Announcing the EOS R5 Mark II, a new full-frame mirrorless camera that outperforms the EOS R5, with groundbreaking features like the high-performance new 45-megapixel back-illuminated (BSI) stacked CMOS sensor and Accelerated Capture image processor system. Additionally, it includes enhancements such as Eye Control AF and Cinema EOS features, bringing Canon’s esteemed “5 series” from the EOS system into the next generation.

A Power-packed New Core for Unprecedented Performance
The new 45-megapixel back-illuminated (BSI) stacked CMOS sensor leads the host of feature upgrades. The new Accelerated Capture System, consisting of the all-new DIGIC Accelerator and the DIGIC X image processor, can process high volumes of data at unprecedented speeds. Together, the two pave the way for powerful new features and enable resource-intensive processing that sets new standards for AF performance.

Dual Pixel Intelligent AF for Smarter Subject Detection and Tracking
Like the EOS R1, the EOS R5 Mark II is also equipped with the Dual Pixel Intelligent AF system, which leverages the Accelerated Capture system and deep learning. This system greatly improves subject tracking and detection during video and stills shooting. It is highly accurate and capable of tracking the subject even for scenes that were challenging for the EOS R3, like when subjects cross each other and block the main subject.

Videographers and photographers shooting events and concerts will benefit from the Register People Priority function, as it prioritises a preregistered person for subject detection and tracking even when they are in a crowd and have their face turned sideways. The new Action Priority AF mode will automatically switch the focus point to subjects that are shooting, passing, or heading, helping sports photographers capture decisive moments during dynamic, fast-paced sports such as soccer, basketball, and volleyball.

Intuitive and Highly Responsive AF Control
For the first time ever on a “5 series” camera, Eye Control AF allows user to shift the AF frame by simply looking at their new subject to focus on. Updated optics and an improved line-of-sight detection algorithm have doubled the detection frame rate as compared to the EOS R3, thus allowing faster, steadier eye movement detection.

Both photographers and videographers can also store and recall a specific focus position by utilising the focus preset function, which was only previously available on super telephoto lenses. They can register and recall up to six different AF-related settings, which allows for a quicker response to different situations.

Cinema Industry Standards for Next Level Video Production
In addition to the creative flexibility offered by its internal 8K DCI 60p RAW video recording support, the camera also provides ample industry-standard recording modes and options. Several professional production-oriented Cinema EOS system features were also included for professional filmmaking and video production needs.

The new 4K DCI 60p SRAW recording option uses the camera’s full horizontal angle of view and provides a less resource-intensive option for projects requiring RAW video’s post-production latitude. Users can simultaneously record smaller 2K, a newly included function or Full HD proxy video files to the camera’s SD card slot and 8K or 4K main files to the CFexpress Type B slot. This allows users to edit footage more efficiently. The EOS R5 Mark II possesses the ability to create spectacular 4K videos with oversampled 8K sensor output and 2K/FHD videos from oversampled 4K. In addition, the camera showcases beautiful slow-motion scenes in 4K quality (up to 5x slower) or in Full HD (up to 10x slower) with the 4K 120p or Full HD 240p.

Elevate Your Visual Storytelling
Both the EOS R1 and EOS R5 Mark II are the first EOS system cameras to offer 10-bit Canon Log 2, which provides more vivid colour reproduction. Favoured by many filmmakers for its wider dynamic range (16+ stops) and better preservation of shadow detail, Canon Log 2 expands the possibilities of post-production to meet your boundless artistic visions.

Besides the existing Picture Style colour profiles, the EOS R5 Mark II is also equipped with the Cinema EOS system’s Custom Pictures. The latter allows LUTs (lookup tables), including custom 3D LUTs for Cinema EOS to be applied in-camera even when recording in Canon Log 2/Log 3, or HDR formats so users can better visualise the output video while shooting.

Easy integration with Cinema EOS
The EOS R5 Mark II uses the new XF-AVC S/XF-HEVC S file system, which has similar specifications as the Cinema EOS file system. This system enables workflows that are incompatible with the conventional MP4 format and streamlines the multi-camera projects editing process where Cinema EOS cameras are utilised.

Cinema EOS tools that provide detailed exposure information, such as the waveform monitor, false colours, and zebra display, have also been incorporated. Users can fine-tune exposure more accurately on set and improve efficiency on multiple camera shoots where exposures must be matched.

Seize the moment
The pre-recording feature, inherited from Cinema EOS cameras, will benefit users tasked to capture defining moments. This feature captures a scene up to 5 seconds before recording starts, and can be controlled remotely via the Camera Connect mobile app. There is no need to record continuously, which means smaller file sizes, effectively reducing the time users spend reviewing their footage.

