Pros: The most consistent of the AF modules, the ability to focus in the dark, the shutter speed of 1/64,000, the exclusive Eye Focus Control, the best resistance to high ISO, 24 excellent Megapixels, the automatic recognition of people, animals and vehicles, the perfect ergonomics especially with "important" lenses such as Supertele and fixed RF, extraordinary burst (up to 30 FPS with ES), Canon's first Stacked sensor, the excellent tropicalization, the presence of the smart touch control at the AF ON button, the excellent viewfinder even in very low light, the absence of rolling shutter, a powerful battery that "moves" in an instant even the heaviest lenses.
Cons: Absence of lock button for the mode dial, this can allow you to turn it inadvertently (I set the ISO to this), slightly small upper display.
Opinion: Canon's dedicated camera for photographers engaged in sports, photojournalism, reportage and "fast" birdlife, the Canon EOS R3 is the first Canon FF RF to be equipped with the brand new Stacked sensor designed and manufactured by Canon. The latter, together with the excellent DIGIC X processor, represents the fulcrum of the R3 whose task is to ferry canon 1 Series owners to the new Mount RF. Thanks to the very fast readout of the sensor (1/180) the R3 allows you to use the electronic shutter in virtually any situation without the risk of incurring the Rolling Shutter. I immediately appreciated the operating speed combined with the possibility of shooting up to 1/64,000 (with bursts up to 30 FPS with electronic shutter) and with a consistency of photos in focus practically absolute in any context thanks to an incredible and fully customizable AF module that, repeated to the competition, can also take advantage of the innovative (for an R) Eye Focus Control, that is, the possibility of looking with the eye at what you want to focus on, thus giving the control to the machine combined with the possibility of automatically selecting people, animals and vehicles. The sensor is as fast as it is in quality (this is perceived as soon as you open the first RAW) so much so that it has earned the highest score (for a Canon sensor) on DXO which, at the same time, has praised it as "the best low light performance of any full-frame camera in our database". Its form factor winks at the historical customers of the Canon 1 Series and guarantees almost perfect ergonomics, especially with "important" lenses such as Supertele and RF fixtures. This machine removes any alibi to the photographer: if correctly set the AF module it is not possible to mistake the hooking of a subject as it is not possible to have a frame of an out-of-focus burst so, if this were to occur, the fault would fall, solely, on the incompetence of the user. I have yet to test it in the travel reportage but, from my first impressions, this is a total machine capable of fulfilling its duty both in a studio in Rome and in a context of rain, dust and humidity typical of some difficult destinations. |
