WATCH BEFORE YOU BUY THE Canon M6 MK II

[@DocBoA]

This was honestly the most indepth M6 MkII review I've seen. It's a great camera

[@TechGearTalk]

Appreciate it my friend 🙏 It's an awesome camera.

[@gianni2272]

I am quite happy with the canon m6 mark ii. I was doubting between this and the 90d, but im actually very impressed with the power of this little camera and the result of my videos. Size was a deciding factor for me.

[@tom_schroeder]

Thank you for your thorough review! I bought an M50 in December, but just bought the M6 Mk II here in March to overcome some of those limitations. This video helped me understand the pros and cons and make a confident buying decision.

Hello, now you prefer to take Photos with Canon M50 or M6 MarkII ? Which is best for Photos ?

[@tom_schroeder]

@@PHILGOODOK1 I prefer the M6MkII. It has a higher resolution sensor and additional features, but that comes with its higher price. However, photos with the M50 are still great, and I wouldn't hesitate to grab either camera for photos.

⭐️ Buy the Canon M6MKII: geni.us/XHsya3 (affiliate) ⭐️ Canon M6MKII + 15 - 45mm: geni.us/fw8j (affiliate) ⭐️ Canon M6MKII + 18 - 150mm: geni.us/kcV46fa (affiliate) NOTE: Burst shooting is at 14fps not 24fps (I was so focused on frame rates that I misspoke). Thank you @Chris Berlin for noticing! What's up everyone?! I hope this review of the Canon M6MKII was helpful. Did you like it? I think this camera may have taken over as my favorite entry-level mirrorless camera from Canon.The image quality is excellent, the dual pixel autofocus is fantastic and although I wish there was a fully articulating screen, the user experience is still great with the frip touchscreen. Was there too much detail? Not enough? What did you like, and also, what did you not like? What would you like to see more of? Would love to know what you think, good or bad. I am grateful in advance 🙏

[@clivegwilliam6588]

When using the M series cameras, I use them exclusively with EFS and full frame glass plus with the advent of speed-boosters (I have the Viltrox) this gives me excellent flexibility in getting the most out of my lenses. The M6II sounds like a no brainier addition to my beloved M5. I even have the EVF from my old M3 that I can use with it thus saving the 200 dollars. 😄🙏🏾

[@TechGearTalk]

Yes, for the best quality I use my L series glass with a speedbooster or an adapter. I like the 32mm f/1.4 ef-m and the 22m f/2 ef-m lenses as well. Nice that you have the EVF already!!

You are by far the most thorough reviewer of cameras I have found. In fact, and I mean this in a great way, your reviews/comparisons are so good that I can see all the upsides and downsides of each camera on my short-list so well that am still trying to decide lest I miss a great point you made.

[@Datblonddood]

@@TechGearTalk Thank you so much. I am basically stuck between an SL3, 90D and This M6 Mark II. Money is a point of consideration otherwise the the SL3 wouldn't be on the list, but its not the most important factor in my decision either. I want a good image, but also good video since I would use it for both equally. I am not a professional by any means, but I would also say I am a tier above a hobbyist. Again thank you for your review work.

[@TechGearTalk]

Hi. I would probably get the M6 MK II because it's priced lower than the 90D and provides equal image quality. You'll give up on some of the things I talk about here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJiUlaSZn6mjidE (weather sealing, optical viewfinder, etc.) but it depends on whether you'll actually need them.

[@Myselfsama]

I have several questions regarding the M6. I was super on the fence between the 90D and the M6 MkII and your video comparison between the two really sold me on the M6 for one main reason. The Speedbooster adapter. My main use case will be up close 4k video indoors where space is a concern and the sensor's default crop factor would be a huge pain due to lack of maneuverability. The adapter seems to solve this somewhat and seems to have the added benefit of allowing a lower F stop which to me seems like its worth $$$$ just for that fact alone. My questions are though: 1. Does the adapter interfere with the built in Image stabilization, OR the any of the EF lens IS? 2. Have they addressed the audio levels issue where you could not adjust levels during recording? If so an external recorder might unfortunately make more sense? 3. How does it perform in low light. I saw a 4k video test of the 90D in low light at around 6k ISO and it had very little noise. The walkthrough in your video of the hotel looked fairly noisy but without knowing other parts of your setup its hard to blame it entirely on the camera. Would the Speedbooster with a fast lens improve noise at low light? Thanks for your super thorough review :)

[@nguyentony_]

This video helped me a ton when I decided to buy the M6 Mark II. :) The video capabilities may not be as impressive as on Sony Alphas, but as you said, the ergonomics and the mobile app are excellent. Thanks a lot for the video!

[@EverydayFamilyFL]

Lack of EVF included takes it to another level of price range too.... Not a fan of Canon doing that

Unless you're in the US. But you can look at it this way: Instead of charging every person for a viewfinder they may not use, Canon is only charging the people who need it - just a thought.

Hey Sagi. Totally loved the review. As usual an outstanding, unbiased opinion on the M6 mkii functionality. I loved the stills and video shots and I like the Mexico scenes. Super quality. I see some of your crane M2 work too. It's a real shame canon didnt include the fully articulating screen we both like. In my opinion, this would have put the icing on the cake. The frame rate and 4K improvements provide good advantage over the M50, but it's still my camera choice based on the screen flexibility and price point. Take care Sagi. Keep smashing it..

[@TechGearTalk]

Appreciate it Ray! Good eye there! If I had an M50 as my only camera I would look at it this way: if I want/need 4k or clean hdmi out, I would upgrade, otherwise, nope. Yeah, that screen would have been great. I'm getting the most out of this one though.

[@RaySuesTravelChannel]

@@TechGearTalk Yeah. i get you. The reason why Canon have missed a trick here is the sales to vloggers. You are not going to use a 90D or large DSLR for vlogging. they're just too big for that. Even though the M6 mkii is slightly bigger as you've shown, it could still be the mirrorless vlog camera of choice for those who want 4K, a larger APSC sensor and the articulating screen. Now the screen is only flip up and not articulating this gives problems for external audio on top of the camera. If they had added that, then vloggers would have made the jump to the M6 i believe even given near the doubling of cost.

[@TechGearTalk]

Good point. There will soon be brackets that take care of that. Not sure if you saw my live show on the M6 where I show how I get around the audio issue with the Rode wireless go

I really like your videos explaining the devices. Would it be possible to make a video showing the M6 mk2 as a webcam with e.g. 32mm lens?

Great review, appreciate the thoroughness of bridging the gap between tech and laymen. Can you recommend the best lenses to consider for filming/shooting softball games?

Glad you enjoyed the video. The answer depends on how you meant the question. If you truly want the best then we're looking at lenses that cost several thousand dollars - but unless you're getting paid for theme photos, you don't need those. If you're just doing this for fun, then you can take a look at the 55-200 as it will give you the most zoom in the ef-m line up (for now). Check out this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHuXdJKIeaqaa7s If you need even more zoom, then you can look at a Canon 70-300 (it's affordable but is an EF-S lens so it will require an adapter).

[I also have a 6d Mk2.] In the digital age, I have always used Canon and I am familiar with the menus, idiosyncrasies, etc. and, of course, have a series of lenses that would usable with the adapter. I have been considering moving to the Fuji lineup for the next APS-C camera, but this video got me back to thinking of just sticking with the investment of time, familiarity and resources (think lenses mostly) I have with Canon. I just need to hope Canon will not abandon the camera market as it continues to get clobbered by its overall mundanity

[@TechGearTalk]

I support re-using all the lenses instead of doing a full switch (so hard to do). I love Fuji, (x-t30 and x-t3 if you've seen my reviews) and I'm also happy Canon released this camera. I want to see Canon release more fast ef-m lenses. That would let me know they are here to stay. So far, the 32 f/1.4 is awesome and I would get a Sigma 16mm f/1.4

Nice video! I noticed that you are using Zhiyun M2 gimbal, would you recommend this gimbal for this camera?

[@thekidsshow9979]

Which is better ? Canon M6 ii or Sony a6400 ? Thank you in advance 💕

fantastic vid with excellent resources! you sold me on this cam and a cpl accessories! My go-to channel!

[@artmcewen3165]

Great review, thanks! Sometimes I find jpgs from my current cameras (Canon G15, Fuji HS20) are just over exposed and washed out regardless of shooting mode so I’m looking to use raw mode more on my next camera (either an M6 mkII or xt30), however I’m not keen to spend days in post production for vacation photos or learning an overwhelming photoshop type tool. Are either of Fuji/Canon’s companion converter software up to the task without being daunting? Thanks.

[@AlexCruzHaha]

Would you say the lowlight on the m6 mark ii is better than the canon m50? Like the iso sensitivity before noise is introduced. These videos are so helpful.

[@TechGearTalk]

Yes, it's better with the newer sensor and processor - I would make sure that I also focus on using fast lenses like kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4C1hWSam8qGZq8 and whenever possible add light: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2PLpGt4hLmLmJY Hope that helps and welcome to the channel.

Thanks for a grerat review! Which gimbal did you use on 5:33, it looks good! Im thinking about getting M6 MKII for video work :-)

[@p0LinCEt0o]

Great video! Thank you, for making such valuable content for us! Do you think it's worth getting this camera if you're not planning to shoot in 4k? I plan to use it for youtube. For sit down videos, vlogs, and photos. I was looking at the M50 ..but I really want something that will last me for at least a few years... I have saved some money and I can afford it, but still, I don't know what to do...

[@TechGearTalk]

Hi Paulina - if you want 4K, this is the way to go, definitely skip the M50. If you want 1080p, the M50 is still a good option but not for 4k. You'll have no crop, plus dual pixel auto focus with the M6 MKII - you'll love it.

HI Great vdeo many thanks. I'm looking at purchasing the Canon M6 for Video but I'm also pulled by The Panasonic Lumix G5 though it looks slightly complicated for a novice user. Heading towards the Canon but not sure if the Video quality will be as good as the panasonic?

[@alexis1959]

Another amazing review - you did not mention the lack of the EVF and the implication of losing the hotshoe for the EVF making external flash usage impossible....

[@TechGearTalk]

Thank you so much for the kind words Alexis. Appreciate you contributing additional info here! 🙏

[@alexis1959]

@@TechGearTalk That is precisely why I have written to Father Xmas and askedhim to make me an M50 (or M5) with the internals of the M6II!!! Can't wait for M50 MkII (seeing as Canon has stated that the M6II is a combination of M5 and M6)... Keep up the great work - you deserve many more subscribers. From a big fan in Cyprus

[@TechGearTalk]

I really appreciate you being part of the community.

[@fuzzyduck5668]

Lack of EVF was mentioned at 9:57 and 28:35.

[@TechGearTalk]

That's absolutely true @FuzzyDuck - I think (I could be wrong) that Alexis was saying specifically that if you get an EVF, you lose the hotshoe and can't use a flash. Is that right Alexis?

Hi sir, for wildlife which one is good, Canon 90D, M6 II and Sony a6400, out these 3 camera which one is good for wildlife.

[@lttmorning123]

Hey, great videos but you probably need to update these videos as we know for a fact that Canon is phasing out the M series. The M6 MKII is already discontinued and obviously, we are not going to get any more EF-M lenses. I heard they might drag out the M50 MKII. I was torn between the M50 MII and M6 MKII, and thankfully decided to visit a Canon Store nearby. That's when I learnt about this. After a lot of research and considering my budget, I went with the Nikon Z50 because of the kit zoom lens. I know a lot of people complain about that lens, but I will upgrade when I reach that level. For now, I am extremely happy. ps: I am pasting this comment on a few more videos I watched so that it can help others too. Not attempting to spam or anything.

[@claudioschmidt5141]

I have a Canon EOS M6 and I am thinking it's time for an upgrade. I am considering the M6 II and the Fuji X-S10. I like the Canons specially considering that I have several good EF/EF-S/FD and even some OM lenses all of which I use with corresponding adaptors but I am tempted to jump ship to Fuji for its IQ, film simulations, impressive video specs and IBIS which would allow me to use all of my "vintage" manual lenses. Today I tried the Manual FD 50mm 1.4 on my M6 and noticed that the Digital IS is not available in manual mode... so my question is to verify that the M6 II does not have this limitation, i.e. that its digital IS works in all focus modes. All feedback greatly appreciated. Thanks. Cheers!

[@TheTimePostChannel]

The M6 mark 2 is a fantastic camera I really love it, but now that I have the m50 and I'm happy with it, no need to think about it for now, my m50 will make my videos for my KZbin channel look so gorgeous.

[@TechGearTalk]

You're absolutely correct. You should keep your M50!

[@JoaquimGonsalves]

Very comprehensive unbiased review. I love my M5 and the only thing keeping me from buying the M6ii is the lack of a built-in viewfinder. Dual cards I can overlook as this wouldn't be my professional use camera and I'm waiting for a 7Dii mirrorless replacement. My Fujis are good enough for professional work for now. Really hope they either make an M5ii or a new EVF that let's me use a speedlite on top of it.

[@TechGearTalk]

Thanks for the kind word Joaquim. I don’t know that they will make an m5mkii - but they should make an m50mkii

[@JoaquimGonsalves]
