Canon EOS R6 Mark III Mirrorless Camera
The Super Hybrid
Built to be the high-performance all-arounder for creatives who work in both photo and video, the Canon EOS R6 Mark III deftly combines an array of hybrid capabilities, upgraded imaging, and revised handling and design to suit shooters working in a wide variety of scenarios. A new 32.5MP sensor pairs with DIGIC X processing to offer 7K video recording, up to 40-fps photo shooting, improved Dual Pixel CMOS AF II with Register People Priority, more robust 8.5-stop image stabilization, and the R6 Mark III now also accepts both CFexpress Type B and SD memory cards for flexible file storage.
32.5MP Full-Frame Sensor and DIGIC X Processing
Offering a 34% increase in resolution over its predecessor, the R6 Mark III sports a 32.5MP full-frame CMOS sensor that offers greater sharpness, print resolution, and cropping ability. This sensor pairs with a DIGIC X processor to help deliver excellent image quality, low noise, and a broad sensitivity range. Additionally, the processing power manages the advanced Dual Pixel CMOS AF II system along with continuous shooting, video recording, and IBIS functions.
Borrowed from the R3, the R6 Mark III’s upgraded processing suits the multimedia nature of the camera. Capable of processing high speed bursts as well as high-res 7K video, the DIGIC X supports up to 40 fps continuous shooting with a silent electronic shutter or 12 fps with a mechanical shutter, with AF and AE readings before each frame. There is also a Pre-Continuous Shooting setting that permits capturing an additional 20 frames prior to fully pressing the shutter button, to make sure you don’t miss split-second movements.

Intended for newcomers to photography, or those looking for a convenient alternative to post-production, a variety of SCN modes can affect how photos look directly in camera:

The available modes include Portrait, Smooth Skin Portrait, Group Photo, Landscape, Panoramic Shot, Sports, Kids, Panning, Close-up, Food Night Portrait, Handheld Night Scene, HDR Backlight Control, and even Silent Shutter.
- For video applications, Smooth Skin Movie, Close-Up Demos, Movie IS, and HDR settings can be used.
