The EOS R8 Mark II is Canon’s lightest full-frame camera with stabilization
That feature was one of the most notable omissions from the original R8 that launched in 2023 as a smaller, cheaper, and more accessible alternative to the Canon R6 Mark II for photographers wanting a larger full-frame shooter. The new R8 Mark II still exclusively uses an electronic shutter instead of an additional mechanical one, with high-speed captures maxing out at 40fps again. The R8 Mark II also features Canon’s Dual Pixel CMOS AF II system with what the company describes as “more tenacious tracking” than what the R8 offered.
