Key Features
A Stacked Sensor-Processor Combo
The R5 Mark II's new sensor maintains the high resolution of its predecessor while introducing a stacked, back-illuminated design that makes room for Canon's latest image processor, the DIGIC Accelerator. Operating alongside the stalwart DIGIC X, the camera combines the raw image data with high-volume, deep-learning datasets to produce gains in subject tracking and recognition, pre-continuous capture, blackout-free shooting, video resolution, maximum recording time, and more - making the R5 Mark II a powerful and comprehensive professional creator's toolkit.
Autofocus and Deep Learning
The improved processing speeds benefit the EOS R series' already-robust autofocus, incorporating deep learning datasets in its Dual Pixel Intelligence AF to produce advancements in subject recognition and tracking while also improving on the Eye Control Focus feature introduced in the EOS R3.
Eye Control Focus
Reintroduced in the EOS R3, Eye Control AF allows shooters to use their eye to initiate where the focus point is simply by looking through the electronic viewfinder. The R5 Mark II boasts newly developed camera optics and a revised line-of-sight detection algorithm to nearly double the detection frame rate. The camera integrates Eye Control Focus with its improved subject tracking and recognition algorithms to keep the sighted subject in sharp focus.
Electronic Shutter
Chief among the benefits of the new sensor-processor combination is the ability to shoot high-quality, high-resolution images at blazing speed, unlocking mural-sized moments of athletic brilliance, breaking news, or even history. The R5 Mark II has the power to record the ephemeral and commit it to memory on the biggest scale and in astounding detail.
Pre-Continuous Shooting
Newly available in the EOS R5 Mark II is the ability to bank up to 15 shots of pre-continuous shooting by half-depressing the shutter button before firing. When the shutter button is fully pressed, the previous half-second of images are written to the memory card, allowing users to "go back in time" to recover a decisive moment they might have missed.
Noise Reduction and In-Camera Upscaling
First and foremost, the R5 Mark II is a camera built for image-makers looking to maximise quality and flexibility. As such, the broad native ISO 100-51200 range suits working in a variety of lighting conditions and the DIGIC Accelerator enables the use of Neural Network Noise Reduction for cleaner images, especially at higher sensitivities.
This same processing power also enables the creation of even higher resolution stills-up to 179MP-via In-Camera Upscaling. This deep learning-based tool doubles the number of pixels horizontally and vertically to produce a larger, more detailed image with maintained sharpness and clarity.
Coordinated Control Image Stabilisation
A lightweight, compact build encourages users to hand-wield the camera, and here as elsewhere the R5 Mark II's new innards yield performance gains. Coordinated control helps achieve the optimum hand-shake correction effects, benefiting handheld shooting in low-light conditions and reducing shake when recording videos. The five-axis in-body image stabiliser (IBIS) corrects up to 8.5 stops of unwanted camera shake in the center of the frame and 7.5 at the edges when used in conjunction with compatible. Additionally, Movie Digital IS uses the optical and sensor-shift stabilisation methods along with digital IS to help acquire steadier footage while moving.
A Cinema EOS-Integrated 8K Powerhouse
The R5 Mark II inherits many of innovations that made its other relative, the R5 C, a favorite among combination video-stills shooters, and carries over much of its Cinema EOS cousin's features and workflow. Like its predecessors, the 45MP full-frame sensor enables impressively high-resolution DCI 8K raw video recording internally, now up to 60 fps, along with 4K SRAW also at the full sensor width.
