Description — Canon EOS R5 Mark II
The Canon EOS R5 Mark II is a full-frame mirrorless camera with a 45MP sensor processed by a DIGIC X + DIGIC Accelerator dual-chip system. It shoots stills at a maximum resolution of 8192x5464 pixels and bursts at up to 30fps, making it equally capable in deliberate studio work and fast-action environments. The autofocus system uses 1053 AF points and combines Dual Pixel AF, Eye Detection AF, and AI-based subject tracking for reliable subject acquisition.
Video capabilities extend to 8K at up to 60fps, with additional frame rate options including 120fps, all recorded in 10-bit with color profile options including Canon Log 2, Canon Log 3, and HDR PQ. The 5-axis in-body stabilization and digital IS option support handheld shooting across both modes. Monitoring is handled by a 5.76 million dot OLED EVF at 120Hz and a 3.2-inch vari-angle touchscreen at 2.1 million dots.
The weather-sealed magnesium alloy body measures 138.5 x 97.5 x 88.0mm and weighs 738g, with dual storage slots for CFexpress Type B and SDXC cards and a full connectivity suite including Full HDMI, USB-C, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and 3.5mm headphone and microphone jacks.
