Ahead of the Game

The Canon EOS R1 is our top-of-the-line full-frame professional camera that is a powerhouse for professionals working in fast action situations, carrying on the legacy of the Canon EOS-1D X Mark III digital SLR camera. The 1-series has a long tradition of providing excellent AF performance, speed, durability and reliability, all areas the EOS R1 excels in, but there is so much more including new faster processing, state-of-the-art video features, and networking options that really make this 1-series camera the ONE everyone has been waiting for.

New Back-Illuminated Stacked Sensor

The sensor design of the EOS R1 is all new, and all Canon. This new 24.2MP back-illuminated, stacked CMOS image sensor is the heart of the EOS R1. Balancing the needs of high-speed shooting and high-image quality imagery, this sensor provides enough pixels for poster sized prints, while also providing incredibly fast sensor read-out speeds, and enhancing low-light performance.

Cross Type AF

The CMOS image sensor in the EOS R1 is Canon's first to support cross-type line detection autofocus. Unique to the EOS R1's Dual Pixel Intelligent AF image sensor, a portion of the photodiode has been rotated at 90 degrees, which when combined with the traditional array of photodiodes provides cross-type AF for extremely accurate horizontal and vertical line detection focusing which works even during tracking with up to 100% area coverage. This new support improves subject discrimination accuracy enabling the camera to tenaciously autofocus on the desired subject even when there are many horizontal lines. Detection is improved when focusing on small size subjects, in situations when there are objects close and far away from focus within the AF frame, or when the subject is low contrast. This provides reliable subject distance measurement performance by reducing the influence of patterns and obstructions.

Get Accelerated

The DIGIC Accelerator is a completely new image processor, developed by Canon to supplement the powerful DIGIC X image processor. The DIGIC Accelerator handles the processing that makes many of the new features of the EOS R1 camera possible, allowing the DIGIC X image processor to focus solely on image processing. Together they combine for high-precision focusing, with incredible speed at high-image quality.

Faster Readout Speed

The faster readout speed of the back illuminated and stacked full-frame CMOS image sensor in the EOS R1 has reduced the rolling shutter distortion substantially. This level of rolling shutter distortion performance is nearly equivalent to the mechanical shutter of the EOS-1D X Mark III camera. The sensor read-out is so fast that it has virtually eliminated Electronic shutter rolling shutter distortion issues.

Dual Pixel Intelligent AF

Autofocus is on a whole new level with the EOS R1. New Dual Pixel Intelligent AF subject tracking allows you to maintain focus on a moving subject even when they are obscured briefly while shooting. And, for even faster positioning of your active AF Area, the EOS R1 adds Canon's Eye Control AF - which is improved compared to the Eye Control AF system in the EOS R3 camera. Once you calibrate the viewfinder to your eye, just look where you want to focus, and the AF Area will move there when you press the AF activation button. This new system is even robust enough for many users to work when the photographer is wearing glasses. Many users will find that this is the fastest and most effortless way to move your autofocus point.
