Taking photos with a full-frame camera is an amazing experience. Shots just look so much wider and more fulfilling thanks to the bigger sensor. It used to be that you had to pay big bucks to get yourself a full-frame camera, but thanks to Canon, you can now get a model like the EOS 6D for about...
Pros:
  • Full-frame sensor
  • Comparatively affordable
  • Great for all types of photography
Cons:
  • Fixed screen
  • Very soft shutter button

Camera Test: Canon EOS 6D

Just as with the D600, we were quite impressed with the EOS 6D. There are clear compromises that must be made to reach this price point, but we feel Canon did a good job of cutting costs in the right places to create a camera that is a pleasure to use.

The EOS 6D is Canon's attempt to entice DSLR owners who are looking for the benefits of full frame shooting - including shallower depth of field and wider-angle lens coverage, but can't afford the EOS 5D Mark III .
Pros:
  • Excellent detail in raw file output across ISO range
  • Class-leading low light focus sensitivity (from central AF point
  • Very effective JPEG noise reduction at highest ISO sensitivities
  • Impressively quiet 'silent' shutter drive mode
  • Quick Control menu provides easy access to shooting settings,...
Cons:
  • JPEG engine struggles with low-contrast fine detail at low ISO sensitivities
  • Low density 11 point autofocus array with only one cross-type AF point
  • Single card slot (SD
  • Slow burst rate compared to its full frame peers
  • Cannot configure common live view and movie mode options independently
  • Video...

Canon EOS 6D

In some respects, it's hard to tell who Canon's targeting with the EOS 6D, its "budget" full-frame camera. It's got some fairly consumer-y features and specifications. GPS? Check. Built-in Wi-Fi? Check. Single SD card slot? Check. Viewfinder with less than 100 percent coverage? Check.
Pros:
  • The Canon EOS 6D delivers the photo and video quality you expect from a full-frame sensor
  • in a well-designed and relatively lightweight body
Cons:
  • While the camera has nice extra features
  • like Wi-Fi and GPS support
  • it's missing some basics for the price like on-camera flash
  • multiple card slots
  • and a 100 percent-coverage viewfinder

Canon EOS 6D

Prior to the announcement of the Canon EOS 6D ($2,099 direct, body only) and the Nikon D600 , shooters who wanted a full-frame camera -one with an image sensor the same size as a 35mm film frame-were faced with a small number of choices at $3,000 and up.
Pros:
  • Compact
  • Inexpensive for its class
  • Full-frame sensor
  • 4.5fps shooting
  • Superb image quality at high ISOs
  • Interchangeable focus screens
  • Integrated GPS and Wi-Fi
  • 1080p30 video capture
  • Battery grip available
  • Supported USB tethered and Wi-Fi remote control
Cons:
  • Not the fastest camera on the block
  • Viewfinder only offers 97 percent coverage
  • Not compatible with EF-S lenses
  • GPS saps battery life
  • No flash
  • Slow focus during video recording
  • No PC Sync socket

Canon EOS 6D review

Full-frame DSLRs used to be priced for and targeted at professional photographers. However, such guidelines no longer strictly apply. Like Nikon's D600, the Canon EOS 6D is an ‘affordable' full-frame DSLR aimed squarely at the enthusiast, but which may also find popularity with professionals who...
