The EOS R6 Mark II features improved resolution compared to its predecessor. A Canon-developed 35 mm full-frame CMOS sensor with approximately 24.2 effective megapixels enables the camera to capture sharp and detailed images, even in low-light scenarios. Regardless of conditions - whether day or night, indoor or outdoor - dark portions of the image, even at high ISO speeds and increased sensitivity, are rendered with low noise.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Focusing Nightmare! Wedding photographer beware! THE FOCUS IS AWFUL!!!! I recently upgraded to the Mark II, expecting enhanced performance for my wedding photography. Unfortunately, the autofocus was severely disappointing. As a wedding photographer, capturing fleeting moments is crucial, especially during ceremonies, and the Mark II's inconsistent focus caused me to miss key shots. This experience forced me to switch back to my reliable R6, which has consistently delivered the sharp, accurate focus I need. For anyone relying on precise autofocus in fast-paced wedding settings, I recommend sticking with the classic R6 until the Mark II's issues are resolved.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Canon experience using Rakuten discount link. The R6 camera itself was great. I have many Nikon lenses to consider when switching to Canon. I chose it over any Nikon mirrorless offering because it had better ergonomics. I was not thrilled with Canon's limited lens selection and how they don't license their mount to other manufacturers. I used a Rakuten link to purchase thinking I got 15% cash back. The discount shows up in my Rakuten acct but is listed at INELIGIBLE. I would have never purchased at full price. I will be returning this if I can't resolve within the return period. Canon lets Rakuten drive business to their online store. They need to make sure there is a seamless experience. Canon customer service says they have nothing to do with Rakuten. Rakuten says they can't confirm discount until they hear back from Canon which can take 45 days. That's too long a time period. The offer said cash back 'in a few days'. Looks like this is going to be returned to Canon unless they can get in touch with Rakuten to expedite the confirmation of my 15% cash back discount... which is over $600. Otherwise I feel tricked into paying full price. The Rakuten/Canon partnership can't be trusted.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great set of features with little sacrifice at the price. A few quirks Camera bought in December 2023 to replace the aging 5D mark III and encouraged by experience with already owned R10. Excellent set of features, a lot of user customization options and compatibility with EF lenses made me feel at home right away. There are some minor quirks that lower the score however. What I like: + image quality, plain and simple; + responsive operation with a lot of customization (you can assign mode of operation for all dials and most of the buttons and change information on display/EVF as you see fit) + absolutely great burst modes, even with mechanical shutter, large buffer and full support for UHS-II cards; + no problem using EF lenses with mount ring, assortment of cheap(er) RF lenses grows as months go by; + new features are quite intuitive to use but the camera still maintains a familiar Canon look and feel; + built-in wireless communication and flawless remote control; What I don't like: + my camera started exhibiting IBIS issues after just 4 months of use which, while never being officially acknowledged, went away with sensor assembly replacement (under warranty); + when using digital shutter there's a very subtle banding (and to be fair, on properly exposed photos will most likely never be noticeable unless you're know what to look for, but nevertheless, and I confirmed it with a few R6m2 owners, it's there); + it was the first ever Canon camera that I experienced crashing (just once though).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from What more do you want if you are not a professional? I bought this camera after owning the Canon R. I have had it for almost two years and appreciate all of its features. I also had to have an R5 in my arsenal. Guess what, I sold it as I like the R6 MKii better. The batteries last longer, the cards are easier to find if you need them. I put a RG-10 grip adapter on my unit and love it. The camera almost feels like an R3. No complaints on this unit, actually thinking of a second one just to have as a spare.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Not good for wedding photography and videographyy. Crashes when switching from photo to video settings, don’t do this during a wedding ceremony or you’ll be in trouble… yes this did happen to me and luckily removing the battery and reinstalling saved me in time. Battery lasts longer, auto focus is great. Buttons have been switched around and I hate it actually. Wish they had just left the buttons the same at the r5 and r6… big issue for me. Ultimately the crashing is bad news if you are a wedding photographer and videographer like myself. I have my back ups and don’t switch settings in situations like ceremony with this camera anymore. Wish I could exchange for or get a refund..

