An Accessible Entry Point into Full-Frame Photography
The Canon EOS RP Body (Without Adapter) is a lightweight, budget-friendly full-frame mirrorless camera built for photographers who want to step into full-frame image quality without the bulk or cost typically associated with the format. As Canon's lightest and most compact full-frame EOS camera at launch, it delivers a genuinely portable full-frame experience in a comfortable, ergonomic body.
Designed for an Approachable Full-Frame Entry
This camera is made for shooters newer to full-frame imaging, or existing Canon users who want a second, travel-friendly body. Weighing less than a pound body-only, the RP is remarkably lightweight and compact for a camera with full-frame specifications, offering portable full-frame features suitable for all-day shoots. Please note this listing is for the body only, without the EF-EOS R mount adapter, so existing EF and EF-S lenses will require a separately purchased adapter to attach.
Reliable Image Quality and Autofocus
The RP is built around a 26.2MP full-frame CMOS sensor paired with a DIGIC 8 image processor, striking a balance between resolution, low-light performance, and responsiveness. Its Dual Pixel CMOS AF system offers up to 4,779 selectable on-sensor phase-detection points, covering approximately 88% of the frame horizontally and 100% vertically, delivering fast, accurate focus for both stills and video.
Practical Video and Handling
The RP supports UHD 4K video recording at up to 23.98/25 fps, along with a fully variangle 3.0-inch touchscreen LCD that makes framing flexible for a range of shooting angles, including self-recording. A built-in 2.36-million-dot OLED EVF and continuous shooting at up to 5 fps round out a well-balanced feature set for photographers prioritizing image quality and portability over outright speed.
