It has been been over 2 YEARS since I switched to the R6 and totally shifted to mirrorless!!
The amount of photographers who have switched over because of our youtube series on the R6 is mind-blowing and we get SO many questions about this camera!!
I get it, it’s a BIG shift!! It reminds me of the shift from the Canon Mark III to the Canon Mark IV! Some photographers are immediately in love while it takes others some time to get used to this new system.
So what kind of problems have people been asking about?! Here are some of the questions that I’m answering :
Are low megapixels an issue with the R6?
This has not been an issue for me! I have blown up canvases for clients and haven’t had any issues.. But if you’re making an image into a billboard, this might be something to consider!
Why are my R6 images so noisy?
I see this question in KJ Education, and it’s typically when the photographer has zoomed in to 800% to show the noise that they’re talking about! No one is blowing up an image to print it that big for a family print, and this is normal with most cameras!
Why are my RAW images SO flat?
I have heard several people say this and I wish I had the answer for you!! I have not experienced this but I want you to submit your RAW files HERE so that I can see what is different and then I’ll make another video and let you know what I’ve found!!
Biggest change when moving from 5DMKIV to R6?
Hands down- focus! My approach to focus has changed completely, no more focusing and recomposing.
