Canon EOS R8, R50, RF 24-50mm and RF-S 55-210mm
Today Canon has announced two cameras and two lenses. Starting us off is the EOS R8, borrowing features seen in the recently announced EOS R6 Mark II but housed inside of a smaller and lighter body. Next up is the EOS R50, Canon's gateway into the EOS R range, along with the RF 24-50mm and RF-S 55-210mm. Pete met with Canon's Product Specialist Mehdia Mehtal to get all the latest info and guide you through their features.

Borrowing features seen in Canon's EOS R6 Mark II, the EOS R8 gives your creativity a full-frame upgrade with this lightweight mirrorless camera that delivers superb photos and video. Enjoy better bokeh, wider angles of view, and image quality that will blow you away, even in low light.
CANON EOS R50 & RF-S 55-210mm

This do-it-all camera offers the complete stills and video package combining lightweight, compact design with a large 24.2MP APS-C sized sensor for thumb-stopping results.
