Canon has announced the new EOS R6 Mark III. The camera has received some interesting upgrades. The RF 45mm f/1.2 STM has also been announced.
The EOS R6 Mark III has a 32.5-megapixel sensor that can shoot up to 40 frames per second. The buffer has been enlarged, allowing 150 Raw files to be captured in a single burst.
To achieve this speed, the EOS R6 Mark III now has a CF Express Type B and a UHS-II SD card slot, just like the R5 models. The camera can make pre-continuous captures of up to 20 frames before the shutter button is pressed.
The video functions of the EOS R6 Mark III have been greatly expanded with 7K Raw video and Open Gate functionality. A waveform monitor and proxies are available. The camera has a full-size HDMI and four-channel audio.
Canon RF 45mm f/1.2 STM
Alongside the camera, Canon has announced the RF 45mm f/1.2 STM. The lens has a wide aperture for a shallow depth of field and use in low-light conditions.
The lens is small and compact. Its weight of 350 grams and STM autofocus make it ideal for photography and video. The minimum focusing distance is 45 centimetres and the lens supports focus breathing correction.
The Canon EOS R6 Mark III will be available from the end of November at a recommended retail price of 2,949 euros. The RF 45mm f/1.2 STM lens will also be available then, at a recommended retail price of 509 euros.
