Trying out the Canon R6 Mark II

- Recently bought myself the Canon R6 Mark II, and it's been great as a video camera for me so far, but I haven't tried much in the way of shooting stills with it yet.
In this video, I change that by giving it a go and doing street photography in Melbourne.
What's your favourite shot? Let me know in the comments!
Cheers.
Nice one mate! Relaxing stroll around town 🫶
Cheers, mate! Was a great way to spend an evening. Thanks for watching
very nice photos, and love the editing
Cheers mate! Thanks for watching
MR2 SW20 for the win 👌😎
A very welcome surprise when I saw it fly past! Cheers for watching
Very cool. Great photos. I think my favorite one is the guy in the red vest coat getting on the tram at the end of the video.
Cheers mate! I like that one too, real happy with how it turned out.
Thanks for watching

Thank you for sharing. I’m looking to pickup the R6ii soon (hopefully). What lens were you shooting with?
Thanks for watching! It's a great camera, I'm sure you'll love it if you pick one up.
In this video I used my EF 24-105 f/4L IS, EF 75-300 f/4-5.6 IS, and EF 50mm 1.4.
@@alexforsythphoto great. I have a few Ef lenses already as I shoot on Canon. What are your experiences comparing the Ef to the native Rf lenses. Are there any noticeable differences?
@@ikechadmedia3116 For the most part it's been really good. I got the EF-RF adapter with the variable ND drop in filter and for shooting video it's worked out great. It's a bit like having built in ND like the professional camcorders I use in my day job, and that's been really useful.
If you go down that path though, keep in mind you'll probably want to get a clear drop in filter too, because when you buy the drop in adapter with the VND that's all it comes with, and doesn't have a clear one included. And I'm sure, like me, you're definitely going to want the option to not use it without leaving a bit open gap in your mount adapter while you shoot.
Auto focus for stills is great, and for videos it works, but I've found my older lenses are a bit noisy and get picked up on my camera mounted shotgun mic when they're continuously focussing in a quiet room. I've got around this issue by using a wireless lav mic though.
So really depends on how you want to use it, but for me this setup has been working well and feels promising as a good tool for me for a while into the future.
@@alexforsythphoto thanks you for the info. Yes I shoot both photo and video mostly corporate stuff. I’ve been looking at it as a hybrid styles entry into the R line.
