Our quick take

Canon EOS R6 - 4.0 / 5

Design & Lens Mount

  • Canon RF mount (EF/EF-S via adapter) Dual SD card slots (UHS-II compliant) Dust & moisture sealed magnesium alloy body Built-in electronic viewfinder (0.5in, 3,690k-dot OLED) Tilt-angle mounted touchscreen (3.2in, 1,620k-dot LCD)

Performance

  • Dual Pixel CMOS AF II autofocus system Image stabilisation system - to 8 stops Face/eyes/animal detection & tracking 12fps burst (20fps electronic) Adjustable AF point size Wi-Fi & Bluetooth

Image Quality

  • 20-million pixel full-frame CMOS sensor ISO 100 to 102,400 sensitivity (expands to 204,800) Video capture: 4K at 60/50/30/25/24p (1.7x crop); Full HD (1080p) at 120/100/60/50/30/25/24p

To recap

The resolution might seem low for a camera of this type, but the resulting quality from this full-frame sensor is superb. Add on-board stabilisation, more advanced autofocus than before, and heaps of speed when it comes to burst shooting, and the R6 certainly appeals. The asking price could be yet more competitive and the resolution a little higher though.
