Canon EOS R1

Shot at a whole series of night games and the burst rate never slowed down once, even after thousands of frames. The body felt perfectly balanced with a heavy telephoto lens too, which surprised me.

Switching from my old gear, the autofocus on this camera locks onto subjects so fast I actually trust it for indoor sports now. The build feels incredibly solid in my hands, and the electronic shutter is silent which is perfect for quiet venues.

I was shooting a full day of sports and the autofocus locked onto players instantly, even in low light. The buffer cleared fast enough that I never missed a sequence, which is exactly what I needed for action shots.
