  I bought the Canon EOS R6 II with high hopes that it would be the ultimate camera for my needs. In the end, I kept it for less than a month and sold it, as my experience with it was filled with disappointments.
  The image quality is clearly good, with excellent performance in low light, but the overall package does not justify its price. The autofocus system is fast, but not as reliable as advertised, especially in more demanding conditions. I also found the menu and the overall operation of the camera quite complicated, resulting in me wasting time on settings instead of focusing on shooting.
  One of the biggest problems for me was the weight and size, especially when combined with RF lenses. The camera is simply too bulky to be enjoyable to use for everyday or travel shots. Additionally, the battery performance was not up to my expectations, especially for a mirrorless camera in this category.
  After being disappointed by the Canon R6 II, I decided to sell it and try the Fujifilm X-T5, thinking that perhaps I would find the balance there. However, I faced new disappointments there as well.
  Ultimately, I ended up with the OM System OM-5, and I admit it was the most pleasant surprise. A camera that doesn't catch your eye at first glance, but offers portability, reliability, excellent stabilization, and image quality that competes with much more expensive options. The OM-5 combines everything I was looking for in a camera, without having to carry weight or pay extra for features I don't use.
  The Canon EOS R6 II is a powerful camera for specific needs, but for me, it failed to find its place in my gear. If you are looking for something versatile, user-friendly, and reliable, look elsewhere; perhaps the OM-5 is what you need!

  A product among the few. Perfect quality body but they raised the price by €1000 on the R6 ii without any explanation. In the rest of the world, the body is under 2 grand..It is what it is.

  Purchased for professional use a year ago, and since then it has gone for service 2 times, please note. Good quality materials, but it seems to lack in durable mechanical parts compared to the High End series. The price is overrated. An open, honest approach to reviews would not only enhance the company's credibility but could also help consumers make more informed and stronger choices.

  Owner of the camera for half a year.
  Coming from the classic R and RP, the leap was quite big.
  Absolutely no complaints about the construction, the camera is comfortable to hold and doesn't tire the hand.
  The photos it takes, even with old EF lenses, are incredibly clear and the autofocus is truly amazing.
  As for video, the camera shoots very clean 4K and it's important that it doesn't crop at 60fps.
  The only negatives for me are the micro HDMI, which is garbage, and I wonder why companies still use it, and the camera's log profile, which is quite good and honest compared to older Canon models in its category. I think Canon should have a similar log to the C log 2, if not the same, which would be a bit more flexible than the C log 3. Overall, the camera is very reliable, I use it professionally and it hasn't disappointed me in any of my projects!
  If you're a photographer, don't think twice, especially if you're already in the Canon system!
  If you're a videographer and you're serious about it, go for the Canon Cine series or switch to another brand, although at this price point, you won't find much better elsewhere. However, if you're shooting content for YouTube or social media, or even for jobs that require a bit of video and you're not shooting a film, etc., the camera is perfect for those purposes!

  It is a very good camera that delivers on its promises. I know three professional photographers, reporters, and wedding photographers who are super satisfied. I won't hide from you that I was a little disappointed with the grip, especially with large lenses like the 70-200. Having been accustomed to the 5D (mk2 mk3 mk4) and the R6 mk2 for quite a few years, it seems to me like an amateur camera. Not only in terms of build quality but also in its menus. It is clear that Canon with this model is targeting a wider audience, from the knowledgeable to the beginner blogger. Despite my disappointment, I must note the excellent video quality, the amazing performance at high ISOs, and of course, the very good autofocus.
