Pick the Canon EOS R5 Mark II if you need 8K 60 RAW video and are willing to pay the premium for the latest model. The Canon EOS R5 stays the better choice if budget is a priority, as it delivers nearly identical stills performance and 8K 30 RAW video at a significantly lower price. Choose the R5 Mark II only if the extra video frame rate justifies the 1,380 EUR difference for your workflow.
