Canon R6 | Is the Canon EOS R6 Good enough for Video? The perfect youtube vlogging camera? Footage

How good is the Canon EOS R6 for video? Everybody says it's more of a photography camera... maybe so, however, it depends on your style of filming. I show you what I think, in this video.

I also show you what the Canon R6 footage looks like compared to the R5 and the EOS R. R5 vs R6 vs EOS R. Plenty of Canon R5, eos R and R6 footage examples to look at here.

***** The text over the image at 7:31 was meant to say Canon EOS R Cropped 4k***** sorry folks :D

I hope you enjoy watching this video. Please like, share and subscribe for more gear reviews and tutorials. Leave comment down below in the description and I will do my best to reply! Thank you :)

R5, R6 or EOS R?? Which one for you? :D maybe neither...

[pruett]

Just ordered an R6 TODAY!!!! Very much because of this video

[kipling]

One day I may break free of my C100 MKII bubble (I have 2). They do the job, good enough for online delivery, and minimal work in post. But my, how technology has moved on. Thanks for putting this up. The R6 truly is a lovely camera.

I got the r6 for about a week now, mostly for video shooting.
It's absolutely fantastic !!!

Hello my friend. I loved your video. We are at the end of 2022 and I still use my Canon 80D and I have good results with it. I wanted to take a leap. I know the R6 isn't cheap and it's been out for a while, but I still think it would be good for me. Shooting in 4k full frame would be great. ME looks like it does a small crop of zero comma something, but it's still little compared to R7. You recommend. I have basic lenses for APC, 18-55, 10-18mm and the 50mm 1.8. At first I would have to use the adapter, but I think it would be an evolution. The R7 shoots with no time limit, the R6 only takes 30 minutes and then you have to press REC again. What do you think?

Cool looking camera. It really is.. But it’s always so interesting when video shooters trip out over specs... 8 bit vs10 bit.. or 4.2.0 or 4.2.2.. because clients do NOT care, because they can’t tell. So as long as we all admit that these changes are for the shooters, and for the personal pleasure of pulling shadows and “grading” then we will be OK. Except for a few annoyances, the R6 looks capable, as have all digital cameras ever since they came out years ago and as they will be twenty years into the future.

Such a great Youtuber. Sam, I don't watch Peter McKinnon so much anymore, I'm finding it more interesting to see what new up & coming people like yourself are doing. I'm just about to start uploading videos about how to do YT to generate business....main target audience: Entrepreneurs, home business people, coaches etc... Can't remember if i mentioned and idea about us doing an interview or something before? People like watching interviews with people who are doing interesting things (think Joe Rogan but on a much more niche and less enormous scale)

[Noeman]

This is so wonderfull. The sound production is also superb. I've never heard the sound fidelity like yours.
Please make a tutorial on sound recording and editing, so we can learn from you.

[MODESTYXO]

Great content. If you were to buy a camera today, would you purchase an fx3, Canon R6 Mark 2, or Zv-e1 for vlog/podcast, doc content, or any other suggestions

[mguphynn]

Hello! new to the channel. great video. Definitely thinking of getting an R6

[kwameryan]

Hey Sam! Watched this video and loved it so I watched a few more and then subbed lol... Really fun channel! I have and R and have been resisting getting an R6 cause i know it's just GAS and it'll pass! Besides, I noticed that your talking head shots look great and since you're holding the R6 that's gotta be the R, maybe in 4K 10-bit 4:2:2 to the atomos? Please say yes lol.. Anyway keep up the great work and I look forward to seeing what you do with your R6 moving forward. Greetings from Germany 👍

[CryptoJones]

I'm kitting out my R6 for video. I want to eventually buy an R5C MK II when it comes out.

[tieuhotieulong]

Same to me! I love big Screen but not problem with R6

[willcrespo]

Super cool. The R6 is for sure more than enough for most situations.

[TimandLauren]

sam...the sony fx6 is a full frame beast..so excited for it, have you looked at it?

[travelfoodielove]

I’m trying to decide bw the m6 mark ii or the R6 mark ii for vlogging. Which do u think is better?

[potbtech]

What incredible content! You got a new sub. Is there any chance you'll review the R7 or the Fx30 and perhaps compare them? I'd really like to hear your thoughts on those. Thanks for the amazing videos!

[ElBoyoElectronico]

I want to own a Canon R6 so bad for my drumcovers. Might take a looong time to get there. Great video and great production quality!

[richryanphotography]

great video.... Just subscribed, and looking forward to checking out more of your videos... do you think this is a good camera for real estate video ?

[FRUITSWITHROOTS]

Great video. Really thinking of the R6 as an upgrade. Agree about the codecs.
