Two bodies, one mission


If you want to experience the EOS advantage yourself, you’ve got
two great options; the EOS R5 and the EOS R6. Both offer all the
core bene ts of the EOS R systems, but offer different specialisms.
At £4,199.99, the EOS R5 has the highest pixel count of any EOS
camera ever. It’s 45MP sensor has an ISO range of 100-51,200 for
greater freedom in low-light conditions, and 100% AF coverage with
5,940 selectable points. For video it offers unrivalled 8K 12-bit Raw
video and 4K UHD up to 120p for amazingly smooth slow-motion
effects. All this comes in a weather-resistant magnesium-alloy body
with dual-card support across CFexpress and SD UHS II formats.
Offering a lower resolution, but a more all-round appeal, the
£2,499.99 EOS R6 has a 20.1-million-pixel CMOS sensor with a
100-102,400 ISO range adding up to amazing versatility in low-light
environments. For video, the EOS R6 makes ultra-detailed 4K 60p
UHD video by oversampling from 5.1K, and there’s Full HD at
120fps. Plus there’s dual card recording with two SD UHS II slots.


RF lenses: quality redefi ned
Any interchangeable camera system needs a well-stocked stable of
lenses to feel complete, and the EOS R system ticks this box with an
ever-widening range of innovative glass. As well as staples like the RF
24-70mm F2.8L IS USM (£2,329.99), RF 70-200mm F4L IS USM
(1,699.99), and RF 50mm F1.8 STM (219.99), there’s a versatile and
compact new super-telephoto zoom in the shape of the new RF
100-500mm F4.5-7.1L IS USM (£2,899.99) and RF 85mm F2
MACRO IS STM (£649.99), which does wonders for close-up work as
well as portraits. And of course you can easily mount the best in
existing EF or EF-S lenses using the EF-EOS R Mount Adapter.
