I moved from 5D M3 to R6 M2 last week and I am pretty happy about it. This is an incredible camera!

I’m glad you said “professionals and creators “. Because not all creators are professional. 😊

Having 4k 60p with no crop is amazing. I just wish Canon would add 4k DCI recording through a firmware update. I don't think that's too much to ask given what the Panasonic S5 mark II can do for a lower cost. It would be nice to use the R5 and R6 mark II in tandem while both recording in 4k DCI. Great video by the way!

The R6 Mark II is easily the most underrated and underreported camera of the past year. For some reason lesser cameras like the S5 II and A7IV seem to get all the attention despite only having cropped 4K60 and crippled high speed modes in HD. Even the Canon ambassadors don't really mention this camera.

Also, it goes toe to toe with the R5 when it comes to photo resolution. I've compared upsampled R6 II files with R5 files and it's very hard to see a difference in most cases. When I use the "Enhance Super Resolution" feature of Adobe Camera Raw, the R6 II files actually are more detailed (100% zoomed in) and can print larger than native R5 files. I've printed 8MP billboard ads before so 24 MP is more than plenty for anything.

Also kudos to you for mentioning keeping ISOs at multiples of 100, 200, 400, 800, etc. This cam works best at these full stops and almost no reviewers out there acknowledge this (applies to photo and video).

I shot as a pro for 18 years with some of Canon's best cameras (owned the 1D Mark III for 12 years) and the R6 II beats them all by a huge margin. I bought the EF/RF adapter and got the Sigma Art 14-24 2.8, 50 1.4, and Canon EF 70-200 2.8 III and this setup is INSANELY powerful. I shoot hockey and the R6 II with the 70-200 III was nearly perfect, blowing away the 1D series cam I used to use with nearly 98% hit rate even with eye AF. The Sigma lenses on the R6 II are way, way, WAY more reliable than when I used them natively on the 5D Mark IV or 1D Mark III (or even the EOS R).

Plus, here in Canada, the Sigma Art lenses have a 5 year warranty vs only 1 year with the Canon RF lenses.

I've had the R6 Mark II for a little over a month. I came from the Canon 90D crop sensor camera. I've barely scratched the surface of learning the features on this camera. The basic adapter is allowing me to use the 90D lenses. The only issue there is that the EF-S lenses lose resolution delivering about 9.375 mp instead of 24 mp. The Sigma 150-600mm and the Canon Nifty 50 produce 24 mp images. I just have to remember to set the crop factor in the menu.

great video and very detailed descriptions and scenarios. I have a R6 but i mostly shoot photos of my family and rarely do video. I won't be upgrading to the r6mk2 for now, we'll see what mk3 brings us or r5 mk2. thanks for the great content!

[markusbolliger]

Agree with every point you make - if I had to construct the ideal camera for my needs something like the R6 MkII would have been the result - it's the most versatile camera I ever had, with no weaknesses.

I had Canon R6 M2 for 1 month it is amazing but the problem is lenses are expensive so I had to buy some ef lens with the adapter. But still is a amazing camera for sport and more to it!!

Im stuck on a decision between 5D Mk4 or R6 Mk2 for photography only. (Sports & Portraits) Wont be doing video. Which would you recommend. Need a little push in the right direction.

[RyanRamakrishnanEntertainment]

Been looking to upgrade from my EF-M cameras for a minute; I feel you may have just sold me on this one!

[adude]

Great stuff, and a lot of food for thought. As an old (ish), archaic-type guy, I'm still working with DSLR, and I hadn't given much thought to moving to mirrorless. However, I'm starting to think that an R62 may be a nice addition to my bag. (I've still got my original 300D that I've had for 20 years, and is too much of an old friend to toss; I also use a 20D, 7D2, and 1DX3.) I had been giving thought to maybe picking up a 5D4, but that really would be redundant. Since all my lenses save for a soon-to-come Sigma 100-600C and an old Tokina 19-35 are Canon EF/EF-S, it's good to know that the EF-RF adapter would allow me to keep using my EF lenses. I don't know, Christmas is coming…

Is this the perfect canon r6ii vs r5 review? Yes. Thank you!

[GG-sykz]

Hello sir, can i ask is the canon 250d worth buying in 2023 for majorty for photography and a little bit for video shooting , and can u suggest any cameras in the same price range or better cameras to buy in 2023 rather than 250d ? Thx❤

[kifley]

It's perfect for me. I just wish Canon had some 1.8 primes that were good for video.

[skitz]

I am debating between the canon R2 M2 and the Canon R5C, which would you recommend? I shoot videos more than pictures so it will be used for videos.

[AndyKunkel]

Crop never bother me because I shoot a lot of my stuff on Super 35 cameras. Like the BMPCC 6K. So the fact that it still have a Super 35 Mode is great!

I have the EOS R, love the camera. Just was annoyed that it never said which C Log it was using for the longest time until someone somewhere on the internet (can't remember who) said it was c log 3. When I figure that out years ago I was able to get the results I wanted.

Crazy to think Canon's EOS R line launched 5 years ago!

[claudio]

8:39 Of course there are. Sirui Anamorphic RF, Nisi Athena Cine Prime RF…

Hello, I really love photography but just don't know where to start. I had an older Nikon D5100 with some lens on it (it says 18-55mm on it), should I just stick to that or should I get something else? I really dont know much about photography but I want to get real good at it. What are the steps? I understand Aperture, Shutter Speed, and ISO, but that is pretty much it lol. I need a stepping stool to the next level

[cashsuliVLOGS]

I love it but if we gonna compare it to canon r5 would you still pick the r6 mark 2? am videographer/photographer that want something do the job in both of Videography and photographer side
