Rated V for Versatility. The EOS V-Series sets a new standard with its first ever 32.5MP full-frame sensor camera, the Canon EOS R6 V. Touting impressive image quality alongside video-tailored ergonomics, this camera captures up to 7K RAW footage with an impressive 15+ stops of dynamic range. The V-series is a line of compact cameras that prioritize mobile video. Despite the V designation, the EOS R6 V carries a very similar spec sheet to the EOS R6 Mark III. They both use the same full-frame sensor and Dual Pixel CMOS AF II system, and both boast unlimited recording and 40 frames-per-second shooting speeds. Where the R6 V diverges from the prior model is in its build. Designed with user feedback in mind, Canon addressed the needs of content creators with video-focused elements such as a red tally light, a red “recording border” around the LCD, two recording buttons, vertical and horizontal tripod mounts, and a zoom lever for Power Zoom compatible lenses – all in a palm-sized form factor.

A Comprehensive Hybrid Solution. Equipped with some of the popular features of the Cinema EOS line, the EOS R6 V is versatile enough for pros while still being accessible to novices, whether it’s for social media, travel, streaming, or corporate work. The EOS R6V sports Canon Log 3, HLG, PQ, 709 Recording, False Color, Zebras, and four-channel audio recording. For beginners, there are automatic movie presets including Close-up Demo (for e-commerce marketers), Smooth Skin, Movie IS (designed especially for vlogging), and Color Filter with 14 different grading options.

Complex Projects, Simplified Workflows. The aim of the EOS R6 V is wider accessibility of higher-end features presented in a simpler way. Want to explore slow motion effects? This camera placed the Slow and Fast mode right on the top dial for quick control of both the video frame rate and playback speed in-camera. Capture that cinematic look instantly with Cinema View mode, which creates a letterboxed 2.35:1 aspect ratio.

Versatile Connectivity. For both burgeoning and established streamers, this camera is equipped with 5 and 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and built-in wireless livestreaming. For livestreaming there are four options: over USB-C, with the Live Switcher app (for multi-cam setups), over micro-HDMI, or with the Camera Connect app (for remote control via smartphone). Access these options quickly with the dedicated “Live Stream” button. UVC/UAC compatibility means you can use this camera as a webcam to stream live video with the broadcasting software of your choice, directly through social media, or with video conferencing software like Zoom.

Lenses to Use with the EOS R6 V. This is an full-frame sensor camera and it will pair with both full frame and crop-frame RF-mount lenses. It has a 1.6x crop factor (with some additional cropping in certain video modes). Popular crop-sensor lenses for compact hybrid cameras like the EOS R6 V include the Canon RF 15-35mm f/2.8L IS and the Canon RF 28-70mm f/2L, both of which are just over 3" long and slightly over a pound. They also each have a ring-type Ultrasonic Motor for fast and smooth continuous autofocus performance when shooting video.
