Trying to decide between Canon R6 + 24-105mm f/4 L, or Nikon Z6 with 24-70mm f/4. Prosumer, stepping into mirrorless from Nikon D7500, and interested in low light cityscape, some landscape, and casual available light portrait shots. Which one would you recommend?

20 megapixels is not enough for a camera in 2022 or even 2020 for that matter. and then they increase 25 megapixels for the R5?! But you can spend $1500 and get a 30 mp full frame in the R? 30mp should have been the standard for the R6, the only reason not to make that the standard would be that no one would want to purchase the R5, so they handicapped the R6. Let alone the fact they did not need to change the mounting hardware in order to improve performance, they could have kept the EF mount and improved the software components for a line of mirrorless lenses. I have been a canon loyalist for 15 years but Canon can get bent as far as I am concerned. I am going over to Sony.

I haven't used my 1DX mk ii much since I got a R5 with grip more than a half year ago and I recently got a R6 as secondary camera w/o grip.

@@JonathanAyers My GAS followed a similar path. Got the 7DMII for wildlife; then got into landscapes and realized I needed both more MP and wider field of view. Hence, the 5DM4. Better image quality and more features by far than the 7DM2; but heavier, with slower (and much noisier) burst. It's not a great wildlife body IMO. Now I've started doing video too. So, the R6 seems to be perfect for upgrading from the 7DM2. I'm keeping the 5DM4 until a really high MP body comes out.

I really appreciate these reviews, especially for the R5 and R6, because they highlight the strengths of the cameras without over-weighting the video performance in the overall judgement. I'm about a 90% stills shooter and have been a Canon shooter for a very long time, and these reviews have really helped me to understand that an R5 or R6 would be a phenomenal upgrade to my current setup and basically perfect for my primary use case. So many of the other reviews approach them from a 50/50 stills/photo - or even a straight video-first - perspective, and haven't really given me a good feeling about their stills capability. Thanks for these reviews. They have been very, very helpful.

You should know that the excessive focus on video features related to still cameras has been and continues to be very annoying to those of us millions who are very primarily stills shooters. This kind of bias in evaluations is very evident from many many KZbin sources I believe because while they claim to be photographers they are in fact videographers as evidenced by the importance of their KZbin productions for them personally in generating income. While no doubt hybrid performance is wonderful to have and for some professionals perhaps a requirement, the reality on planet Earth is that HD Video IS still not available even at broadcast on local televisions most of the time. HD television is not, even after all these years truly dominant. This is true for the giant vast majority of those who subscribe to Internet services. SO the emphasis on 4K IS really quite a truck load of total bullshit for most people, not to mention all the computer power and screen resolution and such just to deal with it. I thank you from NOT being Tony and Chelsea, nor the Fro, nor even Peter Gregg (God bless him). All one needs to do is LOOK at the current trend in FILM photography to see -guess what - people do indeed value still photography very much. Thanks for your review that has meaning to those especially who wish to raise shadows and recover highlights and focus on subjects who move and capture a still photo. As for the video mavens out there - buy a video camera and stop complaining that you can't get a cheap alternative from a camera company that wishes to destroy and cannibalize its market during a giant downturn in the industry just to satisfy your lustful ego-centric navel gazing camera desires. There, I have said it. I am sick of you "equal outcome" people. Cameras are all different, just like people, do NOT expect them all to cough up the outcomes equally to server your purposes. Be a real diversity person and shed your video-privilege attitudes - and you know who you are!! Go ahead go march on Canon, don't forget to pick up your marching orders from Portland-video.

Hi Gordon. Thank You! I use a 5D classic. Yes, well, someone has to! I've been wanting to upgrade for some time...... The RF lenses are obviously the eventual future but I was not sufficiently impressed with the RP or the R to deploy hard earned cash. Then the R5 and 6 came along. But which one? I've got video cameras so what I'm mainly looking for is high end still photography with some useful video capability in reserve. That sounds very much like the R6 except that I'd now like to shoot mainly landscapes. Problems problems! Your suite of non-OTT (Oh my God it caught fire) review videos are extremely helpful both to me and I would think many others. With this level of complexity I prefer the still/video separation approach. Oh, and yes, I've subscribed! BobUK.

