It's been a year since I have the R6MII and I am more than happy about it. It's fast, low light performance is absolutely phenomenal, very fast it's versatile, I use it for my channel but also for street photography, I use it with four prime lenses (24,35,50 & 85). I wouldn't change this camera for anything, it's indeed brilliant. I never had any overheating issue, I started with the 80D for five years and the difference with the R6MII was just amazing. The only little negative would be in my opinion the view finder, so I use the screen most of the time but that point aside, the R6 is for me a beast and has helped me a lot to improve the way I shoot. I'm not planning to change it, it's my little baby. Budget wise it's still very affordable and the image quality is wow.

Thanks for including the crop-sensor models. Since I do mostly birds and wildlife, I'm a huge fan of the Canon R7 , since the extra reach matters. Despite its price, it is a pro camera, with 32 MP resolution, dual card slots, 8 stops of IBIS, and robust weather resistance. When the bird-eye tracking AF is combined with high quality L-glass (like the RF 100-500), it's hard to imagine a better birding set-up. My only real complaint is the slow sensor read-out, which makes for serious rolling shutter. But unlike the other crop-sensor models, it offers a 15 fps option with both the mechanical and electronic first curtain shutters, which eliminate the rolling shutter for still photography. I am also impressed by the RF 100-500, which lives on my R7 more than 95% of the time. Lighter than the EF lenses it replaced, the dual focus motors are fast and accurate, the OIS works exceptionally well with the R7 IBIS, and the image quality is spectacular. For those who prefer budget lenses, Canon also offers some affordable choices, like the F11 primes, the RF 100-400, and the nifty-fifty F\1.8 - all of which offer real value for money. I'm looking forward to the R7 Mark II :)

@user-vj9qw6ok1b 2 ай бұрын

Almost every camera has bad rolling shutter when shooting fully electronic, so I wouldn't say that's too bad. Simply avoid it, it has a great mechanical burst.

@wellingtoncrescent2480 Ай бұрын

Absolutely agree. If rolling shutter is an issue with the electronjc shutter, I might choose the first curtain electronic shutter to avoid shutter shock with the mechanical shutter. I am also hoping for a higher resolution EVF in the R7 mark II, for judging image quality in the field. But I can live with that, too. The R7 is an awesome camera for birding.

Thank you for sharing this information concerning wildlife photography. I have a 90D and struggles with what R? camera to buy next. I've heard that the R7, like all APS-C camera's, has a tendency for more noise. I use a Sigma 150/600 and wonder if a R5/R6 with a teleconverter has an advantage over an R7 without. I also wonder: could I still use EF-s type lenses with all of them? I expect some trade-off.

@wellingtoncrescent2480 24 күн бұрын

@@thierryhoornaert9950 I moved from the M6 II, which is the mirrorless version of the 90D, to the R7, at the same time replacing my Sigma 150-600C with the RF 100-500. I am certainly happy with the move, particularly for the IBIS and bird eye tracking. I am sure that low light performance would be better with a full frame camera, but de-noising software is almost magical these days (I use DXO Photolab).

I used it for about a year. Last year December for christmas bought myself a sigma 150-600, And then I also have a canon 50mm f1.8 and 85mm f1.8 as well as n loawa 2xmacro lens.

have to agree with others here...a better (and more expensive camera) will enable the photographer to have more options, enhancing their skill set. If you have a cheaper camera, hobbled with features and a low performance window, you will *always* be limited, even if you are a great photographer.

Very thorough and interesting comparison of the Canon R family. Thank you. One error I noticed was the statement that the R6 MkII has the same memory card slots as the R5 - a CF-express and an SD. It doesn't. It has two SD card slots, which is a significant difference. The CF-express is much more expensive, but also much faster. It's very important with all the bodies with SD only to use the fastest cards you can get, in order to get the most out of the camera's performance. Most of them have pretty small buffers. That, in combination with the often extremely fast burst rate means you won't get a very long burst. A fast SD card mitigates that somewhat. Also, as has been mentioned in other comments, your assurances that 24mp is plenty of resolution don't always hold water. As a wildlife photographer who shoots a lot of small birds, the resolution headroom of the R6 MkII is a concern for me. I also have an R7, which has both the crop sensor and much greater pixel density, so I have options. We also have the luxury of very good upscaling software, which also makes the only adequate (in my opinion) resolution of the 24mp sensor less of a factor.

I've always bought Canon, and since every major camera maker has models that are wonderfully suitable in a host of price ranges and use cases, I can stick with Canon and not be missing anything significant. I have SLRs and DSLRs, and my foray into mirrorless is the R50. It's walkabout sized, it will teach me whether I really need to go mirrorless, it will leave room for some RF lenses, and it will not blow my budget.

Hi thanks for the vid. Just a couple of additional pieces of information I feel ought to be mentioned: The R100 doesn't have a touch screen additionall, the R100, the R50 and R8 don't have a fully mechanical shutter. They have 2 shutter options: electronic 1st curtain and fully electronic. This is ok, but the electronic shutters on these cameras suffer from rolling shutter which kind of makes panning shots (birds in flight, motor racing) virtually impossible in combination with the advertised high frame rates. I would advise to use the electronic 1st curtain option for most situations. Full disclosure: I have an R7 and I use electronic 1st curtain in most situations as the mechanical shutter makes a horrible noise and causes the sensor to vibrate at slow shutter speeds if IBIS is on. For budget friendly full frame options I would probably recommend either the Nikon Z5 or the Sony AIII.

R100 and R50 are severely hobbled by a CrippleHammer to protect R10/R7 sales. R8 is great, but still is hobbled. No IBIS, maximum shutter speed of 1/4000 in mechanical shutter mode and no CFExpress slot...all are poor efforts from Canon.

Thanks for all that info! I am upgrading from my EOS 450D with a couple of great lenses (16-35, 2.8LIIUSM and USM 24-85 3.5-4.5) that I stopped using because of the weight (I use it mostly for travelling) and now it is broken. So I was thinking about buying the R10, although you do not recommend it much here, but... it is small and light. My question for you is... would I get better quality pictures (or the same) as with my old one? or would I feel that it is a bit lower quality? And I´m also thinking about buying the EFS 18-150 3.5-6.3 IS STM with it so that I can also do a bit of nature photo. Is it a good lens or would the pictures look really bad, like with the plastic objectives? When I bought the EOS 450D with its kit lens I was so disappointed because of the quality of the pictures... then it all changed when I changed objectives, the image was crispier and much much better. Thanks so much!

Congrats great video. I've always known this. One digit cameras on Canon are pro range. The higher the number, the higher the specs. The line 7 is for sports and wildlife, and it has a crop sensor to increase the reach. Two digits are mid range cameras, and now the 100 came to be the Rebel version of the SLR and DSLR, basically the entry level camera. I still own a 7D mark II. I chose this camera since I mostly shoot skateboarding 🛹. Now I'd like to move to a full a frame camera. I've been thinking either going mirror less or buying a second and high-end oldy camera like 5D Mk IV or 1Dx Mk II 😅. I got a couple of oldy but good L lenses. The 24-105 f4 and the 70-200 f4 non IS, a nifty fifty f 1.8 which are lenses for full frame sensors. Greetings from Nicaragua 🇳🇮

I'm using a R8 and a R6MKII. When I go for a walk (field etc) to take some birdphotography, I take the R8 and the Sigma 150-600 (+x1,4 conv) because the R8 is also fast and very lightweight. For shooting people, I use the R6MKII (with a 28-70 F2 and a EF 85 1.2) because of 2 memory cards, long lasting battery and overall great performance.

@@responsibleliving6071 Yes, I'm using a Neewer EF/RF-Adapter and everything works flawlessly. The R8 handles noise pretty good, the image quality is good and overheating was never an issue. But I might be not the best for that last information because I've never filmed long clips/movies. The only downsides might be that is only has 1 card slot and that the battery might last long enough for a trip, but as soon as you compare it to the battery of the R6MKII for example, it seems not that long. For a backup cam or upgrade from an older model, the R8 is, especially if bought with a discount/cashback, a good camera.

crop sensor R7 etc have 2 RF-S lenses LOL...pretty pathetic. And with Canon blocking 3rd party lens manufacturers, you're kind of hobbled. You can adapt older EF glass via the EF-RF adaptor, including EF-S APS-C lenses and that is the way to go. However, if you are starting out, I wouldn't touch Canon. If you really want a cropped camera, look at the Sony A6700, it's pretty comparable to the R7. Or, waiting for Nikon to release their Z6III and Z7III, although they are not crop sensors. Hopefully Nikon brings out a crop sensor body and shows Canon and Sony how it's done.

I have a slew of Canon bodies. I've tried most of them. I rank them R5, Original EOS-R, R3, R7, and the rest are non-starters... I have to have the top screen with all of the modes. IMO, no Battery Grip for the R7 is why I don't have one (cancelled my pre-order). I also have a C200 & C300 m2. R5C and C70 are meh, but I'm leaning more toward the R5C... on APSC vs Full Frame, 32mp on Crop is more resolution than a 5DSR, which is fantastic for when you have to crop. That's why long range sports and wildlife are done on Crop Sensors a lot. 7D m2 was super popular for that reason. We need a pro APSC.

The R7 has a 32.5 MP sensor and so much hi-tech included, so you can have bigger/closer pictures and even have the option to crop more in post. Another thing is: what about EF-S type lenses? Which bodies can use them? Is it worth it? I have a 32.5 MP 90D and still struggles with what R? camera to buy next.

You did not cover the original R which on the 2nd hand market is an excellent beginners camera and weather proof and at great prices with low shutter counts. Not to be dismissed.

Great video. I am wanting to make the transition from APS-C to Full-Frame and would like to do it from DSLR (Canon 90d) to Mirrorless. You provide very informative information as it relates to each model, which helps narrow the field. It's a no brainer for me to focus in on the R6 and maybe the R8. I absolutely appreciate the time you afforded to put this video together to make hobbyist like myself smarter when it comes to checking the right boxes before making a final decision. Keep those great videos coming, thank you.

Hi Marc thank you for producing this excellent video, so concise and informative considering the wide selection of cameras being reviewed. However, I think you may have omitted 1 camera the Full Frame EOS RP @ £800-£1000. This camera is 6 years old now (2024) and lacks many of the advanced features found in the R7, R8, R6 mk ii, or R5 (IBIS, Animal/Vehicle Tracking, high FPS, and 4K @ 60fps). It possibly would equate to the R50/R100 (APS-c) in the Full Frame format, as the entry level camera.

My pleasure Michael. I didn't include that camera as the R and RP have now been discontinued. Please check but I believe that is the case.

@MichaelThomas-qh4yv 3 ай бұрын

Hi Marc, thank you for your reply. Yes the EOS R has been discontinued, I purchased one just before it was last year. However, the RP is still being manufactured, even though the R8 is its spiritual successor. I went with EOS R over the R6 mk ii; because the R has the 5D mk iv sensor (30.2 MP), and the top LCD which I frequently use.

I have two D/SLRs, one a is a 1DX ii and also have a R6 ii. The 1DX ii feels ancient in comparison to the R6 ii. Its still very good obviously and I love it, but its definitely a noticeable backwards step. Once you've used a R camera for a while, its hard to go back to D/SLR (for me anyway).

I bought the original EOS R when it came out and still use it almost daily with Dragonframe for stop motion work. I mostly like it but feel like Canon skimped on some of the features that it put in the R numbered models. I wonder why no EOS R mark II? At least it is full frame! It is definitely an odd one out in your lineup. (Not even in it, lol!)

@gerhardbotha7336 2 ай бұрын

My advice is ignore all advice on which camera is best. The camera almost doesn’t matter. What matters is the system. Think about the lens options in the system. Look at the philosophy of how the system expects you to handle the camera. Look at accessories you may want. I like Canon, because despite what anybody says, Canon makes the best handling bodies, with image quality second to none, and lens options from quality low end up to the very best. A top level RF lens is expensive- until you look at a Leica lens of the same spec. And on my R7 I can use all of my 20+ year old lenses to their full potential. And I don’t have to use capture one or something- I use anything from Darktable to LR to whatever. So thats my choice. But really, you can’t go wrong with Sony, Nikon or Fuji. Even OM proved they still maintain a decent system- nothing wrong there if that’s what you like. But once you are in a system, it is easier to switch between bodies as tech and offers change

I went from the original 6D to the R8. The battery is definitely a downgrade but I understand why they did it. No big deal as I can just buy a few more. I bought it over the R6 II because of the price. The money I saved allowed me to buy 2 more Contax Zeiss lenses. No IBIS is no problem. Mirrorless makes using my old Zeiss lenses a dream. The R8 will definitely overheat if you are shooting video for more than 15 minutes in 4K. It'll do in a pinch.

I bought my R50 not more than 2 weeks ago. I do recommend the R50 if you are just starting out and you have a bit more money to spend. I do however advise that you get a decent lens as the kit lens has a terrible but good for beginners aperture. Dont be scared to get used lenses. 😃 I need a lens recommendation for the R50, I do sunset, sunrise, portraits and landscape photography. I need something that can give me all of these without emptying my bank account😆

@user-vj9qw6ok1b 2 ай бұрын

In fact there are big and not so apparent differences between the R50 and the R10. The R10 has two control dials which are important when using manual mode (which probably won't be used by beginners) and even more importantly, it has fully mechanical shutter which do affect image quality by reducing the rolling shutter jello effect to a minimum (R50 only has second mechanical shutter, it starts electronically but ends mechanically). Buffer is another point of difference between the two; IIRC the R10 has a buffer that holds 30 raw files, while the R50 only holds 8, that impact significantly your success when photographing moving subjects or fast action. I'd say the R10 is the begginers action camera, a baby (very baby) R3 and the R50 is the normal family camera, for taking snapshots every few minutes in auto and some video for the family. R100 is a much cheaper R50, with even less amenities like the foldable screen or even one mechanical curtain (it has none).
