I love watching these two guys from the camera store as it was one of the first review channels I started to watch.

Superb review. Concise, clear, perceptive and you hit all the main points very honestly. Thanks!

Great work as always guys. Nice to see you have not lost touch with your roots as well. It was nice to meet Jordan today in the store

Great review, guys. Interesting what you're saying about most of the current lenses not being up to the resolution of the sensor. Canon are finally getting their sensor & focusing games together. Their AF has been great for years, but needed some improvement. The BSI stacked sensor with IBIS they have in development (they filed patents last year and again this year) will probably be amazing. They also filed a patent for quad-pixel AF. Nice intro too! 🙂

Great review! I would love to hear/see a comparison from you between the M6 mkii and the M50, as one might argue that for instance the added resolution of the former is pointless until further developments on the lens front 😛

Great I really love this camera I agree on what you pointed out on pros and cons, bought this camera after watching some reviews and this is the one of the videos that pushed me to buy this camera over other competition. I also made an unboxing on m6 mark ii and its great! Btw. 24 is now available!

“Oh they’re nice they let us shoot here” *Chris walks around the back and sits on a forklift like he owns the place* LOL

Great review. Your reviews look gorgeous and flow smoothly. How hard is it to make the review look like you are just talking about the product to a friend? I'd love to see a detailed behind-the-scenes video of your process in making these reviews. For example, how do you outline the review? Do you write a script, pick bullet points or do the dialog off-the-cuff? Do you have a crew or is it just the two of you? On this partly indoor shoot, do you use lighting? What is post like. Who edits it? Thanks for making these reviews such a pleasure to watch.

I'd love to do a BTS episode in the future! After spending some time with the camera, we do a short bullet-point outline of information that needs to be covered, then Chris and I spend a meal arguing over what our opinions are. We rarely have a crew, except for our Wooden Niccolls episodes. We use small lights when necessary, either a LumaHawk Shadowless 300 Round LED, or an Aputure COB 300D. Chris edits his Raw files, and sends them off to me, and I edit the episodes. Full length reviews are generally two days of post, and shorts are a day. Hope this gives you a bit of insight into our process, thanks for the kind words!

You can also use the EVF-DC1!!! I had a M3 and then a M6. I found the EVF-DC1 more versitile as it flips up and is great for taking videos of kids when you want the camera lower and you can look down into the EVF. Plus the DC1 is about half the cost of the DC2 since it's been out for longer.

What a great review. I got the M6 Mk II in January 2020. I knew this would be the EF-M swan song, and I have no regrets. The final native lens, the 32mm is one of the best lenses ever made.

Nice review guys and you beat me to it! I actually thought rolling shutter in video was pretty well controlled in my tests, but then I'd been using the A6400 previously. I also agree about the lenses - the 15-45mm is definitely not good enough, although i do like having that wider than average coverage at the short-end. x

@dasaauto2024

doogieham Chris talked about this on the video. Resolving more than 24MP on an APS-C sensor is very difficult-and it’s perhaps the main reason APS-C has remained at 24MP for so long on so many cameras. Recently Fujifilm moved all the way up to 26MP, and Samsung swing for the fences with 28MP back in the day. I think 32 is overkill (almost as much as 80MP on FF will be).

@dasaauto2024

4 жыл бұрын

Gordon Laing The rolling shutter should be better in video since Canon isn’t supersampling their footage from 6K to 4K, but is instead using good ol’ 2012-era line skipping, and it’s soft image quality. Also, 15mm on an EF-S sensor is like 16mm on other brands’ APS-C cameras (like Sony and Fuji, the latter of which *does* have a true 15mm zoom kit lens).

One of the reasons I bought this camera is the ergonomics and ease of use you mentioned. Sony Alphas may have better video capabilities, but M6 Mark II seemed like a more complete and convenient option for me

Finally, most awaited video

about lenses: Sigma announced it will be releasing ef-m trio, most importantly 16mm f1.4 and 56mm f1.4, combined with EF-M 32mm f1.4 and ef-m 22mm f2 - efm prime lens offering will be great value. Fast zooms for the tiny m6 is overkill way too costly (r&d investment)- adapting existing ef-s alternatives through m mount adapter makes more sense (gonna be huge anyway).

Interesting review! Excluding the kit lens, I never would have considered lenses not being up to the task. I'm using Canon's ef adapter on my M50 and don't care for the wiggle in the mount.

Very helpful review, even now in 2024 under consideration for a second-hand M6ii. Many thanks!

1:45 Definitely get the thumbs up for sneaking in that reference.

Thanks for the review. I was seriously about to buy this but now thinking the video isn't quite there.

