One of the best brands in the world of Canon cameras is not unknown to anyone. Canon is currently making cameras for all classes of people, which is why its popularity is growing day by day.
Canon strives to release a premium quality camera every year. So Canon lovers are always waiting for the new premium model. In continuation of this Canon is going to launch the Canon EOS R3 model, which is a new addition to the world of a premium feature camera.
Canon is already posting on their official website about some of the features of this camera. This confirms that its model has many more features than Canon EOS R5 and Canon EOS R6.
In this article, I will explain in detail the features of the Canon EOS R3 model. So if you are interested to know about this model of Canon, stay with me till the end of this article.
Price And Release Date:
The body of the Canon EOS R3 is priced at $5,999, which is definitely a premium price tag. It is less expensive than Sony A1’s and Canon EOS 1D X Mark III.
The Canon EOS R3 will be released in mid-November, Canon said on their website.
But didn’t give a clear idea whether it will be released globally in November. However, in this regard, it seems to us that at first they may not be released worldwide, it may take up to 2 months for everyone worldwide to get this model.
Design
Canon did not specifically describe the design of the Canon EOS R3, but after researching it in detail, I came to know that it is equivalent to the Canon EOS 1D X Mark II. This means we can assume that the Canon EOS R3 will be much larger than the Sony A1.
However, it weighs 822g, which is much lighter than the Canon EOS 1D X Mark II. Due to the build quality and built-in battery grip of the EOS R3, this model can really be used as a professional sports camera.
It uses the same LP-E19 battery as the EOS-1D X Mark II, which will be much more powerful than the Canon EOS R5’s LP-E6NH battery.
Autofocus
In the mirrorless camera war between Canon and Sony, the main difference between the two is said to be autofocus. Canon claims that the focus on the EOS R3 model is much better than the fastest EOS R series camera R5 model, which is capable of focusing at 0.03 seconds compared to 0.05 seconds.
The EOS R3 model has added another new ‘vehicle tracking’ which is the first Canon camera. This is a feature we have seen before in this model only Olympus OM-D E-M1X. For example, if you just take a picture of a driver’s helmet while a racing car is running, you can do that too.
However, this camera also has all the features that the EOS R5 had for taking pictures of people or any animal.
Eye-Control Autofocus
Eye-Control Autofocus is the latest new feature of the Canon EOS R3 model. It works a lot like magic. Now you might be wondering how autofocus works like magic? No problem, I’m explaining.
We do not normally use autofocus when using the camera professionally. This is because autofocus tends to be a little paradoxical when focusing on different objects in the same frame.
But the Canon EOS R3 model uses the Eye-Control Autofocus feature, which when you look through the lens and take a shot, the camera will focus on the object when you look at the object with your eyes. Eye Control Autofocus has given the DSLR camera a new dimension.
Video capability
EOS R3 is able to capture better quality video than EOS R5. Because it contains footage in 6K 60p RAW resolution, which can provide 50 percent more detail than 4K. This camera can modify exposure and white balance post-capture while videotaped, ensuring stunning quality. The EOS R5 model also ensures maximum 4K movie quality from 4K footage 6K to 60p.
Because of all these features, this camera can be great for high speed and dynamic sports. The Canon EOS R3 camera can be used for six hours of regular video recording.
Smart Controller and inputs
The Canon EOS R3 model has only revealed the front part, which is why no clear idea has yet been found about what kind of buttons, controls, and inputs can be. However, it can be deduced from other general issues that it has been built with 100% importance towards professional use.
It may also use a smarter design than the 1D X Mark II. However, it is expected that Canon will add something completely new like Touchbar which has not been released yet.
Final Words
There are many companies in the market that make cameras, Canon is one of the best. Canon is currently making cameras for all classes of users, which is why its popularity is now at its peak, as I once said above.
Canon and Sony are always fighting over camera features, especially for premium models. As a result of this fight, both are releasing one camera after another with premium features.
Canon is going to release the premium feature camera of the Canon EOS R3 model in November this year. I have described all the aspects of this camera above. Hope you read all of the above well.
