- The Canon EOS 5DS R is a high-resolution DSLR designed to rival medium-format cameras, featuring a 50.6MP sensor with low-pass filter cancellation for extreme detail.
- Ideal for professional landscape, architectural, and commercial studio photographers who need massive file sizes for large-scale printing.
- Rent this over the standard 5D Mark IV when resolution is the priority; the 5DS R provides significantly higher pixel density for intricate textures and cropping flexibility.

Questions about this gear
What is the difference between the 5DS and 5DS R?
The 5DS R includes a low-pass filter cancellation effect, which delivers higher sharpness and finer detail than the standard 5DS, though it may increase moiré in certain patterns.
Is the Canon 5DS R good for video?
While it shoots 1080p Full HD, it lacks 4K and Dual Pixel AF. It is primarily a high-resolution stills camera rather than a dedicated video tool.
Does the 5DS R have weather sealing?
Yes, it features a highly durable magnesium alloy construction with dust and water resistance for professional use in challenging environments.
What battery does the Canon 5DS R use?
It uses the LP-E6N rechargeable lithium-ion battery, providing approximately 700 shots per charge based on CIPA standards.
About the Canon 5DS body
The new EOS 5DS R create stunning images in great clarity and high resolution. At a whopping 50.6 megapixels, this new ultra-high-pixel camera offers high-speed continuous shooting maximum of approx. 5 fps. With other features such as 61-point high-density reticular AF and EOS iTR, the EOS 5DS R is truly excels as an ultra-high-pixel camera.
With all the features and capabilities of the EOS 5DS, the EOS 5DS R camera offers the potential for even greater sharpness and fine detail for specialized situations. It features the same Canon designed and manufactured 50.6 Megapixel sensor, with the low-pass filter* (LPF) effect cancelled to provide even more fine edge sharpness and detail for critical subjects such as detailed landscapes, and other situations where getting the sharpest subject detail is a priority.
Spectacular Resolution for Specialized Applications
Low-pass filter effect cancellation
For photographers wanting the ultimate in high resolution capture, the EOS 5DS R camera has a low-pass filter* (LPF) effect cancellation. While a low-pass filter is useful to reduce color artifacts and moiré typical with digital capture, it also reduces detail at the pixel level. With the LPF disabled, the EOS 5DS R takes full advantage of the original resolving power of the camera's 50.6 Megapixel sensor. More detail is captured and retained in the original image, perfect for landscape and commercial applications where pixel-level detail is scrutinized and when the sharpest possible image is needed.
*The possibility of moiré and color artifacts is greater due to the LPF cancellation function.
Speed and Accuracy with Intelligent Scene Recognition and Analysis
EOS Scene Detection System with RGB+IR Metering Sensor
The EOS 5DS R camera has an amazing iSA Intelligent Scene Analysis system that employs an independent RGB+IR light sensor with approximately 150,000-pixel resolution. This sensor enables Canon's Intelligent Tracking and Recognition system (iTR AF) that detects and tracks subjects, automatically switching the AF point to optimize tracking. With new tracking algorithms tailored to recognize faces and colors, this system serves as a brilliant foundation to the EOS 5DS R's AF system.
Mirror Vibration Control for Sharper images
Advanced Mirror control mechanism and shutter release time lag
The camera shake that occurs from the impact of an SLR's mirror can leave blurred details in the recorded image. This effect is magnified when working with a super high-resolution sensor like the one found in the EOS 5DS R camera. To counter the effects of conventional, spring-driven SLR mirrors, the EOS 5DS R features a newly developed Mirror Vibration Control system. The camera's mirror is not controlled by springs but instead is driven by a small motor and cams. This system suppresses the impact typical of the camera's mirror, significantly reducing impact and its effects on the image. A new Time Release Lag setting, easily accessed on the EOS 5DS R's menu system offers added protection against camera-shake blur by setting the shutter release time intentionally longer so the camera does not begin the exposure until after the impact of the camera's mirror has diffused.
Better Accuracy in More Situations
Anti-flicker feature
With Canon's Anti-flicker function, the EOS 5DS R camera is able to deliver accurate results under cycling lighting situations. Under flickering light, such as fluorescent lighting, a fast shutter speed may result in an irregular exposure. The EOS 5DS R's Anti-flicker function detects the frequency and phase of the flicker and captures images near the point of peak brightness when the subject is most likely well illuminated.
Specialty Controls, Built Right In
Built-in intervalometer and bulb timer
The EOS 5DS R camera offers time-lapse fixed-point shooting and long exposures without the need for a remote control. The EOS 5DS R's interval timer takes from 1 to 99 shots at preselected intervals (from 1 second to 99 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds, or unlimited), ideal for shooting flowers as they bloom or clouds drifting through the sky. Captured exposures can even be collected and saved as an HD movie. Its built-in bulb timer keeps the shutter open for a designated amount of time, perfect for night photography, to capture the flow of traffic on a street corner, or any other situation where long exposure photography is warranted.
The Canon 5DS is a professional grade full-frame DSLR with a 50.6 MP CMOS sensor that captures ultra-high resolution images suitable for large-scale printing and creative cropping.
