The Canon EOS R8 Mark II is a compact full-frame mirrorless camera built around a 24.2-megapixel CMOS sensor and the DIGIC X image processor. It pairs 5-axis in-body image stabilization with Dual Pixel CMOS AF II subject detection, 40 fps electronic shutter bursts, and 10-bit 4K 60p video oversampled from 6K, all in a travel-ready body that weighs 546 g (19.3 oz) with battery and card. It suits photographers stepping into the full-frame Canon EOS R system and creators who want one body for stills and video.
As one of the full-frame digital mirrorless cameras in the EOS R series, the R8 Mark II uses the Canon RF mount. It works natively with Canon RF and RF-S lenses and accepts Canon EF, EF-S, and TS-E lenses through the optional Mount Adapter EF-EOS R, so EF glass carries straight into Canon cameras built on the RF system.
The sensor offers a standard ISO range of 100 to 102,400 for stills, expandable to ISO 50 through 204,800. The body carries a 3.0-inch vari-angle touchscreen, a 0.39-inch OLED electronic viewfinder, and a multi-controller joystick for moving the AF point without taking your eye from the finder.
Dual Pixel CMOS AF II covers approximately 100% of the frame with up to 1,053 AF zones and focuses in light as low as EV -7.5 (with an f/1.2 lens). Subject detection recognizes people, animals (dogs, cats, birds, and horses), and vehicles (motorsports cars and motorcycles, aircraft, and trains). Eye detection and Register People Priority (up to ten people) keep the camera on the subjects you care about at a wedding or school event.
The 5-axis in-body stabilizer works with optically stabilized lenses through Coordinated Control, reaching up to 7.5 stops of correction at the image center and 7.0 stops at the periphery (CIPA testing with the RF24-105mm F2.8 L IS USM Z). Peripheral Coordinated Control targets edge blur on wide-angle lenses.
The electronic shutter fires at up to 40 fps for up to 73 RAW or 190 JPEG frames in a burst, and reaches 1/16,000 sec in Fv, Tv, and M modes. Electronic first-curtain mode shoots at up to 6 fps for 1,000 or more frames and syncs at up to 1/200 sec, so the camera pairs well with flashes and accessories from the Canon Speedlite lineup.
The R8 Mark II records uncropped 4K UHD at up to 59.94 fps, oversampled from 6K, along with uncropped Full HD at up to 179.8 fps. Recording formats include XF-HEVC S and XF-AVC S. Canon Log 3 provides approximately 14 stops of dynamic range for grading, with HLG and PQ available for HDR delivery. Clips below 100 fps can run up to six hours.
Solo shooters get 3 or 5 seconds of pre-recording, time code, zebra and false color displays, and a tally lamp. A 3.5mm input accepts external microphones, the multi-function shoe supports the Canon DM-E1D stereo microphone, and a headphone jack handles monitoring.
First-time full-frame shooters can start in Scene Intelligent Auto with Creative Assist or choose from 14 SCN modes. Sixteen color filters, including Positive Filmtone and Negative Filmtone, apply a finished look to stills and video. Experienced photographers get Flexible-priority AE, three custom modes, and in-camera focus bracketing.
Travel and street photographers appreciate a full-frame body that fits easily in a compact camera bag. IBIS keeps slower handheld shutter speeds usable in museums and evening streets.
Wildlife and youth sports photographers use the 40 fps burst, pre-continuous shooting, and subject detection to catch a bird taking off or a runner crossing the line. Landscape and architecture photographers pair the camera with sturdy tripods and heads for focus bracketing and time-lapse sequences.
Content creators, vloggers, and hybrid shooters rely on 10-bit 4K, Canon Log 3, the vari-angle screen, and USB-C streaming to cover videos, livestreams, and stills with one camera.
Yes. Canon EF, EF-S, and TS-E lenses mount through the optional Mount Adapter EF-EOS R, while RF and RF-S lenses mount directly. That lets you keep using the EF lenses you already own as you add RF lenses.
The single slot takes SD, SDHC, and SDXC cards, including UHS-II. Canon lists a UHS Speed Class 3 (U3) card as the minimum for most 4K and Full HD recording formats, and a Video Speed Class 60 (V60) card for 4K at 59.94 fps in XF-AVC S 10-bit 4:2:2. A fast UHS-II card from our memory cards selection also clears bursts from the buffer more quickly.
Canon rates the included LP-E17 at approximately 340 shots per charge with the LCD screen or 220 with the viewfinder (Power Saving mode, CIPA standard), and approximately 40 minutes of 4K 59.94 fps recording. It charges in camera over USB-C with the Canon PD-E2 or PD-E1 adapter, and spare packs are available in our batteries and power adapters section.
With the electronic shutter and High Speed Continuous+ drive selected, the camera keeps the 20 frames (about 0.5 seconds) captured just before the shutter button is fully pressed, in RAW, C-RAW, JPEG, or HEIF. It is ideal for birds in flight or a batter's swing.
Yes. Connected over USB-C, the camera streams as a standard UVC/UAC device at 4K 30 or 60 fps or Full HD 30 or 60 fps, with USB Power Delivery supported. It can also stream over HDMI or through the Canon Camera Connect and Live Switcher Mobile apps.
Yes. Movie Digital IS adds 5-axis digital stabilization at the sensor, and with an optically stabilized lens the camera coordinates Movie Digital IS, IBIS, and lens IS together for smooth handheld footage.
The Canon EOS R8 Mark II puts full-frame stills and 10-bit 4K video in a body small enough to carry every day. Since 1976, Samy's Camera has helped photographers build kits around the way they shoot.
