Canon M6 MII Sports Photography Detailed Analysis
Fast Continuous Shooting: 14.0fps
In the world of sports photography, faster is always better.
Fast Max shutter speed: 1/4000s
Canon M6 MII's 1/4000s shutter speed is fast enough to freeze any almost all sports action and is also helpful when you use a fast lens at largest aperture under bright sunlight.
143 Focus Points
In sports photography , you keep continuous autofocus (AFC) mode on for tracking the subject and more focus means better tracking.
Good Low Light ISO
A good high ISO performance is very important in sports photography in order to have a fast shutter speed.
Wireless Connection
It may not be used by everyone but pro sports photographers use Wi-fi to transfer files simultaneously without having to wait to change the memory card.
Anti Flicker feature
Many sporting events involve flickering lights that cause unwanted effects on the photos. Anti flicker feature reduces this effect, although generally reduces the maximum continuous shooting speed of the cameras.
Average Ergonomics&Handling
although not as good as a DSLR body, Canon M6 MII is good enough for most conditions.
Environmental Sealings
Most outdoor sports games are held in all-weather, so your camera has to be ready for difficult conditions such as rain and snow. Exposure to dust and water splashes are also very common in sports.
No Image Stabilization
Due to the lack of sensor based Image stabilization, Canon M6 MII users have to rely on lenses with optical IS in order to maximize the sharpness of their sports photography photos. Currently there are native Canon EF-M mount lenses with Image Stabilization for Canon M6 MII.
