Canon EOS M6 Mark II is a powerful mirrorless camera, even better than its DSLR sister 90D.

14FPS continuous shot speed, 30 FPS 18MP electronic shot speed with pre-capture function. Very fast focus speed in continuous shot and single shot mode which is better than 90D.

But its electronic shutter is limited to single shot in 32MP. 14FPS mechanic shutter have some blur problems. Battery life is not very good, and its body is too small.

I bought it to connect with my canon EF 300mm f2.8 IS USM. So I have to bought a cage to make it more comfortable,and two more batteries. Canon 328 is very fast in this body, I really like this combo.

Yup, good to have extra batteries.  I usually get about 2 hours of shooting per battery.

When I have a tele mounted, I keep the sleep timer very short.  In fact, the lens’ IS shuts off entirely after 8 seconds.  I half-press the shutter to wake as I’m bringing the camera up to shoot.

One caution with the cage (or any other device that gets screwed into the tripod socket), is don’t over-tighten the mounting screw, as the bottom plate could crack (if too much force is applied).

Also be sure to check out the tips and tricks thread...
