mannnn such a good to the point video and no lens coverage, I actually came to the video to hear about the lenses it takes as now all the mount confusion going on...
I was in the position of getting a 6DII, RP or R moving from an 80D a couple of months ago. My gf and I work together and she owns a 5DIV so the dynamic range of the 80D was very noticeable. I ended up going with the R and I got 0 complains of that camera. In the case you are in this position as well go for the R (same as a 5DIV) and it isn't that much more expensive than the 6DII on sales. Mind you I did had to get an EF-RF mount adapter but overall very satisfied with the camera.
Actually you have a great point, i don't know how i forgot about the R It literally has a 5DIV sensor in a smaller body, though myself i'd maaaybe get the 5D instead anyway, it feels snappier
@@PhotoDardha That was one of the reasons why I went with the R and not the 6DII, the other one being the AF points which are 5655 (I can press anywhere on the screen and it effing focus!!!) I hated the 45 AF points all in the center, not to mention the AF and eye tracking upgrade is slightly faster. I got one on sale for a little over 1k euros on black Friday + 120€ for the EF-RF lens adapter. A Full Battery so far gets me about 1.2-1.5k pictures outside and about 2k-2.3k at the studio, I was concern about those 370 shots from CIPA test. Also awesome improvement from your 80D video editing to this one, Keep it up!
Just bought one second hand on gut instinct and your video has eased my nagging doubts, 70 /200mm lens , bag , tripod , sd card , strap all included for under 1600 euro
Finally got my Mk II about a month ago. Couldn't be happier with it; I'm nowhere near a pro but an avid hobbyist. One interesting though, is that I have found I still need to get a better handle on the AF. It's quite a bit more demanding than I've found to be the case on my 7D Mk II and my 1DX Mk III. For the record, I don't shoot video at all, only stills.
That's great, and feels nice to see a good follow up story on a comment from a while back. It'll definitely help you grow as a photographer. I uploaded the review just yesterday, i did a 6 month review which maybe you can find useful
@@PhotoDardha I did pick mine up a couple of months ago, and boy, do I love it! TBH, I still need to get a better handle on the AF in this body; seems like it's a bit more exacting (finicky?) than what I find using my 7D Mk II and 1DX Mk III. But it's been a heck of a lot of fun to learn!
The best thing about this camera is live view photography, no longer have to worry about crammed focus points. It reasonably picks up faces automatically for tack sharp focus..
great video for a Totally Viable Camera in 2024. you did a great review on this camera. I agree with your evaluation. I have a 50D, 70d, and the 6d mk2. if I need 4K video I have a Drone, and a Gopro. the main point is: camera people will always want to buy new and exciting, but at some point, we need to USE THE EQUIPMENT that you already own. the 6D mk 2 is awesome.
I have the R6ii right now, 24mp and it's absolutely amazing in low light I can get an acceptable instagram shot even at 20000ISO while 10000 is pretty clean The R3 has a very similar performance to this if not better
Really enjoyed the video,great pacing! I own the 6D mark ii and it’s been great to shoot with, although i think thw video capabilities are subpar even for its age. Been looking for a upgrade, thinking of going with the R8😁
Thank you! The R8 is pretty nice to be honest, myself i didn't get it because i wanted a more pro body and professional features that i'll hold onto for longer, so i waited and got the R6ii, i think it's worth it
Interesting opinion, i always thought about how the original 6D was and if the ii was enough of an improvement Why exactly do you see it as a disappointment, it didn't live up to expectations? Also honestly this camera is perfectly capable of 4K but it doesn't have it so i understand but i wanna hear your point as well
I have a Canon 6D with only 230 shots ! Since the fall of 2017 it has been in a box in the closet because I don’t use it. Like new. I will sell on eBay. I also have a Canon 6D mark 2 , Canon 7D (38000 shots) and a Sony a6000, I used it very rarely, and since 2019 I haven’t used cameras, so I lost interest... I will put all the cameras and lenses up for sale on eBay....
@@PhotoDardha I have both, and in my honest opinion the 6D has exactly three advantages over the 6D Mk. 2: 1. The build quality is slightly higher. Much of it comes due to the display being built into the body. 2. Its shutter is slightly quieter and more "Leica-like". 3. You can exchange the matte screen against another one. That's it. But, honestly: Right now you can buy two used 6D bodies for one used 6D2 body, which is an advantage of its own. Apart from that, the 6D2 clearly is the better camera.
