Hands on: Canon EOS M6 Mark II review

Canon has been spending a lot of energy in developing its full-frame mirrorless range – with two camera bodies already on shelves and the RF lens line-up slowly expanding, it came as a pleasant surprise when rumors about a new EOS M series camera...

32.5MP resolution 14fps continuous shooting 4K uncropped video Dual function dial MF/AF switch

Lacks in-body image stabilization No articulating LCD Limited native EF-M lenses

With a new 32.5MP sensor and the Digic 8 processor under the hood, Canon’s new EOS M6 Mark II is all set to shove the EOS M5 to the side and become the brand’s new APS-C mirrorless flagship. Its 14fps continuous shooting speed makes it particularly...

Canon EOS M6 Mark II initial review: Mirrorless evolution

The MkII mirrorless camera adds new controls and ups the resolution to a massive 32.5MP. Is it a high-res success, or does the competition better it?

Canon has turned a corner in its M series mirrorless line-up, with the Mark II M6 adding welcome changes that make for even greater ease-of-use, while the resolution reaches epic new heights.

The Canon EOS M6 Mark II offers decent value to consumers seeking a standalone camera, but there are better options if they want to upgrade in future.

Canon EOS M6 Mark II Review

Canon's 32mp APS-C mirrorless camera shares the same sensor as the Canon EOS 90D, but in a smaller, more compact package. Does it have the lenses to match the sensor, or is it let down by a range of zoom lenses?

Canon EOS M6 Mark II review: Do megapixels matter?

The M6 Mark II puts more power and pixels into Canon's compact EOS-M mirrorless line, but it fails to outshine the competition due to a lack of lenses and inferior low light performance. We love the improved Dual Pixel Autofocus and 14 fps continuous...

32.5 megapixels ; Compact, lightweight ; Good menu system ; Dual Pixel AF works for 4K video

The Canon EOS M6 Mark II wins on resolution, but how much do megapixels matter?

Canon M6 Mark II review: Incredible performance from a flawed flagship

Canon's M6 Mark II is a camera with two different faces. On the plus side, it delivers 14 fps burst shooting speeds, beating all of its rival products. It also has fast autofocus with eye- and face-detection that's good, though not quite up to Sony's...

Decent handling ; Blazing shooting speeds ; Good autofocus performance ; Detailed and color-accurate images

4K not as sharp as rivals ; Most EOS-M lenses not sharp enough for sensor ; No electronic viewfinder

For every positive of Canon's $850 M6 Mark II, it seems like there's an accompanying downside. With a 32.5-megapixel sensor, it has more resolution than any other APS-C camera, but many of the native lenses can't handle the resolution. You can shoot...

Canon EOS M6 Mark II review: Our favorite Canon mirrorless camera yet

With the EOS M6 Mark II, Canon has taken its midrange mirrorless game up a notch. Offering the highest-res APS-C sensor on the market, 4K video, super-fast burst shooting and comfortable ergonomics, the M6 II is compact and a real pleasure to shoot...

The Canon EOS M6 II is a more overtly photographer-targeted camera than its predecessor, gaining Dial Func control, a dedicated MF/AF switch and an AF-On button which combine to put just a little more control directly at your fingertips. And it ends up...

Canon EOS M6 Mark II

The EOS M6 Mark II marks a big step forward for Canon's APS-C mirrorless system, but the available lenses aren't as appealing as those offered by Fujifilm and Sony.

High-resolution 32.5MP sensor. 14fps burst rate. Quick, accurate autofocus. Face and eye detection. Flip-up LCD. 4K video. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.

EVF isn't built in. Sensor isn't stabilized. Native lens library lacks premium options. Dumbed-down video options. Pricey.

Bottom Line: The EOS M6 Mark II marks a big step forward for Canon's APS-C mirrorless system, but the available lenses aren't as appealing as those offered by Fujifilm and Sony.
