The Canon EOS R5 Mirrorless Camera delivers far more than its impressive technical specifications. Designed to fit perfectly in your hands, the Canon R5 is comfortable and intuitive so you can stay in the moment and capture stunning photos and videos. The R5 builds off of Canon’s legacy of powerful full-frame cameras with boundary-pushing technology that enhances image quality, performance, and reliability.

With Canon’s newly designed 45-megapixel full-frame sensor, the Canon EOS R5 Mirrorless Digital Camera offers incredible photographic and cinematic video performance. Capable of shooting continuously at up to 20 frames-per-second along with the enhanced Dual Pixel XMOS AF II, you can use the R5 camera to capture fast-moving subjects with outstanding focus. The 1,053 automatic AF zones within the camera keep people and animals in focus effortlessly using eye, face, and head detection AF.

The Canon R5 is the first of the EOS series to utilize 5-axis in-body image stabilization to help eliminate camera shake when using stabilized or non-stabilized image lenses. With approximately 8 stops of stabilization, the R5 camera can effectively compensate for camera shake when shooting video or photos with slower shutter speeds.

When it comes time to share the photos taken with your Canon R5, easily connect through included 5GHz and 2.4GHz Wi-Fi® or Bluetooth functions and move files between devices.

Canon EOS R5 Mirrorless Digital Camera Body

FEATURES:

High Image Quality featuring a New 45 Megapixel Full-frame CMOS Sensor

The EOS R5 camera features an entirely new Canon-developed CMOS sensor with approx. 45 effective megapixels. It employs the DIGIC X Image Processor to enhance the speed of operations across the board. This means fast, efficient performance and phenomenal image quality for big prints, impressive 4K video, and more.

DIGIC X Image Processor

The EOS R5 camera is the first Canon EOS camera – in the Mirrorless series camera line – to feature a powerful DIGIC X Image Processor, which helps to enhance fine detail in your image.

ISO range of 100-51200; Expandable to 102400

Delivering high standard and expanded ISOs (for still images), and a score of options to help enhance shooting in varied and fast-changing lighting situations, the EOS R5 camera can shoot at expanded sensitivities down to ISO 50 (L) and up to 102400 (H).

Up to 12 fps with Mechanical Shutter

Incredible performance at speeds of up to 12 fps, the Canon R5 can capture the split-second details between a subject’s movements. This is ideal for dynamic action photos such as athletes, animals, or vehicles in motion.

Up to 20 fps Electronic (Silent) Shutter

Especially helpful for wildlife photography, journalism, and situations where photographers need to remain discrete, the EOS R5 camera features a selectable electronic (silent) shutter mode and can capture images at up to 20 fps. With a fast AF/AE system, DIGIC X image Processor and high-speed recording with new Dual CFexpress card slots, the EOS R5 ensures that camera operations are performed quickly and precisely.

High-speed Focusing with Dual Pixel CMOS AF

The EOS R5 camera’s highly responsive Dual Pixel CMOS AF system features an incredible 1,053 Automatic AF zones that can be designated as auto-focus focal points (when Face + Tracking priority AF is selected). This ensures higher-precision Eye Detection AF, or allows you to focus on the desired AF point. Fast action can be captured and focus can be maintained with speed, accuracy, and ease.

AF Area Coverage of Approx. 100% x 100%

The Canon EOS R5 features an expansive focus area of approx. 100% horizontal and 100% vertical when working with select RF and EF lenses. With older EF lenses, or with Extender types I and II, the EOS R5 focuses on approx. 80% horizontally and 80% vertically of the image. This means fast and impressive focusing even when composing your subject far from the center of the frame.

EV -6 Low-light Autofocus

Amazing for nighttime photography or in very low light settings, the EOS R5 camera’s brilliant AF can operate in light as dim as a light rating of EV -6 where other AF systems may fail or search. Phenomenal AF is achieved even when using lenses with high F numbers. This ultra-sensitive AF works together with the Canon R5’s EVF to clearly capture subjects even when light is limited. Combined with the EOS R5 camera’s remarkable low-light AF performance, still and video shooting is possible even in dark situations in a variety of places and occasions.