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Focus issues from day one. 25+ year Canon user. I bought this over a year ago and have been nothing but frustrated with it since. I shoot for as the Communication Director and Yearbook Advisor for a school and am taking ALL kinds of shots at many different types of events. I have been a Canon user for over 25 years and this R6 is by far the worst camera I have ever used. The focusing issues are the worst - this camera can NOT choose what to focus on ever. Regret this purchase and am selling it. I advise you not to buy until they get the mirrorless technology more dialed in and these cameras start getting better reviews.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice Step Up From R6 I have the EOS R6 and that is a nice camera so when this one came out and knew I wanted to upgrade because of the increased pixels from 20 to 24, and better autofocus. I saw that it was $500 off and I knew that rarely happened, so I bought it then. As reviews noted the autofocus is nice improvement from the R6. I have been able to get good focus on moving targets at a much higher rate with this camera. I am really enjoying using it. For what it is, this is a great camera. I didn't give it 5 stars only because it doesn't have all the bells and whistles the R5 MII has.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Most practical camera body Long-time Canon user - 35mm SLR from 1968, APS-C DSLRs since 2005, R7 since 2022. Just added the R6 for better low-light performance and more reliable autofocus. Keeping the R7 for hiking and as a daytime teleconverter, but the 1/3 reduction in megapixels is well outweighed by the ability to shoot at higher ISOs. The two identical v90 SDXC card slots allow shooting a real-time backup, something that the models with one CF card slots can't do. Get one of those if you're a sports or high-spec video shooter, but the R6 is the sweet spot for the generalist photographer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I don’t miss my R5. This is a great camera! My R5 was stolen so I got the R6 mk2 and I wasn’t sure I could live with the 24 megapixels. As it turns out there are several things I like about it more than my R5. I shot some images at 25600 iso and I was amazed at how clean and usable the images were (when exposed correctly). In my estimation the R6MK2 is about a full stop better when it comes to shooting high ISO. I also think the dynamic range is slightly better. It has the same autofocus system as the R3 and it is better than the already great R5. The raw burst mode is pretty cool as it packs kind of like the pre shooting mode on the R5 mk2 (although it is a bit more cumbersome). The 40 frames per second shooting speed is ridiculously good and I don’t hit the buffer that often. I have only been shooting in electronic shutter mode and the rolling shutter is very minimal (I actually haven’t noticed at all) and it’s better than my R5. I don’t shoot much video but I can say that it’s nice to not have a 30 minute maximum time limit of continuous video shooting. There isn’t an over heating issue either. I’ve read and been told that the 6k over sampling is better than the 8k of the R5 but again I’m not much of a video shooter. There are many other smaller features that the R5 doesn’t have as well. Overall the only drawback is the 24 megapixel sensor not being a 45 megapixel sensor. But I have tried some heavy cropping to test it and I was very pleasantly surprised at the detail I got. Plus if you have Gigapixel you can upsize cropped images. So ultimately I honestly like it better than my R5… that is strange to say but it really is an amazing camera especially for the price.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Quality Control Nightmare Have owned this camera since release and have had nothing but issues with it. Freezes intermittently every single shoot. Crashes often when switching between photo and video and occasionally crashes while taking photos. Have sent the camera to Canon multiple times and they have not helped or replaced under warranty so I'm stuck with it. It's now a backup to my R6 and R5 which have worked flawlessly. Skip this camera and get something else.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Would NOT recommend for wedding photographers I’ve used this camera for about a year, including one full wedding season, and unfortunately, I can’t recommend it. While the image quality is solid and the autofocus is a noticeable improvement over my Mark IV, the camera’s reliability leaves much to be desired. It crashes constantly, which has been incredibly frustrating. I used the Mark IV for five years without experiencing any similar issues, so I’m particularly disappointed that Canon released a product with such glaring flaws. I’ve given it 2 stars solely for the image quality and autofocus improvements, but the reliability problems make it hard to justify this camera for demanding situations like weddings.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Noise. No matter what. I have three of these camera bodies. I seriously struggle with noise even when properly exposed. I have invested several thousands of dollars into canon. I have a multitude of RF lenses as well so I know the lens is not the issue. I update firmware any chance I have as well. No matter WHAT I do. It’s noisy. It takes away from the detail and it kinda makes me want to switch to Sony….even though, I’ve spent almost $6,000 in camera body’s alone….not to mention $8,000 in lenses….i am probably going to have to rent a different camera body my next wedding to make sure I can contractually deliver.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from All good - till it isn't. I purchased this camera 2 months ago. I have been a Canon shooter for over 12 years. My last camera was the 5D Mark III. I used this camera in a professional capacity for over 10 years - no issues at all. Never once sent back for repairs, only regular cleaning. I replaced this camera with the R6 Mark II. Two months in and it has been sent to Canon with an issue with "crazy random changes in settings". I was in the middle of a shoot and suddenly the camera went haywire with crazy high iso and shutter speed settings. Two phone calls to Canon service and I reset the default settings, etc as instructed - with no luck. I sent the camera back to Canon for servicing. I received a phone call that it was "user error". I must have "touched something" on the back of the camera and that's what caused the crazy iso and shutter speed settings. It is a "must" to shoot in lock I was told by the person calling from Canon. And this is the camera I purchased to depend on - SMH. Two months in...

