Last year’s Pro hardware, Wireless charging slow by modern standards, No USB-C; it’s now well overdue

The Canon EOS R8’s compact size and light weight make it very competitive in the enthusiast camera category, although the lack of adequate weatherproofing will be a disincentive to outdoor photographers.

An affordable camera that can punch above its weight in stills and 4K video.
