EOS RP, a review. Part 1: the good.
Mirrorless are the next big thing in photography; Canon eventually took notice and launched this entry-level mirrorless in 2019. This is the first half, on budget and design.
Mirrorless cameras are the latest trend in photography, among those who are not satisfied with a photo taken from their mobile phone, but want a “real” photo: the photographers.
The audience that uses mirrorless cameras is varied and wider than the reflex one: it ranges from the usual casuals that film their children, to tech-enthusiasts obsessed with official technical specifications, to traditional-professional-photographers-of-village, passing through filmmakers with gangsta style and obviously Vloggers of various kinds.
A short Youtube search for “EOS RP review” will show you this variegated landscape.
The writer is halfway between the tech-enthusiast and the purist-masochist SIGMA photographer… I have old film photography basics, but currently I’m halfway between the hype for the megapixel race, and automatic mirrorless, and the Japanese lure of Foveon 1:1:1 sensors.
