Introducing the Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6: a powerhouse for stills and video
"From an image quality perspective, the 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6 offers a new 20.1MP sensor with full-frame quality but with a particular emphasis on low-light performance with an ISO range up to 102,400," says Canon Europe Product Marketing Manager John Maurice. "Autofocus speed and tracking is also greatly improved thanks to the DIGIC X processor giving body, head, face and animal tracking AF, and frame rates well in excess of the Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播 with a 12fps mechanical shutter and up to 20fps when using the electronic shutter.1
"The Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6 is a responsive, quick camera, but it's also full-frame. Full-frame has traditionally been advantageous in low-light situations, and speed has always been useful for action and events, so now you're looking at a powerful camera suitable for a full range of genres."
With 4K video at up to 60p and a wide dynamic range, as well as a high-resolution electronic viewfinder, weather-resistant body and dual card slots, the Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6 is particularly suited to capturing portraits, weddings and action, as well as for documentary and music video production.

Outstanding low-light performance
Like Canon's new flagship pro DSLR, the Canon EOS-1D X Mark III, the Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6 has a DIGIC X series processor. "The underlying technology, signal-to-noise ratio and dynamic range are comparable," says John. "If you're looking for performance in low light or when using higher ISOs, the Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6 will give you the next level of performance compared to previous EOS cameras in this category, particularly useful for photographers shooting indoors at events."
Dancing into the light: the first stills shoot with the 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6
The Full Frame 20.1MP CMOS sensor offers high-sensitivity performance for stills and movies, with a native ISO range of ISO102,400, expandable up to ISO204,800, compared to the top expansion setting of ISO102,400 in the 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播. While some professionals may demand the 45MP resolution of the top-of-the-range Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播5, the Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6's sensor offers most users an optimum balance of resolution and low-light performance, dynamic range and shooting speed, with the benefit of reduced file sizes and less post-processing time, while still delivering ample resolution for poster-size prints if required.
The Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6 also offers unparalleled AF performance in low light, being capable of autofocus in conditions as low as -6.5EV2 – roughly the light of a half-moon. This is the lowest light AF of any Canon camera. "At -6.5EV, that's situations where you can barely see," says John, "and it's testament to just how well the Dual Pixel CMOS AF technology works in all lighting conditions."
Intelligent, accurate autofocus
The Dual Pixel CMOS AF II system offers advanced subject recognition thanks to its machine learning algorithms. The intelligent AF delivers improved performance, detecting eyes on smaller faces than was possible with the Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播, as well as adding better support for subjects in profile. In addition to face and eye tracking, the Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6 can detect heads, and animals including dogs, cats and birds.
"Selecting the right AF point can be tricky, so it's a huge benefit if the camera can do it for you," says John. "You can leave the 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6 in the automatic tracking modes and the camera will pick up and track the subject by detecting human faces, eyes, heads, bodies and now animals as well. If you do want to take control, there's huge flexibility with the Dual Pixel AF system, which will now virtually cover the entire frame when tracking in the automatic or large zone area modes."
There are 6,072 AF points when making a manual AF point selection, which is done by either touching and dragging points on the LCD screen or using the AF Multi Controller, a method of control familiar to users of Canon EOS 5D and EOS 7D series cameras. The Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6 also features two control dials for quickly adjusting settings and scrolling through images.
Market-leading 8-stops of combined IS
The Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6 and the Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播5 are the first EOS cameras to feature an in-body mechanical Image Stabilization system, which delivers a market-leading 8-stops of IS when teamed with a compatible lens,3 leading to sharper images and smoother footage without the need for a tripod or gimbal.
"The 8-stop IS system has been made possible because the camera and lens work in parallel through the high-speed RF Mount communication system to provide co-ordinated 5-axis correction to reduce the shake and movement of the user," says John.
The camera's sensor physically moves, enabling it to mechanically correct shake over five axes, and this is particularly effective at correcting shake that occurs at a wide angle. Paired with optical correction, which is very strong at correcting shake at the telephoto end of the focal length, the combined IS system together can provide greater coverage and effectiveness than previously was possible with any single method. The largest combined effect is gained with the use of IS-equipped RF lenses, but there are also benefits with IS-equipped EF lenses, which can benefit from the X and Y correction and roll correction that the in-body IS system can add to the existing Pitch and Yaw correction of the optical Image Stabilizer technology.
"Typically, you would need a tripod to capture a long exposure featuring the smoothed effect of waves or water breaking over rocks in a seascape or river," adds John. "But during our own personal testing we have been able to achieve sharp handheld landscape shots with the Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6 with shutter speeds that are several seconds long – beyond what you'd normally expect with an optical IS system. So in the future it may not be so necessary to always carry additional equipment to stabilise your motion, so you can travel lighter and be more spontaneous and creative."
Since the launch of the Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播, a number of fast-aperture, high-performance lenses have been added to the RF lens range, such as Canon's f/2.8 trinity of pro zoom lenses – the Canon RF 15-35mm F2.8L IS USM, the Canon RF 24-70mm F2.8L IS USM and the Canon RF 70-200mm F2.8L IS USM. The Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6 also offers full compatibility with the wide range of EF lenses via an EF-球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播 mount adapter.
The ultimate stills-video hybrid
A hybrid camera offering versatile stills and video performance, the Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6 shoots 4K footage at up to 60fps (compared with 30fps on the Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播) thanks to a faster sensor output rate and the power of the DIGIC X processor. The high frame rates are supported by Dual Pixel CMOS AF II and the subject recognition and tracking also found within the stills modes. Full HD shooting is also available at 100fps or 120fps for extreme slow-motion capture, and the high-resolution 3.69M-dot electronic viewfinder works at up to 120fps, providing a clear rendition of what is being captured.
"The Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6 is very capable on the video front, with features you would traditionally associate with cinema cameras," says John. Canon Log allows for increased dynamic range, reduced noise and expanded grading options. Support for 10-bit YCbCr 4:2:2 internal recording and HDR PQ recording has also been added, while diverse capture needs are catered for with in-camera time-lapse, interval timer, and focus bracketing for depth compositing.
With 2.4GHz built-in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and FTP, FTPS and compatibility with the new image.canon cloud service, the Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6 is well connected for sharing imagery with ease.
"You can create great video footage and deliver it to a high standard," says John. "And you've also got a powerful stills camera. The Canon EOS-1D X Mark III raised the game in terms of technology and speed, and now you're seeing the benefits of some of those technologies in the Canon 球探体育比分_欧洲杯足球网乐¥在线直播6."
