Our take on the Canon EOS R6 Mark II Mirrorless Camera

The Canon EOS R6 Mark II is a full-frame mirrorless camera built around a 24.2 MP CMOS sensor with in-body image stabilization, a 3-inch display, and Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. It is a hybrid body aimed at both stills and video, with fast autofocus and strong low-light performance. The stop-motion firmware features listed on this page are a niche add-on, not the camera's main appeal. Its latest best price sits at the low end of its recent range, making it a solid buy for a current-generation full-frame body.

Questions and answers

Is the R6 Mark II worth it over the original R6?
Yes for most buyers. The Mark II adds a higher-resolution sensor, better subject detection, and improved video, so the upgrade is meaningful if you shoot action or video. If you mostly shoot static subjects, the original R6 still holds up.
How does it compare with the Sony A7 IV?
The R6 Mark II has faster burst shooting and stronger stabilization, while the A7 IV offers a higher-resolution 33 MP sensor and a wider third-party lens selection. Choose Canon for autofocus speed and Sony for resolution and lens value.
How is the battery life?
Expect roughly 500 to 700 shots per charge for stills, less for video. Carry a spare battery for weddings or long event days.
What is in the box?
The body, a battery, a charger, a strap, and a body cap. A lens is not included unless the listing specifies a kit.
Does it work with EF lenses?
Yes, with the Canon EF-EOS R mount adapter. Autofocus and stabilization work well, though adapted lenses add bulk.
When is it cheapest?
Prices tend to drop during major sales events and when a successor is announced. The current best price is already near the low end of its recent range.
