Absolutely love it.
I'm a long time video editor, but only an amateur photographer. I decided to take the leap from the Canon M50 into the Full-Frame world of the Canon R6, and I absolutely love it. Pros: 1. Feels great in the hand.Easy to hold. 2. IBIS is great even for handheld video shots 3. Overheating has not been an issue for me yet, and I have recorded a decent amount of 4k videos throughout 3-4 hour photography / video sessions. 4. CLOG looks amazing, especially through a CamLink / directly recording from HDMI 5. Autofocus is fast 6. Eye autofocus is great on people, and works 75%-ish of the time on animals in my experience. Sometimes it will grab the fur / back / feathers instead of eyes. 7. Dual card slots are great - already saved me a day of shooting when my computer decided to eat a card 8. Flip screen is easy to use 9. Menu system is super easy to use and navigate. I can change settings on the fly and within 30 seconds be in a completely different shooting mode Cons: 1. Battery does NOT charge in the camera without the very overpriced adapter. This also means it's a bit of a bust for streaming. You can use a third party adapter at your own risk to supply power. 2. EF adapter is required to use EF lenses, and those are quite hard to find right now. 3. Lens lineup isn't huge in the RF market right now, but it looks to be expanding These cons aren't necessarily exclusive to the Canon R6, but I do feel like they bring the value of the ecosystem down a bit as a whole. That being said I am absolutely in love with this camera body and plan to use it for many years to come. I am currently using the kit lens as well as the RF 35mm, and both produce great images and videos. All in all, love it.

One of the best cameras around!
absolute WORK HORSE of a camera, Great low light - perfect for concerts and events. Still great for portraits! I will be getting a R5C soon to pair it for better video. The R6 is not great for video, even with updates it tends to overheat. Still everything I could need or want for the price for stills.

R6
Great quality and price. HD is solid and 4K is sharp. Overheats in 4K60. Light weight and good battery life. Easy to use. Awesome for what I do, cars, weddings and real estate.

Best camera!!
Husband loves his new camera. He use to have a camera from 2012, and he needed an upgrade. Now he takes it everywhere and has started to fall in love with photography again. He even started picking up new clients. Definitely recommend!