It is a "good" camera, but in 2024 it is honestly not worth the ridiculously high price that Canon intends to charge for it, there are many options on the market that are a perfect balance between quality and price, in my opinion, the body should not exceed 700usd... It is a product that is already on its way to becoming obsolete.
It is too expensive when bought new. In Germany you can get a new Canon R6 Mk. 2 for about 200 Euro more. But if you shoot Canon and do not want to go mirrorless, the 6D Mk. 2 is one of its kind, because it is the only full frame DSLR with decent tilt and swivel screen which Canon will ever make;-) I got mine used for 700 Euro from a dealer with three batteries and one year of warranty. I had (and still have) a 6D before, and I am very pleased that Canon ironed out each and every single shortcoming of the 6D. Just an example: The 6D has a GPS receiver built in which is fairly accurate, but needs rather long to find a fix. And once it is set up, it runs forever - and drains your battery, even if the camera is switched off. The 6D2 has a GPS receiver which gets a fix much faster - and you can choose a mode where switching the camera off and on also switches the GPS off and on.

This guy is wrong. He says that this camera is less noisy than 5D4 or Sony A7R3, but he is wrong. Noise should be compared at a resolution reduced to the smallest among the compared cameras and dpreview has such an option, it is strange that he did not use it. What is the point of criticizing the A7R3 for more noise when examining details at a scale that Canon cannot give ? With methodology like this, we can come to the conclusion that 5dsr is noisier than the Canon 300d from 2003. In the picture reduced to 26 megapixels, Sony is much better, and Canon 6D2 shows the worst picture among its generation.... And you seriously showed jpegs ? Really ? And the dynamic range is really bad. I can only be happy for this guy that he has such an undemanding job (which is true for most commercial work or all sorts of weddings/photo shoots), but for example, stock inspectors really don't like noise in the shadows. And it just so happens that I really love backlighting and contrasting scenes. So with a Canon with very similar DR perfomance, sometimes, after all processing I had to downsize my pictures to 6 megapixels to hide this noise, so that the inspectors wouldn't get angry. You can't fool an inspector with noise reduction - they don't like that even more. Don't praise something based on your standards and requirements. The speed of the Lada is enough for me, but I don't tell people that Lada is a fast car. It is important to understand that this Canon, like many similar ones, is not about image quality at all. This was not the company's priority, this is not what people love this camera for. They love this camera for its convenience and simplicity. Live view, full-featured touchscreen, hinged display, neat design. Canon always feels familiar and friendly, while Nikon may have some nuances and feel a little rougher. And Sony cameras of that generation feel like rectangles with buttons, not like instruments. But in terms of raw image quality, Nikon or any full frame camera of that (or even the previous one) generation with a Sony sensor will tear this Canon apart.
It’s not a good camera, i shot with it for 3 years, the auto focusing system of the camera is ultra slow, your better off using one shot. The low light at high iso is super ultra noisy. Save your money and go mirrorless. I switched from a 6dmkii to a r6 mkii and it’s a world of a difference, DSLR is old n outdated.
You must have had a faulty version or something, i provided actual examples here where you can see it's not noisy Never had AF problems either unless i shot in pitch black of course
There’s a huge price difference between the two models. The R6mkii is a professional camera with the latest tech. The 6Dmkii is a semi enthusiast camera made to a budget. I use a 6D original and still find it very good even after ten years. It just depends on what you want to photograph.
Yes true there is a big difference but the 6D isn't as this comment says, ofc the R6ii will blow it out of the water but i'd say for most people and even certain professionals who don't need the fast AF/burst/4K would be fine with it And yes just as you said, it all depends why you need the camera
I purchased the 6D ii new.... Great camera... The pics make the people look better than real-life. I don't use video too much. Not an issue. // Waiting for a camera company to offer Nightvision and Infrared before I move to a more expensive camera.

Very true actually, it's not as smart as cameras nowdays that kinda have a mind of their own. It just focuses on whatever's in the box and done
Had 6D, was fantastic & kinda basic, helped focus on things.
This or Nikon d750 ...which one is superior?
