Canon EOS R8 Review: An Annoyingly Good Camera

Canon EOS R8 Review: An Annoyingly Good Camera

The Phoblographer

“Wait, they don’t even sell it as a kit with some L-glass?” I asked my friend on the phone when I got the Canon EOS R8 in for review. And so, I tried to figure out what lenses to test it with. When I mounted the 100-400mm onto it, I didn’t expect the Canon EOS R8 to have better performance than the Canon EOS R5 in some ways. And I absolutely didn’t expect it to do well with a lens like the 100-400mm – which I otherwise consider to be, candidly speaking, garbage. But a few minutes of testing it, and I was making faces filled with surprise. I know that I didn’t have high expectations for the Canon EOS R8 when I originally wrote about it. But I didn’t expect something at this end of Canon’s camera lineup to outperform a bunch of other cameras on the market.
