What to pick first for the EOS R10

Amazon offers a free 30-day Prime trial, with free delivery on eligible items.

  1. Everyday and travel

    Canon RF-S18-45mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM

    29–72 mm equivalent in one lens · 559 g with the camera · 49 mm filter

    From 29 to 72 mm equivalent it goes from a room to a head-and-shoulders portrait, so it can stay on the camera. At f/4.5 it gathers about a sixth of the light of an f/1.8 prime, so indoors and at dusk it needs a slower shutter or a higher ISO; its stabilisation steadies the camera, not a moving subject.

  2. People and portraits

    Sigma 56mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary

    frames like 90 mm at f/1.4 · 719 g with the camera · 55 mm filter

    With the camera upright, head and shoulders (about 60 cm) fill the frame from about 1.5 m; at f/1.4 and that distance only about 3.5 cm of depth is sharp. From 3 m back it takes in a scene only 1.2 m wide: one or two people, not a family round a table, which needs a zoom's wide end.

    Check price

  3. Wide scenes and rooms

    Canon RF-S10-18mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM

    starts at 16 mm equivalent · 579 g with the camera · 49 mm filter

    From 3 m back it takes in a scene about 6.7 m wide, for rooms, buildings and landscapes. Shapes near the edges of so wide a view look stretched, so it is not the lens for faces close up.

    Check price

  4. Distant subjects

    Canon RF-S55-210mm F5-7.1 IS STM

    reaches 336 mm equivalent · 699 g with the camera · 55 mm filter

    At 336 mm equivalent a subject 20 m away sits in a frame about 2.1 × 1.4 m. At that end it is f/7.1, so fast action needs good light; its stabilisation steadies the view, not a moving subject.

    Check price

  5. Close-up and macro

    Canon RF100mm F2.8 L MACRO IS USM

    1.4x magnification, focuses to 26 cm · 1,159 g with the camera · 67 mm filter

    At 1.4x a subject about 1.6 cm wide fills the frame. At that size f/8 keeps only about 0.4 mm sharp, so a support helps, and the front of the lens is at most about 9.2 cm from the subject (less if the lens grows longer as it focuses or zooms).

    Check price

  6. Low light

    Sigma 23mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary

    f/1.4, frames like 37 mm · 774 g with the camera · 52 mm filter

    At f/1.4 it gathers about 10 times the light of the RF-S18-45mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM kit lens at its wide end, so indoors the shutter can stay faster or the ISO lower. It does not zoom, and close up the sharp zone is thin: about 21 cm at 1.5 m wide open. Neither it nor the camera is stabilised, so handheld it needs a faster shutter speed, a support or more light.

How these picks are made
  • Everyday and travel: a zoom from about 28 mm to at least 70 mm equivalent, lightest first.
  • People and portraits: the brightest prime framing like 70–135 mm that weighs under 300 g.
  • Wide scenes and rooms: the widest zoom under 600 g, lightest on a tie.
  • Distant subjects: reach of at least 300 mm equivalent under 1.5 kg, longest reach per gram.
  • Close-up and macro: life-size (1x) or more, lightest first; otherwise the highest magnification.
  • Low light: f/1.4 or brighter framing like 35–60 mm, lightest first.

Picked by the numbers, not by a review, and no pick is paid for. Each note works out the frame width and depth of field the same way our calculators do.

38 manual-focus lenses for the EOS R10

They mount directly, and you focus by hand. The camera sees no lens attached, so turn on its “Release shutter w/o lens” setting first. The weight adds the lens to the EOS R10 with battery and card.

Shooting with a manual lens

Memory card and battery for the EOS R10

What to buy with it, and what to do in the first hour.

Memory card

One SD card slot (UHS-II). Any SDXC card works for photos; a UHS-II card clears long bursts faster, and a UHS-I card still works at UHS-I speed. For 4K video, the card's speed class has to keep up with the recording mode; Canon's manual lists the class (V30, V60 or V90) each mode needs.

Battery

LP-E17: about 430 shots using the screen, 260 using the viewfinder per charge by the CIPA test. It charges inside the camera over USB-C while the camera is switched off. A spare weighs 45 g (Canon's figure). Two batteries give about twice the CIPA figure; video and cold weather shorten every charge.

LP-E17 spare battery on AmazonUHS-II V30 card on Amazon

The first hour

  1. Charge the LP-E17 fully before the first outing (in the camera over USB-C, or in a charger).
  2. Insert the card, then format it in the camera: Menu, then the card or set-up tab, then Format. Copy anything on it first; formatting erases it.
  3. Set the language, date and time; the date goes into every photo's file.
  4. Fit the lens: line up the mount marks, turn until it clicks. Release by pressing the lens button.
  5. Check the firmware. Canon's latest for the EOS R10 is version 1.8.0, published 14 May 2026 (as of 4 Nov 2026). The camera shows its own under “Firmware” in its set-up menu; if yours is older, update it from Canon's page
  6. Take a test shot and play it back before you set off.

EOS R10 lens questions

Can I use full-frame lenses on the EOS R10?

Yes. 47 of the 68 lenses here are made for full-frame Canon RF cameras and mount directly on the EOS R10. On this APS-C sensor they frame 1.6 times tighter than their focal length: a 50 mm lens frames like 80 mm.

Can I use my old Canon EF or EF-S lenses on the EOS R10?

Yes, with one of Canon's EF-EOS R mount adapters. Canon's own chart lists EF and EF-S lenses as compatible through it: autofocus and image stabilisation keep working, and the plain adapter adds 110 g and 24 mm. What the EF to RF adapter keeps

Do RF-S lenses also work on full-frame Canon RF cameras?

Yes. Canon's full-frame EOS R bodies accept RF-S lenses and switch to an APS-C crop automatically, so the lens keeps working if you move up to full frame later.

Which memory card does the EOS R10 take?

One slot: SD, UHS-II. For 4K video, the card's speed class has to keep up with the recording mode; Canon's manual lists the class (V30, V60 or V90) each mode needs.

Does the EOS R10 charge over USB?

Yes. The LP-E17 charges inside the camera over USB-C while the camera is off.

Does the EOS R10 have in-body image stabilisation?

No. Stabilisation comes from the lens: 40 of the 68 lenses here have it.
