Canon R6 I R6 MK1 eye detection test...

[Ferenc MÓGOR]

Had some free time on my hand lately and did some tests with my R6 MK1 to see how good "subject detection" works. Not that I ever had any doubt about a Canon camera in this category, but it was nice to see that it really performs well.

For the sake of easiness, I downloaded some random pictures that contain both "people" and different "animals" on the same picture (dog, monkey, bird). The first three shots were taken with camera set to "people" while the remaining three were shot with camera set to "animals".

Please look out for the little red square on the eyes that shows the focus point on each version of eye detection settings. The camera never missed when detecting the eyes of the subjects in accordance with the AF settings. Thank you Canon!!

Please share your thoughts and experiences or just enjoy!

I have the R5 and the R6 Mark II. I think the R6 MK II AF is amazing! I really get torn between the two cameras. I like them both for different reasons. I was going to get rid of one, but I just can't part with either one.

I’ve done the same test with my R6.2 and it’s wild how good that eye detection is.
