Canon EOS R10

Based on 75 comments across 4 communities
TL;DR
A favorite sub-$1000 beginner mirrorless: light, great ergonomics, and fast autofocus that punches above its class. The main reservation is Canon's thin native RF-S lens lineup, which pushes some users to other systems.

80% of 75 verified owners recommend the Canon EOS R10.

With editing, my camera photos are way better, esp for low light shots. Without editing, though... lol. My phone's photo generally looks slightly better, and I own a Samsung.

It definitely put more pixels on a distant airplane than the R6 and produced pretty good results, but I really missed the larger field of view and larger viewfinder when I was tracking and framing shots.

you can buy the Canon EOS R10. It is cheaper than the R7 and does a great job. I am using it with Tamron 150-600 G1 and Canon 400 5.6L (paired with a 1.4 TC). It works great.

I personally would never get a crop camera just because you’ll be sorta handicapped when it comes to lens choice

The link to the Canon phone app is a pain and doesn’t work consistently.

I’m still using my starter Canon EOS R10, first camera I’ve ever owned. I don’t have the money for more expensive lenses unfortunately but I’m still happy with it!

Honestly, a good beginner camera to pick up but where it lacks is the availability of lenses if you decide to get one in the future.

I was in the same boat and recently bought Canon EOS R10 and it is perfect for me. It has great ergonomics, excellent autofocus and for a beginner camera, lots of manuel control options in my opinion.

I bought a Canon EOS R10 a little over a year ago, switched to a Sony A7 III a few months ago due to lack of available lenses.

The canon app still has connection issues and is a battery drain.

the ergonomics for me were a deal breaker

I run the living hell out of my Canon EOS R10. Despite it not being weather sealed, I will still use it in rain but with a towel on top of the camera

It’s pretty amazing that the iphone picked it up which even my Canon EOS R10 struggled to do.

The Canon EOS R10 has been my go-to camera, and I absolutely recommend it. It’s super beginner-friendly yet doesn’t skimp on the pro features.

I'm currently using the Canon EOS r10 with the rf 100-400 lens and I freaking love it! This is my hiking/striking running/gunning kit.

Tenho uma Canon EOS R10 e adoro. É a minha primeira máquina "a sério" e tem sido relativamente simples de obter resultados decentes.

Absolutely no regrets, I went from a canon 1300D to a canon EOS R10 and my photography has been taken to the next level

I am a total beginner, and I bought a Canon EOS R10 this year. I like it, but I have nothing to compare to!!
