Canon India has launched the EOS 6D Mark II camera in the EOS full-frame DSLR series. The camera comes with a full-frame sensor, Dual Pixel CMOS AF and Vari-angle touch panel. It features a 26.2-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor, perfect for low-light conditions and for background blur effect.
EOS 6D Mark II is equipped with a vari-angle touch panel and Dual Pixel CMOS AF technology for high-performance focus tracking in Live View mode as well as DIGIC 7 image processor for high-image quality even in dimly-lit situations.
Speaking at the launch, Kazutada Kobayashi, President and CEO, Canon India Pvt. Ltd, said, “As pioneers in imaging, we value the significance of a parallel transition between innovation and the landscape of photography. Taking a step ahead in this endeavour, we are proud to announce the launch of EOS 6D Mark II today, an all-rounder camera projecting the ‘Sense of Genius’. At Canon, we have always focussed on providing a cutting-edge technology to our customers with our innovative offerings. Building on the legacy of its predecessor the EOS 6D, we are for the first time making an articulating LCD on a full-frame DSLR camera. It will allow photographers to capture magnificent shots, fulfilling our commitment to nurture and enhance the passion for photography. Currently, we hold the number one position, in terms of market share for DSLR cameras and with the launch of such evolutionary products, we foresee our numbers to grow and achieve more than 50% in the DSLR segment by the end of this year.”
The newly-launched product is equipped with a GPS receiver and provides a Wi-Fi and NFC connectivity for users to transfer images and videos from the camera to the smart devices and upload them onto the Canon Image Gateway, social media platforms and cloud storage.
The battery life of the EOS 6D Mark II can be extended to accommodate longer shooting hours with the optional battery grip (BG-E21) which houses 2 pieces of LP-E6N batteries.
Eddie Udagawa, Vice-President of Consumer Imaging and Information Centre, Canon India, said, “The EOS 6D Mark II is a versatile full-frame camera that reflects the ‘Sense of Genius’, striking a perfect balance between compact design and superior performance offering an excellent value to the photo enthusiasts and professionals. The EOS 6D Mark II is a camera that will excel in a vast variety of genres.
