Canon 6D Beats Flagship Mirrorless Cameras in DR Test

A PDR (photography dynamic range) ranking report made by photos to photos website and believe me, reading the entire report is really very interesting. As usual, the report is full of very well capable and costly cameras. But one of the most eye-catching things in this entire report is the presence of Canon 6D(ML) with amazing dynamic range test scores, and surprisingly the PDR test score of these cameras is even better than the Fuji film GFX 50S medium format camera, not only that, you will find several other full-frame cameras below them which include Nikon Z6 Mark II, Z9, and the Sony Alpha A1.

How did they reach the top of the list since Canon DSLRs cameras are known for having less than average Dynamic Range than others in the market before the mirrorless era arrived? if you look at the report it’s really surprising how these DSLRs cameras are beating up today’s latest full-frame and medium format in the list.

magic lantern firmware Boosted the overall performance of the Canon 6D DSLR camera to the next level. As you can see, if we compare the 6D PDR with Canon 6D(ML), the DR range is boosted with increasing ISO.

We have already covered this in our previous post also that with the implementation of magic lantern firmware in Canon cameras the dynamic range is boosting up to a phenomenal level.

I am not encouraging anyone here to use the magic lantern firmware for Canon DSLR cameras to boost up their dynamic range. But it’s also important to shootout for the work done by the magiclantern.fm team, so we are able to witness the level of dynamic range coming out from these all DSLR cameras which was never possible with the original Canon made firmware.

I will just request to Canon and their team member reading this article, they must collaborate with these brilliant engineers who have modified the image and video decoding algorithms of the DSLR camera and their ability to dig out the maximum image quality possible from these old sensors. If they are able to collaborate with these guys, just think about the level of image quality we will be getting in upcoming Canon mirrorless cameras in near future.