Gordon! Thank you for the great video! It is very complete. I am burnt out on the subject overheating. 8K video crippled a high-end Macbook as well as a new $11,000 Apple desktop. So I won't be really using this camera for video except for little 8 second clips here and there on vacation. It's interesting that 60% or less battery slows the shutter. Is this something that has happened on other cameras? It's not that big of a deal, just surprising. And please continue the "stills only" reviews and keep 8K overheating videos for other click-bait & royalty-free-dubstep-laden channels. I think a lot of viewers are interested in AF performance, as this camera is a major leap forward. THANK YOU!

The R5 with the sensor of the R6, two CF Express slots and a built in battery grip would be perfect for me. For me having a top display is essential. Even the cheaper EOS R had that. I hate it when Canon make a camera artificially worse just to make people buy a higher priced camera that has a resolution I do not want. In the Sony A7 line up, the camera with the lowest resolution is the most expensive, but the R5 and R6 suggest that having more megapixels makes a camera more premium. That is sooooo 2005.

@@cooloox I am used to my old DSLR which displays all important camera settings at the same time on the top display. The top display does not consume very much power. That is especially important on a mirrorless camera, where battery life is one of the major problems. Also most of the bottons to change the settings are on the top. I am not a fan of touch screens. I prefer physical buttons instead of a touch display.

Hi Gordon, fellow coffee nerd here. Thanks for yet another refreshingly calm, factual review. I love the seperate reviews for stills and video. Concerning the R6 - over at dp review they have a great comparison module, where you can crossreference resolution and ISO performance for up to 4 cameras (I'm sure you know it). I spent quite some time there before deciding to get the R6 and it indeed holds it's own in terms of resolution, especially in the corners. It is food for thought, if the consistency over the ISO range it delivers isn't of siginificantly more value in day to day operation, opposed to a camera that resolves a tad higher at base ISO but rapidly deteriorates under non ideal conditions. After all, other than for studio photographers, non ideal conditions are rather the norm than the exception. Keep up the great work mate - enjoy your coffee :)

I was looking for a second camera body (for using only RF glass instead of that and EF with the adapter) and this is review of the R6 is really compelling. I have an EOS R and its solid overall, but its ability to focus and track smaller subjects like birds and pets could be a bit better. It was either the R5 or this and I think this answered which to get. Excellent review! Its dam hard to come by people who can create a solid comparison/review style video.

I always appreciate your reviews, thorough but accessible. When my budget allows this is on my list as a hobby photographer who photographs a lot of dog sports and is looking to get in to mirrorless from a 7D with a good number of EF-L lens lineup. The focus system, IBIS, FPS burst and dynamic range are all spot on for my needs. The split review you did worked great for me, since I’m not a huge hybrid photo/video user. The sharpness and ISO comparisons to multiple cameras were great to see. Cheers and thank you for the great content!

Thank you, Gordon for the detailed reviews of the R5 & R6 from a stills perspective. At least I have some useful information regarding both camera models. I would kindly request you keep this style of format for upcoming camera reviews. As a 5Dmkiv user, looking forward to retire my trusty 6D backup camera, use the 5Dmkiv as backup and the R6 or R5 as my "future" main body. I had the opportunity to play with the budget RP and some R lenses and to be honest I was surprised about what this camera could provide regarding the limited features it offered. Canon learned from the past and providing their customers an interesting upgrade path for users having existing EF or EF-S glass thanks to the EF to R adapters. Although EVF cameras are becoming the new norm I am still keeping an "old" DSLR tech in my kit as a backup. Coffee is on the way... With Regards
