Canon EOS R6 Mark III Hybrid Camera Is A Beast With 7K RAW Video & 40 FPS Burst

The lines between professional photography and cinematic video have never been more blurred with Canon's new EOS R6 Mark III that targets hybrid creators. Announced today, this mirrorless body transforms the popular R6 series into quite a powerhouse, delivering specifications that were once exclusive to high-end cinema cameras.

Central to the upgrade is a 32.5-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor, a jump from its predecessor's 24MP. However, the sensor is integral to the camera’s most headline-grabbing feature, which is its video capability: the Mark III can record 7K RAW Light video internally at up to 60 fps, or capture full-sensor 7K/30p Open Gate footage, giving filmmakers flexibility in post-production stabilization and vertical cropping for social media. (The camera can also output via HDMI to an external recorder at 7K/30p ProRes Raw.)

Of course, resolution without speed is kind of pointless ...
