Canon EOS R3 Mirrorless Digital Camera Body

Canon Brings their first 3 series camera since the EOS-3 film camera in 1998. The EOS R3 combines the best features from the R5 and the EOS-1D X Mark III, bringing you a powerful and high-performing camera.

Back-illuminated Stacked 24.1 Megapixel Full-frame CMOS Sensor

The EOS R3 delivers fast read-out speed and produces lower rolling shutter distortion thanks to the new 24.1MP Full-Frame Sensor. This sensor was built so that it increases light-capturing efficiency which makes your low light photos cleaner and gives you the ability to capture them as 14-bit RAW files in electronic shutter mode.

DIGIC X Image Processor

The EOS R3 camera features a powerful DIGIC X Image Processor that enables high-performing operation and coordination of processes such as Dual Pixel CMOS AF II, Image Stabilization, image processing, and video functionality. Featuring an ISO range of 100-102400 (expandable to 204800), the EOS R3 camera delivers a large range of standard and expanded ISOs (for still images). 

High-speed continuous shooting

Delivering incredible performance at speeds of up to 12 fps with the mechanical shutter and up to 30 fps with the electronic (silent) shutter, the EOS R3 camera can capture the split-second details between a subject’s movements. This is ideal for dynamic action photos such as athletes, animals, cars, and motorcycles in motion.

Improved Dual Pixel CMOS AF with 1,053 AF Points featuring Vehicle Detection

The EOS R3 camera’s highly responsive Dual Pixel CMOS AF II system has been improved with features such as the incredible 1,053 Automatic AF zones as well as improved servo AF cases utilizing eye, body, face, head (now including helmets), animal, and now vehicle subject detection. Fast action can be captured and focus can be maintained throughout each burst capture with speed, accuracy, and ease.

The First EOS Digital camera to feature Eye Control AF

Improving on a feature that was popular on the EOS 3 film camera, the EOS R3 takes it into the digital mirrorless range of EOS cameras making the subject focus fast and more precise. Eye control AF is controlled by the user simply looking through the Electronic Viewfinder at the subject they want to focus on, selecting that point, and shooting. This is just one more way the EOS R3 gives the photographer another option of easily and intuitively controlling focus. 

5.76-million-dot & 120 fps blackout-free EVF with quick response

The EOS R3 camera features a high-precision EVF with approx. 5.76 million dots reducing lag time during continuous shooting. Displaying a bright image and extensive shooting information that rotates with the camera, the EVF adds an OVF simulation view assist feature which recreates the natural field of a traditional optical viewfinder. The EOS R3’s blackout-free EVF when in electronic shutter mode supports a 120 fps refresh rate and has been created to provide a bright, sharp, and colorful 100% continuous view of the tracked subject at hand. The EOS R3 also features a 3.2-inch Vari-angle Touchscreen LCD that can be ideal for composing and reviewing your photos as well as making menu changes.

Capable of recording 6K 60P RAW or 4K 120p 10-bit (uncropped) with Canon Log 3

Designed and developed with Cinema EOS pairing, the EOS R3 leverages its capabilities of 6K RAW at 60 fps or 4K 120 fps uncropped. What’s more, the camera can also leverage 6K and 5.6K oversampling in 4K DCI and UHD respectively, resulting in a higher image quality with less moiré, color distortion, and noise. Flexible recording modes ranging from 8 to 12-bit recording using HDR PQ, Canon Log 3, RAW, and of course EOS Standard enable the user to choose the post-production workflow needed for the project.

In-body Image Stabilizer can provide up to 8 stops of Shake Correction

Incorporating 5-axis IBIS (In-Body Image Stabilization) found on the EOS R5 and R6 cameras, the EOS R3 will not only enhance the ability to shoot still images at slower shutter speeds but it will also help reduce camera shake when shooting movies. Additionally, the EOS R3’s IBIS will work in combination with the Optical Image Stabilization found in many Canon RF lenses producing a total of up to 8-stops of shake correction

Multi-Function Shoe plus Speedlite EL-1 synchronization

The next-generation Multi-Function Shoe adds functionality including wireless radio flash control for still photography and also is capable of inputting digital sound data during movie shooting along with network communication when connected with a smartphone. 

Wired LAN, USB, Wi-Fi, GPS, and Bluetooth Technology

The EOS R3 features flexible connectivity options, including both wired and wireless connections for multiple methods of image and video transfer. The camera is equipped with a standard Ethernet interface (IEEE 802.3u, 1000BASE-T) and connector (RJ-45) for a fast and secure hardwired connection. The built-in 5GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth wireless connections allow you to easily upload image or video files to a smartphone, computer, or to a cloud service. The built-in GPS (compatible with GLONASS and QZSS) streamlines workflow by tagging files with GPS location coordinates and accurate camera timestamp metadata making file and chronological organization easier.

Dust and drip resistance equal to the EOS-1D X Series 

The EOS R3 camera is designed for use in a variety of weather conditions. Sealing materials are used in critical areas like buttons, dials, levers, terminal covers, battery compartment, and card slot cover. Precise design and construction help to minimize accidental penetration of dust and moisture in the rest of the camera body.

Canon EOS R3 Mirrorless Digital Camera Body SKU: CAER3

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sports and wildlife beast I’ve had this for a couple of weeks now and have just one minor complaint. I also have a 45 megapixel Z9 which I love and when people say 24 megapixels isn’t enough for wildlife, that’s just complete bull. It’s plenty even leaving room to crop in but you can’t be unrealistic if the bird or animal is just too far away. The sensor is beautiful and has a lot of character. The only complaint I have is the bump for the thumb rest is uncomfortable. I don’t know if it is because it sticks out too far but I actually started to get a blister.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best purchase I've made in a while! I am absolutely overjoyed to have purchased the R3 and excited for the images and video I will be able to capture. Before getting the R3 I had been shooting an R6. I watched several videos on the R3 prior to purchase and thought I had a pretty good idea of what to expect. When I actually got it in my hands and began to set it up, I was amazed to discover the true capabilities of the R3 and the labyrinth of customizable options. I truly enjoy shooting the R3 and it is an absolute game-changer. During set-up I maximize options by leaving and using dedicated buttons as set, and not taking up an additional button to serve those functions. I am still tweaking the settings and finding more ways to make the most of this great camera.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The Best Camera Ever!!!!! I've had my R3 for about 2 weeks now I can't and don't want to put it down!!!!! Best camera I've ever owned and finally my first pro body!!!!! I started getting into photography in 2009 with a Canon Rebel. I graduated to the 50D, then the 60D, to the 5D Mark II, finally followed by the 5D Mark III. I always wanted a 1D system but it was far out of my reach. When I seen mirrorless cameras I knew that was the future but, Canon wasn't gonna go there quickly. So I waited until they released the R I immediately sold all DSLR gear when that happened. The mirrorless technology coupled with the RF glass was everything I was waiting for. I finally got he R5 and R6. My photography business shooting weddings, senior and family portraits skyrocketed. I drooled over the R3 for 2 years and now finally I have it and I love it!!!! The autofocusing system in this camera is absolutely insane. The colors are true to life. The dynamic range is stellar and lowlight performance is nothing short of amazing!!!! Thank you Canon!!!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Superb camera Most responsive, accurate and quickest camera I have ever owned. I will not ever need another camera as long as I have this one in my camera bag.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great camera Great camera. Bought it 14 months ago and have shot 1.3 million sports photos with it. The high frame rate helps get that one pic with the ball on the finger tips and the soccer ball flattened by the player's head. Only down side is difficulty keeping the eye control auto focus turned off so I can lock in the desired focus point.
