Canon's full-frame R6 V vlogging camera shoots up to 7K RAW video - Engadget
"Canon is targeting creators again with its first full-frame vlogging camera, the R6 V, offering powerful features like a 32.5MP sensor, 7K RAW video, open gate recording and in-body stabilization. Based on the Canon R6 III, it's aimed at users who "capture video on a daily basis," the company said, so it offers a flip-out screen, zoom lever and active cooling, but lacks an electronic viewfinder. The sensor isn't stacked, so rolling shutter distortion may be an issue in some shooting situations."
"Though clearly smaller than the R6 III, the R6 V is only slightly lighter at 1.52 pounds compared to 1.54 pounds due to the added heft of the active cooling. Unlike other vlogging models from Sony and others, it has a chunky grip that should make it easier to hold, along with full manual controls, a zoom lever, dual card slots (SD UHS-II and CFexpress B) and a full-sized LP-E6P battery. It also comes with the ports creators need, including microphone, headphone, HDMI (full-sized) and USB-C."
"What makes this camera extra attractive to vloggers compared to rival models like Sony's ZV-E1 are the professional video formats on tap. The R6 III can capture up to 7K 60 fps 12-bit RAW video with 2K proxies (30 fps RAW standard and 60 fps RAW light), along with 7K 30p open gate for creators who release on both vertical and horizontal platforms. For slow-mo, you get 4K at up to 120 fps and 2K DCI at 180 fps. It offers 10-bit Canon Log 2 and Log 3 capture, with up to 15+ stops of dynamic range promised in Log 2 mode, along with HLG and PQ (BT.2020) HDR support."
"With the R6 V, Canon is putting its overheating issues in the past."
The EOS R6 V is Canon’s first full-frame vlogging camera aimed at creators who record video daily. It uses a 32.5MP non-stacked sensor and supports 7K RAW video with open gate recording, plus 2K proxies for workflow. It includes a flip-out vari-angle 3-inch 1.62 million dot display, full manual controls, a zoom lever, dual card slots (SD UHS-II and CFexpress B), and an LP-E6P battery. Active cooling is built in to address overheating concerns. The camera offers microphone, headphone, full-sized HDMI, and USB-C ports, but it lacks an electronic viewfinder, which can be challenging in bright light.
