EOS R6 Mark II - only records multiple exposures as jpg?

[Ms2thdr]

What is the rationale for Canon changing this?  I would think they would encourage creativity rather than restrict it.  I am glad that my R6mii allows me to finally use my RF24-240 to take multiple exposures, but the fact that I now only have a .jpg to process afterwards almost makes it useless.  Is there any hope that Canon will change this or a way to let Canon know that it was a poor move to change it?  #R6mii #multipleexposure

Greetings,

This is expected behavior. Please see this article.  The answer to your question is about 3/4 of the way down the page.

Thank you for your response.   However as “expected” as the behavior is, it is a change from the behavior of the original R5 and R6 and is a downgrade in quality.  It is useless for dedicated multiple exposure photographers to have their in-camera output be a .jpg and takes away much of the versatility of the camera for that use.  My question was more to ask how can I contact canon to register my displeasure at this.  No one buys a camera of any quality and expects that the functions will be downgraded not upgraded. 
thank you again for your quick response

Ms2thdr,

I could be wrong, but it seems like with Canon, any time  you combine images the resulting output is a jpg.

At least , on my camera, a T8i, if I use the "special modes" (Highlight Back Control or HDR) the resulting output is a jog.

Because a multiple exposure is a type of print.  A JPG file is a digital print.  A RAW file is a digital equivalent of a film negative.

My 6D merged the files into a CR2. But I don't remember if that CR2 contains raw data.

Multiple exposures?  Or HDR shots?  I am not sure what type of end result the OP Is referring to.  I don’t have my 6D anymore, and never tried to make double / multiple exposures with it. My recollection is that the end result was always a JPG “print”.

The end result could be a product of images captured at different times, exposure, lens, white balance, etc.
