Why you want the Canon EOS R6 Mark II in your arsenal

The is a top choice for photographers and videographers alike because of its 24.2-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor, which delivers impressive image quality with incredible detail and dynamic range.

Recommended Videos

If you’re into action shots, you’ll love its high-speed continuous shooting capabilities. It has 12 fps using the mechanical shutter and 40 fps with the electronic shutter. If that sounds like jibber jabber to you, beginners, it means you can capture fast-moving subjects easily. This camera’s RAW burst mode also supports up to 30 fps with pre-shooting. You’ll appreciate that for those critical moments that happen in a split second. You grab all the shots you need and curate your faves later.

Canon’s autofocus is also another game changer. The Dual Pixel CMOS AF II covers up to 100% of the frame with 1,053 AF zones. This camera can automatically detect and track people, animals, and even vehicles if that’s your market. Taking pics of inanimate objects? This camera also recognizes those just the same with or without your steady grip.

What reviewers are saying

Okay, okay, we know—before you buy anything, you head straight for the reviews to see if buyers don’t regret their purchase.

Lucky for Canon (and you), reviewers are raving about this camera’s image quality, speed, and autofocus performance. Experts love its capabilities, especially for both photos and 4K video, but non-pros can enjoy it, too. It’s fairly user-friendly, especially with the Canon app, and even beginners can make the most of it with a bit of practice.

Yellowstone National Park is open year-round, but several closures in the wintertime can impact your visit. This year, Yellowstone will implement its winterizing procedures on October 31st, so get in your fall visit while you still can.
Here's everything you need to know about Yellowstone's upcoming winter closures.

Starting November 1, the West, South, and East entrances and most park roads will close to regular vehicles as park officials prepare them for snowmobile and snowcoach season. The road from Tower Fall to Canyon Village (Dunraven Pass) will remain open through October 31, weather permitting. Not every road will close, though. One road that will remain open is the route between the North Entrance (Gardiner, Montana) and the Northeast Entrance (Cooke City/Silver Gate, Montana), which passes through Mammoth Hot Springs, Tower Junction, and Lamar Valley.

Finally: Official details on the next-gen, Cybertruck-inspired CyberTrailer

A concept rendering of Living Vehicle's CyberTrailer being towed by a Tesla Cybertruck through the desert.

Few pieces of technology have polarized our modern society like the Tesla Cybertruck. But, in a clever "hold my beer" marketing move, Living Vehicle announced production for what's sure to be just as polarizing: Its all-new Cybertruck-inspired CyberTrailer. We first covered the news in May of this year, but the company just confirmed official details for its 2025 production model. If, like us, you're a fan of luxury living and renewable energy, especially when it comes to RVs and travel trailers, it's hard not to admit that this rig looks promising.
Everything we know about Living Vehicle's 2025 CyberTrailer

From the outside, the inspiration for the new CyberTrailer is unabashedly Cybertruck. With an asymmetrical, angular profile, wide stretches of naked sheet metal, and a cold, monochrome color scheme, it's like a study in neo-Brutalist vehicle design. In the case of the CyberTrailer, this is entirely purposeful. It's a design that allows for extreme travel trailer aerodynamics (a drag coefficient of just 0.39 at 55 mph, to be exact) and a foundation for installing a sheet-load of solar panels across every available square inch of the exterior.
