Canon R6 Mark II

I bought a new camera and its Canon R6 Mark II. All I can say is WOW its a big difference from my old camera, Canon D6. Canon R6 mark II is a fast camera, it can take 40 pictures per second. Its great for sport and bird photography.

When I was going to buy a new camera it was a choice between Canon R6 and Canon R5. I had heard good reviews about R5 and its a great professional camera. The Canon staff told that it’s better to go with Canon R6 Mark II for the purpose of bird photography plus its little bit cheaper and the software in the canon R6 has newer features. It has inbuilt stabilizer, so even if you have a lens that doesn’t have stabilization the camera compensates for that. So that you get nice and steady pictures.

Im really happy that I got this camera. So far I have used it for sport and dance events and bird photography. I have also tried out some street phogotgraphy. Im happy with the result. I will show you some examples.

I was the offical photographer at Helsingborg Marathon in Sweden in september 2023. These are some pictures taken with Canon R6 Mark II and a mount adapter with Canon 70-200 Mark II 2,8f.

The pictures are nice and clear it was easy to use the camera and it helps that it takes many pictures per second when the runners are super fast or when there are many runners in a group.

I also took pictures for a Indian dance group in Sweden called Nritya Nadi. They are professional dancers and it was a pleasure for me to be taking picture of them with all their unique expressions. I was using sports mode and the face detection.
