Canon 6D

[Learnphotography]

I dont need 97% and many AF points to make photographs. But since im paying US$2099, i expect it to have!

Hmm FF in a 60D sized body, interesting. What bugs me isn't the 1/4000 max shutter, it's the 97% VF :think:

The AF & sensor is still unknown... so will wait and see the review on these two items.....

I would love it to be 100%, but I could consider this........ depending on how the AF works.....

After I get my lens first...

ya agree if compare to nikon d600 since they release first....

by the looks of it...canon is trying hard to maintain their lines of product to be balance and making a clear statement which line is for which type of consumer.....and keeping all current line in sale.....

nikon d600 is like pushing everyone to the ff scene now giving its affordable price w those sweet specs

At 1/4000, my 1.2 lenses will have to struggle with having too much light outdoors. Thankfully there is ISO 50 in the 6D. So 1/8000 would be a good buffer.

Hi, i am just a hobbist....i am not trying to be funny: i read that a camera's "native iso" is usually somehwere in the region between 100 and 200 and that going below the native iso will degrade the picture quality.....the website i read yesterday suggest that shooting at 50iso on donno which 1d body will be equal to 800iso

are these true?

i'm tempted to trade-in my 5D if it comes with a built-flash, and autofocus for video.

650D - Autofocus HD Video, Touchscreen menus
60D - Articulate LCD, Good AF, Good weight and size
7D - 19 AF points, Intelligent Viewfinder, 8 FPS
6D - FF, lightweight, Cheapest FF

Wait for 6D final version.... they may improve some features after the "comments" from the loyal fans.

Yes, ISO 50 is not native but expanded so results probably would not be better. But if you need it then no choice unless you want to carry ND filters.

Hi,
Look like the 6D had a super center AF point:
6D - hands on & first experience - FM Forums

Have a nice day.

Read: 6D - hands on & first experience - FM Forums

its a positive experience with the AF

 

[esoeij]

Wonder how good the al servo AF is with that centre AF point.

if the AF is solid like 5d3, can consider buying 6d instead of 5d3 ;p

Thanks you for explaining!

Well any amount well be profit as their prices are relatively becoming higher n higher..definitely 4 fold over cost of making it

from the way i see, there is nothing wrong about it. Canon is not a charity organisation. As long as consumers are willing to accept the price, Canon can sell. Just like Apple Iphone, ppl know the price is way too high, but they just buy.

you don't need to use 1.2 outdoor n daytime. stop down and the problem is solved luckily in 6D it's 1/8k.

Use an ND or a PL filter...

My gut feeling is, now canon announce almost similar price to nikon d600, but will drop 6D prices lower than the street price of the D600 by dec 2012.

The profit buffer will give canon the flexibility to position the product when launched.