Rated 5 out of 5 by from very easy to use I'm not a professional photographer. However, I've owned another higher end camera for about 10 years and it is so clunky and tedious to use. Some shooting scenarios don't allow much time for changing and checking settings. With the EOS R6 markII white balance, exposure and even depth of field can be viewed on the display before even taking a shot. No replacement for a proper viewing on a high definition monitor, but has improved my number of great shots infinitely. This makes my life so much easier and I really enjoy using it! Plus, the menus are a breeze to navigate and the customizability is amazing. My old camera has the same pixel count, but the images captures by the Canon seem to be double especially in lower light situations. I did purchase four "L series" lenses for the body as well. Not cheap, but very high quality AND all of them still made in Japan (very important to me!) Can't say enough good about this camera or the lenses. Excited to get more time using them and capturing some amazing images.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good overall camera, solid feel. Upgraded from 6D & 7D. Charged the battery, downloaded the manual and started to learn. Great burst shots. The “Rate” button is no value (if you like the image then use protect to prevent accidental erasure). On the Plus side you can shoot RAW in all creative and assisted modes. Bracketed shots generated an on-camera error for me, but there is a separate HDR mode to try. Overall, a good camera to replace my 12-year-old gear. The “Control Ring” functionality is a solution in search of a problem.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Delay shutter and miss capturing important moments Original Review: 06/21/2023 I wanted to share my recent experience with the R6 Mark II (24-105 F4 Lens Kit) camera that I purchased. Overall, I am generally satisfied with its performance, but there is one specific issue I encountered related to the LCD screen. While using the LCD to compose my shots, I noticed a noticeable delay in the shutter response. For example, when I wanted to capture the moment my son smiles and press the shutter button, the camera would capture the smile a fraction of a second later than intended. Similarly, when attempting to capture the exact moment when someone's eyes open, the camera often captured moments when their eyes were closed instead. This resulted in several photos with such discrepancies when using the LCD screen. Interestingly, we did not experience any similar issues with our Canon RP camera. This situation led me to question whether my R6 Mark II unit might be defective, as it is concerning to receive a brand-new camera with such performance problems. Despite my efforts to find similar issues online, I could not locate anyone else with the same problem, which makes me think that I may have received a faulty unit from Canon. It is disheartening to encounter this issue right out of the box. As a result, I have decided to initiate a return Canon's RMA service. I also placed a new order for the same camera with lens as well. Once I receive the new camera, I will thoroughly test it again and provide an update here regarding whether or not the same issue persists. Follow up Review: 07/05/2023 This is an update regarding my previous review where I discussed the problem of missing important moments due to a delay in the shutter. I recently acquired another brand new R6 Mark II, and to my surprise, I encountered the exact same issue once again. However, I have finally discovered a SOLUTION that resolves this problem. By disabling Image Review in Option 3, the camera operates flawlessly when capturing images using the LCD. I hope that my review will prompt the Canon Engineering Team to reevaluate the situation and promptly release a firmware update to address this issue.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very Happy Long time Canon user, I LOVE the R6II! The autofocus is superb. The battery life is good, not SLR good but better than my previous mirrorless cameras. Of course Canon ergonomics are the best. My EF lenses work better on the R series cameras than on my DSLRs, focus is faster and more accurate. There really isn't anything I don't like about it, probably first time I've ever said that about a camera and I have about 5 DSLRs, about 10 point and shoots and one other mirrorless.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So glad I bought this camera!! For the past few years, I have been shooting with a Canon 80D, then 90D, both DSLR systems, and still love and use my 90D. This past February 2023, I decided to buy my first mirrorless camera, the R6 MK II (plus the RF 100-400mm, and EF-RF lens adaptor), and can't tell you enough how glad I am for acquiring that camera. I haven't even finished setting up the camera for wildlife shots yet, but already took some shots and OMG ... what an amazing camera it is!! I'm really 100% satisfied with this purchase and can recommend to anyone still undecided to go ahead and commit to that purchase. The R6 MK II is an absolute fantastic system. Thank you Canon!