Canon EOS 6D Mark II

      Photo Review 8.9

      In summary

      Like its predecessor, the 6D Mark II provides a more affordable entry into shooting with a ‘full frame’ DSLR than the 5D models, although with the price tag listed at AU$2599 in Canon Australia’s online store it’s not a cheap camera. It should suit traditionally-orientated photographers who want good imaging performance and a rich set of functions in a relatively compact and lightweight camera body.

      With one of Canon’s wider lenses, it’s a good choice for landscape photographers, while if  fitted with a long lens, it could meet the needs of sports photographers, despite its modest burst rate. Professional photographers might choose it as a back-up body for weddings and events as well as some types of studio shooting.

      Environmental sealing should make it useful for photographers who engage in hiking, backpacking and travelling, while wildlife photographers could take advantage of the remote triggering controls available through the integrated Wi-Fi and GPS. The video capabilities are limited in the modern context but photographers who like to shoot the occasional movie clip and are happy with 1080p resolution should find them adequate.

       

      Full review

      Canon’s EOS 6D Mark II, which was announced at the end of June, is an incremental update on the nearly five-year-old EOS 6D. The new model is also designed for enthusiasts, but brings higher resolution, the latest image processor, a revised AF system and a fully articulating monitor to the entry-level model in Canon’s ‘full frame’ DSLR line-up.  The 6D II is five grams in weight lighter and marginally slimmer than the 6D.

      The EOS 6D Mark II will be offered as a body only and in kits with the EF 24-105mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens, EF 24-70mm f/4L IS lens  or EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III USM lens. For this review, we received the camera with the EF 24-70mm f/4L IS lens.

      Build and Ergonomics
       The EOS 6D II has a chassis made from aluminium alloy and polycarbonate resin impregnated with glass fibre. It is clad in polycarbonate resin reinforced with special conductive fibre and glass fibre. Despite being relatively light, it has a solid feel, thanks in part to the generous grip.

      The front panel is dominated by the lens mount, which has a large lens release button to the left plus a depth of field preview button low on the opposite side. There’s an IR remote control sensor on the front of the hand grip and a self-timer/remote control lamp between the grip moulding and the lens mount. No AF illuminator is provided.

      Twin microphone holes straddle the viewfinder housing, improving on the single monaural mic in the EOS 6D.   A terminal for an optional N3 type wired remote controller is located below the lens release button

      The top panel has scarcely changed since the EOS 6D. There’s still no built-in flash; just a hot-shoe for external flashguns. The mode dial carries the same settings as the 6D’s, with three Basic Zone modes (Scene Intelligent Auto, Creative Auto and Special Scene) plus five Creative Zone modes (P, Av, Tv, M and Bulb).

      The rear panel controls are also identical to those on the EOS 6D and the 1,040,000-dot   resolution of the LCD monitor is unchanged. But, while the screen itself is slightly smaller, users of the new camera will benefit from vari-angle adjustments for shooting video or  framing  stills at awkward angles as well as the new touch-screen controls.

      As in the previous model, the 6D II   has a single card slot and can use SD, SDHC and SDXC cards. But only the UHS Speed Class  1 is supported. Although we were able to use an SDHC U3 card with a read speed of 90MB/s and write speed of 45MB/s in the review camera, we don’t think it operated at maximum speed.

      The camera’s interface connectors reside under rubber flaps on the left hand side of the body. Closest to the strap lug is the In terminal for a stereo microphone, while alongside the monitor hinge a separate cover protects the USB and HDMI ports.

      The battery compartment is accessed via the standard lift-up cover on the base plate below the grip moulding. The tripod socket sits in line with the lens axis and is surrounded by a ridged area that provides a secure grip for a quick release plate.

      The GPS   and Wi-Fi capabilities are essentially the same as the 6D’s. Both consume battery power. An NFC interface is provided to make it easy to connect the camera to a smart device to allow remote operation of key camera functions plus uploading of images to social networks or online storage systems.

      While the original EOS 6D was classed as ‘dust and drip-proof’, Canon provides no details on the dust and moisture sealing in the 6D II’s body, beyond listing a ‘yes’ in the relevant section on the camera’s specifications and mentioning it in the official press release. If the port covers and snug-fitting card slot are any guide, it should be adequate for most potential users.

      What’s New?
       The most significant improvements to the EOS 6D II over its predecessor are the new sensor and image processor. While the 26.2-megapixel sensor offers a small increase in resolution over the 20.2-megapixel chip in the EOS 6D, more significant is the upgraded image processor since the DIGIC 7 chip has enjoyed two generations of development over the DIGIC 5+ processor in the earlier camera.

      The advantages of the new processor will appear in a number of areas, notably low light performance, burst capture rate and video capabilities.  Accordingly, the native ISO range has been increased from 25,600 in the 6D to ISO 40,000 in the 6D II, but  the expansion range is the same as the 6D’s with ISO 51200 (H1) and ISO 102,400 (H2) steps.

      The buffer capacity in the new camera has doubled for JPEGs and increased by 50% for raw files. The 6D II can support continuous shooting at 6.5 fps for up to 150 JPEGs or 21 CR2.RAW  files, with full exposure and focus tracking.  The battery is the same as the 6D’s but its capacity has increased slightly, probably through efficiencies due to the DIGIC 7 processor.

      It’s worth noting this processor was introduced in the   PowerShot G7 X Mark II in 2016 so it’s not exactly new. It has also been used in the EOS M5, EOS 77D, EOS 800D and EOS M6 cameras, none of which rates as a ‘professional’ model. By comparison, the professional EOS-1D X Mark II uses dual DIGIC 6+ processors, which support a capture rate of 170 consecutive RAW images at 14 fps or 4K Video with up to 60 fps

      The metering system has a new sensor and the focusing system has been brought up-to-date, both without introducing any new technologies. The main differences between the 6D and 6D II are listed in the table below.

      A noteworthy omission in the   EOS 6D II is support for 4K resolution, which is only available when shooting time-lapse movies. Movies are also recorded without utilising the full sensor area.

      Image Size & Quality Settings
       Although the 6D II provides a choice of four aspect ratio settings, the default is 3:2, which is the same aspect ratio as the sensor. (The other aspect ratios are obtained through cropping.) The table below shows typical image and file sizes and buffer capacities for the 3:2 aspect ratio format.

      Image format Quality Pixels File size Max. burst

      The EOS 6D II supports two video recording formats: MP4 and MOV, although the latter is only used for time-lapse recordings. For MP4 recordings, the MPEG4 AVC with H264 inter-frame compression applies.

      As mentioned, video resolution is limited to 1920 x 1080 pixels and the maximum frame rate is 60p/50p (NTSC/PAL). When shooting movies, users can take advantage of the Dual Pixel CMOS AF, which supports phase-detection autofocus across a wide area of the frame for faster and more accurate focusing to yield smoother movie recording.

      Engaging Digital IS adds 5-axis image stabilisation but crops the frame to minimise camera shake. It’s useful for handheld shooting while walking and when shooting from a moving vehicle. This function can interact with the optical IS function in Canon lenses to provide a higher level of stabilisation.

      Unlike many cameras, the EOS 6D II does not support still image capture while a movie clip is being recorded. It does, however, include Canon’s video snapshot function, which allows users to record a series of short movie clips lasting two, four or eight seconds and combine them into a continuous video snapshot album. This features has been included in consumer DSLRs since 2010.

      Playback and Software
       No software disk is included in the 6D II’s packaging; the software must be downloaded from the Canon website at www.canon.com/icpd. This site provides options for both Windows and Macintosh operating systems and on-screen instructions on how to install the software. The bundled applications include the standard EOS Utility, Digital Photo Professional, Picture Style Editor, Map Utility and EOS MOVIE Utility.

      Playback functions are the same as other Canon DSLR cameras.

      Performance
       The review camera delivered the expected, relatively small, improvements in performance over its predecessor. JPEG files straight from the camera with the default Standard Picture Style setting were clean with slightly lower saturation and contrast than similar files from the original EOS 6D.

      CR2.RAW files from the Mark II  provided ample scope for fine-tuning when processed into TIFF files with the latest version of Adobe Camera Raw. Saturation was a little lower in these files than in the out-of-camera JPEGs.

      Imatest showed the review camera came very close to meeting resolution expectations when JPEG files were analysed ““ and comfortably exceeded them with raw files. It also confirmed our subjective assessments of resolution across the camera’s normal ISO   range, as shown in the graph of our test results below.

      -

      Noise reduction processing produced similar results to the 6D’s allowing detail to be preserved in both JPEGs and converted raw files at sensitivities up to ISO 40000. Although noise could be seen in JPEG shots taken at ISO 6400, it was well controlled and shots were printable at A3 size, or very slightly larger. JPEGs shot at ISO 12800 begin to show the effects of noise at around A4 size.

      Noise became progressively more noticeable as sensitivity was increased to ISO 25600. Thereafter, shots taken at ISO 40000 appeared quite granular looking and slightly softened and probably shouldn’t be printed much beyond A5 size. Softening increased with the H1 and H2 settings, the latter becoming rather blotchy with traces of banding and obvious noise. Images shot with the H1 setting are just printable at snapshot size, provided modest quality is acceptable.

      Like its predecessor, the 6D II’s auto white balance setting delivered an attractive-looking colour balance under most types of lighting, both indoors and out. The white priority setting for the auto white balance, which was introduced with the EOS 5DS/5DSR cameras and is provided in the 6D II, goes part of the way towards correcting warm casts from tungsten and warm LED lighting, but didn’t completely eliminate either cast.

      The auto setting produced neutral colours under daylight fluorescent lighting. All the in-camera pre-sets tended to over-correct but custom measurement delivered neutral colours under all three types of lighting. Kelvin temperature settings are also provided and there is plenty of scope for fine-tuning colours in the camera.

      Video quality was similar to the footage we obtained from the EOS 6D, although at most times a little sharper, thanks in part to the improved autofocusing system. Unfortunately,, the AF system has a few weaknesses. We found it struggled to maintain focus on subjects that were within a couple of metres of the camera and moving straight across the field of view.

      We found no evidence of moirø© in any of the clips we recorded. Soundtracks weren’t quite as clear as we’d expected and, despite their separation, the built-in stereo microphones didn’t deliver much ‘depth’ of audio. We were unable to test the camera with an external microphone but expect it would deliver better audio performance.

      Our timing tests were carried out with a 16GB Panasonic SDHC U3 card, which has a read speed of 90MB/s and write speed of 45MB/s. The review camera took roughly half a second to power-up ready for shooting when the viewfinder was used or just over a second longer with Live View mode. We measured an average capture lag of 0.2 seconds, which was eliminated by pre-focusing the lens.

      Shot-to-shot times averaged 0.35 seconds when the viewfinder was used or 0.65 seconds in live view mode. It took an average of 0.8 seconds to process a single JPEG file and 2.1 seconds for a CR2.RAW file and 2.6 seconds for a RAW+JPEG pair.

      In the high-speed continuous shooting mode, the test camera recorded 59 Large/Fine JPEGs in 8.6 seconds, which equates to 6.8 fps. It took 5.3 seconds to process this burst. For raw file capture, the camera also recorded 18 shots in 2.6 seconds before pausing. It took 11.3 seconds to process this burst.

      When shooting RAW+JPEG pairs the buffer filled with 16 image pairs, which were recorded in 2.3 seconds before the camera hesitated. It took 13.6 seconds to complete the processing sequence. All these times showed improvements in speed over the EOS 6D we tested.

      Conclusion
       Back in 2012, the EOD 6D was a popular camera that met the requirements of most advanced amateurs and serious enthusiasts. There’s every reason to believe its successor will be equally popular, with the improved AF system, faster burst shooting with a larger buffer capacity, an updated image processor and a touch-sensitive vari-angle monitor making it competitive in the current market.

      We’re not particularly concerned about the lack of support for 4K movie recording because DSLRs are by their nature best used for taking still photos. If 4K movies are important to you, you will be better served by a mirrorless camera because an EVF is much easier to frame movies with than a monitor screen, particularly in bright outdoor lighting.

      The EOS 6D Mark II body is listed in Canon Australia’s online store for AU$2599, discounted from the initial list price of   AU$2999. The Premium Kit containing the body plus the 24-105mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens is listed at AU$2999  while the Advanced Kit with the 24-70mm f/4 IS lens is at AU$3599.

      Consider these the maximum prices you should expect to pay. You may be able to save between $100 and $200 on one of these bundles (and may find some attractive bonus offers) if you shop around online. But don’t expect big discounts this early in the product’s market cycle.

      The main US online re-sellers who market to Australians have the EOS 6D II body listed at  US$1999.00, which equates to just under AU$2555 at current exchange rates. To that you must add about AU$64 for shipping plus just over $300 to cover GST so you’d be much better off shopping at your local camera store.

      The EOS 6D is still available, with the body typically selling for around AU$1700, the Premium Kit for AU$2350 and the Advanced Kit for AU$2830. Canon lists them at AU$1999, AU$2499 and AU$2948.10, respectively.
