Still Shooting Operation Improvements # Topic EOS R5 EOS R EOS R6 Remarks 27 Image Sensor 45.0 Megapixels 30.3 Megapixels 20.1 Megapixels DIGIC X enables faster and larger processing of data in-comparison to the DIGIC 8 image processor. DIGIC X is responsible for many of Image Processor 28 the advances in EOS R5 and EOS R6 such as Autofocus performance, In-Body Image Stabilizer, and overall Image Processing. Due to the DIGIC X image processor • 100-40000 Manual ISO Range • 100-51200 • 100-102400 higher ISO setting are possible • (EXP 51200) 29 (Default/EXP) • (EXP 102400) • (EXP 204800) while rendering lower high ISO • (EXP 102400) noise.
