video output, the EOS R5 Mark II camera is ready to deliver.

Accessories for the EOS R5 Mark II camera were designed
thoughtfully with the end-user in mind. There is a new, more
powerful battery. The LP-E6P battery, when compared to previous
battery versions, features higher continuous power and two-times
the amperage. Optional battery grips were also thoughtfully
designed, and there are three options:
- BG-R20– For vertical
operability
- BG-R20EP with
Ethernet – Port enables high-speed wired communication
- CF-R20EP with
Cooling Fan and Ethernet – Cooling fan helps maximize movie

Both cameras feature the new DIGIC Accelerator, which is an
addition to the DIGIC X processor. The DIGIC Accelerator assists
with deep learning processing which helps to quickly analyze large
volumes of data and supports the next-gen AF system, Dual Pixel

Capture and deep learning, allowing end-users to experience
tracking advancements, such as body, joint and head area estimation
and focus on people other than the main subject.
