SUMMARY
While Canon launched the EOS R6 V camera and RF 20-50mm f/4L PZ lens, the author expresses greater enthusiasm for the new BR-E2 Bluetooth remote. This first-party remote is notable as few brands still offer them, relying instead on smartphone apps. The BR-E2 offers significant upgrades over its predecessor, the BR-E1, including dedicated record and customizable buttons, and a W-T zoom rocker for more tactile control, making it a valuable tool for solo content creators and those using power zoom lenses.
