Canon EOS R7 + RF-S 18-150mm IS STM

32.5MP APS-C Camera with 8-Stop Stabilisation

Overview

The Canon EOS R7 is the fast APS-C body of the RF system: 32.5 megapixels, up to eight stops of in-body stabilisation and a 1.6x crop factor that turns every telephoto into a longer one. Supplied here with the RF-S 18-150mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM, a single lens covering 29-240mm equivalent.

Key features

Sensor and processing

• 32.5MP APS-C CMOS sensor: 22.3 x 14.8 mm, the highest resolution Canon has put on an APS-C sensor.
• DIGIC X processor, the same family as the full-frame professional bodies.
• ISO 100-32000, expandable to H (51200).

Stabilisation and speed

• Up to 8 stops of in-body stabilisation depending on the lens; 7 stops with the RF-S 18-150mm supplied here.
• Mechanical shutter to 1/8000 s and electronic to 1/16000 s.

Autofocus

• Dual Pixel CMOS AF II: 100% coverage horizontally and vertically in automatic selection, with 651 zones and 5915 focusing positions for stills.
• Subject tracking: humans (eyes, face, head, body), animals (dogs, cats and birds) and vehicles (racing cars and motorcycles).
• Works down to EV -5.

Viewing

• 0.39in OLED viewfinder: 2.36 million dots, approx. 100% coverage and 1.15x magnification — unusually large for APS-C.
• Anti-flicker shooting: detects 100 Hz and 120 Hz lighting.

Specifications

• Sensor: approx. 22.3 x 14.8 mm (APS-C) CMOS
• Effective pixels: 32.5MP (34.4MP total)
• Processor: DIGIC X
• Mount: Canon RF, natively supporting RF and RF-S lenses
• Focal length factor: 1.6x
• Stabilisation: sensor shift, up to 8 stops depending on the lens
• Autofocus: Dual Pixel CMOS AF II, 651 zones / 5915 positions (stills)
• AF working range: EV -5 to 20 (23 °C, ISO 100)
• Sensitivity: ISO 100-32000, expandable to H (51200)
• Shutter: mechanical 30-1/8000 s and bulb; electronic 30-1/16000 s
• Metering: 384-zone; EV -2 to 20
• Viewfinder: 0.39in OLED, 2.36 million dots, approx. 100%, approx. 1.15x, eyepoint approx. 22 mm
• Exposure compensation: +/-3 EV in 1/3 or 1/2 stop increments

Included lens: RF-S 18-150mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM

• 29-240mm equivalent: 17 elements in 13 groups, with one UD and two aspherical elements.
• Optical stabilisation worth 4.5 stops, or 7 stops combined with the body.
• 0.17 m closest focus at 18mm and 0.36x magnification at 35mm; 55 mm filter thread.

What it is good for

• Wildlife and sport: the 1.6x crop makes a 400mm behave like a 640mm, and the stabilisation holds it steady.
• Travel with one lens: 29-240mm equivalent covers almost everything.
• Anyone moving up from an EOS DSLR: the resolution and autofocus of a much more expensive body, in APS-C.