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from An incredible body that's part of an incredible system This camera is an incredible all-rounder, and I expect it to be more than enough camera for my needs for years to come. I started my journey as an amateur photographer with a Rebel XSi. From there I leapt to a flagship APS-C DSLR from another manufacturer, but recently decided to make the switch to mirrorless and used it as an opportunity to start fresh - mirrorless, full frame, native lenses. I obsessed over which system to invest in and ultimately chose to return to Canon because I believe they have the best full frame mirrorless system currently available, and that this is the best all-around body currently available at this price point. Paired with the RF 24-105mm F4 L IS USM lens, this camera is a beast. The autofocus system and its performance with that lens (and presumably many other in the system) is fantastic. The aspect I most dislike is the body+lens overall size and weight is still a bit much for me for something like hiking or street photography, but that's a tradeoff I chose willingly by buying a full frame camera, and for the types of photography I'm going to use this camera for, the advantages are worth that tradeoff. I will likely buy into another system better suited for something like hiking in the future, in addition to using the EOS R system for my full frame photography.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great camera overall. I have had this camera for 8 months and absolutely love it. Starting out was a bit of a different story but it has been a great upgrade from my 7DMKII. The increase in resolution from the extra pixels and less aggressive AA filter are very welcome. The faster readout speed of the sensor is great, I pretty much shoot entirely electronic shutter unless using flash. I love the video features, though I would prefer an All-I option for at least the 4k24 but IPB looks fine for most uses. That being said there are some differences from DSLRs that could be tripping some people up. I've read the 3 one star reviews and determined a few things that might be the cause of the issues they are having. I think the person with the "shutter delay" is not shooting electronic first curtain, hence the delay. I'm fairly certain that is explained in the manual that there will be a slight delay just in how the mirrorless camera has to operate the mechanical curtains. I have tried to replicate the issue using only the info provided in the review and that is my conclusion. The second person is probably shooting with the LCD panel facing out and inadvertently touching the settings, I don't know if the 5DIII had a touch screen, you can lock the settings and make sure to lock the touch function in the settings. You can set the lock so that it only disables touch on the LCD panel, so you can still use the exposure triangle dials and leave the display facing out. The last one could just be flex zone auto focus, I am not a fan. You can still set the camera to use spot autofocus like the DSLRs and disable subject detect, if that is how you want to roll. I tend to use spot detect in combination with eye detect on the back button and that has worked out in my use case. there is a feature for the viewfinder to replicate how a DSLR might look optically, then you lose the exposure simulation but your meter is still there for reference. Hope this helps anyone in determining if they want to make the switch to mirrorless.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The mirrorless I've been waiting for. I've had the R6-II for about 5 days now, coming from a 6D-II. It's been a steep learning curve, as the AF system does so much. But I've snapped about 500 shots with it so far, and it's been flawless. It's everything I hoped it would be, and then some. I find that, though complex, I have enough flexibility in button and dial assignments to configure the camera for optimum flexibility and speed of use. I'm very pleased with everything about it, but more importantly, I'm very impressed with the kinds of images I've been able to capture with it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So far so GREAT Ordered around Thanksgiving time .. plus mount adapter and grip.. got those quickly, body was backordered of course, but received the body just before Christmas and used a ton during holiday basketball tournaments and hockey.. in good and not so good light. Coming from the 5D MK IV, and previously 7D MK II bodies.. the lack of noise in higher ISO when needed is incredible. Haven't done any video, and likely won't so I can't talk about testing THAT, but loving the photos with my non-R lenses. It took me a few basketball games the first day of holiday tourney to adjust to the different style viewfinder, and to use menus and dials. It's been incredible with WB etc. It seems ISO 2000 is a step brighter than the 5D MK IV also, as I was in one of the darker gyms the other day and didn't raise the ISO. I'm still an LCD reviewer so I've been looking at my photos that way, and have been happy with battery life with the screen flipped so I can see it. I adjusted quickly to the center point jumping when hitting my face on the LCD by getting close to the viewfinder sensor and not pressing to my face until I could see the viewfinder screen. Also learned quickly to press the joystick to re-center. Build quality seems as good as any of the many Canon bodies I've previously had, or still have.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Crazy good auto focus I traded off one of my 1Dx camera bodies for this camera and really liking it more every day. The image quality is excellent. The auto focus is crazy good. I shot college football one day and the next did a kid's senior pictures. Set up two separate focus buttons on the back. One for the football stadium and another with the eye detection for the senior pics. Less that 1% didn't hit the mark. Color was fantastic. Added the battery grip for extra power (but really didn't need it) Very power friendly using the electronic shutter. 