Teknowarta – Canon has officially launched its latest camera, the EOS R6 V, designed to meet the dynamic needs of modern content creators. This full-frame camera is built with a video-first philosophy, focusing on the production flexibility required to create multiple content formats from a single shoot.
PT Datascrip, the sole distributor of Canon digital imaging products in Indonesia, introduced the EOS R6 V for creators who actively produce horizontal, vertical, and cinematic content.
Canon Launches Two Pro Cameras and a New Lens to Support Creators
The EOS R6 V is equipped with a 32.5-megapixel full-frame sensor that supports high-resolution recording up to 7K Open Gate. This Open Gate technology allows users to utilize the entire sensor area, providing greater flexibility for footage during the post-production process.
With this feature, creators can record a single video and later reframe it for various social media platforms without the need for a reshoot. To further streamline the creative process, Canon has included 14 Color Filters that help produce ready-to-use visuals directly from the camera.
This feature complements the Log Profile and Picture Style support already available in Canon’s professional video lineup. For creators who have specific aesthetic preferences, the camera also supports the use of custom LUTs (Look-Up Tables) internally. This integration ensures a faster editing workflow while maintaining visual color consistency across all productions.
According to Monica Aryasetiawan, Canon Business Unit Director at PT Datascrip, today’s creators require a camera capable of keeping up with increasingly fast-paced production rhythms. She stated that the EOS R6 V was engineered to provide greater creative flexibility while ensuring a comfortable and reliable video recording experience.
A standout feature of the EOS R6 V is the inclusion of an internal cooling fan, which maintains temperature stability during long-duration video recording sessions.

Canon claims that the 7K Open Gate MP4 recording capability of the EOS R6 V can last up to three times longer than that of the EOS R6 Mark III. This enhanced endurance makes the camera an ideal choice for interviews, live events, video podcasts, and one-take productions.
The EOS R6 V is also natively designed for vertical content, featuring a dedicated vertical tripod socket that eliminates the need for additional brackets. The camera’s interface automatically adjusts its orientation when positioned vertically, making it highly practical for social media specialists. Furthermore, Canon has added customizable buttons, allowing users to configure button functions according to their specific production needs.
A dedicated record button is also positioned on the front of the camera body to facilitate self-shooting and solo productions. For remote operations, the EOS R6 V supports the Canon Camera Connect app, available for smartphones. To ensure stable handheld recording, the camera is equipped with In-Body Image Stabilization (IBIS) that works in tandem with digital stabilization.
Canon has also included support for the EOS VR System, catering to creators who wish to explore virtual reality video production. Despite its heavy focus on video, the EOS R6 V remains a powerhouse for professional photography, offering high-speed burst shooting at up to 40 frames per second.
To complement the EOS R6 V, Canon has introduced the RF20-50mm f/4L IS USM PZ lens. This is the first professional L-series full-frame lens from Canon to feature a built-in power zoom. The lens utilizes an internal zoom design, which helps maintain the camera’s balance when mounted on a gimbal or video rig.
The RF20-50mm f/4L IS USM PZ offers a constant f/4 aperture and features a dust- and splash-resistant design, making it suitable for production in various environments.
PT Datascrip is marketing the Canon EOS R6 V (body only) at a price of Rp 38,999,000. The Canon EOS R6 V kit, which includes the RF20-50mm f/4L IS USM PZ lens, is available for Rp 58,999,000. For those looking to purchase the RF20-50mm f/4L IS USM PZ lens separately, it is priced at Rp 25,999,000.
