In the world of event, wedding, and wildlife creation, the perfect moment is a fleeting whisper—a subtle expression, the peak of an action, a bird taking flight. Capturing that whisper requires a tool built for incredible speed and intelligence. The Canon EOS R6 Mark II is that tool. It is a masterfully balanced hybrid camera that takes the successful formula of its predecessor and amplifies its performance in every way, creating the ultimate all-around workhorse. At Unicorn Films, we provide this blend of speed and versatility for rent to the dynamic creators of Delhi-NCR who do it all.
The R6 Mark II is built around a new 24.2-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor. This resolution is the sweet spot for most professional work, delivering beautifully detailed images with excellent low-light performance and rich Canon color, all while producing file sizes that are efficient for a fast-paced workflow. This sensor, driven by the powerful DIGIC X processor, is the foundation for the camera’s most breathtaking feature: its speed.
This camera is one of the fastest in its class, designed to ensure you never miss the shot.
Harnessing this speed is a deeply intelligent autofocus system inherited from Canon’s flagship EOS R3. The Dual Pixel CMOS AF II system uses deep learning AI to not just find, but to identify and track subjects with incredible tenacity.
The R6 Mark II is an equally impressive video powerhouse, addressing all the needs of the modern hybrid shooter. The most significant upgrade is its ability to record stunning, uncropped 4K UHD video at up to 60p. This footage is oversampled from the sensor’s 6K readout, resulting in incredibly sharp, detailed, and clean video. For filmmakers seeking maximum post-production flexibility, the camera can output 6K ProRes RAW to a compatible external recorder, and includes Canon Log 3 to capture the widest possible dynamic range. With significantly improved thermal management, you can record with confidence for longer durations, a crucial feature for interviews and events.
All this technology is housed in a body that feels like a classic Canon, with intuitive ergonomics and robust build quality. A powerful 5-axis In-Body Image Stabilizer (IBIS) provides up to 8 stops of shake correction with coordinated lenses, enabling sharp handheld shots at impossibly slow shutter speeds and delivering smooth, stable video. With dual high-speed UHS-II SD card slots for reliable backup, the R6 Mark II is a complete, trustworthy package. Renting it from Unicorn Films means equipping yourself with a camera that is fast enough for any challenge and versatile enough for any creative vision.

This incredible speed allows you to capture dozens of frames during a fleeting moment, ensuring you get the perfect shot with peak action or the ideal expression. It's a massive advantage for sports, wildlife, and event photography.
The improvement is significant. The R6 Mark II can record uncropped 4K video at up to 60p (the original had a crop at 60p), and it uses the full 6K width of the sensor for a sharper image. It also has much better thermal performance, allowing for longer recording times without overheating.
This is a feature where the camera starts continuously buffering images when you half-press the shutter. When you fully press down, it saves the images from up to 0.5 seconds before you pressed it, effectively letting you "go back in time" to capture a moment you thought you missed.
Yes, absolutely. With a Canon EF-to-RF mount adapter, which we can provide with your rental from Unicorn Films, your existing EF lenses will work perfectly, with full support for autofocus and image stabilization.
The R6 Mark II is built for speed and efficient workflow with its 24.2MP sensor and 40fps burst rate. The R5 Mark II is built for ultimate resolution with its 45MP sensor and 8K video. The R6 Mark II is often the better choice for event and sports work where speed and smaller file sizes are more important than maximum resolution.
