Canon Intros R6 II; We Test Out this Fast & Affordable Full-Frame Camera

Canon just introduced a new full-frame mirrorless camera designed to appeal to a wide swath of photographers, the 24.2MP EOS R6 Mark II. With a $2499 price tag that puts it up against the popular Sony A7 IV, the Canon R6 Mark II is the follow-up to the R6 from 2020 but includes a host of improvements, some of which are inherited from the pro-level Canon R3.

We had a chance to test out a pre-production version of the Canon R6 II on a Canon press trip to San Diego last week for this hands-on preview/review of the camera. We’ve included nearly a dozen images we shot with the R6 II in this story to give you an idea of its abilities.
