Introduction

The Catechism EOS M6 II is an enthusiast-targeted 32.5MP APS-C mirrorless camera built around the visitor's EF-M mount. In many respects it's a more than 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 manner that shoots bursts of Raw files at up to 30 fps. The consequence is a capable and pleasantly engaging enthusiast camera.

Fundamental 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
  • three.0" rear touchscreen flips up by 180° or down past 45°
  • Optional electronic viewfinder
  • USB two.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-merely toll is $849. Calculation the retracting fifteen-45mm IS STM lens and EVF (pictured) boosts the toll to $1099, while an 18-150mm IS STM and EVF kit will set you back $1349.
