The Canon R6 is shipping this week and I know everyone wants to see the amazing images!! Post up your favorite images. If you can, post up your settings and what lens you are using.
I am fairly sure I'm going to end up with one of these. Going to wait for the price to drop about $500-700, but will end up with one eventually. Looking forward to the pics!

I am looking at the R6 or the R as a replacement for the 6D that has served us in the household quite well for a number of years. I too will wait for the inevitable price drop if I go with the R6 which I think will be under $2k at some point in around a year or less. I like the resolution bump the R provides but the R6 has a lot of nice improvements and features over it. The R5 is a great camera but paying close to $4k for what is mostly a stills camera is too much for what my wife and I shoot. I would rather have the R or R6 and spend the rest on some glass. If the R gets down to $1,200-$1,400 it will be hard to not go with it. Canon has made it a very decent camera with the firmware updates. I will rent each of them before making a decision. One thing I am pleased with is that Canon has very likely kept us in the fold unless something incredible comes to market before we make a purchase.

Well, I'm sort of 25% in the fold. I shoot Sony as my main system, but I have an RP and a few lenses as a second system. I see replacing the RP with the R6 in 6 months to a year, and if I can snag the R6 on Greentoe or get a good used copy for $1700-1800, I'll jump on it. I shoot an A7R IV as my main body.

I upgraded from the 6DII to the R and the R is night and day better. The AF system and eye AF is just perfect. It isn't the fastest for sports, but for portraits it is an awesome camera. Though with my R6 now paid for I will be selling my gripped R on the S&S shortly.
Haven't gotten to really test it out and push its limits. But, first impression, I'm very happy I upgraded, so far, so good. When that eye AF locked on to my chickens eye at 1.4 (who is constantly moving) my mind was blown. Again, still want to get it out and really push it which I will next week in Denali. I didn't touch these in light room. These are straight out of camera via WiFi connection to my phone
I made a few shots at 1/160 handheld this morning with 1.4x , seems OK with or without EFCS .
I will check more precisely later if some difference of sharpness .
Ok this is my first post of images so hope it works.
Shot with the R6 and 50mm 1.2 (Both shot at 1.2). Both new to me. I'm a Nikon user so this is different for me. Have never ever preordered a camera before...JPG only no RAW, edited in LR for a small amount of brightness and to take out a couple of "blemishes". After all, he is a Rockstar!

There's an EXIF check box next the the spot where you select your file.
Thanks Tom, but I'm submitting the url from another site. But I just realized I should have removed it in LR when I exported it. I'll get there, I'm just so excited!
I'll get there, I'm just so excited!
