Canon R7 vs Canon R10: Physical Specs and Body features Comparison

Size and weight is a big decision factor when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs. In this section, We are going to illustrate Canon R7 and Canon R10 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon R7 has external dimensions of 132 x 90 x 92 mm (5.2 x 3.54 x 3.62″) and weighs 612 g (1.35 lb / 21.59 oz) (including batteries). Canon R10 has external dimensions of 122.5 x 87.8 x 83.4mm (4.82 x 3.46 x 3.28 and weighs 426 g (0.94 lb / 15.14 oz) (including batteries).

Below you can see the front view size comparison of Canon R7 and Canon R10. Canon R10 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 9mm narrower, 2mm shorter and 9mm thinner than Canon R7.

Now lets look at the top view comparison of Canon R7 and Canon R10.

Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day. Canon R10 is significantly lighter (186g ) than the Canon R7 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.

Also keep in mind that body weight is not the only deciding factor when comparing two interchangeable camera bodies, you have to also take into account the lenses that you will be using with these bodies. Since both Canon R7 and Canon R10 have the same Canon RF lens mount and APS-C sized sensors, lenses will not be a differentiator on total size of the system.

Weather Sealing

With its weather sealed body, we believe that R7 has a big advantage over R10 which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.

LCD Screen Size and Features

Canon R7 and Canon R10's LCD screens has the same diagonal size of 3.00".

Both cameras feature Fully Articulating screens where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over the head levels. Fully articulating screens are also useful for taking Selfie shots and video.
Canon R7 vs Canon R10: Sensor Comparison

Canon R7 has a 33.0MP APS-C (22.2 x 14.8 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Digic X processor. On the other hand, Canon R10 has a 24.0MP APS-C (22.2 x 14.8 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Digic X processor.

Canon R7's sensor provides 9MP more than Canon R10's sensor, which gives a significant advantage in real life. You can print your images larger or crop more freely. On the other hand, please keep in mind that Max sensor resolution is not the only determinant of resolving power. Factors such as the optical elements, low pass filter, pixel size and sensor technology also affects the final resolution of the captured image.

Below you can see the R7 and R10 sensor size comparison.

Canon R7 vs Canon R10 Sensor Size Comparison
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Canon R7 and Canon R10 Cameras


Canon R7 and Canon R10 have the same sensor sizes so they will provide same level of control over the depth of field when used with same focal length and aperture. On the other hand, since Canon R10 has 34% larger pixel area (13.69µm2 vs 10.18µm2) compared to Canon R7, it has larger pixel area to collect light hence potential to have less noise in low light / High ISO images.

Canon R7 vs Canon R10 Comparison of Available Lenses
Which camera has more lenses?

Number of available lenses is a big decision factor while choosing your interchangeable lens camera. Canon R7 and Canon R10 have the same Canon RF lens mount and currently there are 34 native lenses available for these cameras.

Another important factor is the availability of image stabilization. Canon R7 has a big advantage in this regard because it has a sensor based image stabilization (IS) which means that all the lenses mounted to this body will be stabilized. R7's built-in Image stabilization system is effective to compensate vibration up to 7.0-stops according to CIPA standards.
On the other hand, Canon R10 doesn't have this feature so you have to buy a lens with optical stabilization feature. Currently there are 23 lenses for Canon RF mount with Optical Image Stabilization features.
