Quick Verdict

Canon has delivered what could be the ideal Hybrid Mirrorless Full-Frame camera, capable of the highest standards for both stills and video. With solid, sturdy construction, well-thought-out control layout and an extensive feature set, what's not to like?

 

Hybrid full-frame cameras have until now hovered around the 24MP mark, a point at which speed of operation and resolution meet to find a sensible compromise. This stretches now up to the 32.5MP of the Canon R6 Mark III, offering a new standard of performance. Is this a compromise that merely meets all the conflicting requirements in a no-man's-land or is it a bold new standard of performance that stretches the technical capabilities to new heights? Armed with the superb Canon RF 85mm f/1.4 VCM lens, we set forth on our voyage of discovery.

 

Canon R6 Mark III Features

First impressions are of a solid, chunky but not overly large camera body, thankfully weather resistant as we face the February rain, and weighing in at a manageable 699g with card and battery according to Canon, but actually measuring at 690g as we are using an SD card as opposed to the CFExpress Type B. If this was a video review, then the latter option would no doubt have been an advantageous choice.

The main features are detailed below, but there are some nice touches that deserve a mention. Even before the lens is attached, the protective cover for the sensor can be seen, and this is a really good idea. So many cameras leave the sensor naked and exposed when lenses are changed, so the added security offered by Canon is very welcome.

 

 

Stills/Video is selected by a small switch on the left of the top plate. On the right, we have the mode dial plus two control dials, the on/off switch and the stills and video shutter releases. The latter is separate but placed well, so that shaky starts can be better avoided.

The vari-angle screen is crisp and sharp, as is the OLED EVF. The magnification of the EVF image is only 0.76x, but it serves well enough. The image does not cause eye fatigue and gives an accurate representation of the scene.

Canon R6 Mark III Handling

Although handling can be a very personal thing, Canon has impressively given us a myriad of options and possibilities to use and control the camera. There is a considerable amount of duplication, where more than one control alters a parameter. This is especially true within the extensive menus, where the top control wheel, the secondary control wheel and the rotary dial around the set button may all be utilised as we prefer. This is all fine as we simply choose the one we want to use. Dials and wheels can be reprogrammed as required and the camera can be set up to the individual photographer with ease. Spending time to set up things optimally will reap rewards in faster and more intuitive operation.

For this review, the lens control ring is set to alter ISO, the rear rotary dial is set to alter exposure compensation and the mode dial stays on Av. Aperture is controlled by the upper front dial. All the buttons do something useful. It's just a matter of learning what does what to get quick access to any features that might want regular adjustment. There is even a Colour button that gives direct access to the digital filters. 

The joystick moves the focus point, and when this is set to one point focus it can be easily relocated around the image field as required. To reset to centre, just push the joystick and it locks into centre, identified by a small dot appearing in the centre of the AF box. The joystick is well placed to avoid the point of focus being accidentally moved when the camera is being carried in one hand. There is something here that is rarely mentioned, and that is, if it is so convenient to carry the camera without a strap in the right hand, ready for instant use, then how does this work for a left-handed user? This applies to all marques, and is not singling out Canon. The only left-handed cameras I know of need us to look back at the 1950s and 1960s and makers such as Ihagee (Exakta).

In terms of what we have though, the R6 Mark III handles in a totally exemplary fashion, balancing well, operating slickly and delivering some fantastic shots. Within the Canon range, this reviewer would gravitate towards the Canon EOS 5D Mark IV in the DSLR range and this R6 Mark III in the R series mirrorless cameras, both around 30MP and offering a sensible balance between image size and speed of operation. The new camera is a pleasure to use.

 

[SECTION]PERFORMANCE[/SECTION]

Canon R6 Mark III Performance

The performance section is where we look at the image quality performance of the camera. Additional sample photos and product shots are available in the Equipment Database, where you can add your own review, photos and product ratings.
 

Canon R6 Mark III Sample Photos Previous Next

 

Lens Performance – The Canon RF 85mm f/1.4L VCM lens provided with the camera for this review has been covered and is a truly excellent and impressive lens. There are plenty of outstanding Canon lenses that can be coupled with the R6 Mark III and will yield beautiful results. True, the L series lenses are expensive, but the camera deserves the best to take full advantage of its performance.

