Canon Digital Cameras

Canon EOS 2000D:
One of Canon’s most basic DSLRs, designed for novice users. The four-digit name indicates this is a beginner camera.

Canon EOS 250D:
This camera has been designed for relative beginners, but with a slightly more advanced feature set allowing for more precise creative control. 

Canon EOS 90D:
An intermediate camera designed for photo enthusiasts. The EOS 90D has more megapixels and more effective stabilisation than the cheaper models.

Canon EOS 5D Mark IV:
Single-numeral cameras are part of Canon’s professional range. They have full-frame sensors which produce higher-quality images, especially in low light. This particular camera is the fourth to bear the “5D” name, hence “Mark IV”.

Canon EOS R cameras

The Canon EOS R series is probably the future of the Canon brand. It’s the professional mirrorless series of full-frame cameras, and it’s where some of the most exciting developments in camera technology are happening.

Class-leading cameras like the Canon EOS R5, and the most recent release - EOS R3 can shoot 8K and 6k video and capture stills at up to 20fps and 30fps respectively. With class-leading autofocus, a long-life battery and super-fast burst speeds, this is the top standard for professional photography.  

There are also EOS R cameras geared more towards enthusiasts, such as the Canon EOS RP, which still boasts an impressive feature-set and a stunning full-frame sensor.

Canon EOS R cameras use the Canon RF lens mount, which uses a 12-pin connection to enable lightning-fast communication between camera and lens. However, the Canon EF-EOS R adapter makes it possible to use almost all EF-mount lenses on EOS R cameras with no loss of functionality.

Canon EOS M cameras

The Canon EOS M series are mirrorless cameras designed more for beginners and intermediate photographers. They use APS-C sensors, which enables the camera bodies to be smaller and more portable – perfect for travel.

Cameras like the Canon EOS M50 Mark II are capable of capturing stunning images and cinematic 4K video, while also sporting 5-axis image stabilisation. More advanced users may also consider the Canon EOS M6 Mark II, which is capable of 30fps RAW burst shooting.

Canon EOS M cameras use EF-M lenses. It is possible to use EF and EF-s lenses as well using the EF-EOS M adapter.

Canon PowerShot compact cameras

The Canon PowerShot compact series is actually quite broad and covers quite a range of cameras. Here are a few of the key players:

Canon PowerShot SX70 HS: The cameras designated “SX” have one thing in common – big zoom lenses! Also known as bridge cameras, these superzoom compacts are great for travel.

Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III: The G7 X series have hugely grown in popularity among YouTubers, as they produce fantastic 4K video and can livestream.

Canon PowerShot G1 X Mark III: Most compact cameras use 1-inch sensors, however the Canon PowerShot G1 X Mark III sets itself apart with a sophisticated APS-C sensor. It’s a fantastic compact for serious enthusiasts.

Canon IXUS compact cameras

Canon IXUS cameras are the simplest and most affordable cameras in the entire Canon stable. If you simply need a basic camera that works, the Canon IXUS 285 HS will fit the bill perfectly. You won’t get fancy features like 4K video, but it will get the job done, and the price is right.
