My photographer friend still takes pictures with a Canon 5DM3. His photos are published in magazines, posted on websites and have been used for the cover of several books. Do you miss the Canon R6M2? What are you shooting, bro? A Hollywood blockbuster or something? What could you possibly miss in a camera that has ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING for comfortable work. The sensors haven't gotten much better. Autofocus, yes. If you can't take good pictures with such cameras, then it's clearly not the camera, dude.
From what I have read it seems like it will be another incremental update. Sounds like the sensor will be a variant of the sensor used in the R3 which has nearly identical dynamic range numbers compared to the R6 Mark II. Maybe the Mark III will get 4K 120p, but honestly I rarely find myself needing anything over 60p. Yeah, honestly I feel like there will be very little reason to move from an R6 Mark II to the Mark III. If you find yourself needing a massive step up in quality, saving up for the R5 Mark II would be the more worthwhile investment I believe! Hope that helps 😊
So I went back and looked, the fist day of shooting I shot 185 photos and 68 10-20sec 4k 60p videos before the battery died. The second day was 197 photos and 53 videos. If I was just shooting photos I would guess about 300-350 photos, I hope that helps!
at the same time if you still flood your camera, it is not a warranty case, despite the protection from atmospheric influences. if you need real protection, you need to buy special cases, which is what all professionals do who are engaged in shooting in different weather conditions. and from light rain and dust, nothing will happen and with cameras that do not officially have dust and moisture protection. My friend has been shooting on a Canon RP for 3 years, both in winter and summer and in the rain, and everything was ok. as well as the second slot - not a single flash drive has broken in 10 years of work. but the difference in price between the two devices is quite significant.
@@abercrombie2684 Seals vs no seals on body and lens does make a huge differance when photographing in harsh conditions. There are many times where ive gotten shots simply because ive trusted my equipment. Those shots would not have been possible if its wasnt for the weather sealing. As for the dual card slots, if you're not making any money from shooting events, then theres no need for an extra slot. Imagine shooting a wedding and having a card fail on you. That cant happen. I personally find the R6 more comfortable than the R8. It has a larger grip and supports battery grips from canon. They are made for different audiences. Theres no right or wrong answer here. Every camera has its flaws.
Agree, those are two things that if you need them, it’s a non negotiable. The majority of people buying these camera’s will probably never need the weather sealing, but personally I enjoy the peace of mind it gives you and I am more willing to take my camera out in harsh conditions. The second card slot, I personally rarely use it, but like you mentioned, for a wedding photographer I couldn’t see them using a camera body without 2 slots.
Hello, I was looking for budget camera for our company, and found this video comparison. I think R6 is great option, but for budget do you think the R8 or R is good options for school that is including daily shootings at school environment and events? Do you have any advice for looking up for other cameras cheaper than R6?
For a school or learning environment I think the R8 would be a fantastic choice. You are getting full frame performance, great dynamic range, the menu system is easy to learn and navigate, the camera should be more than robust enough to take years of abuse. It is a great camera in a compact package. If you are looking at camera's in the R8's price range, I highly recommend it!
Hmmm that’s interesting, using both camera’s back to back I didn’t notice any speed difference. You can manually adjust the autofocus speed and responsiveness, I know for myself I have speed turned way down in video mode for smoother transitions, I wonder if one body was set different to the other.
This gray border around the sensor is the worst effect, it looks like it was done by a kid with a felt-tip pen. It makes a camera that look already very cheap even more junk.
Haha yeah I don’t really understand the grey border. It appears on the R8, R7 and R10 which all came out around the same time, but the R3, R6 Mark II and upcoming R5 Mark II don’t have it so it doesn’t make a ton of sense. Maybe they were testing something, maybe it’s just an aesthetic choice.
Solid review

Great review! What do you think about the R6 Mark 3 rumours? I recently bought the R6 Mark 2 and am wondering if there is anything I'll be missing

Please how many pictures can you take with canon R8 before you charge the battery.

R6 has weather sealing and dual SD card slots. A dealbreaker for me.

I think the biggest different will be the auto focus both in Film and photography. When I tried the R6 I found it very slow.

@@JasonPischke Indeed, as luck would have it, it's not there on the expensive and high-end models as if to make us understand that we bought crap.