2000 shots at the football game and didn't even go through half the battery. There's still a lot that I have to figure out with this camera. Can't speak to the video features because I don't shoot video. Really like having the 3 "wheels" for controls. The ability to scroll across ISO is great. Very easy camera to shoot full manual if you wanted. And another thing I really like that it has a "green box" mode so I can hand the camera to my wife and she can take a good picture (couldn't do that with the 1Dx). Few things I do miss or would like to see. I miss the weight and build vs the 1Dx (you could drive nails with that beast). The feel of this camera is not as sturdy. A light behind the screen on top of the camera would be a nice feature. Currently trying to figure out how to fit the Think Tank rain covers to it given the stock eyepiece. I don't really like how "exposed" the diopter control wheel is. Too easy to move it accidentally. Little, nit-picky things; but overall I really do like this camera and the more I dig into it, the more I like it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from 50/50 with Quality Control. Camera is Near perfect if Working Correctl This is a review of both the R6 and R6ii. In all honestly from both my personal experiences and 4 other professional photographers the entire line of these R Series cameras are a 50/50 when it comes to quality control. Which is very concerning especially if you drop THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS for a state of the art camera to have on going issues with. These cameras should be top notch and thoroughly tested with a good success rate so just for everyone please beware. To make a long story short, I orginally purchased the Original R6 when it was first released back in 2020. I was extremley excited as it had practically everything I needed in a camera. But right away i started having a variety of issues. The camera would lock up and freeze on me constantly. It would happen at random times, i would be doing nothing but taking simple shots in single focus and then it would freeze and i would be stuck having to take the battery out to reset it. The codecs and files would be so harsh on my brand new PC and wouldnt be read. It was just a massive problem to take simple photos and video and upload. The wobble situation in video when using a wide angle was just horrendous and unusable for professional work. After freezing and locking up on me during both a wedding and a bar mitsvah i just couldnt trust it and decided to send it in. Canon had then replaced that one stating that it was defective. On my 2nd copy of the R6 everything was great for about a month. Then i noticed i started to do long exposures for about 90 seconds the camera would randomly just take the exposure at 23 seconds or 40 seconds it kept messing up. I contacted canon again and they stated a new firmware was released to help rectify that issue. Well that firmware update still didnt help. Then my camera after the update started to freeze again. Then about 4 months in with my 2nd copy i got an Err70 code which pretty much bricked my camera. After 2 tries and 2 copies i gave up and went back to my DSLR as it was so much more reliable. Then the r6ii was released. I was able to test one out at a recent 1 week long Photography event and i was seriously blown away! it was probably the best camera autofocusing systems i had ever used. Everything ran completley smooth, no freezing locks ups, not a single issue the entire time. After my experience i felt like they made drastic and great improvements from the original version. So i decided to buy a R6ii. Well guess what just to my luck upon getting the camera the Focusing system was doing the strangest of things it would almost half way focus on a subject and be in focus on the left but not in the midlde and then be focused on the right again. This time i purchased it from best buy. When i took it back to best buy with my warranty they sent it into canon. Canon stated that it had a misaligned sensor and it needed to be replaced. JUST WOW! i was then given my now recent copy of the R6ii and it actually works perfectly after about 6 months of use it has not given me a single problem. So the fact that these cameras are great i feel that the quality control is still a serious serious issue. So just be cautious. I have friends who have purcahsed the R5, R6 and Eos R and 3/8 copies have failed on them. As long as they work as they are supposed to i feel that they are FANTASTIC CAMERAS.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy Transition An easy transition from my Canon EOS 70D DSLR. Overall, once i got used to the controls it was easy to take pictures and make changes on the fly. I am very pleased with the results and ease of use. With the EOS adapter I can use my L Series lenses.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from R6 Mark II upgrade from EOS R As a photographer of indoor performances and outdoor events I have noticed the following improvements of the R6 Mark II over the EOS R: 1) Greatly improved focusing and tracking of performers in low light situations. 2) Greatly improved noise performance in low light/high ISO conditions. 3) Greatly improved color rendition in low light/high ISO conditions. 4) Improved ergonomics - especially for manual control of shutter speed/aperture/ISO. 5) Improved overall look (color, sharpness, detail) of photographs (both indoor and outdoor) despite smaller (no. of pixels) sensor. 