 

Canon R6 Mark III ISO test images Previous Next

 

ISO Performance – This is possibly the best ISO performance ever seen in any Canon body. Images are clean up to and including ISO 1600. Noise just creeps in at ISO 3200 and 6400, but even here, the structure is very tight and the integrity of the test chart boxes is maintained. ISO 12800 is still a tight grain structure, although noise is now clearly visible. ISO 25600 sees considerable noise, but again, the structure of the image is tight. Noise at ISO 51200 and 102400 is very obvious, but the box edges can still be discerned even in the darkest areas. An excellent result.

 

Canon R6 Mark III White-balance test images Previous Next

 

White Balance – There are a number of preset options for white balance, and various adjustments can be made to these. AWB has the usual options between white and ambience priority. To this we can add Daylight, Shade, Cloudy, Tungsten light, Fluorescent light, Flash, Custom and four slots for specific colour temperatures. AWB is useful for mixed lighting and general use, but to keep the colours of a scene, the other presets do a great job. Cloudy is very close to the Cloudy or 81A filters we used on film, and this setting warms portraits very attractively. Shade is perfect for those purple-hued woodland shadows and is especially effective for fungus hunting.

 

Canon R6 Mark III Digital filters Previous Next

 

Digital Filters – Interestingly, Canon has provided Scene modes on this body, despite it clearly being aimed at the advanced amateur and professional users. There is a wide selection, and these have not been shot with this review, as each setting clearly needs the specific situation to be meaningful. The settings available are Portrait, Smooth skin, Group Photo, Landscape, Panoramic shot, Sports, Kids, Panning, Close-up, Food, Night Portrait, Handheld Night Scene, HDR Backlight Control and Silent Shutter. It might be arguable that using such shortcuts doesn't end up teaching much about photography, but then it also is true that the beginner could end up with better images and this would be encouraging in itself.

More general digital filters are found in the Colour mode section of the menus. There are two groups of these and samples have been shot of all of them.

Picture Style settings are Auto, Standard, Portrait, Landscape, Fine Detail, Neutral, Faithful, Monochrome and three User Defined selections.

Colour Filters are a bit more exotic and sometimes somewhat mysterious, but we have StoryTeal&Orange, StoryMagenta, StoryBlue, PaleTeal&Orange, RetroGreen, Sepiatone, AccentRed, TastyWarm, TastyCool, BrightAmber, BrightWhite, ClearLightBlue, ClearPurple and ClearAmber.

 

Video –  We might expect a Canon Hybrid body to have a good set of video options:

• Open gate recording up to 30fps
• DCI 7K RAW up to 60fps
• 4K UHD up to 120fps
• 2K up to 180fps
• FHD up to 180fps
• Canon log 2, 3, HDR PQ and Canon 709
• Time lapse up to 4K 30fps

Quality of impromptu filming is excellent and focus tracks well. Stability is also excellent, and although a close look at the video aspects of the camera is outside the main focus of this review, it's clear that there is great potential for some convincing quality footage.

 

[SECTION]VERDICT[/SECTION]

 

 

Value For Money

The [AMUK]Canon R6 Mark III|Canon+R6+Mark+III[/AMUK] is priced at £2799.

To put this in perspective, let's look at a range of marques and prices:

Canon 

• [AMUK]R6 II|Canon+R6+II[/AMUK], £2199
• [AMUK]R5 II|Canon+R5+II[/AMUK], £4399
• [AMUK]R5|Canon+R5[/AMUK], £3149

Nikon

• [AMUK]Z6 III|Nikon+Z6+III[/AMUK], £2499
• [AMUK]Z7 II|Nikon+Z7+II[/AMUK], £2499
• [AMUK]Zf|Nikon+Zf[/AMUK], £2299

Panasonic Lumix

• [AMUK]S1R II|Panasonic+Lumix+S1R+II[/AMUK], £2999
• [AMUK]S1 IIE|Panasonic+Lumix+S1+IIE[/AMUK], £2199

Sony

• [AMUK]A7 IV|Sony+A7+IV[/AMUK], £2099
• [AMUK]A7 V|Sony+A7+V[/AMUK], £2799
• [AMUK]A7R V|Sony+A7R+V[/AMUK], £2999

These are all full frame, admittedly some rather more or less than the 32.5MP of the R6 Mark III. On that basis and its intended market place, probably the Sony A7 V is the closest competitor. Both are equally priced, so looking at lens costs, features, and handling are the factors that will separate the options out.

