Canon updates its DSLR line with new enthusiast full-frame and compact entry-level cameras

Canon Unveils EOS 6D Mark II And EOS 200D / Rebel Sl2

 Canon has finally put an end to various leaks and rumours of a replacement for its EOS6D model by confirming that a Mark II update will soon hit the shelves.

The EOS 6D Mark II is set to be the first Canon EOS DSLR to sport a newly developed 26.2MP full-frame CMos sensor, which replaces the 20.2MP sensor in the original EOS 6D.

Canon claims to have designed this to produce a wide dynamic range, in order to provide “exceptional” exposure latitude. It can be adjusted up to ISO,000 as standard, and up to settings equivalent to Iso102,400 when using the expansion settings.

The EOS 6D Mark II also has the honour of being the first full-frame body in Canon’s EOS DSLR stable to incorporate a vari-angle touchscreen display, which echoes the designs of its recent APS-C-based cameras such as the EOS 800D / Rebel t7i and EOS 77D. here, the screen measures three inches in size and boasts a capacitive touch-sensitive surface. a further LCD is located on the camera’s top plate.

The camera also employs the latest DIGIC 7 processing engine, which has slowly started to appear elsewhere in Canon’s various camera line-ups. this enables burst shooting at up to 6.5fps, which makes it potentially more useful for action than its 4.5fpsshooting predecessor.

Some may be disheartened to learn that the engine doesn’t support 4K video recording, although the camera does offer both an intervalometer and a 4K time-lapse option. Full HD video recording is supported up to 60fps, and you can also call upon digital five axis image stabilization to help steady footage. this can work in concert with lens-based Is when a lens that includes the system is mounted on the body.
