The Best Sports Camera!
I bought this camera a few months ago for my high school sports photography and it has been nothing short of amazing! The eye control is fast and responsive and works very well despite what some reviews say. The 30fps shooting speed is great and very responsive. I also have an R7 which is advertised to shoot at 30fps but never seems like it does unlike the R3. The LCD i...

Amazing camera!
Wow!!!!!! Unreal to say the least: :-)
Have been shooting with Nikon for over 18 years and finally I decided to change to Canon. This camera and Lens @ 24-105 is absolutely amazing. I still have lots to learn the modes and functions but that alone keeps me more interested. Stunning pictures so far

Sports and wildlife beast
I’ve had this for a couple of weeks now and have just one minor complaint. I also have a 45 megapixel Z9 which I love and when people say 24 megapixels isn’t enough for wildlife, that’s just complete bull. It’s plenty even leaving room to crop in but you can’t be unrealistic if the bird or animal is just too far away. The sensor is beautiful and has a lot of character. ...

Canon EOS R 3
Wonderful tool. excellent auto focus, excellent dynamic range. The ability to move the AF point through out the entire frame vs DSLR, wonderful. Ability to shoot at slower shutter hand held. IBIS. Very low noise at higher ISO. Ability to view histogram live in view finder +. Price discounted recently

Best purchase I've made in a while!
I am absolutely overjoyed to have purchased the R3 and excited for the images and video I will be able to capture. Before getting the R3 I had been shooting an R6. I watched several videos on the R3 prior to purchase and thought I had a pretty good idea of what to expect. When I actually got it in my hands and began to set it up, I was amazed to discover the true cap...

The Best Camera Ever!!!!!
I've had my R3 for about 2 weeks now I can't and don't want to put it down!!!!! Best camera I've ever owned and finally my first pro body!!!!! I started getting into photography in 2009 with a Canon Rebel. I graduated to the 50D, then the 60D, to the 5D Mark II, finally followed by the 5D Mark III. I always wanted a 1D system but it was far out of my reach. When I seen ...

Superb camera
Most responsive, accurate and quickest camera I have ever owned. I will not ever need another camera as long as I have this one in my camera bag.

Great camera
Great camera. Bought it 14 months ago and have shot 1.3 million sports photos with it. The high frame rate helps get that one pic with the ball on the finger tips and the soccer ball flattened by the player's head.
Only down side is difficulty keeping the eye control auto focus turned off so I can lock in the desired focus point.

Disappointed.
Autofocus is not that good, Eye control is disappointing. Needs AI technology. EL1's hardly works due to RF interferences. I bought 3 and they all are the same.

Simply…..AWESOME !
Such an amazing camera. I’ve been shooting Canon cameras since my first SLR in 1971 — an FTb-QL that I bought in a pawn shop. I’ve progressed through MANY Canon cameras since then, but the R3 is the first new camera that has impressed me as much as this one has. The sensor is amazingly crisp and sharp; the AF options are virtually infinite, the eye-tracking is surreal; ...

Take your photos to the next level with this full frame beauty.
After having a mix of APS-C sensor bodies and full frames, it was time to take the leap. The R3 doesn't disappoint. Bigger batteries, bigger sensor (than an APS-C), bigger photos. If you want to elevate your photography and have great low light photos, the R3 is the camera for you. Go from being ordinary to extra-ordinary!

It’s trying to do too much and missing the mark in multiple areas
Had it a year now. It’s fast and when it works right it’s the best camera out there but there’s so many dumb things and issues about it. I do event photography for a major wire service. I’ve been doing it for 17yrs and never had any of the issues I have with this camera. The iso wheel moves any time the camera is on your shoulder and so when I pick it back up to shoot m...

R3 thru the of eye of a keen eye!
R3 will dominate for years to come. Legendary build it just feels oh so right in your hands like a pro camera should! All the other positive reviews are spot so I won't bore you with the highlights of this camera! So if you have the dough, shoot professionally and or want the best well then, this camera will not disappoint.

it's okay
Camera's definitely good but not as good as other mirrorless cameras for portrait photography, image quality is good but resolution is poor and price is super exaggerated.
