⭐️ Buy the Canon M6MKII: geni.us/XHsya3 (affiliate)
Today I’m going to compare the Canon 90D and the Canon M6 MK II for both photography and video. These are two great options from #Canon which use the new 32MP APS-C cmos sensor.
They have a lot of features in common, but some very important differences, so I’ll put them head-to-head and help you choose.
I’ll cover the strengths and weaknesses of the #canon90d and the #canonm6mkii for both photography and video, and compare everything from body type, framerate and resolution, autofocus, lens options, audio features, and ergonomics.
I will also look at the Canon 90D and the Canon M6MKII in terms of battery life, burst shooting, viewfinder and weather sealing.
Finally I’ll tell you which option I think is best for different uses.

⭐️ Buy the Canon 90D: geni.us/jKAno (affiliate) ⭐️ Buy the Canon M6MKII: geni.us/XHsya3 (affiliate) What's up everyone?! I hope this comparison of the Canon 90D and M6MKII with sample footage and images is helpful. These are two fantastic options with the new 32MP sensor and I was impressed with the image quality for both photography and video. Let me know what you think!! Would love to know what you think, good or bad. I am grateful in advance 🙏

[@Sergio-rn7os]

Do you have a video link if it's possible to leave the small lens it comes with or any other lens with the cap on but connected to the camera for storage or is it a bad idea?

[@TechGearTalk]

Yes, you can store it with the lens on - that's what I do with all my cameras.

[@christophermariohartono]

Can the 90d shoot video in shutter priority ?

[@titaniumapple1]

Do you have a link to the comlight/calmlight speedbooster adapter for the M6 MK2 and a link to the correct Sigma lens'? Thanks!

[@technicbelarabi-2295]

Hi, I need your help, you are the best reviewer ever, I need to choose between 90D & M6, for slow motion, I want to shoot (FHD with120fps), which one is better? or if you recommend a third one?

[@ahmedeladly3659]

Your reviews are excellent, in depth and detail with no time wasting talking. Im so glad there is a youtuber like you!👍

[@TechGearTalk]

That is so kind of you to say. Appreciate you taking the time to leave feedback. 🙏

Who are the '41' people who disliked this? Unbelievable. This was an extraordinary comparison. Thank you, sir!

[@bleryy2305]

Definitely one of my top favorite KZbinrs. You deserve more subscribers than what you have. Great video as always!

[@TechGearTalk]

Thank you so much for all the support. Appreciate you sharing it with anyone that may be interested 👊

[@Dennis_Reynolds_Golden_God]

This is by far the best review and comparison I've seen for these cameras. Thank you for showing actual sample photos that you took. Other KZbinrs like themselves so much that the entire video is just their face 😂

[@TechGearTalk]

I appreciate that! 🙏 Glad you enjoyed it.

[@vitormasson]

I was absolutely passionate about the idea on having the EOS 90D for both photo and video upgrades. Nowadays I stand on the EOS SL2, which is a pretty cool semipro enter camera since I live in Brazil and we must spend lots of $$ on these imported. Watching carefully your excellent reviews and reading a lot of other thinks I valuate the most for my jobs (as an example, the possibility of sharing batteries from SL2 and M6 MII, the ability to use lightweight cameras on my WEEBILL S gimbal, and the native quality itself of both cameras), I think I'll make now a backup setup for my SL2 to keep it always in hand and set definitely the M6 on my gimbal for videomaking! I guess I'll have no major difficulties using the EF-S to EF-M adaptor, which is in my case the only one "issue" having both DSLR and Mirrorless EOS bodies. Wish you well and congrats on your amazing videos, cheers from Brazil!

[@Capgains7777]

Great video! My 90d is coming today. I have had an 80d for several years and it has always been my favorite camera for great image equality, video quality, and most of all, ease of use. I have a couple Sony cams that have great features as well, but they are not as easy to use. The "Q" button and the touch screen for selection is definitly the bomb. Thanks for making this great video.

[@TechGearTalk]

CONGRATS Dan! Since you've been using the 80D for years, you're going to hold this camera and it's going to feel so "right". Super interested in your thoughts once you start using it - thank stop by and share (here or on TW or IG)

[@TristanPaine]

hows the stabilization for people who want to vlog and walk around? the 90d

[@potentialadventure]

@@TristanPaine I have since sold the 90d and am using a Sony ZV-1 for hand hold walking around simply because its so small and light weight. However, the 90d has stabilization available for video shooting that was not on the 80d. It will work well for vlogging if you don't mind walking around with a dslr sized camera and lens. I just find that either the Canon G7x mk2 or the Sony ZV-1 are so much easier for high quality vlogging with built in nd filters and stuff... Much more compact for my outdoor vlogging.

[@TristanPaine]

@@potentialadventure so when walking and vlogging with the 90D it wasn’t shaky?

[@potentialadventure]

@@TristanPaine it's not bad... Better than none, which is what most of the canon line has. It's definitly a skill you will develope as you go, but many things will effect the shake. How you will hold it.. gimble or hand, selfy stick etc. Then there's a lot you can do with your post editor which will crop in more but add stabilization. The trick is if you want to have good stabile video, the further zoomed out to start with is best. So on the 90d with the stabilization, and the APC-S crop of 1.6 you should be using a 10-18 or 10-22 lens. This gives you a 16-29mm or 16-35 equiv respectfully. If you shoot at 16 at arms length will give you more area around your face and more area for the stabilization in the lenses, camera body and then post production if you need it.

[@DarylHunt]

I purchased the 90D and so far I am really enjoying it. This was a great review I would recommend it to anybody looking to buy their next camera.

[@TechGearTalk]

Congrats Daryl - it really is a fantastic camera. Appreciate the kind words and support!

[@TristanPaine]

hows the stabilization for people who want to vlog and walk around?

[@BrandonSoum]

I am a M50 user and though the M6 is really nice in terms of portability and overall light weight; The 90d gets me on this one since I like the extra buttons and the screen up top when photographing.

[@AlexTheLi0n]

Dude hands down you make the best in-depth review videos. Love the channel man.

[@TechGearTalk]

Thanks so much. Appreciate you.

[@ChristianGail]

What an amazing, very detailed review! You do a really great job of breaking things down into categories and explaining the stuff that actually matters. It’s tough deciding between two awesome cameras but I think I’m leaning more towards the 90D mainly because of its build. Thank you!

[@MartianCitizen]

Mr. Tech Gear Talk, thank you for this YT vid. canon comparison...Your ease of delivery of the information and how you simplify the subject matter makes your vid a pleasure to watch and to learn from. I will be watching...more...vids. I will also be advising the home world of you channel. Lol. As always, with channels that I enjoy, keep up the good work and keep'em flying. My saucer is parked out front, do you validate....just kidding...no really, do you?

[@TechGearTalk]

Thank you Mr. Martian - glad you liked it and I super appreciate the feedback. Nice to see I have some extra terrestrial viewers and I'm grateful to you spreading the message throughout the galaxy 🙏

[@AhmedSalam]

A youtuber looking for a new cam. I watched most of your budget cameras reviews and still haven't decided between the SL3 , M50 or spend the extra bucks for this 90D .. but I subbed and like your videos so yeah , you earned those my friend. Keep it up and would like your advice on this dilemma !

[@Datblonddood]

Great comparison as always! Went with the 90D for now thanks to your reviews and am very happy. The weather sealing, battery, lens availability and form factor made a difference for me. I may upgrade to a full frame mirror less camera once Canon upgrades their current offerings. I'll be looking forward to your reviews on those at they come out.

[@TechGearTalk]

Super glad to hear you're loving the 90D Matt. I'm very curious to see what Canon does to the EOS R next. (please include 1080p 120fps )

[@Datblonddood]

@@TechGearTalk Totally agree. Not sure the full frame mirror less offerings are competitive yet, so I'm interested to see what they can come up with in the near future.

[@Datblonddood]

@@TechGearTalk also I'm wondering if Canon could actually pull off a full frame mirror less camera with an EF/EF-S mount. I'm sure that would be a huge sell for them. Especially since other OEMs like black magic are producing cinema cameras that take EF lenses.

[@TechGearTalk]

You would have to design the body to be about 1.25' "deeper" so that the lenses are at the correct distance from the sensor (which is what the adapter does). I wonder how users would react.

[@Datblonddood]

@@TechGearTalk yeah a good question.

[@akashmukherjee6880]

So concise and to the point reviews you give man. Keep doing what you're doing. Also I'm going to buy 90d soon for my wedding works😬

[@rickmears7670]

You're doing such impressive, professional work in your videos... I love that layered slider-dissolve shot of cameras lined up at around 20:35. Good that you cover cameras for both stills and video uses. Your coverage of the remote control app features helped me pick the M50 vs micro 4/3'rds last year. The mirror-less form has allowed me to adapt some old vintage Minolta as well as EF & EF-S lenses. I prefer the smaller size to the bulk of full-frame cameras & lenses, and settled on APS-C mirror-less as a compromise between micro 4/3'rds and full-frame, but I still find myself walking out the door with even smaller pocket cameras more often! Seeing new dogs, wondering if something happened with your, uhm, black&white boxer?

[@TechGearTalk]

Hi Rick, thank you so much for the kind words and for sharing you process with me. Our boxer Macy got really sick and almost died from pancreatitis. then started treatment and got better. Within 2-3 weeks, our other dog Rocky ( rottweiler beagle mix rescue ) got super sick and we had to put her down. About a month after that, Macy got very sick again and we had to put her down as well - she was suffering so much. It has been extremely sad in our household. I work from home and am used to spending most of the day with our dogs - thank you for noticing and checking in 🙏 We rescued a new dog - Jack. He's 1/2 miniature Australian Shepard and a few other breeds. He's a great dog and has helped cheer us up.

[@abbaroonie1625]

Great review thanks......still can't decide waaaaaaaaa. If only one of them had no record limit! that might do it for me...gotta keep on lookin'

[@TechGearTalk]

Thank you so muc 🙏🏻 You'll probably want the a6400 then... kzbin.info/www/bejne/aWnTqHSwotl4h5I

[@zerospecs2331]

I know. So frustrating lol. Main reason why I keep going back to look at the a6600 from Sony smh. But I love Canon's colors too.

[@MORTONRICK]

I'm trying to decide just this right now, so this was very very helpful. Thanks. Always great information from you.

[@Ashley_Schaeffer]

As a hiker and landscape photographer the weather sealing is a huge plus. There have been countless times where I've had rain mid-trail don't know if other cameras would stand up to that combined with desert dirt... The only downside is the raw 30fps burst mode and 4 higher shots in burst mode. After a while of use I don't really mis these features as the native burst mode no the 90d of 10 is plenty... The ergonomics and portability is not much of a factor for me as the 90d is quite compact for DSLR standards..

[@joshuadavidweir88]

Just ordered the 90D, should have it by Friday! Thanks for the review, confirmed my choice

[@TechGearTalk]

[@TechGearTalk]

You're very welcome - I will make some more M50 videos very soon!

[@xray111xxx]

One is more comfortable in my hand and mind, the other is more comfortable in my wallet. Both makes sense. I just won't get a 90D anytime soon, but to say that these are the make or break times for DSLR couldn't be more true. The Loyalty is something I am not blind on. I grew up on SLRs starting as a kid. But Mirrorless is so attractive and the Video I cannot ignore. $400.00 difference could go to more glass. But in my Gorilla hands, the 90D would be such an awesome fit. So for me the ultimate is fit. Fit for my workflow, fit for my budget and where that budget goes in the system. Going smaller for me believe or not a moot point and I have used both. So it comes down to where tech meets my sensibilities, not brand partisanship or myopic loyalty based on what others say as my sole decision making process. Now if the M6 had a grip kit, that would make me happy for my hands. Also a fully articulating screen the M6 doesn't have. I love that sensibility. If they do that I will forget the 90D entirely. Fun to watch your videos.

[@TechGearTalk]

Appreciate all the insight Vincent. Thank you for being part of the channel 🙏

[@zerospecs2331]

I agree Vincent. I love the M6 Mkii on this video as well as others I've seen, but a hesitation I have is the smaller size. That was part of the reason I was drawn to Sony's A7iii over the a6600 (larger size), but the a6600 has limitless recording. There always seems to be compromises when it feels like there didn't need to be. I love DSLR cameras, the 90d did stand out to me, gorgeous video. I'm just not sure about the size, and I wish either of these had limitless recording but oh well..

[@BDiTech]

Great review, can you please suggest. Which camera would you suggest for Tech related video recording 90D or Sony A7iii?

[@mhsvz6735]

Thank you for another excellent review! I’ll probably go with the M6 Mark II since I already have the 5D Mark IV and the 5DS-R. Keep up the good work, really enjoy your channel!

[@TechGearTalk]

Appreciate you being part of the channel! I love that 5DS-R too

[@erikjuarezdk2367]

Once again you just made me choose the right camera.. I only have lenses that go with my old 80d (EF/EFS), and cant afford to buy more lenses, if I switch the whole body.. But that non auto-focus 120 fps kinda kills it for me as far as the 90d goes.. thanks again

[@harpo.marx1917]

I have several Canon EF 16-35 / 50/100 macro and 70-200 optics, and my intention is to shoot on video. I have an easy solution, buy a Canon EOS 90D body, but since there are adapters for other bodies, the optics that I have, would they behave well like the native ones for M6 MKII? If the economic factor is a problem for us, is the 90D still a better option?

[@BradinManheim]

For me, the three reasons to get the 90D were: lenses, lenses, and lenses. I already had 5 EF and EF-S lenses. In addition the articulating screen is important to me. I would guess the M6 would feel more awkward with my big Sigma 150-600 lens.

[@cornerofthemoon]

I just traded my M6 MII (and lenses) for a used 90D, mainly due to the EF-M format being discontinued and I just got some more EF lenses in my arsenal. The "old" specs for both cameras are fine for my needs but the 90D has much better battery life and headphone jack.

[@RP-ms7lu]

Your review is best. Planning to buy m6 mark ii

[@tendingthenets]

I think the 90d makes the most sense for shooting with bigger lenses. Having good balance is good for long shoots at games and the weather sealed is a nice bonus. The viewfinder included should be a standard imo and sad to see you have to pay separately for the M6. The battery life is important factor as well. Only 300+ shots taking with the M6 and if you are shooting in burst shots for a couple of hours, you will never make it. You can always get additional batteries but not a fan of switching out during an event as you may miss something important. I'm going to move forward with the 90d and will check back in once I get a few days of shooting in. Thanks for the videos! Very helpful.

Having to additionally buy a viewfinder for a camera is like buying a car with no headlights that you have to buy separate. It is ridiculous. I will stay with the 90D

[@DRIVECLUBistimelessPS4]

Such a brilliant , in-depth video! I was looking through many and this one is by far the best, most thorough , eloquent and presentable, Thank you! Just got my 90D yesterday, but now doing some more research i'm starting to think i should've gone for M6ii instead, as my idea is to use it for travels and general daily. Maybe some pro work eventually, but it seems that portability is a main concern in the nearest future. Didn't expect 90D to be as heavy and sizable as i'm going from an amateur 100D which i was taking all over the place. I'm a bit confused, but nonetheless *so totally loving the 90D so far* ! :D

[@TechGearTalk]

Thank you very much for the kind words. I agree that the 90D is absolutely fantastic but it's definitely on the larger and heavier side. I really enjoyed shooting with it, but it's hard to beat the portability of the M6ii. Let me know what you decide. Thanks for joining the community!

[@saqlaq96]

Loving your reviews! Out of curiosity, what camera are you using for your own videos?

[@danizeien1346]

Hey there! Great review. I shoot family newborn videos and am torn between these two cameras. Which do you think would be best for filming but also allow great photography? Thanks!

[@ivanho1818]

Thanks for the comparison. Which one would you recommend for indoor sports photography? The M6MK II has higher FPS, but will the M6 MK II's AF be "slower" compared to the 90D's viewfinder 45-pt AF?

[@goose-F16]

Once Again, the best comparison of these cameras, along with the full details.. thank you

[@TechGearTalk]

Thanks so much Goose! Appreciate the feedback!

[@armando.visuals]

For me the portability of M6 is just HUGE i can use a smaller gimbal and easier to carry and less heavy and cheaper lenses that can perform to what i need and I should've bought this camera first but i decided to start with the M50 which M6 i think now its an upgrade. The 4k option with no crop is huge for me too. I focus on video only. Maybe i take some pics but just for fun with no edit for pic in mind. Video was super helpful. You have a great channel.

[@TechGearTalk]

I agree with you. It's so powerful for such a small camera.

[@mountainhealer]

Thank your for another great video! I've learned so much about cameras from you. And, because of your videos, I have been able to make a sound decision about which camera to buy for my daughter (who is a beginner in the world of photography) for Christmas (Canon M6MKll). In addition, you've actually made me interested enough to subscribe to your channel to continue learning and also purchase a camera for myself (I'm thinking Fujifilm Xt-30). One more thing... is there a particular case you can recommend for the Canon M6MKll? Thanks again!

[@TechGearTalk]

I'm so glad that the videos have been helpful and I'm excited for your daughter (great camera). As far as a bag for the M6MKII, it depends on what she's going to carry (lenses, etc.). I use the older version of this bag: www.peakdesign.com/products/everyday-backpack?rfsn=1850870.a7735&variant=29743300771884 because I can configure it to fit anything I need. The X-T30 is a fantastic camera as well; definitely one of my favorites. Would it be helpful if I did more tutorial on this channel?

[@mountainhealer]

@@TechGearTalk oh yes, I would love that thank you!

[@adoseofoptimism6680]

I want to upgrade from an m50. I love shooting wildlife and architecture, so just need more fps, megapixels for cropping and blowing up images into big prints, plus I want better autofocus. I use my camera mostly for travel and hikes, so i'll go with the m6 mark ii cause it is so portable! I already have the ef efm lens adapter, have a few efm and ef lenses so it makes the lens selection actually better cause I don't have to sell my efm lens. I only use a view finder for photography, not videos so its okay that I can't use a shotgun mic and viewfinder together, and never really use an external flash, haven't gotten that fancy yet. the portability of that m6 mark ii makes it win for me. I sometimes use bigger lenses for wildlife photography, the sigma 100-400mm mostly, but I don't mind using it on the small camera, I kinda like that it makes my bag lighter. Thanks for the review!

[@RohitKashyap-ek9bj]

How is 6 mark 2 for head wedding?

[@TechGearTalk]

I really like it for photos unless you need an external flash and a viewfinder at the same time.

[@samossio4987]

And that's how you make a deep review about this two cameras! :O a little concern about the speedbooster of kamlite or viltrox... I saw a lot of videos where they talked about the blurriness and lack of definition on the edges... Is there a way yo fix this (finer lenses or dime configuración?) Thank you in advance and congrats for the excellent content

[@TechGearTalk]

Well, you are adding an optical element to the lens, so some reduction in quality is expected but the benefits outweigh the cost in my opinion.

[@lewiswalker9289]

I currently have an M50 and I'm using a Sigma 18-35 f1.8. I like shootig street Photography at night, and the M50 isn't doing well with the higher ISO settings. Which of these would you suggest to get or is there another Canon APS-C you'd recommend for shooting low-light/night street photography?

[@TechGearTalk]

Huh Lewis - both have the same sensor and processor so I expect the high ISO performance to be identical. I prefer the AF on the m6ii via the evf - of course that means you need to attach the evf. Alternatively, you can use it without and it’s even more compact. Hope that helps.

[@lewiswalker9289]

@@TechGearTalk Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. OK. that makes sense. I understand. The M50 also has a DIGIC 8 dual focus processor as well. So, with that logic, unless I'm missing something about the more denser 32 v 24 MPs, I should expect the same low light performance with ISO with the M50 as the the 90D or M6 mkII. Is that correct?

[@TechGearTalk]

I haven't done a side by side because I don't really focus on low light (because of kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2PLpGt4hLmLmJY ). I feel that with lenses like: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4C1hWSam8qGZq8 it's never really an issue anymore unless I'm doing something very, very specific. The M6mkii is essentially better than the M50 in every regard.

[@topicruben]

Tech Gear Talk haha... canon always have good options 😄. I used to be a 6d M2 lover, but as you told me some time ago, with 100% good reasons, it was heavy and big, so yes, this one here could be a good choice. Now I just need to sell my 200D!

[@TechGearTalk]

Shouldn't be hard - that camera is still in demand. Keep crushing it!

[@franciscapedregon3877]

I am looking into purchasing one of these cameras (leaning more towards the m6 mark ii) but am using this camera solely for a side hustle for photography, portraits of family and friends, traveling memories (I cruise a lot with my family), and to capture the birth and life of my son. I want this camera to be the camera that I capture some of our earliest moments with our son, so I am curious what you think would be best in your opinion for a new mom who wants to capture everything she can of special moments? I did purchase a separate lense that I did research on and I am aware I would need an adapter for the m series because of the EF lense that I have chosen.

[@arttiz01]

great review!!!! thanks!!! I am still deciding, but you gave me a great push

[@TechGearTalk]

Glad it was helpful Jaime. Which direction are you leaning in?

[@arttiz01]

@@TechGearTalk I own the M50, which review helped me a lot as well. I have enjoyed the camera so much. But when M6mkII came, I was attracted to it, but not the lack of articulated screen and EVF. So maybe I will wait until a firmware fixes the need in my M50, like no Dual Pixel AF in 4K mode. But... owning a 5DmkIV and SL1/SL2, put me to think in the direction of better buying the 90D for all its features. I don't think I will need the 30fps burst characteristic of the M6mkII or the abundance of focus points. But headphone jack would be a joy. And the 32 mp of this sensor, oh lord!! I have a few EF lenses adapted in my M50 but running nice in my 5DmkIV and others, so I think the 90D is the one, with better grip and handling. Or maybe wait for the M50mk2, well... Right now, the 90D would be my number one choice. Thanks again, keep making this wonderful videos. I recently started making videos with Lumix cameras, and although my first love is Canon, I have enjoyed them so much (Lumix G9 and Lumix GX85, 4K wow!) that a G85 is in the way. But the 90d have attracted my attention, and I am looking around for good offers to buy one in good shape or new with a special price. Take care!!

Complete newby here looking for a camera to shoot video for my channel and I really know enough about cameras to put on the tip of a pin....especially with all the new electronics... After seeing a couple of your reviews and talking to a friend that just recently purchased the 90D, I have decided to pull the trigger on the same one. It's a bit expensive for me, but I think it will serve me well. The only question now is what lens? I think most kits come with the 18-55, however my friend chose and recommended the 18-135. I will be using my camera to shoot shop projects and machining videos, and maybe an offroad adventure in my Jeep, but mostly will be shooting shop projects and stills. Do you think the 18-135 would be a better fit, or should I get both? Thanks for what you do and I appreciate any advice... Razor!

The M50 is good, small and light and is easier to bring with you. The 90D has a better sensor but if you want those features, then the M6mkii will give you the 90D sensor in a smaller and more compact body. Hope that helps.

[@sl2608]

Hi Sagi. Enjoyed the comparison. Just curious about one thing you said -- that the M6MkII has shallower depth of field. Why is that? Isn't the M6 an APS-C body, like the 90d? Also I was hoping for some comparison of image quality for still photography, but the content was entirely focused on the video aspects of the two cameras. I rarely shoot video. Which do you think is the better camera for photography -- portraits and photography in general? Thanks

[@TechGearTalk]

Thanks for the feedback Donna. The only time the m6mkii would have a shallower depth of field is when using the speedbooster. Otherwise they are identical. I only touched on image quality for photos once, because it’s essentially identical. The real difference would be in using EF-m lenses vs L series lenses. If you plan on using an adapter. I like the m6mkii with the viewfinder because you get eye af for portraits. Hope that helps. Let me know.
