Canon R3 User Manual (PDF) & Online Help

You are here: Home / Canon EOS R Mirrorless Cameras / Canon EOS R3 Guides & Resources / Canon R3 User Manual (PDF) & Online Help
Last updated: November 21, 2022 / Published: June 10, 2022 by Timothy Mayo - 2 Comments

You can download the Canon R3 Advanced User Guide in PDF format here.

Alternatively you could visit the Canon R3 Advanced Online Help Guide instead.

The PDF version is better for printing whilst the Online Guide is a little easier to view online.

If you’d like to know which is the best memory card to use in your R3, then we have tested 25 different cards in-camera in our comprehensive Canon R3 Memory Card Guide.

About Timothy Mayo

I love shooting wildlife the most but will happily point my camera at pretty much anything. I started RFShooters.com with my amazing sister Emma to share our own adventure with the Canon R Series. At present I own the R5 + RF 100-500 lens. I also run a similar site for Sony Alpha Shooters and also shoot with a Sony A1. I find new camera technology fascinating so I unfortunately suffer from a very bad case of GAS! You can follow me on Instagram if you wish! Although I don’t post as often as I should.

    At the top of the page almost:

    “You can download the Canon R3 Advanced User Guide in PDF format here”

    But… if I click the ‘here’ – link I get directed to the R5 manual. Not the R3 manual..

    Just a small thing, but I thought might as well report it.. 🙂
