I think the Canon EOS R6 is very usable at this high-ISO level.

CR2 PANORAMA STITCHER ISO
I feel it is very safe to use the cRAW file format when shooting important events like weddings, even with extreme post-processing.Īnother thing I noticed while looking at the images is the quality of the ISO 12,800 image. I think it is safe to say cRAW shows a negligible decrease in quality. Perhaps a closer look will show some difference, especially if something like a color checker is photographed.īut I found this experiment a more realistic comparison, resembling a real-life situation. The raw images are on the left, the cRAW images are on the right.įirst are the ISO 100 images with and without the crop.īy conducting this experiment, I have found cRAW to have little to no decrease in quality, despite the smaller file size. I don’t want to bother you with the whole series thus, I chose to compare only the ISO 100 and ISO 1,600 images next to each other. I decided to shoot a series of images ranging from ISO 100 up to ISO 102,400. The first test was a simple comparison with the correct exposure, both in raw and cRAW. It would be great if Canon allowed saving a raw to one card and cRAW for backup to the other one. You have to choose one or the other, which is a pity.

I noticed Canon doesn’t allow you to save a raw file on one memory card and a cRAW on another.
CR2 PANORAMA STITCHER MANUAL
I used the manual exposure setting and manual focus, although the latter is of lesser importance for this test. I used the Canon EOS R6 with the RF 24-105mm f/4L IS lens placed on a sturdy tripod. There were no additional lights, just the natural window lights. In order to have a highlight in the setup, I placed a LED underneath one oak leaf. I thought it would be a nice subject for this test. I not only wanted to see if there was a difference between ISO levels, but also by correcting underexposure, overexposure, and with extreme post-processing.įor this test, I went outside and gathered some autumn leaves. The Canon EOS R6 has the same file menu page.Īlthough I made a comparison between the raw and cRAW file with the Canon EOS M50, I thought it would be interesting to do the test a bit more thoroughly. You can choose between raw and cRAW if you like.
