Answering the demand for enhanced mobile editing of RAW image files, Canon is also announcing a new application, Digital Photo Professional Express (DPP Express). In combination with an updated Canon Camera Connect App, DPP Express enables users to send, view, edit and process CR3 RAW files on their iPad. A free download of the app will be available October 2018.
There is nothing about this system that screams must have. It feels like a very mixed bag and somewhat half baked.
They have good marketing though. Nikon was a lesson is how not to market the right things.
They have dumbed down the fuck out of this camera...., Functions they are touting about, can only be done in very limited settings. If anyone wants to know, you suffer the same as I did, go watch the Jared Polin video. I will get one thing, touting -6EV, thats only come with one lens, 50mm 1.2.
at the minimum you're gonna need a V60 SDXC card.
i don't think I've seen any UHS-I V60 cards.
Though Canon has DUMB down the FPS with this camera. Having it for stills will be good as well. It does 8fps, but in Servo mode it only does 5fps. But using the UHS-II gives it a bigger buffer flow. Allowing about 40 or so RAW images before having to wait, but thats with 5fps in Servo mode.
Don't use auto mode. Problem solved. Stick with shutter/aperture priority or manual.

Their 4k records at 480mbps or 60MB/sec.

I've shot exactly zero minutes of video using my camera in the entire time I've used it and not looking likely to change that anytime soon. I very rarely use burst mode since I mostly do landscapes. Still need UHS-II card?

I think this was rushed... they should've held off and brought out something (later) that's NOT dumbed down... but then again, maybe that's just Canon's way

its Canons way
the rumors originally called for 2 full frame mirrorless cams.
a lower end followed by a higher end model approx 6 months after the release of the low end.
For the specs this would make sense. The EOS R is more of a 6D mk II.

in that context no.
UHS-II slots are backwards compatible with UHS-I cards.
In the EOS R you can actually turn off the UHS-II feature
I went to buy a XQD card last Friday...and the Canon was rep was standing all by his lonesome at a counter with about 4 EOS R bodies and lenses for people to play with....except nobody cared. I went over for a second. The 50mm 1.2 is HUGE and Heavy....the specs of the camera are shit...I've heard rumor that pre-sales are in the shitter for this thing.

FULL FRAME FOR THE MASSES! CANON INTRODUCES ITS SECOND FULL-FRAME MIRRORLESS CAMERA – THE EOS RP
New Super-Compact and Ultra-Lightweight EOS RP is Ideal for Users Looking to Graduate to Full-Frame Mirrorless Camera at an Affordable Price
MELVILLE, N.Y., February 13, 2019 – Responding to the demand from amateur and advanced amateur photographers for an entry-level, full-frame mirrorless camera, Canon U.S.A. Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, today announced the second camera in the EOS R lineup, the EOS RP. The EOS RP is designed for photographers looking to step up from Canon’s APS-C cameras: the EOS Rebel, EOS M and the EOS 80D, into the world of full-frame mirrorless photography. Weighing in at just 17.29 ounces, the EOS RP camera is lighter than a 500ml bottle of water and smaller than Canon’s popular APS-C DSLR camera, the Canon EOS Rebel T7i, coming in at approximately 5.0in (w) x 3.77in (h) x 2.36in (d). With optics at its core, the EOS RP takes full advantage of the complete line up of RF lenses and is compatible with the existing collection of Canon’s EF and EF-S lenses with the use of one of three optional RF EOS-R Mount Adapters .
“As Canon continues to evolve its full-frame mirrorless cameras, our goal is that one day the EOS R line becomes as widely popular as our celebrated lineup of EOS DSLR cameras,” said Kazuto Ogawa, president and chief operating officer, Canon U.S.A., Inc. “As a company, we believe that in order for us to accomplish that goal, Canon needs to develop full-frame mirrorless cameras for every skill level of photographers and that starts with amateurs and advanced amateurs. This makes the EOS RP the perfect addition to the existing lineup.”
The new Canon EOS RP full-frame mirrorless camera features a 26.2 megapixel CMOS sensor that is powered by the company’s DIGIC 8 image processor, providing users with high-image quality, outstanding operation and functionality. The new Canon EOS RP features Dual Pixel CMOS Auto Focus (AF) with 4,779 manually selectable AF points and a wide AF coverage area of 88 percent horizontal and 100 percent vertical. With f/1.2 lenses, the camera astonishingly boasts AF sensitivity in low light in as little as Exposure Value (EV) -5. When using the RF 24-105mm F4 L IS USM lens with the EOS RP, the camera can focus in as little as 0.05 seconds with Dual Pixel CMOS AF . When using eye detection AF, the camera can automatically detect faces and focus on the eye of the subject. This feature is supported when the camera is set in either servo AF mode during continuous shooting and movie servo AF, as well as one-shot AF.
Like the EOS R full-frame mirrorless camera that was announced in September 2018, the EOS RP is built around the same 54mm mount diameter and short-back focus. This allows for the use of one of three optional mount adapters for full compatibility with all existing EF, EF-S, TS-E and MP-E lenses. Through the use of the optional Drop-In Filter Mount Adapter or Control Ring Mount Adapter, these lenses, in fact, gain functionality.
For photographers looking to further expand their abilities and capture a wide variety of both still and video images, the EOS RP features Visual Guide mode. First introduced with the EOS Rebel T7i and EOS 77D, this mode allows users to see on screen how switching modes on the mode dial or tweaking settings can alter the image they are about to capture. This mode helps to guide photographers to capture more compelling images, such as ones with a shallow depth-of-field or being able to give moving subjects a frozen or flowing look. For those looking to expand their imaginative options, the camera also features Creative Assist mode that allows photographers to use new and unique visual effects and adjustments when shooting, such as brightness, contrast, saturation, color tone, monochrome and background blur. In addition, the design, ergonomics, layout and ease-of-use of the camera are very similar to that of other Canon cameras consumers might already be familiar with.
Additional noteworthy features of the EOS RP camera include:
Built-in 0.39 inch, 2.36 million dot Electronic Viewfinder with Touch-and-Drag AF
Vari-Angle LCD touchscreen
4K UHD 24P/Full HD 60p video recording with 4K time-lapse shooting and the ability to extract still images from 4K video recordings
ISO range of 100-25,600 that is expandable up to ISO of 102,400
Built-in Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth® technology
Mobile RAW workflow supported paired with Digital Photo Professional Express App
Availability and Pricing
The Canon EOS RP full-frame mirrorless camera is scheduled to be available in March 2019 for an estimated retail price of $1299.00 for the body only. It will also be sold as a body-and-lens kit with the RF 24-105mm F4 L IS USM lens for $2399.00*

Just got my EOS RP the other day. I LOVE the size and features. I was debating on getting the 6D Mark II or 5D Mark IV. Decided on the RP. Has some features I liked that the others did(touch screen focus, more focus points, wireless transfer and others). Did not get any of the RF lenses. The cheapest they have now is the 35mm that cost $400. Paired it with my Canon 85mm f/1.8. Photos are crazy sharp to me.
