EOS C500 Mark II overview
The Canon EOS C500 Mark II is an 18.69 MP full-frame cinema camera for Canon EF / EF-S, announced by Canon in September 2019.
Going by its spec sheet, it suits vlogging and selfies, video, and low light. It is a weaker pick for slow handheld shots with unstabilised lenses and eye-level shooting in bright sun.
No store we track in Europe lists it today. It is listed in the United States and Australia.
Worth comparing it with the Sony BURANO, RED V-RAPTOR 8K VV and Canon EOS C300 Mark III.

Low light & noise
6.8 µm pixels
18.69 MP on a full frame sensor, ISO up to 25,600
Bigger pixels gather more light each, so they tend to show less noise at high ISO, but sensor design matters as much. For real noise at ISO 6400, these sites measure it:
