The DIGIC 7 Image Processor accelerates and facilitates all aspects of the EOS 6D Mark II camera's operation, enhancing image capture with improved resolution, detail and noise reduction. It increases subject tracking speed and accuracy in Live View AF, helping to maintain focus on the subject and enables a broad range of ISO settings, from 100–40000 (expandable to L: 50 and H2: 102400), to deliver sharp and highly detailed results. Powerful all around, the DIGIC 7 Image Processor helps the EOS 6D Mark II capture sharp, striking and lifelike photos and movies with incredible speed.

To help ensure accurate and consistent image capture, the EOS 6D Mark II camera offers a number of features to correct lens characteristics, subject and lighting conditions. Advanced optical lens correction can counter lens aberrations such as distortion and diffraction, delivering accurate high-resolution results automatically. The EOS 6D Mark II also has a new Picture Style setting that controls strength, fineness and threshold for sharp and accurate recording of fine detail, plus a new White Priority WB setting that compensates for the prevailing color cast, helping white details reproduce accurately.

The EOS 6D Mark II camera has a sophisticated AF system engineered for sharp, accurate AF with reliable performance no matter the subject. It has a 45-point all cross-type AF system that's complemented by numerous features designed to achieve and track focus for still photography and videos.

For next-level AF operation, the EOS 6D Mark II camera has a wide-area, 45-point all cross-type AF system. It has low luminance performance to EV -3 which makes it excellent in dim light, and is compatible with an array of EF lenses (lenses with maximum apertures of f/8 or smaller, and some lenses with extenders attached may operate at a maximum of 27 points). The EOS 6D Mark II also features 4 types of AF area selection modes useful for a number of different AF situations. These include user-selectable Single-point AF; Zone AF, where users can select from one of 9 predefined AF zones; Large Zone AF, where one of three zones can be selected; and 45-point AF auto selection, where the camera detects the AF point automatically.

The EOS 6D Mark II camera is equipped with AI Servo AF II, which is optimized for use with the camera's 45-point AF system. The inclusion of a new metering sensor adds color detection, which references subject color information during Zone AF, Large Zone AF and Automatic AF Selection, for significant improvements in subject tracking even in dim light or highly reflective areas. A number of fine-tuning settings, available in the camera's menu, enable further refinement of focus parameters for advanced operation.

Among the advanced electronics onboard the EOS 6D Mark II camera, a fine-tuned RGB+IR metering sensor not only helps ensure accurate exposure, but also uses Color Tracking to detect skin tone and help provide precise AF. This is particularly useful when establishing focus for portraits in situations where other AF systems may falter. When a skin tone is detected, AI Servo AF II starts on skin-toned points, then tracks the subject based on the original AF point's color information, maintaining focus on the person even when they're in motion.

Especially helpful when shooting under fluorescent lights, the EOS 6D Mark II camera's anti-flicker function detects the frequency and phase of a light source's flicker and captures images near the point of peak brightness when the subject is most likely to be properly illuminated.

Canon's high-speed Dual Pixel CMOS AF offers fast, precise autofocus in Live View mode by using each and every pixel for both AF detection and image capture. For example, it can cover 80% of the horizontal and vertical area of the actual sensor. This is possible because each pixel is actually two separate, but closely adjacent, light-sensitive photodiodes.

The EOS 6D Mark II camera features a Vari-angle Touch Screen 3.0-inch Clear View LCD II monitor that can be ideal for composing and reviewing your shots, especially when recording video. Simply tap the screen during Live View while taking video or photos and thanks to Dual Pixel CMOS AF, it can quickly snap focus to that location. Dual Pixel CMOS AF comes equipped with phase-detection, helping to ensure your results are sharp, keeping the time it takes to lock focus onto your subject to a minimum and smoothly maintaining focus where you want it.

The EOS 6D Mark II camera's Dual Pixel CMOS AF system is improved such that it can continuously track moving subjects across the image plane with high-speed focus using Servo AF in Live View.
