The EOS R1 showcases Canon's mastery of deep learning technology, allowing for exceptional subject recognition and tracking, even in the most challenging scenarios.
"This camera employs the newly developed image processor DIGIC Accelerator in addition to the pre-existing processor DIGIC X. The new image processing system, composed of these processors and a new CMOS sensor, enables large volumes of data to be processed at high speeds and delivers never-before-seen advancements in Auto Focus (AF) and other functions." - By combining the new processing power with deep learning algorithms, Canon has achieved a level of subject recognition and tracking that redefines the boundaries of what's possible in a mirrorless camera. In team sports events, where multiple subjects intersect, the EOS R1 can seamlessly maintain focus on the intended target, even if another player passes directly in front of the frame. This is made possible by the camera's "Action Priority" function, which rapidly analyzes the subject's movements and instantly shifts the AF frame to capture the decisive moments of gameplay.
