Speed That Sets New Standards
Continuous Shooting at Up to 40 fps
The EOS R6 Mark II redefines speed, with continuous shooting rates of up to 40 fps electronically and 12 fps mechanically. Thanks to Pre-shooting in RAW burst mode, you can capture action even before pressing the shutter, ensuring you never miss those split-second moments.
High-Quality Video for Professional Results
Oversampled 4K 60p & 6K RAW Footage
Capture cinematic 4K 60p video or pristine 6K RAW using the full width of the EOS R6 Mark II’s sensor. Focus-breathing correction and Detect-only AF simplify achieving professional video quality, making it easier than ever to deliver stunning results.
Low-Light Performance That Defies Limits
Exceptional ISO Range & Low-Light Focusing
With a maximum ISO sensitivity of 102,400 and the ability to focus in as little light as -6.5EV, the EOS R6 Mark II is built to perform in challenging lighting conditions. Capture ambient, low-light scenes with confidence, preserving the mood and detail of every moment.
Designed for Seamless, Intuitive Shooting
User-Friendly Controls for Instant Creativity
Switching between modes is easy with the intuitive mode dial, which includes three custom shooting modes for instant adjustments. A fast on/off switch and quick photo/video mode toggle let you respond to changing scenes in real time, ensuring you’re always ready to capture the shot.
Connect and Share Effortlessly

Flexible, Secure Storage with Dual SD Card Slots
Dual Card Slots for Backup and Organisation
Dual SD card slots provide flexibility in how you store and organise your media. Back up photos as you shoot or keep different types of media on separate cards, ensuring your content remains safe and easy to manage.
