An eclipse of the sun happens when the moon passes between the sun and earth in perfect alignment, so as to block part or all of the sun from us on earth. This will be the second total eclipse in North America in the digital photography era.
When it comes to an event of this nature, it doesn’t matter what level of photographer you are, you can capture amazing images of the eclipse using our Mirrorless R Series Cameras and RF Lenses. From high-end models like the EOS R5 to more entry-level/beginner models like the EOS R100, Canon has a fit that’s right for you.
