IMAGE QUALITY
High Image Quality featuring a New 45 Megapixel Full-frame CMOS Sensor
The EOS R5 camera features an entirely new Canon-developed CMOS sensor with approx. 45 effective megapixels. It employs the DIGIC X Image Processor to enhance the speed of operations across the board. This means fast, efficient performance and phenomenal image quality for big prints, impressive 4K video and more.
In-body Image Stabilizer High Resolution Shot
Using the EOS R5 with firmware 1.8.1 or later, the IBIS High Resolution shot mode can create 400 megapixel (approx.) files in camera, without the need for external software. This feature can be used for some specific situations when a high-resolution file with fine detail is required. Examples include art reproduction and building signage.
DIGIC X Image Processor
The EOS R5 camera is the first Canon EOS camera – in the Mirrorless series camera line — to feature a powerful DIGIC X Image Processor, which helps to enhance fine detail in your image.
ISO range of 100-51200; Expandable to 102400
Delivering high standard and expanded ISOs (for still images), and a score of options to help enhance shooting in varied and fast-changing lighting situations, the EOS R5 camera can shoot at expanded sensitivities down to ISO 50 (L) and up to 102400 (H).
SPEED AND AUTOFOCUS
Up to 12 fps with Mechanical Shutter
Delivering incredible performance at speeds of up to 12 fps, the EOS R5 camera can capture the split-second details between a subject's movements. This is ideal for dynamic action photos such as athletes, animals or vehicles in motion.
Up to 20 fps Electronic (Silent) Shutter
Especially helpful for wildlife photography, journalism and situations where photographers need to remain discrete, the EOS R5 camera features a selectable electronic (silent) shutter mode, and can capture images at up to 20 fps.
High-speed Focusing with Dual Pixel CMOS AF
The EOS R5 camera's highly responsive Dual Pixel CMOS AF II system features an incredible 1,053 Automatic AF zones that can be designated as auto-focus focal points (when Face + Tracking priority AF is selected). This ensures higher-precision Eye Detection AF, or allows for you to focus on the desired AF point. Fast action can be captured and focus can be maintained with speed, accuracy and ease.
AF Area Coverage of Approx. 100% x 100%^2
The EOS R5 camera features an expansive focus area of approx. 100% horizontal and 100% vertical^2 when working with select RF and EF lenses. With older EF lenses, or with Extender types I and II, the EOS R5 focuses on approx. 80% horizontally and 80% vertically of the image. This means fast and impressive focusing even when composing your subject far from the center of the frame.
EV -6^3 Low-light Autofocus
Amazing for nighttime photography or in very low light settings, the EOS R5 camera's brilliant AF can operate in light as dim as a light rating of EV -6^3 where other AF systems may fail or search. Phenomenal AF is achieved even when using lenses with high F numbers.
Head and Eye Detection
The EOS R5 camera brings head and eye detection to a new level. Even in situations where a camera may struggle to detect a subject, the EOS R5 camera can locate a person's head or eye when people detection is set, allowing ease and accuracy when capturing videos or still images, or while in Live View mode.
Animal Detection*2
For the first time in a Canon Mirrorless camera, animal detection is now possible. Developed using deep learning technology, the EOS R5 camera can effectively track the whole body, face, or eye of cats, dogs, or birds for speed and precision – regardless of the animal's size, posture, or orientation of the face.
VIDEO CAPABILITIES
8K RAW, 4K up to 120fps Internal Recording in all Formats, with Auto Focus
With the high-speed processing capability of the DIGIC X image processor, the EOS R5 is able to record 8K movies (uncropped, at up to 29.97 fps) 4K video shooting is also possible at up to 119.9fps, in 4:2:2 10-bit (H.265) Canon Log, and Dual Pixel CMOS AF is available in all 8K and 4K modes. Additional new features include: Internally recorded and uncropped 8K RAW Recording up to 29.97 fps with Dual Pixel CMOS AF, and HDR-PQ Recording (H.265) capability.
IMAGE STABILIZATION
In-body Image Stabilizer can provide up to 8 stops of Shake Correction
The EOS R5 is Canon's first camera to incorporate 5-axis IBIS (In-Body Image Stabilization). This camera will not only enhance the ability to shoot still images at slower shutter speeds but it will also help reduce camera shake when shooting movies. Additionally, the EOS R5's IBIS will work in combination with Optical Image Stabilization found in many Canon RF and EF lenses.
Dual Card Slots for CFexpress** and UHS-II SD Memory Cards***
Whether you are shooting photos every day, or are recording 8K videos, the EOS R5 camera can capture an incredible amount of images through its super high-speed CFexpress dual card slots. Plus a UHS-II SD*** card slot is also provided at your disposal.
PERFORMANCE
0.5-type OLED EVF with Approx. 5.76 Million Dots
