Canon EOS RP EOS RP Black 2019
A 26.2MP full-frame CMOS sensor and DIGIC 8 processor deliver strong image quality in a body weighing just 485g, making it one of the lightest full-frame options available. Its 4779-point Dual Pixel CMOS AF system with Eye AF provides reliable subject tracking, while the fully articulating touchscreen aids unconventional shooting angles. This camera is best for streamers and vloggers who want a portable full-frame setup for controlled environments, though the 270-shot battery life and lack of stabilization limit its field use.
