Introduction $(document). ready(function() { SampleGalleryStripV2({"galleryId":"0757003519","isMobile":false}) }) 85%Overall scoreJump to conclusion The Canon EOS M6 II is an enthusiast-targeted 32.
5MP APS-C mirrorless camera built around the company's EF-M mount. In many respects it's a more compact mirrorless variant of the EOS 90D DSLR that was announced simultaneously.
Physically, it closely resembles the original M6 but brings a host of speed and feature upgrades. These include a higher resolution sensor, the ability to capture 4K video and a mode that shoots bursts of Raw files at up to 30 fps. The result is a capable and pleasantly engaging enthusiast camera.
Key features:
32. 5MP Dual Pixel AF CMOS sensor
14 fps continuous shooting
30 fps Raw Burst mode (with AF Tracking and pre-shot buffering)
UHD 4K video at 30p and 25p with no crop / full width
3. 0" rear touchscreen flips up by 180° or down by 45°
Optional electronic viewfinder
USB 2. 0 port with Type-C connector
Canon says it will add 4K/24p shooting to the M6 II with a firmware update in 2020.
The EOS M6 Mark II is available in a series of kits. The official body-only price is $849. Adding the retracting 15-45mm IS STM lens and EVF (pictured) boosts the price to $1099, while an 18-150mm IS STM and EVF kit will set you back $1349.
