not the 6D has problems with 3rd party haha.. but the 3rd party batteries have problem with the 6D

You need to buy the latest versions of third party batteries that were decoded for the 6D, or the original ones.

I read somewhere that the 6D has problems with 3rd party battery?
is that true?

My 50 f/1.4 lens also only has 8-digit serial number inscribed on it. Date code is not imprinted.

I thought L lens will definitely have date code stamp. Are you looking at the black or silver lens mount surface?

some of the new lenses do not have the alphabetical date codes anymore, but some restarted at UA, not sure what is the practice.

My new 24-70 MKII no lens code. The sales person only printed out the receipt with serial number from the bottom of the lens. So I presume, it will be a norm soon.

Hi all. I just read the features of the 6d. Is it true that they have multiple exposure function, combining 2 different scenes into one image? The promotion book has the feature but the cusomter service staff didn't have a clue on it
