Recently, DPRview, a well-known foreign equipment website, published an initial evaluation report of Canon EOS R6 Mark II, and tested the R6 II sensor, focus, etc. The following is the key conclusions summarized:
DPRview Preliminary test of Canon EOS R6 Mark II
About Sensor
EOS R6 Mark The highlight of the II is the new 24.2 megapixel image sensor designed and manufactured by Canon . This new sensor is neither stack nor back-illuminated, and Canon says the performance of the rolling shutter ( jelly effect ) has been improved compared to the previous generation EOS R6 sensor.
took thousands of photos in a few days, and it is true that the EOS R6II is a very fast camera. Although it is not a stack sensor, 40 shots per second can be performed if necessary. Surprisingly, even with moving speed faster, shutter jelly distortion is very little.
Under electronic shutter , EOS R6 Mark II can achieve a maximum continuous shooting of 40 pictures/second, but the picture can only be read 12 bits.
Regarding video and focus
video, the previous generation EOS R6 was 4k 60p, which was only 1.07 times cropped. All videos were limited to 30 minutes. Canon claims that the EOS R6 Mark II can record 4k 60p videos with 40 minutes (50 minutes when cropped at APS-C), and the sensor full pixel (6K) supersampled 4k 60p video. There is no limit on recording time for 4k 30p and 4k 24p. The EOS R6 Mark II can record up to 180p in full HD (120p in EOS R6) and can record for more than 60 minutes before overheating.
In the DPRview test, early engineering machines could record for more than 1 hour without any problems at 4k 60p without cropping.
AF automatic focus adds an optimized recognition mode to cars, motorcycles, aircrafts, and trains, and adds horse recognition among animals. In addition, the "left eye", "right eye" and "preferential one-sided eye" can be set through eye detection AF. For moving targets like the BMX BMX, even if you enter the screen from the side at high speed, it can be locked in an instant, and the early engineering machine's response was amazingly good.
About manipulation of
EOS R6 Mark II is basically the same as EOS R6, except that power switch moves to the right shoulder. Because it can be turned on with one hand, this design is very reasonable. Although the still image/dynamic video switching switch on the left shoulder is also very convenient, because the switches of early engineering machines were too light, they were sometimes unconsciously turned. The focus rocker on the back of the body of
The focus rocker on the back of the body has changed slightly, the joystick of the EOS R6 is slightly concave to the inside, while the EOS R6II is raised upwards. Although the EVF of
EOS R6 Mark II is equipped with OVF simulation mode, it does not have the high dynamic range like EOS R3, so the effect is average.
battery is LP-E6NH, but the battery life has improved. According to CIPA standards, in power saving mode, the battery life of the EOS R6II has been increased from 510 to 760, and in the smooth mode using the rear display, the battery life of the EOS R6II has been increased from 360 to 580. It should be noted that the actual number of shots will be much more than the CIPA data.
Test Overview
EOS R6 Mark II is a model further improved on the basis of EOS R6. It is a balanced product with the potential to attract a wider range of users. This camera is a "pigpta" that can complete different shooting tasks well. Although it does not adopt a more "radical" update in terms of specifications, improvements in AF performance improvements, video overheating problems, electronic shutter jelly distortion and battery life leave a strong impression of practicality.
