New Canon EOS R6 Mark II Review

From their conclusion:

The feature that really sets it apart from its contemporaries is its ability to shoot at up to 40fps and to pre-buffer bursts, to help you capture the key moment. Its rolling shutter means these modes aren’t ideal for capturing very fast movement, but it’s good enough to be genuinely useful. It doesn’t suddenly make it a mini EOS R3, but it further expands the types of photography the R6 II can accommodate.

Quite apart from the specs and capabilities, the EOS R6 II is simply a very nice camera to use. Its menus are long, but its grip is comfortable, its controls well placed, and a great deal of consideration has clearly been given to how many control points it needs. It feels like a well-honed tool, refined by people who’ve spent a lot of time using cameras.

[…]Overall, though, it’s a camera that impresses every time you use it and, up against some of the best cameras you can buy, that counts for a lot.
