Canon EOS RP Black 2019
A 26MP full-frame CMOS sensor and 4779-point autofocus system deliver sharp, detailed stills in a body weighing just 485g, making it one of the lightest full-frame options available. Its EF mount compatibility via an adapter opens access to a vast lens library, while the articulating touchscreen aids in awkward shooting angles. This camera is best for photographers prioritizing a portable full-frame system for portraits and product work over high-speed action or video.
