Chronology
PredecessorCanon EOS 7D Mark II (DSLR)

The Canon EOS R7 is a high-end semi-professional APS-C mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera produced by Canon.[4][5][6] The camera was announced by Canon on May 24, 2022 alongside the Canon EOS R10 and released in Japan on June 23, 2022.[7][1] The R7 and R10 were Canon's first two APS-C RF mount cameras. Two RF-S mount lenses were offered as kit lenses with the R7: the RF-S 18-150mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM and the RF-S 18-45 f/4.5-6.3 IS STM.[6]

Main features

The R7 serves as Canon's top of the line APS-C camera, which was previously served by the 7D Mark II DSLR from 2014.[8][9][10] The R7 adopts the 32.5-megapixel image sensor previously seen in the 90D,[11] while continuing to deliver improvements brought about by the DIGIC X image processor and Canon's switch to a mirrorless system.

These are the main features of the R7:

  • 32.5-megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor[2]
  • Dual Pixel CMOS AF II with human, animal and vehicle tracking[2]
  • High-speed continuous shooting of up to 15 fps with mechanical and first curtain electronic shutter; and up to 30fps with electronic shutter[2]
  • Sensor shift in-body image stabilization (IBIS) which can provide up to 8 stops of shake correction[2]
  • Automatic Leveling mode which uses the body's IBIS to compensate for moderate lateral tilt, keeping the sensor aligned with the horizon[12]
  • 4K/60 video recording capability with 64% sensor crop, or 100% crop video recording at 4K/30 oversampled from 7K resolution[2]
  • 1080p video recording at up to 120 fps[2]
  • HDR PQ or Canon Log 3 video recording[2]
  • 100% autofocus coverage (with Auto selection)[2]
  • 5,915 autofocus points, with 651 autofocus areas when automatically selected[2]
  • Native ISO range of 100 to 32000; expandable to 51200[2]
  • 0.39" 2.36 million dots OLED electronic viewfinder with 60/120fps selectable refresh rate, and a vari-angle LCD touchscreen[2]
  • Dual UHS-II SD memory card slots[2]
  • USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C connector for charging and data transfer[2]
  • Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity[2]
  • DIGIC X image processor[2]
  • weather resistant[13]
  • Multi-Function Shoe: A new hot shoe design compatible with a variety of accessories including an XLR microphone adapter

Third-party lenses

At the release of the R7 and R10 in 2022, reviewers noted that the selection of lenses for these cameras was limited and that the RF-S lenses released with them were consumer grade.[14][15] On April 22, 2024, Sigma and Tamron announced that they had been licensed by Canon to make third-party lenses for its APS-C RF mount cameras like the R7 and R10.[16] The next day, Digital Camera World reported that these would be "the first [third-party] autofocus RF lenses that Canon has allowed to remain on the market."[17]
