The Canon EOS R6 is the full-frame mirrorless camera with which Canon brought 5-axis stabilisation and the DIGIC X processor to its mid-range: a 35.9 × 23.9 mm CMOS sensor with 20.1 megapixels, up to 8 stops of IBIS, a 680 g body with battery and card, and dust and moisture sealing on par with the EOS 6D series. The body measures 138.4 × 97.5 × 88.4 mm and works between 1 and 40 °C.
Dual Pixel CMOS AF II selects up to 1,053 points in automatic mode and recognises the eyes, faces and bodies of people, dogs, cats and birds, with a working range down to −6.5 EV. Bursts reach 12 fps with the mechanical shutter and 20 fps with the electronic one, and video records 4K at 60p and Full HD at 120p in 10-bit 4:2:2 with Canon Log, while the HDMI port feeds an external monitor. The 0.5-inch OLED viewfinder offers 3.69 million dots at 0.76x, the 3-inch touchscreen with 1.62 million dots is vari-angle, and there are two SD UHS-II slots.
It is built for photojournalism, weddings, sport and event video, where sensitivity up to ISO 102400 and eye detection in low light let you work without flash, and battery life reaches around 510 shots. It connects over 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for sending files to a phone. Canon announced it on 9 July 2020 at $2,499 for the body, with cameras available from the end of August that year.
