    PCMag UKHands-on review · 2022

    An excellent, class-leading autofocus camera with fast bursts and 4K60, but older sensor tech and missing video features keep it just short of an Editors' Choice.

    TechRadarNo printed score · Hands-on review · 2024

    A Best in Class beginner camera with smart autofocus, fast bursts and good value, held back mainly by missing IBIS, cropped 4K60 and a thin native lens range.

    EngadgetNo printed score · Hands-on review · 2022

    A solid, easy-to-use budget APS-C camera with fast bursts and excellent autofocus, but it is not a big leap over rivals and is a bit pricey for a true budget model.

    An affordable, lightweight all-rounder entry camera with good images that most buyers will find plenty.

    Expert ReviewsNo printed score · Buying guide · 2023

    In a beginner camera roundup the R10 is picked as best for autofocus, with excellent image quality and easy controls, but weak low-light ability without IBIS and few native lenses.

    Tom's GuideNo printed score · Hands-on review

    A capable beginner hybrid with standout autofocus, but the reviewer feels it is not special at stills or video for roughly $1,000 and is outclassed by cheaper rivals with bigger lens ranges.
