The Canon EOS RT (1989) is an EOS body with a **fixed pellicle (semi-transparent) mirror** — RT for "Real Time." Same body chassis as the EOS 630, but with the moving mirror replaced by a fixed semi-transparent mirror. Result: **no viewfinder blackout** at the moment of exposure, and faster shutter response (the camera doesn't need to flip the mirror up). 5 fps continuous shooting.
