You can pretty much get the same Canon APS-C camera in two different formats: the EOS 90D as a classic DSLR or the EOS M6 Mark II as a modern Mirrorless camera. Both feature a 32.5-MP sensor, a DIGIC 8 Image Processor, uncropped 4K UHD video, Dual Pixel CMOS AF in Live View with 5,481 manually selectable AF positions, a 3.0-inch 1.04M-dot touch screen LCD (vari-angle for the 90D, tilt for the M6 II), built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, an electronic shutter that can shoot at 1/16,000 sec., and high-speed Continuous Shooting (10 fps for the 90D, 14 fps for the M6 II).

The following video presents Introducing the Canon EOS M6 Mark II Camera:
The Canon EOS M6 Mark II delivers high quality images and stunning uncropped 4K UHD 30p video in a compact, lightweight design. With an impressive continuous shooting speed of up to 14 fps, an optional electronic viewfinder* (EVF) for precise framing and better low-light shooting, and Touch & Drag AF for quick and accurate focusing, you’ll have the fast and reliable performance needed for the creativity you want.

The side-by-side size comparaison shows the two main physical features that differentiate DSLRs from Mirrorless cameras: the 90D DSLR has an optical viewfinder (the M6 II has available an optional external EVF) and the M6 II is so much smaller and lighter than the 90D.

The EOS 90D DSLR camera is ideal for the advanced-amateur photographer who values the look-and-feel of the DSLR body and benefits such as an optical viewfinder, 3.0-inch vari-angle touch screen LCD, addition of the multi-controller and a shutter button feel of professional EOS cameras. Now capable of shooting up to 10 frames-per-second (fps), a drastic increase from the 7.0 fps with the EOS 80D, users can capture all of the action on the sidelines of a football game or wildlife while on safari. Assisting in a photographers’ ability to capture the action is the 45-point all-cross type AF system, 100 percent viewfinder coverage and now supports up to 27 points in f/8 metering. In addition, the new AE sensor boasts an impressive 220,000 pixels and utilizes EOS iTR AF (face priority) detection. Together, these two features allow for the detection and tracking of faces in various environments and shooting situations while using the viewfinder.