Head and Eye Detection

The EOS R5 camera brings head and eye detection to a new level. Even in situations where a camera may struggle to detect a subject, the EOS R5 can locate a person’s head or eye when people detection is set, allowing ease and accuracy when capturing videos or still images, or while in Live View mode.

Animal Detection

For the first time in a Canon Mirrorless camera, animal detection is now possible. Developed using deep learning technology, the EOS R5 camera can effectively track the whole body, face, or eye of cats, dogs, or birds for speed and precision – regardless of the animal’s size, posture, or orientation of the face.

8K RAW, 4K up to 120fps, 10-bit 4:2:2 with Canon Log or HDR PQ, Internal Recording in all Formats, with Auto Focus

With the high-speed processing capability of the DIGIC X image processor, the Canon R5 is able to record 8K movies (uncropped, at up to 29.97 fps) – a first for Canon full-frame mirrorless cameras. 4K video shooting is also possible at up to 119.9fps, in 4:2:2 10-bit (H.265) Canon Log, and Dual Pixel CMOS AF is available in all 8K and 4K modes. Image-makers worldwide will be able to tell their stories in larger-than-life resolutions. Additional new features include: Internally recorded and uncropped 8K RAW Recording up to 29.97 fps with Dual Pixel CMOS AF and HDR-PQ Recording (H.265) capability. The advanced 8K DCI filming capability also allows you to extract 35.4-megapixel still images.

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

The EOS R5 is Canon’s first camera to incorporate 5-axis IBIS (In-Body Image Stabilization). This camera 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 R5’s IBIS will work in combination with Optical Image Stabilization found in many Canon RF and EF lenses.

Dual Card Slots for CFexpress and UHS-II SD Memory Cards Memory Cards

Whether you are shooting photos every day, or are recording 8K videos, the EOS R5 camera can capture an incredible amount of images through its super high-speed CFexpress dual card slots. Plus a UHS-II SD card slot is also provided at your disposal.

0.5-type OLED EVF with Approx. 5.76 Million Dots

The EOS R5 camera features a high-precision 0.5-inch OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) EVF with approx. 5.76 million dots and a 23mm eyepoint. Displaying a bright image and extensive shooting information that rotates with the camera. The EOS R5’s EVF supports a 120 fps refresh rate and has been created to provide a bright, sharp, and colorful 100% view of the subject at hand, displaying a crisp and vivid image with minimal aberration or distortion.

Vari-angle Touchscreen LCD

The EOS R5 camera features a 3.15-inch, 2.1 Megapixel Clear View LCD II Vari-angle Touchscreen LCD. Its extensive flexibility makes it easy to compose and shoot from virtually any angle, making selfies simple and enabling the LCD to fold away when not in use. The brightness of the EVF and the LCD monitor can even be adjusted individually. Touchscreen features include settings, review, and even AF point selection.

Dot-matrix LCD Panel

An LCD panel on the top of the camera features a dot-matrix display that shows information on the camera’s status, recording mode, and more. It gives real-time setting information both when the camera is in use or on standby, and can be inverted from black to white to suit viewing preferences or the ambient light source.

2.4/5Ghz Built-in Wi-Fi Capability

In addition to the traditional 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, the EOS R5 camera now supports 5 GHz Wi-Fi communication – a first for EOS mirrorless cameras. Users can easily perform high-speed FTP data transfer between the camera and using the free Canon Camera Connect app. Simply connect to the Camera Connect app where you can browse, or download images to your smart device, then share and upload from the device directly to various social media sites and web services. For professional photographers using the EOS R5 camera, the built-in Wi-Fi® is the ideal feature that is needed for quick wireless connectivity.
