This is a preview of the Canon EOS R1 Flagship Camera. Canon calls this a flagship, but it’s hard to call it that when it’s more of an update to the R3. Now that doesn’t mean it’s a bad thing, it just means it’s not as “flagship” spec wise as many were expecting. I had a chance to preview the camera for a few hours on a press trip in Phoenix Arizona.

When you compare the specs of the Nikon Z9, Sony a1, Sony a9 III to the R1, there’s good and there’s not so good. I point everything out in this video. I will tell you it has the greatest Auto Focus in the history of auto focus. But does it fall short of what a flagship has been in the past?
