What to Know About the New Canon EOS R3

I recently had the chance to take the upcoming Canon EOS R3 on a couple of jobs and I’m excited to share my experiences with you.
For those who don’t know, the R3 is sort of a hybrid between the mirrorless R5 and the more sports-oriented DSLR, 1D X Mark III. Sports shooters are going to love having the DSLR functionality in a mirrorless camera. It’s a bit lighter too, which makes it less tiring to get those great action shots. Being a hybrid between the 1D X and the R5 brings some tradeoffs. The camera is meant for sports shooting. It’s meant to be fast so you can keep up with whatever action you’re shooting. Because of that, it’s limited to a 24-megapixel image. That’s more than the 1D X, but less than the R5.
Another big upgrade over the 1D X is the electronic shutter, which can shoot at 30 frames per second. In addition to the extra speed, the suppression on the rolling shutter is four times better than in the 1D X. So the shutter drag you’re used to on the 1D X, particularly in low light, is no longer a problem with the R3. You’ll hardly notice any shutter distortion at all. The mechanical shutter shoots at 12.
