See the difference a full frame sensor can bring to your content with the Canon EOS R8 camera. Better bokeh, wider angles of view, and more detail – even in low light. Serious about video? Shoot 4K footage at 60p, then polish it off with Clog3's pro-filmmaking tools. 6K oversampling gives your videos superior sharpness and quality to really stand out from the crowd. If you're shooting on location, this one is great for travel. At just 461 g, this is Canon's lightest full frame camera yet.

Good to know

- A dedicated switch lets you jump between photo and video modes and the camera will remember your settings for each
- Dual Pixel CMOS AF II locks on to your subject's eyes or body so you never miss a shot as long as they remain in frame
- Share videos and photos anywhere, anytime with WiFi and ‘always on' Bluetooth – you can even control the camera remotely from your phone
- The Optical Image Stabiliser keeps things steady when shooting handheld, even as the light drops
- Shoot video like a ninja - the STM focusing motor is fast and quiet, so you won't spoil the moment
- Go from sweeping landscapes and group shots to flattering portraits with the included 24-50 mm lens

Why we love it

"You'll always get your subject perfectly in focus using the intelligent autofocus feature. It works with still shots and videos, and keeps subjects in sharp focus even as they move around the frame." - Jen, Product Copywriter
