Canon eos r vs sony a9?
The Canon EOS R and the Sony a9 are both full-frame mirrorless cameras. The EOS R has more resolution at 30.3 megapixels, and it's a common used buy. The a9 has 24.2 megapixels, but it's a stacked-sensor sports camera with stabilisation in the body, which the EOS R lacks. If you're shooting fast action, the a9 is the better fit.
Whichever you choose, the lenses matter more. A few picks:
- For the EOS R, Canon RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM is a sensible everyday zoom.
- For the EOS R, Canon RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM suits sport and portraits.
- For the a9, Sony FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS is a strong action partner.
- For the a9, Sigma 60-600mm f/4.5-6.3 DG DN OS Sports gets you far reach for wildlife or sport.