 

Canon R6 Mark III Verdict

This could end up being a battle of Giants as the Canon R6 Mark III pushes strongly into the full-frame hybrid camera market. There are so many great cameras, so looking at the cameras themselves is only the beginning. The lens range, the ability to use adapters to explore other ranges, and the availability or not of third-party options are all part of the bigger overall picture. The lens costs are likely to be high, as it would seem a waste to add a low-cost kit lens to a camera as fine as the R6 Mark III.

Of course, the cameras listed as possible alternatives are all very different beasts and in the end, it's down to handling and any specific requirements that the photographer may have. The R6 Mark III is certainly a terrific option, sturdy, efficient in handling and capable of the highest quality, both for stills and video. The noise control is also quite possibly the best seen so far from Canon.

Such a meeting of fine qualities leaves us with a very powerful option that is, inevitably, an Editor's Choice.

 

Canon R6 Mark III Pros

• Great images and video
• Well-thought-out control layout
• ISO performance is excellent
• Very fast and responsive AF
• Customisation options
• High-quality construction
• Moisture and dust resistance
• High-quality EVF

 

Canon R6 Mark III Cons

• Expensive
• No third-party lenses

We thought we'd put together a quick and easy to follow tutorial on photographing fruit and veg slices with a light source behind them which you can do indoors when it's raining outside. Why do this? Well, the bright light combined with a single or even a few slices of fruit or vegetable can produce an interesting 'arty' style photograph that's really easy to capture at home. 
 

1. Gear You'll Need 

As well as a camera and a macro lens with a short focal length you'll need a lightbox. If you don't own one, you can create one with a clear surface, a light source that can sit under it and something to diffuse the light such as muslin or tracing paper.

You'll also need a tripod, ideally one that has a centre column that can be twisted upside down or horizontally. By using a tripod that can do this you'll be able to work with the centre column rotated so your camera faces down onto the lightbox. This means your hands are kept free for chopping and adjusting fruit/veg slices, plus you can get closer to your subject. 

Don't forget your fruit and veg! Obvious choices are kiwi as the seeds produce interesting patterns but half-circles of onion, oranges, cucumbers and limes work well too. Have a think about how a particular fruit or vegetable may look when sliced up and placed on a lightbox. You shouldn't need to spend much money, plus you can eat any left-over specimens at the end!

  2. Preparation Is Key

 

Get your chopping board out and cut thin slices from your fruit/vegetable. Make sure you cut even slices so when the light passes through, you won't have one part that's darker than the other. Use a clean, sharp knife to slice your fruit/vegetable then place the slice on the lightbox.

Where possible, work away from windows, turn off your house lights and you may want to close the curtains/blinds to limit the amount of light coming in if it's bright outside. 

  3. Placement & Design 

If you're using multiple slices or various fruits/vegetables think about your composition. Repetition and patterns always work well and for some reason, working with odd items gives you a shot that's more pleasing to the eye. This doesn't mean you can't work with even numbers as they can work but the rule of odds is something you should just keep in mind.

  4. Setting Up The Shot

1. As with most close-up work, it's best to switch from auto focus to manual to stop your lens 'searching'. 
2. Take a test shot and check the exposure as the bright light may fool your camera into underexposing. If this happens, switching to a + exposure compensation should fix the problem or you can work in manual if you prefer.
3. You want the background to be bright but not so bright that you can't see the shapes and patterns in the segment of fruit or vegetable you're working with.
4. Good depth of field is needed and if you find problems with camera shake, switch your self-timer on so you have time to move away from the camera before the exposure's captured.

Photography forums, YouTube comment sections, and gear review threads would have you believe that the path to better images runs through spec sheets and brand allegiances. Spend enough time in these spaces and you might start to think that your sensor size is holding you back, or that real photographers only shoot in manual mode, or that your follower count reflects the quality of your work. None of this is true, but it takes time and experience to see through it.

Vary your landscape photography perspectives. Learn how adjusting your tripod's height can completely transform your wide angle compositions. 

In landscape photography, we often obsess over the technical trinity of exposure: aperture, shutter speed, and ISO. We also concentrate on techniques such as filters and exposure bracketing. When working with wide angle lenses, there is another variable that is frequently overlooked, mostly by beginners, yet equally critical to the final composition: perspective.

