Canon’s second generation camera in the “affordable full frame” 6D line is here – the EOS 6D Mark II. As is now typical, there has been a fair bit of controversy over this camera ahead of its release as reviewers and forums have dissected the specification list and gotten dramatic over what is missing. Lost in the shuffle is the fact that Canon has upgraded basically every aspect of the camera, though there are a few key expected inclusions that are missing – like dual card slots and any kind of 4K video options. A few of the major upgrades include Canon’s “Vari-Angle” or articulating touch LCD screen – and I can tell you already that it is fantastic to have – along with the upgraded AF system from the 80D with 45 AF points (though they are more densely packed in the middle here). Though it no longer gets the headlines, Canon’s DPAF focus system for Live View and Video autofocus is the best in the business, and I’m personally excited for it to come to the 6D line. I’ll be sharing ongoing coverage both through new images added here, my upcoming review, and a number of videos covering the lens over at my YouTube channel. You can catch my detailed breakdown of the design here:
