In this bumper episode we go in-depth on Canon’s two brand new mirrorless cameras, the first two APS-C format cameras of the R-System: the EOS R7 and EOS R10. Lucy Hedges talks with photographers and vloggers Dani Connor and Diana Milos who have been getting to grips with the brand new cameras to find out what makes them so special. 

They are also joined by Canon Europe Product Marketing Manager, John Maurice who gives us an in-depth walkthrough of precisely what these amazing pieces of kit are capable of. 

In today's episode Laura El-Tantawy sits down for a fascinating and in-depth discussion with Norwegian wildlife photographer, Canon Ambassador and scientist Audun Rikardsen. Audun's incredible work presents beautiful and original images of wildlife that sometimes have the air of the impossible about them, often captured on split-levels or strange angles.

He shoots with Canon EOS R-series cameras and builds his own custom equipment to help capture the shots in exactly the way he imagined them. Laura asks Audun how his scientific background gives him an advantage as a wildlife photographer, quizzes him about the kit he uses and makes and finds out all about the enviable adventures photographing whales and other Arctic animals. It’s a unique one-on-one glimpse into the life and work of this brilliant photographer.
