent images. At its lowest ISOs the dynamic range is a little behind the competition, but by 1600 it's right up there with the big guns. Low light shooting is delightful, and noise isn't a real issue til you exceed ISO 6400. Video is a little compromised compared to the competition, for my needs it's perfectly fine. Really, the only thing I wish Canon had done better is frame rate. For tracking subjects in continuous autofocus mode, burst shooting really isn't burst at all. It's pretty slow. Still, I'm able to get great shots of my dogs at play, and almost every image is in tack-sharp focus, whereas with many other cameras, burst rates are fabulous, but there aren't as many keepers. I think it averages out pretty well. Canon's dual autofocus is class-leading. Menus are sensible, easy to understand, and well organized. Ergonomically, it's a pleasure to operate. All these combined make the EOS RP just plain fun to use. I couldn't recommend it more highly.Read full review

It could have been built with a better body material and a bit bigger size to balance the weight of the lens. I like the fact that is full-frame and easy to use and travel with.

I've been using Canon products for years sans any failures for mainly personal use but have also used them for paid work. This is the first Canon fullframe mirrorless that I've owned and it quickly had shutter failure after a few days of minimal use. Had to return it, and I just can't recommend it and I just can't bring myself to buy another one because I'd be worried it would be unreliable. In every other way it is great in image quality and functionality for a "low cost" fullframe mirrorless. However, given that this and the R are Canon's first generation of fullframe mirrorless, you might want to wait for Canon's second or third generation as things will hopefully be better (whereas Sony's third generation are great as I owned the a7iii for half a year).

Probably the best priced full frame camera in the market now. This brings the the amazing potential of full frame cameras into the hands of the enthusiast and yet produces professional quality images. Very convenient features in the external buttons as well the touch screen!

It is great for video and ok for stills, love the canon colors and the tilt screen, EF lenses work as native.
