Canon EOS R6 vs Canon EOS R7
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
- Resolution (MP): the R7 leads at 32.5 vs the R6's Approx. 20.1 megapixels.
- EVF resolution: the R6 leads at 3.69 Million dots vs the R7's 2.36 million dots (1024x768).
- EVF magnification: the R7 leads at 1.15x vs the R6's Approx. 0.76x.
