Abstract: The Canon EOS R is the DSLR giant's first crack at a full-frame mirrorless camera. Can it keep up with the likes of Sony, Panasonic, and more recently, Nikon? Take a look...

This is a cracking debut on the mirrorless camera market for Canon. It won't be a camera for every professional out there – not enough body controls, frames per second and battery life – but for enthusiasts who simply want the very best image quality, it...
Fantastic image quality, Equally good video quality, Particularly impressive autofocus function
Innovative touch bar is less than innovative, Battery life is underwhelming
