Reimagining and redefining professional mirrorless, Canon’s EOR R5 awarded by international photography journalists
Redefining mirrorless with the EOS R5, Canon picked up the prestigious EISA Camera Innovation Award. In addition to this, the Canon EOS-1D X Mark III earned itself the EISA Professional Camera Award, enhancing its reputation as a fiercely sought-after imaging powerhouse amongst professional photographers worldwide, while the widely regarded EOS 90D took home the EISA APS-C Camera Award.

Every product demonstrates Canon’s continued support for both DSLR and mirrorless systems, offering photographers and filmmakers a competitive, full-choice line-up that makes the ‘impossible’, possible.
