Canon EOS R10 Content Creator Kit – Mirrorless Vlogging Camera, 24.2 MP, 4K Video, DIGIC X Image Processor, RF-S18-45mm F4.5-6.3 is STM Lens – Stereo Microphone, Tripod Grip, Wireless Remote Control

Camera bought in February 2023. I was actually contemplating the move to mirrorless for some time then (from trusty old 50D supplementing 5Dm2) and was evaluating whether I should get The R7 (which several people were discouraging me against) or R10. Eventually I settled for R10 reasoning it would be pretty much a stop-gap before I decide it is wirth to get a mirrorless FF camera. Boy, I was in for a surprise! Despite its price, the camera doesn’t feel cheap in any way. Sure, it may not have weather sealing, nickel-alloy body, two card slots and a battery, that can be treated seriously, but what it offers is worth every penny. And it offers A LOT. For starters 12 fps burst rate with UHS-II compatible card slot when used wisely will let you forget there’s actually buffer limit. And image quality is more than decent – maybe not perfect, but for the price you get a proven sensor, latest imaging processor and very fine focusing and subject tracking. In fact fine enough to ditch my DSLRs and use the camera for almost a full year. With RF 18-150 lens it weights barely over 1 kg. It has wireless connectivity out of the box and works excellent with remote control software. Also it can operate and charge from an USB power bank – and that alone makes that tiny battery far less of a burden to the point you actually stop caring. I also got it with EF mount ring which made the transition even smoother. Needless to say, it works perfect with every EF/EF-S lens I had. What I don’t like: – RF-S lenses move vignetting to almost an artistic level. Sure, you can fix it in postprocessing – especially when you’re shooting RAW mainly, but that requires lens definitions/references and they’re NOT perfect as of yet (even Canon’s own DPP software can get illumination correction VERY wrong); – the flash is a nice addition, but what R10 has is bare minimum and, as with many new Canon cameras, third-party lamps are pretty much hit-or-miss; – the camera is in general very responsive, but it does have a noticeable shutter lag and digital shutter is usable for static shots mostly – sensor readout is just too slow.
