For our “Deals of the Week,” we found some awesome deals on Canon’s R series of mirrorless cameras.
If you’re a Canon shooter and have been looking to upgrade your way to the new RF mount, this week’s sale is your sign. While new updates to the Canon R6 are already out, that doesn’t mean the original R5, R6, and R7 aren’t great cameras.
For this week’s Deals of the Week, we have camera bodies and lenses to get you started on any budget.
The Canon EOS R5 is for shooters that need resolution, speed, and video capabilities. It’s a full-frame mirrorless camera that features a newly developed 45MP CMOS sensor, which offers 8K raw video recording, 12 fps continuous shooting with a mechanical shutter, and is the first EOS camera to feature 5-axis sensor-shift image stabilization.
For those on a budget that still want a full-frame sensor, the Canon EOS R6 is a great choice. Built around a revised 20MP full-frame CMOS sensor, the EOS R6 offers 4K60p and FHD 120p 10-Bit Internal Video on top of some solid still options. Its sensor is paired with a tuned DIGIC X image processor, which enables impressive stills and video capabilities, along with sensitivity from ISO 100-102400, which can be expanded up to ISO 204800.
Finally, for those who need to make every dollar count, the Canon EOS R7 is the perfect fit. Representing Canon‘s move into APS-C, the R7 features a 32.5MP CMOS sensor that is capable of high-speed 30 fps shooting for sports and wildlife and features the renowned Dual Pixel CMOS AF II focusing system to keep up with and track fast-moving subjects. And, for the multimedia image-maker, 4K video is supported at up to 60p, or 30p when oversampled from a 7K area, and Full HD at up to 120 fps.
Covering a versatile wide-angle focal length range, the Canon RF 15-35mm f/2.8 L IS USM is a great first lens for your new Canon R series camera. The fast f/2.8 aperture is a solid tool for shooting in available light conditions and also affords greater control over the depth of field. The range of wide focal lengths suits working in a variety of situations, from landscape to documentary shooting, and this zoom is complemented by an advanced optical design that greatly reduces color fringing and distortion for high clarity and sharpness.
An Air-Sphere coating has also been applied to reduce flare and ghosting for improved contrast and color fidelity when working in bright conditions. A unique Control Ring is also integrated into the lens design for intuitive control over exposure settings from the lens itself.
Additionally, this 15-35mm is weather-sealed and has a fluorine coating to protect the front and rear elements.
Combining a short-telephoto field of view with a sleek design and close-focusing performance, the Canon RF 85mm f/2 Macro IS STM is a well-rounded lens for a range of subjects, from portraits to macro subjects. Its close-focus design enables working with subject matter as close as 1.15′ away with a 1:2 maximum magnification. The STM stepping motor affords impressively quiet and smooth autofocus performance and full-time manual focus override.
Helping to create sharp imagery, the lens also features optical image stabilization, along with Hybrid IS, to suppress up to five stops of camera shake for cleaner, steadier shooting. A UD (Ultra-low Dispersion) element is also used in the optical design to minimize aberrations and ensure clarity. Additionally, a configurable Control Ring lets you adjust exposure settings, including ISO, aperture, and exposure compensation, from the lens itself.
