Good time to buy
Launched in late 2022 at an initial body-only price of approximately $2,499, the Canon EOS R6 Mark II has maintained its value well, with occasional bundle deals or minor discounts.

Speed over megapixels
Incredible for action and the uncropped 4K60 is great. I occasionally want more resolution for big landscape crops, but the speed is worth it.

Birds in flight are easy now
The tracking grabs an eye and never lets go, and 40fps means I never miss the moment. Ergonomics are the best of any camera I have held.

From the community
QDoes it overheat recording 4K?
It records long 4K clips comfortably at room temperature; very long 4K60 sessions can warm up but rarely cut short in practice.
QHow is battery life?
CIPA rates it around 760 shots — strong for mirrorless — and USB-C charging keeps you topped up on the go.
