The Canon EOS RP is a 26.2MP full-frame mirrorless camera, well suited to vlogging and hybrid shooting.
Every figure below is measured against the 11 Canon RF Full-Frame cameras in the catalogue, so you can see where this camera actually sits rather than reading its spec sheet in isolation.
| Spec | This camera | Where it lands |
|---|---|---|
| Weight | 485g (1.07 lb) | 2nd lightest of 11 |
| Price (MSRP) | $1,299 | the cheapest of 11 |
| Resolution | 26.2MP | 6th lowest of 11 |
| 4K frame rate | 25p | joint 2nd slowest of 11 |
A full-frame sensor at 26.2MP gives the shallowest depth of field of the three formats at any given framing and aperture, and the most sensor area to gather light with. That is the physical reason full-frame bodies tend to be the larger and heavier option: the lenses that cover the format have to be bigger too.
4K tops out at 25p, which covers standard delivery but leaves no room for slowing footage down.
The body is weather-sealed.
