Canon EOS R6 Mark II Review
Introduction
The new Canon EOS R6 Mark II is a mid-range full-frame mirrorless camera which replaces the original EOS R6 that was initially released in 2020.
The R6 II utilities a new 24.2 megapixel CMOS sensor which offers a 20% increase in resolution compared to its 20 megapixel predecessor.
It offers a class-leading burst shooting rate of 40fps with the electronic shutter, double that of its predecessor, making it Canon's fastest ever full-frame mirrorless camera, surpassing even the standard 30fps mode offered by the range-topping EOS R3.
Other key features include the latest DIGIC X processor, 6K/60p unlimited video recording, 8-stops of IBIS, expanded 50-204,000 ISO range, improved AI tracking which additionally recognises horses, aircraft and trains, new OVF simulation mode, dual SD UHS II card slots, 5GHz wi-fi and Bluetooth 5.0, and webcam and live streaming support.
The Canon EOS R6 Mark II body only is available now priced at £2,779.99 / €3,149.99 / $2,499.00 in the UK, Europe and US respectively. It is designed and made in Japan.
Ease of Use
Looking at the EOS R6 Mark II alongside the original model, you'd be very hard pressed to tell it apart from its 3-year-old predecessor.
Canon have changed a few aspects of the external control layout, most notably adding a new On/Off/Lock switch on the right-hand-side of the top-plate and a new Camera/Movie switch on the left, but otherwise the two models are virtually indistinguishable, other than the addition of Mark II to the front nameplate.
This lack of change for changes sake does mean that if you're an original EOS R6 owner, you'll feel instantly at home using this new version. There are also no quirky multi-controllers or multi-function touch bars here to provoke controversy, with the R6 II having a much more conventional control layout that's very much in the long tradition of previous EOS cameras, mirrorless and DSLR alike.
Despite the Canon EOS R6 Mark II utilising a mostly polycarbonate body, impressively it still offers the same level of weather-proofing as the EOS 6D Mark II and the 5D Mark IV DSLR cameras.
Therefore it benefits from being both lightweight - 588g body-only or 670g with both a battery and memory card fitted (10g lighter than the original R6) - and fully weather-sealed. It measures 138.4 × 98.4 × 88.4 mm, making it a whopping 1mm bigger than the R6!
The Canon R6 II benefits from having a very deep handgrip that comfortably accommodates four fingers, something that can't be said of a lot of mirrorless cameras that suffer from having too small a grip.
The minimalist front plate sports just a single control - the classic Depth of Field preview button, which helps you determine what your photos will look like before the image is taken. There's also a porthole for the AF assist light and a lozenge shaped button for releasing the lens.
At the heart of the EOS R6 Mark II is a brand new 24.2 megapixel CMOS sensor which offers a 20% increase in resolution compared to its predecessor.
This should answer some of the critics of the original model's more modest 20 megapixel sensor, although inevitably there will be calls for even more resolution to have been provided.
We think that 24 megapixels is the sweet spot for this class of camera, though, especially given the blistering burst shooting speeds that the R6 II offers.
The ISO range still runs from 100-102,400, which can be further expanded up to ISO 204,800 and down to ISO 50, just like on the original model.
The Canon EOS R6 Mark II again incorporates 5-axis In-Body Image Stabilisation (IBIS). It has been designed to work collaboratively with the IS system that's built into many RF-mount lenses, with the lens and the sensor working together to correct pitch and yaw and the sensor correcting the X-Y and roll movements.
This intelligent stabilisation system provides up to a frankly incredible 8-stops of stabilisation when the camera is paired with certain lenses, allowing you to hand-hold the camera for up to 4 seconds and still get critically sharp results.
Even some non-stabilised lenses such as the RF 85mm F1.2L USM or RF 28-70mm F2L USM offer 8 stops of stabilisation when they're mounted on the EOS R6 Mark II, thanks to the large 54mm diameter of the of the RF Mount.
