Buying decision

Should you buy it?

Buy the EOS R6 Mark III if you shoot stills and video equally: reviewers praised its handling, 32.5MP sensor, 40fps RAW and JPEG bursts with pre-capture, large viewfinder, CFexpress Type B support and internal 7K 60p RAW and 7K open-gate video. It launched at $2,799 for the body. Skip it for long video takes, because there's no active cooling and reviewers saw overheating. Third-party autofocus lens support is limited, and battery life is so-so.
