Discover the wonders that the EOS R3 can do for you.
❖
Capture your world with all the crisp details. The EOS R3 is equipped with a new approximately 24.1-megapixel back-illuminated stacked CMOS sensor combined with DIGIC X image processor for the first time, allowing for high-speed readout and high image quality with low noise.
Equipped with 5-axis in-body image stabilisation (IS), the EOS R3 suppresses blurriness caused by camera shake, increasing the possibilities for handheld shooting, low-light shooting, and long exposure shooting.
When combined with the optical image stabilizer of compatible RF lenses, up to 8 stops of image stabilisation can be achieved via Coordinated Control IS.
With a wide normal ISO speed range of 100 to 102 400 (expandable to L: 50 and H: 204 800), the EOS R3 is capable of clean low-noise images even in low-light situations.
Capture realistic still images close to the visual perception of a human eye. Images rendered in 10-bit HDR PQ have a higher dynamic range with beautiful precise gradations especially in highlights areas.
Achieve greater gradation control in your photos by using HDR PQ in combination with Auto Lighting Optimizer and Highlight Tone Priority.
When dealing with high-contrast scenes, HDR Mode allows you to capture a 3-shot HDR composite in as fast as 0.02s with exposure compensation in JPEG or HEIF format.
Besides offering richer gradations than conventional 1-shot HDR shooting, this high-speed capture helps to reduce movement between frames, making HDR handheld shooting possible.
❖
Capture explosive action in a blink of an eye.
The EOS R3 is supercharged with new and upgraded autofocusing technology engineered to take high-speed action photography to new heights. With smarter subject detection and more precise autofocusing, photographers can leave focusing and tracking to the camera, and concentrate on composition and clicking the shutter at the opportune moment.
A camera that sees and understands your world. With a new, evolved EOS iTR (Intelligent Tracking & Recognition) AF X using deep learning technology, subject detection of the EOS R3 is faster and smarter than ever.
This revolutionary new breakthrough in AF technology now allows for detection and recognition of fast-moving automobiles and motorcycles in motorsports. The EOS R3 is capable of overall detection of the vehicle and also more specific focus of the driver’s helmet using spot detection.
Subject detection precision has also been enhanced for humans.
Eye Detection AF is possible even when the subject’s face is obscured by shadow, hair, make-up or a face mask. Head detection is also possible for athletes wearing goggles or face masks during winter sports.
First introduced in the EOS R5, Animal Detection AF is also available on the EOS R3, allowing for detection and tracking of the body, face or eye of dogs, cats and birds.

Lights, camera, ready for action.
The EOS R3 offers high video image quality up to 6K and excellent focus control within one camera -- perfect for independent filmmakers and small production crew. Plus, you get convenient integration with Canon’s professional Cinema EOS system for a seamless post-production workflow.
Record in-camera 6K 60p RAW video footage for greater versatility in post-production. The rich 12-bit image data produces richer colours while the high pixel count (6000 x 3164) offers flexibility in cropping and angle correction.
Development is possible with Digital Photo Professional or Cinema RAW Development. A lower bitrate RAW (Light) file format is also available for a smaller file size to reduce file transfer time.
Capture action in slow motion in uncropped 4K UHD/DCI or Full HD using high frame rate (120 fps/100 fps).
Movie Servo AF and subject tracking is available for 4K high frame rate videos and all other video modes.
The EOS R3 records uncropped 4K UHD/DCI movies processed from rich 6K RGB data for higher image quality with less moiré and minimal colour distortion and noise.
Record 4:2:2 10-bit HDR PQ movies with higher brightness, wider tonal range and wider colour gamut for playback on HDR-compatible screens.
As minimal colour grading is necessary, time is saved on post-processing, making this especially useful for demanding environments such as news reporting.
In-Body IS in the EOS R3 helps to minimise camera movement shake by up to 5.5 stops during video recording. When paired with a compatible lens equipped with optical IS, the image stabilisation effect is increased to up to 8 stops.
Movie Digital IS also works in conjunction with Coordinated Control IS to give you added stability in your video footages.
The EOS R3 supports Canon Log 3, a staple of Canon’s Cinema EOS system that offers a wider dynamic range and precise highlights for high-contrast scenes and HDR movies.
Also compatible with Cinema Gamut for perfect integration with the professional Cinema EOS System.
A dual card slot supports one SD card and one CFexpress card (Type B), which expands your storage capacity and allows for confident 6K RAW video recording and high-speed burst shooting.
Simultaneously record identical MP4 videos to both cards as backup or record RAW video on the CFexpress and 4K MP4 on the SD card at the same time.