The EOS R6 Mark II can also stabilise older, non-IS lenses including any EF lens that is fitted to the R6 II via the Canon EF-EOS R mount adapter. The stabilisation system will also work with lenses from other manufacturers – you just need to input the focal length into the camera's menu system.
In practice, the EOS R6 Mark II and the RF 24-105mm F4 L IS USM lens that we were sent for testing provided up to the headline grabbing 8-stops of stabilisation - it really is possible to hand-hold this combination at previously impossibly slow shutter speeds and still maintain critical sharpness.
The Canon R6 II now offers a class-leading burst shooting rate of 40fps with the electronic shutter, double that of its predecessor. It can also shoot at 12fps with the mechanical shutter, both modes supporting full auto exposure (AE) and auto focus (AF) tracking.
There's a tiny amount of viewfinder and LCD blackout between each frame when shooting at 40fps, but it's barely discernible to the naked eye.
Incredibly the R6 Mark II can record 1,000 or more compressed raw images when shooting at 12fps before its buffer becomes full. The buffer is much smaller when using the 40fps mode at 190 JPEGs, 140 Compressed Raws, or 75 Uncompressed RAWs.
There's also a new Raw burst mode in which the camera can shoot at 30fps with 0.5 seconds of pre-capture built-in which should help even more with capturing that decisive sporting or wildlife moment.
The R6 II is the first Canon camera to feature the next generation Dual Pixel CMOS AF II focusing system for both stills and video. Billed as the world’s fastest AF, the camera is capable of focusing in as little as 0.05 seconds.
It offers 4,897 manually selectable and 1,053 automatically selectable AF points with 100% frame coverage.
Impressively the EOS R6 Mark II can also focus in light levels as low as -6.5EV (when used with an F1.2 lens), which is a real boon to low-light shooting/
Thanks to its Digic X processor and new sensor, the EOS R6 Mark II even better deep-learning based automatic face, eye and animal AF tracking modes than the R6 Mark I.
The improved AI tracking now additionally recognises horses, aircraft and trains as well as the humans, dogs, cats and birds that the original version could automatically detect.
Cleverly, if the camera is set to Face-only AF and the tracked subject exits the frame, it won't automatically then focus on the background, instead re-focusing on the face when it reenters the scene.
The newer model also now features a special auto-select mode for subjects, plus the same Flexible AF mode from the EOS R3, and eye tracking now functions in all AF modes.
There's a new On/Off/Lock switch on the right hand side of the top-plate, with the camera leaping into life almost instantly, and a new Camera/Movie switch over on the left. The multi-controller on the rear has been subtly redesigned, and Canon's latest multi-function shoe has been implemented.
Otherwise you'll feel instantly at home with the Mark II version if you're upgrading from the original R6.
There's a small but responsive shutter release button at the top of the handgrip, with the tiny M-Fn behind it. This provides quick access to some of the camera's key controls, including ISO, continuous shooting, AF, white balance and exposure compensation.
Behind that is the front control dial for principally setting the aperture or shutter speed, with a small, red one-touch movie record button behind it sitting proud of the camera body.
The Lock button on the EOS R6 has now been incorporated into the Off/Lock/On switch on the new EOS R6 Mark II. As its name suggests, this locks the two control dials on top of the camera and the rear control wheel so that you can't accidentally change the camera's key settings.
Completing the top of the camera is the rear control dial that's ideally placed for thumb operation and the new Camera/Movie switch on the left, which makes it much more intuitive to switch between these two shooting modes.
The Canon R6 II offers two brand new shooting modes - multiple exposure mode (JPEGs only) and a Panorama mode, as previously seen on the recently introduced EOS R7. It also offers in-camera focus bracketing which will be a big pull for many stills photographers.
Turning to the rear of the Canon R6 II, it offers an array of controls that will be instantly familiar to anyone who has used an EOS 5-series DSLR camera before, including the classic Canon control wheel. There's also a slightly redesigned joystick that is a little more tactile than the one found on the EOS R6.
Alongside the Menu bottom on the far left is the Rate button, which allows you to assign star ratings to your images during playback (Off, 1-5 stars).
The EOS R6 Mark II has exactly the the 0.5-inch 3.69 million dot EVF as the EOS R6, which is still impressive to look through, working up to 120fps for minimal lag when shooting fast-moving subjects.
The new model now incorporates a special OVF simulation mode, similar to the one on the EOS R3, which uses HDR technology to simulate a more "real-world" view of the scene.
One of the main control innovations on the EOS R6 Mark II is the inclusion of the classic Canon control wheel with the SET button at its heart, which will be instantly familiar to anyone who has used a Canon EOS 5-series DSLR camera before.
The one on the EOS R6 Mark II actually serves less purpose than the one on the EOS 5-series, though, simply because there are already two control dials on top of the camera for setting the aperture and shutter speed, and one on the RF lenses which can be usefully configured to control the ISO speed, amongst other things.
So the classic Canon control wheel is mainly used for quickly scrolling through the menu system and during image playback instead. As the camera also has a touch-screen, both of these functions can be more quickly and intuitively controlled via touch, which does beg the question as to why Canon decided to include the control wheel at all.
The EOS R6 Mark II has exactly the same 3-inch, 1.62 million dot, vari-angle LCD screen as on the original model, which tilts out to the side and faces forwards for more convenient vlogging and selfies. It can also be usefully folded flat against the back of the camera to protect it when in transit in a camera bag.
A proximity sensor is located directly beneath the viewfinder, which automatically switches between the EVF and LCD screen. When the LCD screen is swung outwards, the EVF is cleverly turned off automatically.
A tilting LCD screen always helps to encourage shooting from creative angles and it also helps make the EOS R6 Mark II ideally suited to movie-shooting.
As mentioned above, the LCD screen is touch-sensitive, allowing you to control everything from setting the AF point and firing the shutter, navigating the menu systems and browsing your images during playback. It's a very precise, responsive system that's a veritable joy to use.
Alongside the rear joystick are three classic Canon controls - the AF-On button for people who prefer back-button focusing, the Auto-exposure Lock button (denoted by a star) and the AF area selection button which makes it easier to switch the autofocus point when holding the camera to your eye.
Underneath the AF-On button are a cluster of three buttons - the Magnification button, Info Button and the Quick button which opens the Quick Control screen, which provides instant access to 10 key camera controls.
Completing the rear of the EOS R6 Mark II are the self-explanatory Playback and Delete buttons located underneath the rear control wheel.
On the right hand-side of the camera is the memory card compartment. The EOS R6 Mark II continues to support two SD UHS II cards via dual slots, and you can choose to record to both cards simultaneously.
Given that it can now shoot at 40fps, it would have been great if the faster CFExpress standard had been incorporated, but maybe that's something that we'll see on a future Mark III.
On the left hand-side of the camera are three rubber flaps housing five different connections. The Canon EOS R6 Mark II has a microphone port, headphone jack, remote control port, USB-3 port and a mini HDMI connection - all the things that any enthusiast photographer or videographer would need from a connectivity point of view, other than a full-size HDMI port.
The R6 II continues to use the same LP-E6NH long life battery that is also supplied with the original R6, but Canon have somehow managed to significantly extend the CIPA-rated battery life from 380 shots when using the EVF to 450, and from 510 shots when using the LCD screen to 760.
If one battery isn't enough for you, the EOS R6 Mark II is compatible with exactly the same BG-R10 Battery Grip that its predecessor supported, again making upgrading easier.
It gives users the ability to power the R6 II using two batteries (LP-E6/N/NH) and also offers duplicate controls for easier vertical shooting. Note that the batteries do have to be charged whilst the grip is fitted on-camera.
The Canon EOS R6 II can record 4K video up to 60p in 10-bit, achieved through oversampling from 6K, promising slightly better quality than the original R6 which oversampled from 5.1K. It also ups the ante somewhat by offering 6K/60p ProRes Raw recording, but only externally via HDMI rather than internally.
1080p slow-motion recording is still available with AF support, but the maximum frame rate has been increased up to 180fps on the new model. There's also no longer a 30-min time limit on recording as on the original R6 and Canon claim that rolling shutter has been reduced.
Cleverly, if the camera is set to Face-only AF and the tracked subject exits the frame, it won't automatically then focus on the background, instead re-focusing on the face when it reenters the scene.
The Mark II R6 also offers several new video features like focus breathing correction, a false colour exposure aid, a 3/5 second pre-recording function, CLog3 profile, and a quick control screen just for video.
With built-in updated Bluetooth v.5 and Wi-Fi (5GHz) support, the EOS R6 Mark II can be easily connected to a smartphone and networks allowing high-speed file sharing and FTP/FTPS transfer.
The R6 II can also be remotely controlled using Canon's Camera Connect 3.0.0 and EOS Utility apps and tethered to a PC or Mac via Wi-Fi or high-speed USB 3.2. It also now offers the ability to operate both as a webcam or for live streaming via UVC/UAC.
Image Quality
All of the sample images in this review were taken using the 24 megapixel Fine JPEG setting, which gives an average image size of around 8Mb.
The Canon EOS R6 Mark II produced still images of outstanding quality during the review period.
This camera produces noise-free JPEG images from ISO 50 all the way up to ISO 12800, with noise first appearing at ISO 25600. The faster settings of 51200 and 102400 display quite a lot of noise, but they're still fine to use for making smaller prints and web images. Even the fastest expanded setting of ISO 204800 can be used at a push.
The EOS R6 Mark II proved to be very capable in low-light, with the maximum shutter speed of 30 seconds and the Bulb mode allowing you to capture enough light in all situations.
The various different Picture Styles and Creative Effects are a real benefit, all of which can be previewed before you take the shot, as are the HDR settings, focus stacking and multiple exposure modes.
Support for the latest HEIF 10-bit file format is still a little thin on the ground, but should offer a degree of future-proofing if it's more widely adopted.

JPEG vs HEIF
Compared with the 8 bits (256-level greyscale) of the JPEG format, HEIF is capable of storing image data at 10 bits (1024-level greyscale) or higher, and also supports the Rec. 2020 standard, which boasts an extremely wide color gamut.
What’s more, HEIF is compatible with the HEVC (H.265) codec, which offers a higher compression efficiency in storage compared with JPEG files of the same image quality.

Conclusion
The new Canon EOS R6 II is a solid rather than spectacular upgrade of the 2-year-old original R6., but considering that the 2020 model was already so good, that's certainly no bad thing.
Canon have sensibly chosen to refine, rather than revolutionize, what was already a very capable camera, principally improving its burst shooting capabilities and auto-focus system along with incorporating 20% more resolution, more capable video and improved connectivity.
Canon have tweaked a few things externally, most notably implementing the new On/Off/Lock and Camera/Movie switches, but otherwise the two models are virtually indistinguishable, which is no bad thing if you're upgrading from the already logically thought out original.
With the sports-focused EOS R3 and 8K-shooting R5 positioned above it in the Canon hierarchy, it's perhaps easy to overlook the R6 II, but it would be a mistake to do that as this is the most well-rounded model in the line-up.
The R6 continues to be a much more affordable proposition that still delivers almost everything that an enthusiast photographer or videographer could possibly want, buoyed by the addition of the new sensor, 40fps burst shooting, more versatile auto-focusing and unlimited video recording.
Overall, the new R6 Mark II is a sensible evolution of a an already great camera, adding enough new features and extra performance to keep it both competitive and still worthy of our highest 5-star Essential award.

Review Roundup
Reviews of the Canon EOS R6 Mark II from around the web.
digitalcameraworld.com »
What didn't Canon include in this camera? It has 6K video, an EOS R3-beating shooting speed, the best IBIS in the business, and astounding brand-new AI autofocus modes. This is hands-down the best camera you can buy right now in this price range. It is even nipping at the heels of its big brother the Canon EOS R5. In fact, only its lower megapixel count and its slower SD cards are holding it back from being a true challenger.
