Canon EOS R6 V

The EOS R6 V (pro tier, 76) is Canon's new video-first take on the R6 line, a full-frame RF cinema-style body shooting 7K RAW with dual CFexpress B/SD slots at 688g. It's aimed at shooters who put video first and want 7K RAW capture. Stills-first photographers are better matched to the R6 Mark II, which keeps the photo-centric handling.
