- Canon EOS 6D Mark II Review Amy Davies, 2017-09-01
The camera market has changed significantly in the five years since the original EOS 6D was launched. These days, you can enter into the full-frame market at an affordable price via a variety of different brands, so Canon has its work cut out to make the 6D Mark II remain an appealing prospect.
In many ways, it does just that by packing a lot of enticing features into a solid and dependable body. If you already own a Canon APS-C camera, it’s a tempting idea - but bear in mind that the cost of upgrading may also have to incorporate the cost of upgrading any EF-S lenses, which are not compatible with the EF mount. If you already own a 6D, there is enough to tempt you to upgrade here - but you may be more likely to be drawn towards the 5D Mark IV.
The positive points of the Canon EOS 6D Mark II include its improved AF system, the fantastic articulating touch-screen and a new processor which facilitates a better high noise performance. However, there are sadly a few downsides too. Having a single SD card slot is disappointing at this price point, while 4K video is starting to become so standard that to see it left out of a £2,000 camera is definitely a let-down (though that’s less of a concern to people not interested in video). A viewfinder which only offers 98% coverage is also something which you usually find in cheaper models.
It’s a tricky task for Canon to produce a camera which is appealing to those looking to buy their first full-frame model, without taking sales away from its more expensive 5D Mark IV camera.
Overall, the Canon EOS 6D Mark II represents a solid and capable all-rounder for those who are new to the full-frame game, but with a more crowded and diverse market place than we had in 2012, it struggles to truly excite. It’s also quite a high asking price for something which is missing a few longed-for features.

Canon’s bet with the 6D Mark II is that there are enough enthusiast shooters who are eager to get going on the full-frame train to justify buying this (relatively) affordable camera. One problem, though, is that Canon users who are “stepping up” from APS-C systems and have a gear bag filled with EF-S (and EF-M) optics won’t be able to directly mount those optics on this camera—indeed, it can damage the internals. Like many “upgrades” these days, opting in can mean replacing considerable infrastructure around the latest thing, which isn’t always a viable option.
As an “enthusiast” camera the Canon EOS 6D Mark II has numerous scene and effects modes. Here I tried out the HDR Backlight feature on this, well, heavily backlit scene. This is an in-camera process that takes three exposures in quick succession and then combines them for a wider dynamic range. (Note: This was about a six-stop spread in light values and a single shot simply could not handle the range.) HDR Backlight did a creditable job and comes in very handy for anyone confronted with this type of extreme contrast lighting condition.
That aside, the introduction of the Canon EOS 6D Mark II might just signal a time when full-frame will become more standard fare in affordable DSLRs, and although pros and super-enthusiasts (with budgets to match) are unlikely to use this as a “second body,” there’s enough here to satisfy the intended audience in terms of flexibility, speed, and refined functionality. In short, the EOS 6D Mark II might just fill a “niche,” in marketing terms, for photographers who desire a very serviceable full-frame camera that delivers both pro-style and enthusiast options. There are many nuances and customizable features, and, especially in Raw mode, results that are highly malleable and yield very good quality images.

FOR
- Excellent Live View focusing
- Comfy grip
- Refined touchscreen control
- Useful vari-angle display
- Connectivity options
AGAINST
- Only 98% viewfinder coverage
- Absence of 4K a disappointment
- Limited AF coverage
- Poor dynamic range
- No USB 3.0
With the EOS 6D Mark II Canon has certainly made some significant improvements over the outgoing EOS 6D, packing in a host of new features including a fresh sensor, a faster processor, a much more credible AF system and a stronger burst rate. It's a much more well-rounded and better specified camera than the EOS 6D, but it's not without its issues.
The poor dynamic range is disappointing, and while the boost in AF performance is definitely welcome, coverage is too heavily weighted to the centre. The lack of a 100% viewfinder is also a pity, and the fact that the model misses out on 4K video will disappoint some.
These issues take the shine off what is otherwise a very nice full-frame DSLR that's a pleasure to shoot with, with the vari-angle touchscreen a nice bonus. It will certainly please Canon users looking to make the move into full-frame photography, but others might be better served elsewhere.
