Canon EOS 90D vs Canon EOS R6
Every spec below is quoted from the makers' official pages — where a figure isn't published we say so rather than guess. Sizes are drawn at true relative scale from published dimensions, and the bag-fit row is computed against our measured bag catalog.
The 3 biggest published differences
- Battery life (CIPA): the 90D leads at 1300 (at 23°C, AE 50%, FE 50%, LP-E6N) vs the R6's With LCD Approx. 510 shots (at 23°C); With Viewfinder Approx. 380 shots (at 23°C).
- Resolution (MP): the 90D leads at 32.5 vs the R6's Approx. 20.1 megapixels.
- EVF magnification: the 90D leads at Approx. 0.95x (optical viewfinder, pentaprism) vs the R6's Approx. 0.76x.

Spec values are the manufacturers' published figures, compared factually — we don't rank cameras. Fit verdicts are planning estimates from published interior dimensions, not guarantees. See methodology.
