Canon EOS R6 Mark II vs Canon EOS RP
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 R6 II leads at 760 shots (LCD) / 450 shots (EVF), CIPA standard, power saving mode, at 23°C vs the RP's Approx. 250 shots (at 23°C).
- Burst — mechanical: the R6 II leads at 12 fps (mechanical shutter) vs the RP's Max. approx. 5 fps (Max. 4 fps with AF Tracking).
- EVF resolution: the R6 II leads at 3.69 million dots vs the RP's 2.36 Million dots.
