For me, (and my M6 M2) the electronic viewfinder is a MUST. I really like that it’s detachable. Most of the time it’s in the camera. Really helps in bright outdoor situations.

I got an M6 mark II back in 2021 as an upgrade to my aging canon rebel 750d. I ended up selling it later on but funnily enough found myself missing so many of its features and quirks that i bought a full kit in 2023 and i swear i havent put it down since. Its so natural to use. Fantastic image quality and performance for its age too. I got the viewfinder and also the 32mm 1.4 ef-m, which if i could only have one lens, that would be it. God i love those camera

I have two of these. I used them for Photography and they absolutely crush photography. The sensor is amazing. For vlogging and filming there is an L plate that repositions the microphone on the side so you can flip up the screen with no issue. I beg to differ in these assumptions. The 32MP sensor is amazing for photos and the best fun and the best pictures I have ever taken are with this exact camera. For filming I would say it's kinda the worst. It's even worst than the M50 because it can only shoot 4K30 and it's not a real 4K image, it's an upscaled 3.6K to 4K. So it's not as sharp. Also it does not have any LOG profile and the dynamic range isn't very good. There are better cameras for filming and some of them are cheaper. The DJI Pocket destroys this camera for filming and it's cheaper.

I was in the exact same boat with the M50 & got a refurbished M6 Mk II a couple of weeks ago! Totally agree with the price, the slow-mo, etc. What I absolutely agree & really love is the M-mount. With the short flange distance, you can: 1) use a Viltrox 0.71x speed booster to make EF lenses faster & closer to its original focal length even on the APS-C sensor (i.e. 50mm f/1.4 becomes a 58mm f/1.2), all the while without sacrificing autofocus speed & accuracy, vs if you use an adaptor on a Sony or Fujifilm camera. 2) I can still use my dirt cheap C-mount (CCTV) manual focus lenses and a bunch of other vintage manual focus lenses that give great vintage feel straight out of the camera! The RF mount just can't match the versatility of the M mount in these 2 areas. Really wish Canon would do something to revitalize it instead of killing it.

@@miguelmonforte No doubt. As for my experience, if there's any it's been imperceptible without pixel peeping. The draw of using a speed booster is the extra stop of light that I get from it, so I tend to shoot with bigger apertures more than with smaller ones when using it. In this case, all-around maximum sharpness is not crucial. I've also been really enjoying the slightly exaggerated characters of whatever lenses I put on it. My 25 year-old EF 28-105mm from the film era has now been my default walk-around lens on that camera when it comes to taking photos with it.

Huge fan of the M6 Mark II. Actually have two of 'em and picked the second one up refurbished and save some $$$. The flip-up screen is okay but poorly designed since it's nearly impossible to use the bottom row of buttons when fully flipped up. A solution I came up with was getting a SmallRig vlogging cold-shoe plate. Small enough to pop on the bottom of the camera and hang a mic off the side.

So I'm really, really torn on going back to a Sony A6400, that I've used before, or getting an M6 Mark II. I love Canon cameras and the colours they get especially, but recently had a bad experience with the G7X Mark III and overheating very quickly when shooting in 4K which made vlogging on the go/in a busy environment pretty difficult, given it kept overheating and having to wait 10-15 minutes to cool down again before I could use it at all. I *loved* my A6400, but it did have some foibles, like the lack of any kind of stabilisation - either IBS or digital - which meant filming with one was *very* shaky at times, plus the mic input had this weird limiter issue that I couldn't turn off which would cut the mic audio if it peaked, meaning it was actually *more* sensitive to wind noise than other cameras despite using an external mic and deadcat on that. To me, the M6 Mark II is everything I loved about the A6400 plus a bit more besides - but mostly it's the overheating that concerns me, given my issues with the G7X Mark III. What's been your experience with filming 4K with the M6 Mark II? ^_^

Yeah, so I have not use this camera enough especially in 4k to have a strong opinion on the overheating.

The Canon M50 II will have a built in EVF and flip out screen and 24mp sensor where the M6 II has a flip up screen no EVF and a 32mp sensor. Both are great options just depends on the layout because the internals are very similar!

@@AndrewKnepper photography. About 10 years ago I was totally into videography and had the latest gear, pro audio, Canon 1D Mark IV, 5D Mark 2, the very best of Canon EF prime lenses. But then the whole thing was really cumbersome, dragging all the gear into the field, hours of editing on FCP, sometimes the models showed up, other times they didn’t EVEN though I was paying them. So I pretty much was done with video. Nowadays it’s strictly photography. Just purchased the Canon EF85mm f1.2L II today for the fifth time in ten years. On the M6 II it’s a 136mm lens which is a pretty small package that is really powerful, given the specs of the M6 II. Will be purchasing the Canon EOS R3 soon. I’m an 85mm shooter but I swear the Sigma 135mm f1.8 beats any 85mm lens for portraits. The thing with the M6 II is that Canon discontinued it because I believe it was eating into their sales of their R series mirrorless cameras. M6 II has 32MP, 12FPS, touch screen. uncropped 4k video…….so…….

I'm a pro photographer, I don't understand why do you think a camera is not for photographers because it does not have a viewfinder... I never use the viewfinder in any camera and for me is a plus not having it in my M6mkII, this camera is just fantastic for the photography I do (landscapes and portraits). For video and for what I do, I get much better results with my S23 Ultra specially in 4K 60fps even the mic on this phone is way better (but a huge difference) than any mic I attached to my camera, for example Deity. I ever travel with the 70-200L IS II + Adapter, EFM 11-22, EFM 22, Sigma 56mm and not so much with the EFM 32mm that probably I will sell because I never use it, I think I never used 50mm FF in any camera I had.

Yeah I'm not saying that you can't use it for photography, but I definitely feel like there are better photography cameras in that price range. The Canon RP for example. But I have used the Canon M6 II for some photography and it does get some sharp photos!

@AndrewKnepper
@AndrewKnepper Жыл бұрын
The R10 and R50 are both great budget cameras, but the budget lenses that you can get with them are not impressive to me... Also both R cameras have 24mp sensors while the M6 has a 32mp sensor. The M6 is more compact which is another pro to me. And the biggest pro is the Sigma lenses. Seriously can't be more happy with the Sigma 16mm and the Sigma 30mm. So all in all I had to go with the M6 II and I don't regret it!
