This is an entry level FF. Why would Canon load it up with goodies that the higher end bodies have?
At least you got a flippy screen.

Considering that my iphone 6s from 2015 does it no-problem... i would say no.

And just what size is the sensor on the 6s? I bet it doesn't take much processing power to run 4K from a piddly little sensor from a smartphone. It's a whole 'nuther story when dealing with the massive amounts of data produced by a FF sensor every second.
Same argument as why smaller sensors can do faster FPS burst.
However, in this day and age I would expect the processing power issue to have been licked. So, this does seem a little disappointing it doesn't have 4K of some sort.

Besisika said:Someone already listed good reasons why 4K is the key to video and I am glad he put at the top of the list the most important one, which is cropping in post, in other words zooming in post.
The approach in videography is "shoot for the edit", something that we photographers do not understand, we desperately want to get it right in camera. 4K gives you that possibility, and yet you remove it from your best camera for the job.
Frodo said:I have a 6D (and before that a 5DII and 5D).
What I miss most on the 6D is focusing outside the centre point and the crippled auto-ISO.
What I like is image quality, relatively small size and light weight, plus GPS.
I don't need 4K video.
Provided this camera has GPS, better focusing and better auto-ISO, I'd consider an upgrade.
In terms of sensor resolution, I have some very nice 36 x 12 inch prints from my 12 MP 5D mark I, some of which have been sold.
26MP is fine, provided IQ is good.
Besisika said:You lost already half of buyers because your 6D II doesn't do 4K.
Your son want to enter a PHOTO competition and refuses loan of a camera because it doesn't have 4K What an idiot. Perhaps he ought to learn what a photo is.Besisika said:Your son wants to enter photography and you want to give to him your 6D - he says no because he wants 4K.
