Reviews of cameras, lenses, tripods, heads and other accessories written by Bart La Gioia

Canon EOS RP

Pros: Electronic viewfinder, swivel screen, focus points, weight

Cons: A bit of a poor burst, lack of a second memory slot, AF problems with third-party optics and even with Canon optics

Opinion: He replaced my beloved 6d from which I really struggled to break away. I must myself despite reviewing the evaluations on this machine after experiencing its use. Beyond the well-known battery deficiencies (solvable with other batteries, even non-original), I found a defect in AF; I tried both the Tamron 70-200 2.8 USM and the homonymous 150-600 USM that with the 6D have never had any problems in focusing, while on the RP, especially at the maximum focal lengths have encountered many problems to go on fire. I also tried the CANON 100 2.8 L macro (a superlative lens on every occasion) looked like an STM of the worst quality; He croaked and struggled in the focus. Evidently (personal opinion), there is some problem with the use of the adapter. By Pulling the sums, the RP seems to me more like an EOS M with on a FF sensor. But at a triple cost. I have seen many potential, but I think that the maximum can be obtained (for now) with the RP lenses (which have their cost) and that with the other optics there are some flaws to solve. Undoubtedly not everything is negative but, for €1500, you can have some better. Final Outcome.... RETURNED and replaced with the 6D2. I Presume it is better to wait until this new RP makes a due process of growth.
