Pitched by the brand as the ideal next-step from their APS-C models, the 6D Mark II overhauls the specifications of its 2012 forebear with a host of additions including the first touch and tilt display found on a Canon full-frame.

This enthusiast-aimed camera is fitted with a 26.2MP CMOS sensor, a DIGIC 7 processor and a 45-point all-cross-type autofocus system.

While the lack of 4K video recording may surprise some, its feature set and price point are unlikely to disappoint those who consider themselves predominately stills shooters, but who were put off by the 5D Mark IV’s higher price tag.
