Take the sensor, processor and autofocus from the R6 Mark II, put them in a much smaller and cheaper body, and leave out the expensive extras. It launched in early 2023 at $1,499 for the body, about $1,000 less than the R6 II, and weighs about 461 grams with battery and card.</p> <p>That makes it one of the cheapest ways into modern full-frame, and one of the lightest.</p>
