Canon R5 Mark II R5 Mark II Black 2024
A new stacked 45MP sensor and dedicated DIGIC Accelerator chip enable 30fps RAW bursts with minimal rolling shutter and pre-capture that records a half-second before you fully press the shutter. Eye Control AF lets you simply look at your subject to position the focus point, while 8.5-stop IBIS and internal 8K RAW video solidify its hybrid workflow credentials. This body is best for sports photographers and event shooters who need to instantly lock focus in unpredictable, fast-paced scenarios.