I usually shoot with an EVF on my Olympus Pen E-PM1, and I love the fact that it tilts for low angle shots. I know most people wouldn't care much about it, but for a rangefinder style camera, I find it essential.

@villemononen5303

Yeah, tilting EVF is very nice indeed! Surely more fragile, but can be truly useful. I really like it for low angle shots (which itself is often quite refreshing change to usual), but also sometimes when working with a tripod. I go in weird angles with the ballhead and tilting EVF can save the day. Good stuff!

Interestingly though, the Canon EVF-DC2 doesn’t have a tilt facility. The larger, earlier EVF-DC1 does and it is probably compatible (both units have been compatible with previous Canons that take an accessory EVF).

Great review - as a primarily Canon 5dMarkIV shooter, all I want is a decent alternative when I want to travel and not take a huge kit, so it looks like this camera with a 50mm equivalent prime would fit that niche perfectly.

This intro 😂😂Thank goodness the 24p is finally here!!

Thanks for this review. I don't know about that 24p as i am shooting in 60 and 30p and it's not a problem for me

Indeed love the intro

Nice review as usual. That 32mm 1.4 lens looks great. Btw, Chris with a camera strap is an interesting change. :) What brand is it?

Loved this location for the review...

Great review

I referenced your review on my video "Movie Making Cameras from $600 to $1,000 Part ll in 2020". Thanks for your review!

Thanks a lot for a very detailed informative video. 😊 Have you tried with the EF-M 11-22mm f4-5.6 lens? Though smaller maximum aperture it usually gave very high quality images with 24 mega pixel sensors. Please also try the EF-M 22 mm f2 for real how it really perform with the new sensor.

Your intros are hilarious keep it up. I’m using the Canon M50 I want to upgrade mainly for 4K video. What would you recommend this or the 90D? Thanks!

dang, that lady at 10:39 looked like a robot

A question for Jordan: For "4K" 30 fps, what kind of bitrates did you guys find (highest and typical)? Also, with Canon's announcement that 24fps will come in early next year, it will be interesting to see of "4K" 24 fps gives better files. I am looking forward to multi-camera "Crop Frame" comparisons.

Excellent intro throwback.

Nice review

I'm going on 200 hours of camera reviews now and every single camera has serious drawbacks. None of the cameras are good unless you spend $5500. It's really depressing.

Regarding the shutter, would you say that this can be a problem with long time exposures? Is the EVF better than the M5? Great review, thanks for the impressions.

I still want to see an M5 MK II. Give it the same sensor/processor as on this one, built in EVF and joystick of the MK I, fully articulated screen and weather sealing comparable to the x0D line. Then just have to wait for the lenses to catch up.

One thing I would like to know: Does the M6 Mark II turn off the auto exposure bracketing (AEB) as soon as anything is inserted into the hot shoe (e.g. like the view finder seen in this video)? The M6 Mark I unfortunately does that, it has a tiny switch under one of the metal flaps inside the hot shoe mount. This makes it impossible to shoot AEB with even a simple trigger, like you can on the 6D and other Canons.

Amazing intro !

BTW you can also connect EF lenses via a 3rd party focal reducer, which can make for some interesting focal length/aperture numbers (interesting for video too). IMHO Canon should make a first-party one. Oh and the World is short on zoom lenses that look as good as good primes, especially at kit lens prices. They should also turn out a higher-MP EVF option at some point - one of the advantages of it being modular. Provided they have the in-camera stuff to support that. It wouldn't suit me, but for a lot of people the approachability is good. Also worth a test with a 400/2.8 to see how much more detail you get than a 5Dsr/5DIV/etc... Way cheaper than getting a 600...

Would you choose this over the g7x mark iii for concerts and low light? What about the panasonic gh5 for photos at concerts?!

5:50 have you had a few wobbly pops by this point or is it just the audio that is that much different lol

can I ask which camera you used to record this clip? just love the color!

Would this be good for a beginner? I am deciding on this or the Sony a6400. I will most likely be doing photography more than video. Pics of the city life and animals.

Mind if I ask where you found that leather camera strap?

Lovin the intro more more more

hello according to your experience which will have better image quality in the video? Canon M6 Markt II OR SONY RX100 M7? THANK YOU

In terms of sharpness and detail which one would you recommend me to buy, iPhone 12/13 Pro Max or Canon M6 Mark II? And my second question would be if Canon M6 Mark II can compete with iPhone 12/13 Pro Max in nnight and low light situations? Thanks in advance for your response.

Can’t use viewfinder and external flash at the same time?

So compared to Fuji Xt30 and m6ii, the choice is between uncropped 1.6x vs extra crop plus oversampling 4k?

