Canon EOS R8 body Starter Kit (inc extra battery, 64GB SD card & Bag)
This bundle includes the Canon EOS R8 body, the Canon LP-E17 battery, the Peter Hadley Tokio 300 camera bag and a Transcend 64GB SDXC memory card.
Canon EOS R8 body
The Canon EOS R8 is a very lightweight full frame system camera with features of the Canon EOS R3 and Canon EOS R6 mark II, namely Dual Pixel CMOS AF II, 4K video in 60fps, 40fps when shooting and 24.2 megapixels.
Photography
The Canon EOS R8 is great for photography thanks to its 24.2 megapixel full frame sensor. This camera features a faster readout on the sensor, so you as an image maker will have less trouble with rolling shutter. If you like to capture the action, the 30fps RAW burst mode of the EOS R6 mark II will help you on your way. In addition, you also have a preroll setting, where it takes half a second, 15 frames, before you click the shutter. These photos are shot in both JPG and RAW. So you never miss the spontaneous moment again.
Besides the RAW burst mode, the R8 has more cool photo features, namely focus bracketing and multiple exposure. The camera also has several shooting modes that let you get to work creating close-ups, HDR images and panoramas. This option is ideal if you get excited about capturing landscapes, cities or just the small details of the macro world.
Video
In addition to the R8's photography capabilities, there are also many fine video specifications. For example, the Canon EOS R8 lets you get started in 4K resolution at a whopping 60fps, oversampled from 6K. This means that the sensor stores even more information, making your shots even sharper and more detailed. Besides the 4K capability, you can also record images in Full HD at 180 frames per second. These specifications make for nice slow-motion shots. It is also possible to film vertically, so you can share the footage on your favourite social media platform.
There are also a few features that really make the camera different, for example 3 or 5 second pre-recording, where the camera records for 3 or 5 seconds before you even click the button. Like the preroll function in photos, this ensures you don't miss a moment. A feature that has come over from cinema cameras is the False Colour function. This functionality helps you determine exposure. This is because the colour is translated by a certain brightness in the image. Ideal for lighting a green screen. While recording with the Theia, you no longer need to keep an eye on time, as this camera has no recording limit.
Image stabilisation & autofocus
The Canon EOS R8 features Dual Pixel CMOS AF II. With this system, you no longer have to worry about whether your subject is in focus. This lets you focus on other important things while filming. You can use tracking in different autofocus modes. The autofocus has been expanded in its various options. For instance, you can now track animals and vehicles in addition to eye, face, head and body detection. In tracking, you have a cool feature, namely the custom preset. This lets you create and save your own box, which means you can always choose your own focus points.
This camera works with electronic stabilisation. In conjunction with the optical image stabilisation of any lenses, this allows this camera to deliver sharp results.
Housing functionalities
The camera features the well-known flip touchscreen on which you can sharply see what you are recording. You also have the option of following your subject via the viewfinder. It shows 120 images per second and features OVF-assist, which stands for Optical Viewfinder Assist. This functionality ensures that even SLR users can get used to this viewfinder.
The camera features Canon's familiar buttons, with icons making it easy to see which button is for which purpose. A very nice button is the photo and video mode switch. It allows you to easily distinguish the photo and video settings and switch between them. The ports on this camera are also versatile, think a microphone jack, a headphone jack, a USB-C connection and a micro HDMI port.
Share, save & control remotely
Are you done with your shoot or need more freedom? Then you can use the WiFi and Bluetooth on the camera. These features make it easy to connect to remotely control your camera, view your files or share with your client or loved ones.
Canon LP-E17
The LP-E17 is a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery for your Canon EOS camera. This battery is ideal as a replacement or spare.
Peter Hadley Tokio 300 dark grey
The Peter Hadley Tokio 300 lets you carry your camera equipment with confidence. The bag is made of 100% recycled polyester that is water-repellent and has a soft inner lining. This keeps your camera dry and scratch- and impact-free. The bag is the perfect size for a system camera, small DSLR camera or camcorder and features variable dividers that can be adjusted to fit your equipment. Thanks to the double zip closure, you can easily access your camera. Carrying this bag is also very easy. In fact, it has a handle and a detachable shoulder strap with shoulder padding that can be attached with two metal carabiners for optimal comfort.
Transcend 64GB SDXC CARD Class 10 UHS-II U3 MLC V90 (R 285MB/s | W 180MB/s)
The Transcend 64GB SDXC CARD Class 10 UHS-II U3 MLC V90 is an extremely fast memory card with write speeds of up to 180MB per second. With a total storage capacity of 64GB, you will always have room for your photos, videos or other digital documents. Thanks to a high write speed, you can record heavy files on your DSLR camera or camcorder, think 4K images or high frame-rates. Because these types of files quickly take up a lot of space, the SD card needs to work fast to store everything without any problems. With this Transcend Class 10 UHS-II U3 MLC V90, this is possible and you can store your material securely quickly and hassle-free.