Other significant video features:

• Reduced rolling shutter distortion: The new BSI stacked sensor’s faster readout reduces rolling shutter distortion by approximately 40% compared to the EOS R5. This provides seamless action footage and fast camera movement without wobbly artifacts.
• Apple ProRes RAW external recording up to 8K 30p: This feature is supported through an HDMI Type-A output terminal. Users can simultaneously record 2K DCI proxy files to the CFexpress card.
• Linear PCM 24-bit 4-channel input support: This provides high-quality audio and flexibility for multi-microphone setups that are suitable for interviews and simultaneous ambient noise recording.
• Heat dissipating structure: The camera adopts a structure that dissipates heat buildup, allowing reliable recording even at the highest resolutions.
• Optional cooling fan for longer high-resolution recording: A cooling fan, K510 (sold separately) extends 8K recording times, allowing up to 120 or more minutes of 8K 30p video to be recorded. It also enables limitless 4K 60p video recording with no overheating restrictions.
• Support for the latest wireless/wired communication protocols (Wi-Fi 6/6E and 2.5G Base-T wired LAN): These allow high-speed transmission of large photo and video files to a PC or FTP/FTPS/SFTP server, which is suitable for news reporting and editorial work especially with time constraints.

In-Camera Image Enhancements
The EOS R5 Mark II improves workflow efficiency and image quality through in-camera noise reduction and image upscaling that uses deep learning technology.

Neural Network Noise Reduction reduces the noise in high-ISO RAW images while retaining detail and resolution.

In-camera Upscaling function that quadruples the number of pixels in the image, increasing the resolution to up to 179 megapixels with minimal impact on image quality.

Combine both to generate cleaner, high-quality extreme crops that retain stunning clarity and detail, further empowering users to unleash their creativity.

Other significant still image features:

• Blurred/Out-of-focus image detection: This function is applicable to JPEG and HEIF images shot with the electronic shutter. It detects and rates images with faces that are blurred or out of focus. Users will also find it easier to choose the best shots from the many captured via improved high-speed continuous shooting performance with the electronic shutter.
• Dual Shooting: Users can simultaneously record 16:9, approx. 33.2-megapixel JPEG still images while recording Full HD 30p videos. This improves work efficiency for users who require still photos and videos of the same event when time is limited.

Delightful and reliable to shoot with
Designed to perform reliably on demanding shoots, the EOS R5 Mark II is built like the EOS R5, with similar dust- and drip-resistant weather sealing to withstand challenging weather conditions. For added protection, users may consider pairing it with the new Shoe Cover ER-SC3. The Rain Cover ERC-R5S and Rain Cover ERC-R5L will also come in useful for users shooting with the EOS R5 Mark II under rainy conditions for a prolonged period. The blackout-free EVF is twice as bright as the EOS R5’s and is equipped with superior anti-fog performance, which provides a brighter, clearer view of the scene even in unpredictable weather conditions. The Eyecup ER-KE can be added to provide a better EVF experience by blocking out stray lights to improve visibility and achieve more precise Eye Control AF.

The EOS R5 Mark II features a 5-axis In-Body IS (Image Stabilizer), with a newly designed mechanism and improved algorithms that increase its effectiveness when compared to the EOS R3. When shooting with a compatible RF lens with Optical Image Stabilizer, users can expect up to 8.5 stops’ equivalent image stabilisation^[1] so handheld images where tripods are not available will look even better up close.

To meet increased power requirements, the EOS R5 Mark II is powered by a new battery, Battery Pack LP-E6P, which has a higher current discharge but keeps the same form as other LP-E6 series batteries and can be charged with the LC-E6 charger. The USB Power Adapter PD-E2 (sold separately), can also charge the battery inside the camera and supplies more power than the USB Power Adapter PD-E1.

The USB Power Adapter PD-E2 can be combined with the DC Coupler DR-E6P, a new DC coupler for LP-E6 series-type batteries, to supply power directly to the camera during long shoots such as events or time-lapse recording. For enhanced operability such as vertical shooting support, users can combine the EOS R5 Mark II with:

• Battery Grip Battery Grip BG-R20: A battery grip with weight balance, buttons, and multi-controller position optimised for vertical shooting. It is compatible with the EOS R5/ R6 Mark II/ R6.
• Battery Grip Battery Grip BG-R20EP: A battery grip with the same features as Battery Grip BG-R20, with an additional 2.5G Base-T Ethernet port to support high-speed wired communication. This meets the needs of professional users who require wired network compatibility and better support for vertical shooting.