[Read More]

Every photographer has a collection of images that almost worked. The composition was there, the moment was right, but something about the light fell flat, or the exposure didn't quite capture what your eyes saw in person. We also tend to accumulate old family photographs in shoeboxes and drawers, images yellowed by time and marked by creases from decades of handling. These are the kinds of problems that used to require either significant manual work in Photoshop or simply acceptance that some photos couldn't be saved.

Carrying a small camera to a place like Malibu sounds casual, but it exposes how you shoot when nothing else gets in the way. The choices you make in the field usually echo later when deciding what images deserve space on your website.

Travel photography can leave you frustrated even when the images are sharp and well exposed. You come home with full hard drives and a quiet sense that none of it really landed.

Shooting a landscape with only a 14mm lens can leave you stuck with too much foreground and not enough subject. When the light is right but the lens is wrong, the choices you make in editing decide whether the photo survives at all.

The well known saying: 'Keep it simple stupid' is well known for a reason – it works. Yes, there are times when lots of compositional elements do work but by creating an almost 'empty' space, you can actually create a stronger image.

[HOOK]position_1[/HOOK]

1. Why Does It Work?

By cutting out clutter, other people etc. you remove potential distractions and it'll be easier for the viewer of your image to understand what / who your main focus is in the shot and what you're trying to say.
 

2. Subject Choice

 

Just because you're keeping things simple it doesn't mean it has to be boring. Actually, with this technique, you have to work hard to do the opposite and find a strong subject that can stand up on its own. This becomes even more relevant when you're using a large amount of space so your subject only takes up a small amount of the frame.

Also, rather than thinking about what to include in your frame, think the opposite and look for items you can remove.
 

Here are a few ways you can achieve a minimalist look to your shots:

  3. Blurry Backgrounds

 

An obvious way to make your subject stand out is to adjust your aperture so everything in the background is thrown out of focus. You can find more tips on how to do this here: Creative Aperture / Depth Of Field

  4. Plain Backgrounds

Studio backgrounds and other material can be used to hide distracting objects inside and while you're out, use plain walls, fences or if you're shooting small subjects such as flowers, try taking your own backgrounds with you. On the subject of flowers, you can lower your angle so you're shooting up at the flower with the sky as your background which can give you a minimalist-style shot. White backgrounds are an obvious choice but don't think you can't use some bold, strong colour too (as we'll explain further down the page).

 

5. Play With Colour

 

If your subject and background contrast your subject will stand out from the shot. You can do this with colour (bright, strong colours work well) or light, using a brighter subject against a darker background and vice versa. Just make sure there are no 'hot spots' which will pull the viewer's eye away.

Also, having a strong colour filling your background that's the same as your subject can work in some situations or try producing black & white shots which rely on strong subjects and textures to make them interesting. You could even use shapes and colour as your subject, creating a strong composition that fills your frame in the process. 

6. Space To Breath

When used right, adding space to a shot can work just as well as cropping in close. To find out why sometimes it's what you leave out of your images that makes them great, read our tutorial: How To Use Negative Space In Your Photos

 

7. Crop Out Objects

An easy way to remove objects that are at the edge of your frame is to use your zoom to crop them out. You can also use editing software such as Photoshop to crop your images and we have a detailed tutorial on how to use this tool here: Introduction To Photoshop's Crop Tool

If you find the distracting objects are too close to your subject to crop out, you could use the Clone Stamp Tool to remove them. You can also remove distracting backgrounds and replace them with plain ones in Photoshop, too.

Every photographer makes decisions about file formats constantly, yet most of us operate on habit, hearsay, or whatever our camera defaulted to when we first pulled it out of the box. The problem is that choosing the wrong format at the wrong stage of your workflow can quietly destroy your editing flexibility, balloon your storage needs, break compatibility with clients and labs, or degrade your images in ways you won't notice until it's too late.

Today, the new Viltrox AF 50mm f/1.4 Pro Z Mount lens comes to Nikon cameras. 

You know, sometimes a lens will just scratch you right where you itch. It can be hard to explain. Sometimes you’ll shoot with two lenses, both sharing the same focal range. In practical terms, you are expecting essentially the same result. But maybe one is slightly warmer than the other, maybe one is slightly lighter than the other, and next thing you know, you’ve discovered a valuable tool that becomes a permanent part of your rotation.

Photoshop’s generative credits determine how freely you can use newer AI tools, and most people don’t know where to see their balance. That uncertainty turns routine edits into guesswork, especially when premium models are involved.
