For the first time in history, Canon has unveiled two new full-frame mirrorless cameras simultaneously: the EOS R1, its first flagship EOS R system camera, and the EOS R5 Mark II, an advanced successor to the EOS R5.
With the new launch, the R1 now sits right on top of the R System Family pyramid at the top of the food chain, in terms of price and functionalities.
The EOS R1 is designed for professionals, inheriting the trusted excellence of Canon’s 1 series.
It features a 24-megapixel back-illuminated (BSI) stacked CMOS sensor, capable of elevating images to 96 megapixels with its In-Camera Upscaling technology. This camera aims to provide unmatched control and performance, enhancing the professional production process.
During the launch preview, we were given a walk-through on the key differentiator for the R1 compared to all other cameras – its powerful autofocus that can lock and track subjects automatically and rapidly. For instance, you can set the camera to remember key star athletes in order of priority. The autofocus will be able to transit focus rapidly on the right subject when someone scores or blocks a goal during a crucial split-second moment in a live match. This killer feature is super nifty. Imagine being equipped with a R1 during the recent Trump shooting, you would be able to get razor focused shots of Trump in every shots with this superior autofocus.
The EOS R1 will be available in November 2024 at an estimated retail price of $9,599. Sample shots:
