Pros: Ergonomics, exceptional files, AF

Cons: Nothing noteworthy

Opinion: Purchased about six months ago for business use, I must say that I was impressed. I will not talk about how it works at 51,200 iso or how it recovers files taken 10 stops below. I use it for work and certainly not at -10 stops, but without a doubt the iso noise is not a problem for the R6, which holds up very well without worries at least up to 12,800. That said, we are in front of the same sensor as the 1Dx Mark III, and once you have it in your hands, it is not hard to believe it, just do some tests, take it out to work a little, to see the very high quality of the files it churns out, exactly like the 1Dx3. From my point of view the files are fantastic, a beautiful paste, a practically perfect color rendering and complexion, an ISO seal (12,800 safe) excellent. Coming from the series 1 I did not find major differences in the workability of the file, I found it very similar, so really good. Excellent ergonomics, I am a man of 110 kg and I hold it in my hand without any problem, without it being small or difficult to manage. The buttons are in the right place and practically all customizable. On the Dual pixel AF there is little to say, it hardly misses a shot. In short, excellent machine that I would buy again with my eyes closed!

Pros: AF, high ISO yield, crazy stabilization

Cons: virtually nothing, perhaps the cost of RF lenses

Opinion: I state that I am an amateur, I do not make photography my job and I do not have the needs of professionals. I believe, like most people who attend this forum, to be part of the category of "evolved amateurs". I bought the R6 after a short period of "break" from photography and I was lucky enough to buy it after the release of the mkII, which allowed me to spend "relatively" little on the body. First impression is to have in hand (and it is the first impression of a person who until a few months before was happy owner of an R) an object of superior category: the build quality is excellent, the grip is excellent and FINALLY the buttons and rings are in place, in full Canon SLR style. I was a bit skeptical about the issue of 20mpx, but I must say that for normal use (and also for a little' crop, not exaggerated) you do not feel at all the difference compared to the 30mpx sensor of the R. With the transition to the LP-E6NH (the new Canon batteries) we forget the age-old problem of mirrorless, namely that the battery does not last long: with a Patona protect I easily arrived over 1000 shots, with electronic viewfinder set to 120fps and screen almost always active. The autofocus then is another story: already with the R I was perfectly at ease, with very few "wrong" shots, but the R6 takes everything to another level. I will not dwell on technical issues – which I probably would not be able to deal with – but I make this simple statement: with the R I had a 10% of shots out of focus, with the R6 we are below 1% (all not only in "easy" situations, such as portrait, but also in rather complex situations, such as chasing birds flying against the light). The ISO yield is simply hallucinating: 12,800 ISO on the R6 correspond – in terms of noise – to 3,200 on the R. For the first time since I have a camera, I find myself in the condition of thinking that raising the ISO is not so different from decreasing the shutter speed or opening the aperture, so, in terms of noise, the problem does not arise. The stabilization is simply magnificent, but one clarification must be made: in my experience it tends to work much better – obviously – on the new generation RF lenses rather than on the old EFs; with the 100-400 RF I found myself shooting at 400mm at 1/100sec perfectly still (and I'm a person who has pretty shaky hands, so I'm used to shooting AT LEAST at 1/800sec at that focal length). In short, speaking clearly, the conclusion is that it is a camera probably oversized compared to my needs, which is aimed more at an audience of professionals rather than amateurs. But it remains – considering the current advantageous price – perhaps the best choice for those who want to stay in Canon and literally want the maximum of what photographic technology is able to give.

Pros: Operating speed, AF, image quality

Cons: Perceived quality, some problems then solved

Opinion: Exceptional machine, both in terms of image quality and usability. Despite being very rich in features, it is rather simple to use, well-structured menu. The AF module is really great, as is the operating speed. I had some problems working (total crash with reset possible only by removing the battery) under normal conditions. The classic forum know-how, assuming that I had not read the manual, lapidarily blamed the SD cards used. Maybe even Canon didn't read the manual as it replaced my motherboard. Now it goes that it is a bomb. Extraordinary machine, with the right resolution, in my opinion. It also works very well with the old EF lenses, although I am slowly discarding them in favor of RF.

Pros: ISO, battery, ease of use, built-in stabilizer, dynamic range

Cons: if it had more resolution..., 4K video recording time limit

Opinion: Now the R6 mk 2 is out but I think the R6 mk 1 remains a fantastic camera, I recommend it to everyone, especially with the prices dropped! I have owned it for almost 2 years, I work with services such as pregnancy, newborns, baptisms, 18 years, so a bit all the main situations where you really see if a camera is tough or not. The R6 never disappoints: seize the moment, a stolen look with a burst? It does. Photos with little noise in the evening at a party? It does. Photos in church not always well lit? No problem. Precision of focus on the subject (person) day or night? No problem. Thanks to the R6 my percentage of shots in focus is well above 90%, the only time I have to drive the focus is when there are more people, because rightly in that case the software can not know where to aim. The tightness to high ISO is amazing, I try not to exceed 6,400 ISO but up to 12,000 I do not worry so much. Of course, cropping you can but carefully and this sometimes limits, even if it pushes you to be careful with the shot, excellent gymnastics then! The battery lasts, even with the screen open, let's say those 3 hours of shots holds them, although I think it also affects the ambient temperature: in practice with 2 batteries you are fine up to 5/6 hours. I use EF optics with the adapter, never a problem, excellent, as well as the stabilizer in the room: in my opinion having it is a great help in many situations and with unstabilized lenses; I imagine that without it I would have taken many photos with shake, which in practice I do not know when I download photos and post produce. The video part also, excellent, including logs, but too bad for the heating with the 4k and the limit then to the recording: great shame because so you can not work for long, unless you settle for the FULL HD. I found a problem, let's say, when the mounted slide flash discharges and turns off, if you do not notice it and shoot, the machine from error and freezes: you have to turn it off and on again (I for safety remove and put back the battery). For the rest everything ok, I recommend it!

Pros: Deadly autofocus, dynamic range, burst both mechanical and electronic, dual slots, RF / EF adapter, stabilizer, ergonomics rather good for my hands, excellent sensor.

Cons: RF lens price, lack of screen on camera shoulder

Opinion: The moment I started using it I had a bad feeling, that is a moment before the focus and consequently the shot I saw in the viewfinder a light like a flash shot. Fortunately, after asking for an explanation on the forum, some courteous people dispelled my doubts by explaining the normality of the operation due to the total opening of the diaphragm to help the AF. Of course this lasted a blink of an eye. Having clarified this, it must be said that the photos are taken correctly and the focus is also valid using EF optics. Excellent and functional face / eye recognition once hooked the subject does not lose it anymore. More than enough bursts with mechanical and electronic shutter. I had the whole series of 5D and frankly once I took the hand with the new camera at the moment I do not regret them, although to be honest I kept the latest version.
