Conclusion: Advantages of the EOS R are the larger sensor, built-in automatic sensor cleaning and the higher resolution. Additional pros for the Canon are that the camera is faster, the faster and more accurate auto focus and the larger sensitivity. We also like the better viewfinder, the larger selection of lenses and that the display has a higher resolution. A nice touch is the articulated display, the rather comfortable touch screen and the superior video recording. A recommendation of the EOS R is made easy by the connector for an external microphone, that the battery has more stamina and the more compact size. Finally, there’s the the built-in wifi that permits remote shooting and image transfer without the need for a cable connection.

The EOS R scores 49 points.