Great! I've got a question. What kind of adapter do I have to use for M42 lenses? I tried a number of them. It says "No lens attached". On the flip side with 5D mark iii simplest adapters work no questions asked.

1:48. Epic move there. Love that movie

How to mount external flash in case EVF is on, say for macro shots etc.?

24p is on its way to the 90d, RP, and the M6 II

Every EF and EFS Lens I tested on the Canon EOS 6M mark 2 is sharper than the lenses that come with this camera. So I advise everybody to buy the original canon adapter and use your old lenses. You will get way better images with less grain. Regarding the IS, the kittens has build in IS, but you have to turn the IS in the camera menu to on too for filming.

Love you guys. You have taught me a great deal about photography and film making. I’m looking for the best mirrorless or dslr for around $1200 (body only) to record my nieces. One is a gymnast and the other does local community theater. I will be purchasing a 70-200mm f2.8 lens for whatever body I choose as well. I’m looking for eye autofocus that functions in 4k.

I use the 15/45 for milky way photos on an m5 and it works great

Wow amazing Video! Thank you! may i ask with which camera have you filmed yourself at 11:06? :)

Nice camera (I have one), but I'm not finding the dial function to be an improvement over a dedicated exposure compensation dial on the M6. It would be less fiddly if you could cycle through its options via repeated presses on the button. And how come it you dedicate it in the menu to exposure compensation you have to press the button before turning the dial does anything? I find that a needless extra step. I do like that the EVF is removable and you can still use the first EVF that tilts up. And how come Chris always looks too lightly dressed for the weather?

Hi... Greetings from Indonesia. Really love your video, very informative. Pls advise, as I couldn't decide which one to choose: 18-150mm or 55-200mm? I already have 18-55 kit lens and 22mm fixed lens. Am looking for a telephoto lens, actually. So 55-200 would suit me best. Yet, 18-150 is really attractive as it can serve as all-rounder lense: wide and zoom at the same time. So, pls give me some advices here. Thanks... !

Does this camera output audio through the HDMI port? If I use an external monitor, will I be able to use that to monitor audio?

nice camera, buying my fuji xt3 soon

Does Eos M6 Mark II autofocus work during recording and can you change focus points while recording? I have seen it does not work in slow motion, but does it work i normal mode?

Great video. Thanks. My A6400 is still within the return window. The sigma primes are massive except for the 56mm. Does the Canon M mount have better small primes than Sony. How does Sony 35 OSS compare with Canon 32 and the Sony 24 f1.8 vs Canon 22mm f2??? I just need those two focal lengths and need the camera to compact. Thanks.

Hey I've got a question, can I use the viewfinder while shooting video? Or is it only for photo?

I have a very important question, please answer quickly with regard to the microphone. Is it possible to connect the microphone Rode to this camera or not compatible with it? I want to use a wireless microphone Thanks for your understanding

According to the review, M6 mk II has a lot of great features. They look a bit overkill for me. I'm looking forward to watch Fujifim X-A7 review. 😛

What camera is used to film the review/ speaking portion?

I love the singing at the beginning - in a world overwhelmed by stupid pop melodies, it's good to hear an interesting line. Also agree with your statement, 24p video is awesome, gives the right look and better low light performance

I have a m100, still rockin it to this day. Contemplating buying the 32mm lense. What does everyone think? I would rather keep the m100 body after seeing this video.

But you start to trade weight for performance and at that point why not go for the RF system, seeing as you are going into a price range that's obviously higher than this intended market? Mirrorless doesn't just mean more compact bodies, it also means great quality lenses that can be smaller. See for example Sony's new 35 1.4 and 20 1.8. Also Nikon's doing a great job with these.

With all the cons mentioned, does it mean I have to stick to the first M6?

Which camera would you recommend to a person that needs these criteria? - good autofocus. - can get a variety of lens w/ affordable price. - affordable accessories. - nice picture color. - can shoot 4K. - High-quality picture. - can shoot slow motion. - time-lapse.

The way reviewers treat this issue...especially DxO...is a pet peeve of mine. Lenses do not "cap" sensors (or vice versa). Final resolution of an imaging system is always going to be less than the weakest component, but improving ANY component improves the final result. Note that this is not an opinion, it's scientifically demonstrated and the formula for computing it can be found online. What does this mean in the real world? In the case of a M6 II the final image using a 15-45 zoom may not be as good as when using, say, a Sigma ART lens. But it will be better than the 15-45 on the old M6. So if you were happy with prints from the old M6 and 15-45 you are not going to be disappointed with the same lens on this new camera.