6) Improved ability for high speed shooting.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from For The Birds My main reason to buy this camera was to photograph birds in flight. I had been using a 7Dii but I had great difficulty tracking the bird while shooting because the viewfinder was going dark for each shot. Tracking with the bird with this R6 is SO much easier. The camera does a good job of focusing on the rapidly moving bird, usually picking its head. So far I have used the 20 fps setting to capture a five second burst as the bird goes past. I have only had the camera for a few weeks so I have not explored its other capabilities fully yet.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I'm so glad that I made the investment ! I preordered my EOS R6 Mark II with an RF 24-105mm f4 L IS USM lens on Nov 17, 2022, prior to its U.S. release and received it on Jan 31, 2023. My first mirrorless camera is an EOS M50 Mark II and liked it so much that I decided to upgrade to a full frame Canon mirrorless camera. After researching which model would best suit my needs, I decided on the EOS R6 Mark II with the RF 24-105mm lens. I've had the set up for 8 plus months now and have enjoyed every minute shooting with it. Love it so much that I purchased a Canon RF70-200mm L IS USM lens, a Sigma 150-600mm Contemporary and I'm now in the process of purchasing a Canon RF 15-35mm f 2.8 L IS USM lens to complete my set. The R6 Mark II is everything that Canon said it would be and more. Shooting wildlife, stills, sports and some architectural shots with the R6 Mark II is so much fun and easy that I'm always looking forward to my next shoot. I'm glad that I upgraded, and I highly recommend the EOS R6 Mark II mirrorless camera to anyone that is interested in getting one.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Terrible focusing I bought this camera to step into the mirrorless camera system coming from the 1DX series DSLR camera's and I am not impressed at all the focusing at least on the camera I had as it was terrible, it didn't matter what settings I used the pictures were not in focus, I sent it back. I'm sure I got the only R6 Mark II with bad focusing. The other problem I had while using the camera was the electronic view finder in it, I think that it should be at least 240Hz refresh rate if not more, because it is nothing like an optical view finder, its blurry when you pan with it, totally fine for portraits or landscapes things that don't move though. I was not impressed with this camera at all.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Disastrous experience- camera body and lens BOTH had problems What a disaster!! Bought the R6 mark 2 body and 2 lenses and an extender including the RF 100-400mm zoom. Photos were not quite sharp enough to be killer or enlarged. Ruined my bucket list trip to Alaska. Sent in to Canon and there were problems with BOTH THE CAMERA AND THE LENS, which they fixed for free. WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO QUALITY CONTROL?. I spent over $4,000 on Canon equipment, ruined my trip and Canon just didn’t care enough to make it right. Should have bought the Sony.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Mirrorless is for the birds! I received my R6 MKII body very quickly and started to work with it immediately. There is a lot to learn as far as use of the specialized features, a steep learning curve... but well worth the effort as the results are spectacular. My bird portraits are now sopt on with eyes so sharp you feel you were there. The high speed shots are so quick I'm catching the birds in "mid-blink". I have yet to capture some in-flight pictures, but I will persevere. Over all this is a great tool for my purposes. Thanks Canon!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Recommended but some things to watch out for The best camera for my situation, mainly kid's events between concerts, school events, sports, etc. The 24MP is perfect for these types of events since you need to shoot fast to capture the moment. Any higher and the SD cards wouldn't be able to keep up. Plus, why would you need more than 24MP? 24MP is huge can be printed poster size! Need to crop without losing MP? I learned to shoot better to avoid cropping. For those complaining about lock ups. I learned the hard way that the battery matters....a lot. The LP-E6NH that comes with it is a must, don't try to use your older batteries. If you need more batteries (recommended), the NH is becoming scarce, the LP-E6P designed for the R5mii works with a firmware update. No more lockups once I got the right batteries. Why? The newer bodies Canon is coming out with requires more power. The lockups can occur if you push the camera too far/fast and it simply doesn't have enough juice to do the tasks. As for autofocus issues, probably a settings issue. I've not had an issue with it so far and have shot thousands of photos of volleyball and other slower moving events. I had to pay special attention to the autofocus AI settings with subject detection. Back to battery, SD cards, and lock ups. If you don't have the right battery AND a fast enough SD card, you can lock up the R6mii. I had to upgrade to a V90 SD card capable of 300 MB/s to keep up with the burst shots. I tested this with an older battery vs an NH or P, the R6mii will turn your H+ drive mode green when you have the right battery/power to use this feature, meaning if you are low on battery with an NH or P battery, it won't reach full potential. It's the difference in around 7fps vs 40fps or a lock up. The one thing I wish this camera had: CFexpress. The burst mode is borderline too fast for SD cards. Lastly, coming from an 80D, this is a huge improvement. Love this camera and just know that it will amaze every time I pick it up. Hope this helps those shopping!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from lack of basic features No ALL-I in video mode and 10-bit video is only in C-log 3 and not available in standard mode. The older Canon EOS R has ALL-I and the older Canon R5 can record in 10-bit in standard mode. Even the older Sony A7iv has 10-bit 4.2.2 in standard mode. Come on Canon, update the firmware to allow 10-bit in standard mode. We don't all like to grade. Also, doesn't have the ability to save settings to an sd card like the R5 II.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from LOVE Canon r6 Mark ii (Prefer it over r5 Mark ii) I had a Canon r5 Mark ii, and I actually traded in it for the Canon r6 Mark ii and it was the best decision I could have made. First off, the 4K video quality is unreal, and the clarity in photos is virtually the same. But the biggest thing is, the r5 Mark ii doesn't have an internal fan, so I got warning on temperature after shooting for an hour... And so you have to buy the attachment fan (500 dollars) and it makes sound.. I have had no problems with overheating with the r6 Mark ii, because it has internal fan :) The quality is unreal, and I just LOVE IT. I mainly use it for Actor Reels and Headshot/Portrait photography and it has been a game changer. And also, the price point is soooo good for it!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best Camera Upgrade This camera has been my dream camera ever since I saw it. My first time shooting with it was with a gymnastics performance and I used it and oh my goodness, it was taking pictures like a dream. That's when I was really locked in that this was my next camera. Now that I have the camera, it is everything I've ever wanted and more. Every little thing is adjustable to the user and the quality and overall AI focus for the camera is a dream. At first the only reason I wasn't going to get this camera was because it was so expensive and as a college student I have to spend my money sparingly so figuring out if I wanted to actually buy this camera was a huge financial debate with myself. But as I use it more and see the quality with the shots I am getting I just fall in love with it more and more and realize that it really was worth it. This camera will live with me for a few years and is worth every penny.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Canon EOS R6 Mark II: Great Quality I’ve been really impressed with the Canon EOS R6 Mark II. It’s incredibly user-friendly, with an intuitive layout that works for both beginners and experienced photographers. The image quality is exceptional—sharp, vibrant, and with impressive dynamic range. That said, the camera does tend to overheat during extended use, I've only really noticed this when shooting 4K 60p video. While this can be a limitation for longer shoots, the downsampling from 6K still delivers fantastic video quality. I’m also excited to try the 6K ProRes RAW recording, but it’s a bit disappointing that I can’t record this directly from the USB-C cable to an SSD drive. Overall, it’s a great camera for most situations, but if you’re planning on shooting for extended periods, the overheating and the recording limitations might be something to consider.

My R6 Mark II arrived, and though it wasn't in original factory packaging, it sure looks brand-new.

While comparison shopping I found that most used R6 Mark II cameras were more expensive then the Canon refurbished one!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I LOVE This Camera (mostly) I love this camera, but I can only give it 3 stars for some of the issues that it has. First of all, I now have 2 of them for wildlife photography. They replaced my R3, my R5 and my R7. I love the speed (fps), the focusing accuracy, the quality of the sensor and the light weight. What I don't like is the rolling shutter (it's particularly obvious if you have light posts, buildings or fences in your background), the small buffer (I can get about 115 shots before the buffer fills) and the fact that it has SD card slots instead of at least 1 CFX card slot to help clear that buffer faster. I find the quality of the images to be superior. This is a high quality sensor that allows me to shoot at high shutter speed and high ISOs when necessary. If 2 of the above 3 weaknesses were resolved, this camera would get 5 stars from me. I can't wait to see what's in store for the rumored R6 Mark III.

I'm only getting 3 stops at best. Not quite enough sensor pixels for a lot of cropping. Overall, I'd say I really like it though. I just have to be aware of the limitations.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Battery is non-rechargable. No replacement provided after 6 weeks. The camera is great and is way better than my old 80D. The only gripe I have is that the battery that came with the camera is dead and cannot be recharged due to prolong storage on the shelf. I called both Canon Customer Service and Canon Purchase Department 3 separate times for a replacement, but I'm getting the run around. It has been 6 weeks and I'm told the order has been sent to the warehouse for fulfillment. How busy can you be, Canon, that you can't mail out a battery? This is totally unacceptable. If I purchase a camera and I am promised a set number of items in my order, then I accept everything to be fully functional.

Well, surprise surprise, the package arrived and the camera was very nicely packed with bubble wrap. As soon as I unwrapped it I realized that the body was brand new! There wasn’t a scratch or mark on it. The camera was in beautiful shape! I was quite happy about that. I saved about $500 by getting a refurbished body which looked basically new. I was a little worried about a clunking sound but discovered on google that the noise is the image stabilization device moving when the camera is powered off. The camera powered on normally and the screen was perfectly clean and new and beautiful! I’m super happy with Canon!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Canon Online Store return process is terrible. The R6 Mark II was a great camera but I decided I did not want a FF over APS-C and did not like carrying two camera bodies. The Canon Online Store received my return on Friday, May 9th. I still don’t have a refund almost a month later, multiple phone calls, and promises to expedite the process. This is unacceptable and terrible customer service. I will never purchase from the Canon Online Store again, my faith in your brand is weakened, and if this isn’t resolved soon I will leave the Canon brand and get a new system. I’m middle-aged, no kids, no debt, and plenty of spending budget for a hobby I love. If this is how Canon is going to treat me as a customer and hold my money hostage then I’ll give future dollars to another company (there are plenty out there who also make great cameras.) Have a nice day.

Now I am looking for refurbished RF lenses to go with the camera. I currently own a Canon 80D and and a 6D cameras as well.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Disappointed with Canon's frequent price changes I'm very disappointed with Canon's frequent price changes. It's not a gradual decrease or increase—instead, the price fluctuates significantly. I've been keeping an eye on the product's price even after my purchase, and just a few weeks later, it dropped by almost $500 compared to what I paid. Then it went up again, only to decrease once more.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Super super good! Great camera! This thing is a workhorse indeed. Still trying to figure out the astro applications it has but the IBIS is phenomenal and the FPS is insane. I can handhold a 1200mm lens and get decent sharpness from this when combined with lens stabilization. It's amazing. I use this with Sigma lenses and they DID need a firmware update for things to work properly. You may notice a noise when the camera is off and it shakes, this is normal.. no worries. The build is solid and has plenty of accessories like the grip, which is expensive and probably a little over priced, but very useful. UHS II, V90 cards work best but V60 will be fine, it'll just slow your write speed down and will hinder your overall max number of frames when doing bursts. Anything less will not allow you to do what you expect of it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect, as usual I've bought a handful of refurbs, which are basically the same as new, with a few snaps on the shutter, or a few twists of the lens rings, and a hefty discount. Love the refurb option.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A noticeable improvement over the R6 I've owned many Canon DSLR's and currently have the R7 and until recently, the R6. I'm primarily a nature and wildlife photography, but enjoy taking family portraits and travel pics as well. The R7 does an excellent job taking care of my wildlife genre, but I wasn't as satisfied with landscapes and portraits so bought an R6 as the R5 was a bit of overkill for me. I love a full frame for landscapes and people. Don't get me wrong the R6 is a very good camera, but the 20Mp sensor was just a little bit lacking for my tastes and the autofocus wasn't as good as the R7 which was little annoying. After considerable thought the R6ii seemed like it might fit the bill a little better, but I didn't expect too much difference. I pretty much always buy Canon refurbished cameras and lenses as they represent such a good value for my lifestyle. And sometimes they are an incredible value, especially around the holidays. Essentially it is like buying new, but without the original box and the original price. Well it was better than I imagined it would be. The 24mp sensor acts like the 30mp sensor that was in my 5D Mark IV. The autofocus is substantially better and the low light characteristics are still in line with the R6. All positives. The R6ii is a very noticeable improvement over the R6. I am not a fan of the on/off/lock switch as I could do without the lock part of it. At first I really didn't like the Video/still switch on the left side, but after using it I didn't mind it at all. But mostly it is typical Canon. Well designed, easy to use, yet extremely customizable, and just works beautifully. Mostly I have been using it with many of the smaller primes and a few L lenses. I really like it with the 1.4x and the 100-500 and the 1/4x and the 100-400. The R6ii handles diffraction so much better than the R7 which you would expect. It simply just fills the void that R7 creates. I also don't have near the problem with rolling shutter as I did with the R6 and do with the R7. I have zero regrets stepping up from the R6 to the R6ii and would highly recommend this camera.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Better dynamic range I bought this camera on October 7, 2023, and it looks new! So far I'm very impressed with how much it steps up to the original R6.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The r6 rocks for weddings! I know it is supposed to be a refurbished item, but it seems every refurbished item I get from Canon is in new condition. There is literally no difference other than it doesn't come in the original package. Camera works great! A bit faster than my r6 and maybe even a tiny bit faster than my r5.
