A Review of the Canon EOS R6 Camera

The Canon EOS R5 has received a ton of fanfare for its highly impressive features, but its companion, the EOS R6, is also a highly capable camera and costs significantly less than the EOS R5. This excellent video review takes a deep look at the camera and the kind of performance and image quality you can expect from it in practice. 

Coming to you from Dustin Abbott, this great video review takes a look at the new Canon EOS R6 camera. As impressive as the EOS R5 is, if you do not need its high levels of resolution or 8K raw video or you do not want to spend the extra money, you can get almost all of its other features in the EOS R6 at a much lower price. It features a 20-megapixel sensor, in-body image stabilization of up to eight stops, 1,053 focus points, a 3.69-million-dot EVF with 0.76x magnification, a continuous burst rate of up to 20 fps (using the electronic shutter, 12 fps using the mechanical), 4K at 60 fps, dual UHS-II card slots, built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and a fully articulating rear LCD. Altogether, the EOS R6 looks like a very well balanced camera. Check out the video above for Abbott's full thoughts on the camera.

DA’s reviews are always good, definitely subscribe.

4K 120 FPS is the middle of the road for bird videos. 180 would be better.

You really want slow motion when you want to see what the small birds are doing. As I understand slow motion is standard for broadcasting.

As far as cooling goes, this has been a cockup from Canon. Perhaps not as big as the 1D4 user interface, but still pretty bad. Both the heath sink and the original software workaround is bad, if not inept.
