I really wasn't expecting that ending 😑

Was getting some BTS BROLL at 60fps on the R6 in a house for a wedding shoot and the camera shut down on me for overheating. Never kept the camera on for more the 3 mins and it still over heated. And the kicker I was recording on and Atomos Ninja V!

This is the best R6 related video I’ve seen on KZfaq! I’m shooting on a 1DXII and while it’s a beast of a camera, it’s heavy to carry on hikes and on trips. The R6 seems like a no-brainer for me. Great work!

Great video. I do have some comments to add that I found out while doing my research: - while the R5 has 4k120, the files are huge. Definitely something to consider. - the R5 needs to be shot in the higher quality 4k mode, otherwise the 4k is pretty much garbage compared to the R6. But if you do shoot in that mode, the R5 overheats quickly, so the R6 may be better for 4k shooting in general - M1 is the only way to go for h.265 4:2:2 right now. While RTX cards can deal with h.265, they can do so in hardware only for 4:4:4 and 4:2:0 - so for the R6 that will still be useless - v60 cards are a must, as the 4k60 ends up over 40mb/s, so a v30 card could work if it is fast enough, but it is not certified to be fast enough - The R6 has a crop factor in 4k, but it is very small (1.07x), so for the most part can be ignored. Still, technically cropping a tiny bit

Dude sorry to interrupt and pausing the video at 0:35 but why does your skin looks greenish in tone?? BTW i loved the vid informative as i am planning for R6 so well done with the vid Keep growing

The custom feature is essential to most people who mainly do videography, but that would mean that this camera isn’t for them. I do agree, that should be something implemented in the firmware for canon. If the r5 can do it, I see no reason why the r6 can’t. It’s not like it needs a CF card write speed. Good content.

Thanks for the honest detailed review. You showed case in point if you shoot a lot of video beware - 4K overheating in less than 30 minutes? Unacceptable.

M1 mac Mini is $799 and eats through r5/r6 gives. Also, an M1 iPad Pro and the new iPad Mini 6 will eat those files for lunch. Still an extra cost, but not that bad.

Your subtle humor is great. Love it.

I got the canon EOS r6 for car photography. Image quality is great. I haven't tried 4k video yet, have tried fullhd so far.

Title „‚my overheating nightmare”. Video „it overheated on me once”. Why? 😐

I couldn't even imagine having to have that overheating issue hanging there and ready to drop at anytime. Stay frosty!

You deserve more subscribers! Your videos are great!

I have the R5 and love it.. and going to buy an R6.. I'm selling My EOS-R & 6DMKII to buy the R6. I need 2 dual card slot cams for work and because the 2 cameras work similarly.. the button lay outs will be seamless when transitioning between the two.

Great video 👍,i am thinking of upgrading my canon 80d and iam deciding between canon r6 or a7iv i mostly do car/street/bird photography any suggestions?

I do music, so I usually like to setup my camera at the start and then just keep it running until I get the perfect take. So yesterday, after just 15 minutes, given it was in a pretty toasty room, it overheated while shooting in 4k 25fps, which meant I had to wait for the camera to cool down get 2-3 more takes until it overheated again. This cycle continued for about two hours. I got the take in the end and the footage looks amazing, but it took me SO much longer than it should have...

Great video! Just picked up one, and im really happy with it!

I didn’t expect a Canon R6 Mark II that soon… I’ve just uploaded a video on how I’ve (almost) got rid of the overheating issue on the R6 😅

first off your better off using the NINJA V to record, especially if your recording 4k 60P here are the reasons why.. #1 you get to record to a SSD drive, and you can get a 1TB SSD drive for around $99.00 , if you was to get a 1TB media card your looking well over $300.00.. I believe a 512 GB media card is around $240.00 and that is only half the media space that you can get with A SSD.. #2 Your Camera will never overheat and has no record limit, you can Record 4k60 until your battery runs out or your SSD drive is full. Hours and Hours at a time.. #3 The codec that The Ninja V uses is so much faster then what is built into the Canon Camera, so you will not have to make proxies you can edit the 4k 60p video with out lag.. #4 The Ninja V's Bells and whistles are far better then The Canon ones, meaning the zebra's and false colors and scopes and waves are so much better and more accurate.. #5 recording to a SSD is far safer then the MEDIA cards, ie SD - c-fast cards, the SSD is a hard drive made for a computer, it has far better error correction when writing to the SSD and way less likely to have a Video corruption files, meaning your SD or C-fast cards are more likely to fail and lose your footage then the SSD drives..

Thanks for that very good hands on vid. Can you tell something about the quality in 1080 compared with the eos R???

Great video brother. What laptop are you using to edit?

It's called cripple hammer! It's a way for Canon to push you up the line.

on my r5 I shoot in 8 bit. It rips on the computer, and it still looks good especially if its for internet. Also I shoot 1080 120 for the same reason, those files are really tuff.

Proxies take about 5 seconds in davinci resolve

The R6 actually does have a 4K crop, but it’s slight…1.07x.

Buy neither, both have lock up issues that canon hasn't commented on.

Very good video👌

yes you can set custom modes on video. RP does it, so the R6.

Hey Anthony! Helpful video man 💪 Quick question below: with what kind of sd card are you recording 4k 50fps standard? Cause I am using sony tough m UHS-II V60 and I am receiving droped frames, even at 4k 25fps 😬 (I also used Lexar 1997 UHS-II V60 it is an UHS-II SDXC v60 and the write speed is much bigger than the required in for 340mbps. I am recording into multiples cards. Any ideas? 🤔

Using r6 for 2 years and only 1 time it shut down due to overheating

I'm in the market for a new camera for wedding videography and there's no chance I can chance an overheat. Does this happen in FHD too?

I've had the R6 since it first came out. I was hoping that all the software upgrades would solve the problem. It didn't. I overheated at a College football game in October 2023. I had to remove my lens and stick my camera body in front of fans. After ten minutes it allowed me to shoot a video again. The video overheating kept reappearing throughout the game. 95 degrees on field. Help. Does R6 II overheat?

Hi - I usually shoot 1080 for social media - is 10 bit useful for HD.

For my r6 I used a v60 Lexar memory card and I had problems using it. Can this use a prograde v60 card without a problem? For 4k 60f

1:42 Camera Conspiracies : O_O

Compact flash? Those are gone the way of the dodo. We got CFe (CF express), baby!

IT'S PASSED A YEAR !!! I heard that Canon has updated this beautiful camera !! ... Has it finally become the camera of your dreams?

watching this video because I'm considering purchasing the R5 for video work then checked online and saw that Canon literally just announced the R5C!

This video was very informative. The talking-head footage looks weird here, you are pink, green, yellow. any idea why? it reminds me of an impacted body part that starts to get to normal skin colour. I wish this video did not have annoying music, it's necessary, and I am not a fan of this music.

Every time I see the r6 it look yellow

Has anyone had their R6 get sluggish when taking like one or two photos and it takes like 30 second to a minute to get back to normal. It’s happen a few times but about a week ago mine wouldn’t even turn off with the power switch and I had to remove the battery, then it happen again when the battery was put back in. It would act normal for a few seconds and then go back to super slow and sluggish or not wanting to take photos. Below are more details and any help would be appreciated. No recent firmware update Tried keeping battery out of it for a minute Tried fresh battery Any ideas?? I had to send my R6 in to Canon and Henry’s (store I purchased the camera from) told me it could be 1-2 months depending on the issue and now I feel naked without my camera 😢. Now I’m having to use my older T6S again (first world struggle) 🇨🇦 but honestly the focusing system is amazing on the R6 to track and get a crazy toddler in focus ha ha.

What Sd cards do you use

I ran tests the last two days on all 4k settings… got over 90 minutes straight on 4k24 with no overheating…

You will never use a 1D to record video.

Why is every goddamn camera video i watch Peter McKinnon Style. Get original people, forget the canadian. I had to write this 10 seconds into the video. Now i am watching for the actual content.

Which SD card do you use? Sony Though M V60?

my sony would never....

Rumors price on R5c $7k-8k 😖

Put some ice cubes on the camera

#r6gang

Do a real wedding shoot in 4K +10 Bit then update your experience. In my experience, R5 & R6 are Overheated and stop recording.

Why are u green 👽?😂😂😂

Green...

hi idol i hope you notice me. I hope you will help me with the camera, even if it's not used at first. I want to be a photographer like you. Because I don't have a camera to buy. Because it's expensive.
