COMPARE THE EOS R3 vs EOS R5

Compare the EOS R3 and EOS R5 with this handy guide. Both were created to keep photographers and videographers ahead of their competition, elevating creativity, output and quality. Both are at the top of the market, with the EOS R3 delivering explosive speed and the EOS R5 offering high resolution stills and video. Dive into the detail with our Canon EOS R3 vs EOS R5 comparison guide.

Canon EOS R3 vs EOS R5 Summary

Here we summarise the Canon EOS R5 vs Canon EOS R3. Both the EOS R3 and EOS R5 are professional cameras with best-in-class capabilities. Your decision is down to priority. The EOS R5 is all about the detail in a smaller form factor. 45 megapixels is perfect for printing your photos, while 8K video and VR capabilities deliver professional video for content creators and videographers. It excels at portrait, wedding and travel photography. Meanwhile the EOS R3 is a little larger which makes it easier to handle, and comes with a vertical grip, a built-in ethernet port, an autofocus smart controller and has better battery life. It is super-fast, delivering speeds of 1/64,000s and continuous shooting speeds of 30 fps. It also has a special 195 fps burst mode for those most fleeting moments. The camera has a faster sensor readout and can deliver files to servers very fast, allowing editors in the office to use the images as and when they please. It is a must-have for action, sports and reportage. Both cameras can tackle low light, however the higher max ISO and exposure value mean that the EOS R3 can focus in the light conditions created by a starry night.
