This is the most perfect timing ever! I literally JUST got my R6 mark ii in yesterday!

[potayto-potahto]

As an R6 Mk II owner, this has been great. Will probably watch the whole thing through another 3 times. Thank you.

[dris]

Finally! The R6 Mark II is the most underrated camera of the past 12 months! It's best in its class (definitely ahead of the S5II and A7IV as a hybrid), but gets no attention (even the R8 got a user guide and DXOmark testing before this much better camera). I tried the rest and got this camera and it's just amazing!

[AbsurdNRD]

Yessss on how to hold a camera. I see people with expensive gear and don’t even know how to hold the camera. Triggered. 😅

[upcycleengineer]

Whenever I am interested in gear I come here to see if a video has been made. This channel is a true resource.

[Pphoto]

The best on YouTube, I’ve become a huge fan and I’ve purchased all of your FroPacks. If I ever have a photography question, your channel is my first go to place for both gear and technique. Great Job, keep up the great work.

[joycady]

Just got the R6 Mark II and I always go to your videos when setting up a new camera, cause you're the best Jared! Thank you!

[lordnelson]

This was absolutely fantastic. No BS, right to the point. This will be my first full frame mirrorless, replacing my 6D Mark II (which is also excellent). Going on a photography vacation to Greece and wanted more versatility, features, and ability for quietness while rapid shooting. Again, thank you (and Steve) for such an excellent video.

Just got my R6M2 about a month ago and so far I am loving it. This tutorial was very helpful and informative. Much appreciated Mr Polin.

[Maximilan]

This was fan-freaking-tastic Jared. Took me few days to go through all and set it up to my style and know what everything does helped a whole lot. Thanks for taking the time in making such a detailed walk through.

[DanielDuhon]

Every time he said “horizontically” it made me laugh lol

[mfd-germnl]

YouTube may not appreciate this video, but hell, I did!! bought this camera after watching your real world pReview (awesome video) and some other videos about the Sony A7IV and the R6 mark one. So I owned it for quite some time and still learned some really useful things! thank you Mr Polin! I also want to say, that I really enjoy your style of teaching! I grabbed my Camera, watched the video and "participated" :D

[robhamilton]

Just got my r 6 mark 2 a couple days ago. Balked at viewing your 2 hour video but it is FANTASTIC. Thank you for going thru the menus in detail. I mostly only do photography not video. Haven’t taken any photos yet but hope to get out this weekend. I upgraded from my t7i which I loved. Hope this will be better

[JoeJonesABC]

Jared, i like your no-nonsense attitude towards everything, like features that are worthless and you basically say that and say don't use this or that feature.

[maalvare]

I just got my camera. This video was invaluable in setting up my camera. Thanks!

[benkaska]

JUST bought my CanonR6ii and I'm very excited for this thank you!

[vantxge]

Thank you for this! Just got this camera loving it so far.

[truthseeker]

oh finally. ive got this camera for some time now. really enjoying the 4k60p full frame. ive learnt a few stuff from random views and diy. cool to see this 2hour video.

[jasonbihler]

Fro"KNOWS" how to set up a camera. I just bought 2 new Canon R6 Mark IIs and this video helped me set them up to maximize my efficiency. This is really a great teaching video in general for the functionality of this camera. I've never seen a better overall comprehensive yet concise explanation of features in a setup video. Thanks so much!

[HisMajesty]

I just recently bought my R6 Mark II based off of one of your comparison videos, and this video is exactly what I needed now too! Thanks man!
