Choose by what matters to you
- The EOS R7 if you want every lens stabilised, or you crop or print large, or you want a backup card slot, or you shoot action in bursts, or you record video with sound, or you shoot in rain or dust, or you want more shots per charge, or you film yourself or shoot from odd angles.
- The EOS R100 if weight matters most.
The lenses each one takes
Both take the same 62 lenses on the Canon RF mount, so a lens bought for one moves to the other. The EOS R7 is usually sold with the Canon RF-S18-150mm F3.5-6.3 IS STM; the EOS R100 with the Canon RF-S18-45mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM.
