Notes on 19 values — test conditions and caveats
  1. 1Nikon Z5II, High resolution pixel-shift mode: Pixel-shift composite raises resolution to 96MP, but images must be combined in NX Studio on a computer.
  2. 2Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Native ISO maximum: ISO 204800 (H) is an expanded setting; the native range tops out at ISO 102400.
  3. 3Canon EOS R6 Mark III, In-body image stabilization: 8.5 stops is Canon's best-case center rating with certain RF lenses; peripheral and other lenses see less, down to 7.5 stops.
  4. 4Canon EOS R6 Mark II, In-body image stabilization: The 8-stop rating combines lens optical IS with in-body IS; results vary by lens.
  5. 5Canon EOS R6 Mark III, Pre-burst capture duration: Works only in the 40 fps electronic-shutter mode; Canon states it as up to 20 frames.
  6. 6Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Pre-burst capture duration: Pre-release capture works in RAW burst mode and buffers up to 0.5s of action before full shutter press.
  7. 7Canon EOS R6 Mark III, AF subject detection: Car detection is tuned for racing cars, per Canon.
  8. 8Canon EOS R6 Mark III, Max video resolution: 7K is available only in RAW Video mode; standard MP4 recording tops out at 4K.
  9. 9Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Video codecs: Movies record H.264 by default; H.265/HEVC is used when Canon Log 3 or HDR PQ is enabled.
  10. 10Canon EOS R6 Mark III, 4K max frame rate (full width): 4K 120p uses the full width but is not oversampled; oversampled 4K tops out at 60p.
  11. 11Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Raw video recording: 6K ProRes RAW requires an external Atomos Ninja V+ recorder connected over HDMI.
  12. 12Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Video bit depth: Standard profiles record 8-bit 4:2:0; 10-bit 4:2:2 requires Canon Log 3 or HDR PQ.
  13. 13Canon EOS R6 Mark III, Video dynamic range (log): Canon's claim of 15+ stops in its Canon Log profiles, not a lab measurement.
  14. 14Canon EOS R6 Mark III, Battery life: 620 shots is CIPA's rating using the rear LCD (not the viewfinder) at 23°C; real-world results vary.
  15. 15Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Battery life: 760 shots is the CIPA power-saving rating with the rear LCD; Canon's smooth-mode rating is 580 shots.
  16. 16Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Weather sealing: Sealed dust- and water-resistant build, not IP-rated; Canon cautions ingress cannot be fully prevented.
  17. 17Canon EOS R6 Mark III, USB charging & power delivery: USB-C charging and power need a capable USB-PD source such as Canon's PD-E2; not every power bank works.
  18. 18Canon EOS R6 Mark II, USB charging & power delivery: In-body USB charging and power supply require Canon's optional PD-E1 USB power adapter.
  19. 19Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Minimum operating temperature: Canon's product manual rates 0–40°C; regional Canon spec sheets list a 2°C minimum.
