Using the EOS R for Sports Photography

Peter Read Miller, a Sports Illustrated photographer and Canon Explorer of Light decided to take an EOS R out to a Texan's NFL game to see how well it performed under the stress and pressure of an NFL football game.

Sports photography isn't a normal area where the current EOS R model is supposed to do well in, with a more pedestrian frame rate.

He found no problems with autofocus and found the camera delivered some excellent photos during the game.
