This is a Real World Preview of the Canon EOS R6 Mark II. As always, this isn’t a full review since we were using pre-production units, but it’s pretty close to one. I got my hands on the R6 Mark II and NEW RF 135mm f1.8 at a Canon Press Event in San Diego. The biggest questions being answered in this video are, what’s changed, is it worth the upgrade from the R6 and is it a mini Canon EOS R3?

Looking forward to a head-to-head between the R6 and R6 II sometime in the future in both stills and video! I think Canon's decision to price the R6II the same as the R6 was a good thing since I've been thinking about getting a used R6 in the near future. I was considering an R or RP but the autofocus on the R6 makes it a much better choice for me. Thanks Jared!

Jared, based on what I've seen on most of the R6 Mk 2 "first impression videos", I believe an upgrade from the R6 to the Mk 2 doesn't make a lot of economic sense, unless you need the very fast shutterless frame rates (40 FPS vs 20 FPS) or the removal of the 30 minute time limit. The other improvements likely don't have a big impact on most standard use cases. I will say that the improvements from the R to the R6 were quite significant. Thanks for your review!

@Stanmademedia Жыл бұрын

I use an R6 professionally and have an R as my second body. I already listed my R for sale a month ago to get a second R6 because I honestly love the camera but now I'm just going to get the new mark II. I shoot weddings primarily along with nightlife and automotive work so this will be a perfect little upgrade. Just recently I've had 2 clients ask that I do both photo and video of an event and the one thing that missed me off and was the only thing I missed from my 5d IV was the ability to quickly switch from photo to video. With the R6 it was such a pain in the ass to look down at the mode dial and switch it over, especially since these are very low light scenarios inside of nightclubs. This will solve that issue and I can't wait to get one!

I think the blinking LCD frame will be handy for selfie video when you're farther from the LCD. As for keeping or selling the R6: I'm keeping mine. It's my main KZfaq cam and backup for my R5 in stills. If I want video stuff like 4K/120, I just switch to the R5. You didn't mention that the new button layout allows multiple custom modes for video, which the original R6 doesn't allow.

16:45, the OM-1 does that also, ProCaptureSH2, up to 1.4 seconds back in time (you can tweak it yourself), full AF tracking, subject and eye detection at up to 50 fps, RAW and you must not select the image in body from that raw burst package, you can select it later in LrC or C1 or whatever else you are using like e.g. ACDsee. And the OM-1 has a stacked BSI sensor spitting out an awesome image quality.

Great pReview. The feature set and capability of this camera is exactly what I've been waiting for Canon to come out with. But just 5 days before Canon's announcement, I finally gave up hope and reluctantly decided to abandon the Canon ecosystem, even though it meant abandoning my many excellent L lenses as well. I bought a Sony A7IV and a couple of Sony lenses. I now regret that decision, as I would not have to replace all my great Canon lenses if I had just waited a few more days before giving up on Canon. Oh well. C'est la vie.

@gekkardboy Жыл бұрын

This looks like a nice bump in features and will be a great camera at the same price point. I use an R6 working as a part-time photog, but I will be hanging on to the original body for now. The higher res and 40 fps are sexy, but not really worth upgrading for me personally. I will hold out to see where they go with the R5 specs, then maybe trade up.

I have the R5 and R6 and use them for wedding video and photo work. The R6 as a photo camera is mostly almost perfect for wedding work. I've wanted a little more resolution on the sensor (like 4-6 more MP). The R6 mark II does that. As a video camera, the R6 has frustrated me to no end. It still overheats, even after firmware update 1.6. The 30 minute record limit is nonsense... especially after the R7 and R10 camera have no limit. No custom modes in video. The R6 mark II solves most of my gripes with the R6 mark I and I will be running to upgrade and sell my R6. Thanks for the in depth first look Jared.

I swapped the Mark IV and bought the R5. The auto focus is not as good as he is making it out to be. Although it is better than the Mark IV it is not perfect and has its flaws. Especially working with the newspaper I tend to use spot focus a lot more than eye detect. It is fast than having to cycle through which persons eye you are focused on. He claims the autofocus rarely misses even with running or moving objects. I have tried the auto focus on every single setting and it misses a lot with my dog running no matter what.

@@evi2083 I had the 5D Mark IV (and shot with the best Canon DSLRs for 18 years). The R6 Mark II AF is light years better than any Canon DSLR including the 1D Mark III that I shot with as a pro for 12 years. I took the R6 Mark II out and shot hockey - arguably the most difficult sport to shoot - for a couple hours after getting my new cam. Out of the box, it NEVER missed! It acquired eye AF every time, thru plexi-glass, even when the players were wearing masks or cages. It was incredible! My 1D Mark III would have taken so much fiddling with the AF points, or I would have just used the center point all game, and it still would have missed 50% of shots. The 5D Mark IV would have been significantly worse. I think I had a 95% perfect hit rate with the R6 Mark II using the EF 70-200 2.8 III adapted. I also had the EOS R and it was better than the 5D Mark IV, but not nearly as fast or accurate as the R6 Mark II.

Since a big portion of Sony's marketshare is consumers, it makes sense they allowed third party cheaper glass.

I wish that camera companies would give 1080p video some love instead of treating it like a red-headed step child nobody wants. 4k optimization is awesome, don't get me wrong. But why is it asking too much to oversample 1080p? They already do it with 4k. GOOD 1080p is still worthwhile, and the file size savings are massively worth it. Have confirmed with both Sony and Canon that neither of the new cameras (A7R, FX30, R6 Mark ii, or anything at all) that oversampled 1080p is not offered and not planned to be offered at all. Reviewers are doing everybody a disservice by not chasing after this and just focusing on how good the 4k video is.

@@Gregori-mi2vy8nc6y I own EF glass personally but for previous jobs I've had a collection of RF, they're brilliant Obviously expensive but so worth it if you're buying new glass anyway It shocked me how quickly AF works on the new gear, how dark the room can be for you to still find focus and how much detail you can pull out of shadows etc For reference my current gig is a nightclub photographer I'm using the R6II and a 16-35 f4L lens in a DARK nightclub Zero issues focussing on people any time needed, sometimes it needs to use the infrared focus beam light but otherwise it's always bang on whatever your focus point is The only consideration is in low light it struggles to detect a face, but when you set the point it will still track and focus it perfectly

What about the C1, C2, C3 functions, does they finally works for video ?? Nice video btw

Didn’t test it but they should. They basically gave it everything the R5 can do in terms of video functionality

Would love to see you review the R6 Mark II menu systems like you did with the RP.

Because Jared is photo centric he saved the most obviously important upgrade until the end - witch is an improvement to the video overheating. Keeping in the same price was because of,the R6’s competition to,the Sony A74.

I just hope they add a firmware to get rid of record limits across all active canon cameras. I'll probably pick up the Mark II as my "A cam" due to the RAW video capabilities, and keep my regular r6 as a solid b cam.

Finally upgraded from an R to R6 a month or so ago and having freezing issues when recording video. I use this for work and have lost data. Luckily noting essential YET! Hoping to get it swapped under warranty but having the mark 2 makes me think I should just return and upgrade. Ps. Great to see some outtakes and nice to know even Jared messes up some times 😂😂

I hope the R6 drops a lot in price because as a RP user it would be such a blessing to get that upgrade. Thanks for the update Jared! I started Raw Talk the other week to see what you said about Fujifilm and I do will listening more in the future. #rawtalk

I went from RP to R6. It's a huge step up In functionality but in terms of image quality, don't expect much. You will love it as long as you are ok with the IQ you have now just much better AF, faster functions, and the IBIS.
