The new Canon EOS R launched last year towards the end of 2018. I was invited for the media launch but I had no idea what Canon Singapore was about to bring the table until the launch day itself. This time, it is not just another new and improved version of their EOS camera bodies or lenses. But surprisingly, this time around they introduce a new series of Canon DSLR called EOS R. What’s with the R? When I held Canon EOS R in my hands for the first time, I was super excited. It’s different from the other EOS series of cameras. But why call it EOS R? Does…

Counting Down to 2018 with Canon SELPHY
Have a glass of wine, let your hair down and get ready to usher in the new year. Entering into 2018 would also mean looking back at 2017 and recollecting all those memorable moments that made you today.
