Canon cameras rock, we know it all to well. However, it’s always nice to see a confirmation.
According to the statistics collected by Map Camera, Canon’s EOS RP and EOS R6 and EOS R5 are in the first 4 ranking for mirrorless market shares in April 2022 in Japan. The Canon EOS RP?, you might wonder.

The Canon EOS RP was released in 2019, so it’s a bit surprising to see it ranked first.
Coming from our friend Mat at Mirrorless Comparison, the Sony a7 IV vs Canon EOS R6 review doesn’t let a question unanswered. Don’t look further if you want to learn about how these two cameras compare. From Mat’ conclusion:
In terms of autofocus, the two cameras are on the same level. You need specific situations to see a small advantage for one or the other, but overall they deliver an excellent level of speed and precision, and a similar keeper rate.
The R6 maintains an advantage with in-body image stabilisation (photos especially) and continuous shooting speed. I also prefer the Canon ergonomics, although the Sony is much better than before, and offers more customisation.
Concerning image quality, the main difference is the higher resolution of the A7 IV, which adds a bit more noise at high ISO, but has nothing to fear when it comes to dynamic range.
Then, there is video, where I think the A7 IV has the edge. Not only does it deliver more latitude with HDR and Log profiles, but it also has more codecs to offer, higher bitrates and can record for longer without overheating. The latter remains Canon’s weakest point.
The only real advantage for the R6 when it comes to movies is the possibility to record 4K 60p with a small sensor crop, whereas you need to accept a 1.5x crop on the A7 model.
You can dive into the Sony a7 IV vs Canon EOS R6 comparison also by watching the video-version of the review. The video review comes in two parts, the first comparing both cameras for photography, the second for video making. Enjoy.
Alex Barrera wonders if medium format is worth it, and compares the Fujifilm GFX100S with the Canon EOS R6. It’s a short video so I won’t spoil it, but the answer is “not really” :-)
In his Sony a7 IV vs Canon EOS R6 review, Benj Haisch tests both cameras with an eye on wedding and portrait photography.
The Sony A7IV and the Canon R6 are most likely going to be the most popular cameras in that prosumer line, especially for wedding photographers like me. Today we compare resolution, high iso, and the overall feel and use of each camera.
Canon released a new firmware update for the EOS R5 and the EOS R6. The firmware update corrects an issue some users had with the previous firmware version.
Firmware Version 1.5.1 incorporates the following fix:
1. Fixes an issue that in rare instances, the camera may become inoperable when shooting in the Servo AF setting while operating the <AF-ON> button.
