Canon RP + 100-400mm

All about the EOS RP

Features of the EOS RP Canon 

Canon EOS RP is impressively small despite having a large full-frame sensor, offering flexible imaging capabilities along with a portable form factor. With a high-resolution 26.2MP full-frame CMOS sensor coupled with a DIGIC 8 image processor, both still images and UHD 4K video can be recorded using a wide sensitivity range, from ISO 100-40000, to suit work in a variety of lighting conditions. Continuous shooting is also supported up to 5fps for photographing moving subjects. The sensor also facilitates an advanced dual-pixel CMOS AF system, with 4779 selectable phase detection points on the sensor to acquire focus quickly and accurately during stills and video operation.

Complementing the sensor and processor, the RP also has a 2.36m dot OLED electronic viewfinder along with a 3.04.0m 3.0" dot vari-angle touchscreen LCD monitor for easier viewing from high and low angles. In addition, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth allow wireless remote control of the camera along with direct sharing of images on linked mobile devices.

• Canon RF mount

The EOS RP features the RF Lens Mount, which supports Canon's RF mount lens line. This mount is characterized by its large diameter of 54mm and short flange distance of 20mm, which promotes the ability to design lenses that are faster and smaller than their SLR equivalents. The mount also incorporates a 12-pin electronic contact system for more sophisticated autofocus and image stabilization capabilities. This mount design also provides full compatibility with existing EF and EF-S mount lenses through an optional EF-EOS R mount adapter.

26.2MP full-frame CMOS sensor and DIGIC 8 image processor

It features a large 26.2MP full-frame CMOS sensor and serves as an ideal balance between high-resolution output, low-light performance, and high-speed capabilities. When paired with the DIGIC 8 image processor, the EOS RP has a wide native sensitivity range of ISO 100-40000 to work in a variety of lighting conditions. In addition, continuous shooting of up to 5 fps is possible to work with moving subjects.

• Dual Pixel CMOS AF

Dual Pixel CMOS AF delivers smooth and fast focusing performance similar to how a camcorder acquires focus. This system integrates two separate photodiodes within each pixel to provide a wide and dense network of phase detection collection elements on most image sensor to reduce focus seeking for faster and more direct control of focus placement. When working with still images, this focusing system works to acquire focus quickly and accurately, making it ideal for photographing and tracking moving subjects so that critical focus is achieved with each shot. When shooting video, Film Servo AF mode offers smooth, natural focusing when switching from different subjects or different distances within the scene, as well as the ability to specify tracking sensitivity, AF speed, and face or eye tracking priority. Benefiting from the Touch AF system, rack focusing is possible by simply touching elements within the scene on the touchscreen to change focus in an intuitive way. Subject tracking in movies is also increased due to the ability of the Dual Pixel CMOS AF system to recognize subjects and maintain focus when working in changing or crowded environments. In addition, the focusing system is EV-5 sensitive to work in low-light conditions with precise AF capabilities.

• 4K UHD video recording

Designed for the multimedia image creator, the EOS RP supports UHD 4K (3840 x 2160) resolution recordings up to 23.98fps at 120Mb/s, along with Full HD 1080p and HD 720p at 60fps for slow-motion playback. When recording in-camera, 4K video has 4:2:0 sampling and 8-bit color depth, and 8-bit 4:2:2 output is possible when using an external recorder.

Audio can be recorded using the built-in stereo microphone or an optional external microphone can also be used via the 3.5mm microphone jack.

In addition, the 5-axis Dual Sensing IS function can be used when recording a video to electronically reduce the appearance of camera shake for sharper and smoother recording.

• Body design

The integrated 2.36m dot OLED electronic viewfinder provides a bright and clear medium for eye-level viewing.
The 1.04m 3.0" rear LCD screen has a vari-angle design for easier use when working from high, low and front-facing angles. It's also a touchscreen for intuitive control of menu shooting, playback, and navigation controls.
Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity allows images to be shared, controlled and transferred wirelessly with a compatible smart device via the Canon Camera Connect app, which also supports geotagging your files using your mobile device's location data.

Features of the RF 100-400mm f5.6-8 lens 

It's a perfect agile lens for nature, sports and travel photography. With extended range, this zoom includes super-telephoto range in a lightweight and relatively sleek design along with support for coordinated IS to help control up to 6 stops of camera shake and Nano USM AF to promote faster focusing performance.

A versatile telephoto-zoom lens with a portable form factor, the Canon RF 100-400mm f/5.6-8 IS USM is a snappy lens perfect for wildlife, sports and travel shots. With extended range, this zoom includes super-telephoto range in a lightweight and relatively sleek design along with support for coordinated IS to help control up to 6 stops of camera shake and Nano USM AF to promote faster focusing performance.

Optically, the lens uses specialized elements to control a variety of aberrations and produce images with high sharpness and clarity throughout the zoom range. Close-up focusing is also possible, with a maximum magnification of 0.41x at the 400mm position, to photograph subjects as small as a credit card in the foreground.

• The long-range telephoto zoom lens is designed for use with full-frame RF-mount RF-mount mirrorless cameras Canon frame.
• The modest maximum aperture range of f/5.6-8 promotes a lightweight and relatively compact form factor.
• An ultra-low dispersion element appears on the front of the optical design and helps reduce chromatic aberrations and color stripes throughout the zoom range.
• An aspherical element helps control distortion and promotes a high degree of sharpness.
• Super Spectra Coating has been applied to minimize flare and ghosting to improve contrast and color fidelity when working in bright lighting conditions.
• An optical image stabilizer helps minimize the appearance of camera shake by 5.5 stops to allow you to work better in low-light conditions and with slower shutter speeds. In addition, when working with selected cameras, up to 6 stops of stabilization may be available with the coordinated optical image stabilizer and in-body image stabilizer.
• The Nano USM system uses a ring-type USM mechanism and an STM mechanism to perform fast and accurate focusing that is also smooth and nearly silent to suit photography and video applications. This focusing system also allows full-time manual focus control when working in the AF mode of a shot.
• Close focus capabilities are available throughout the zoom range, with a maximum magnification of 0.41x available at the 400mm position and a minimum focusing distance of 2.9' possible at the 200mm position.
• The rounded 9-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasant bokeh quality.
• The configurable control ring can be used to adjust a variety of exposure settings, including aperture, ISO, and exposure compensation.
• Compatible with optional Extender RF 1.4x and Extender RF 2x teleconverters to further increase the effective focal length.
