Canon EOS R3 Real World Review By Jeff Cable

canon eos r3 firmware sample picture user manual

If you have followed the Canon EOS R3 pre-announcement rumors carousel, you have likely heard of Jeff Cable. Some of the photos he took at the Olympics found their way to the Internet and revealed the the R3’s sensor resolution.

Jeff Cable posted his Canon EOS R3 real world review, and here is his overall impression:

Not everyone needs a camera that performs at the level of the Canon R3, but for those of us who need to fire off 30 frames per second, need the super fast focus speeds, and want the very best, this camera is awesome. Ever since using the Canon R5 and Canon R6 for my photography, I knew that mirrorless was the way to go. The new Canon R3 brings all the power of the Canon 1D series to the mirrorless world, and that is a welcome addition to the Canon line-up. Canon may not like me saying this, but for anyone looking to purchase a Canon 1DX MKIII, I would recommend going with the Canon R3. I think that the R series is the future for Canon, with all the new lenses coming out for these new bodies, and the camera just performs better in so many respects.

His review comes with a huge set of sample photos.
