Six selling points for the 6D Taken from Bryan Carnathan’s Review
Review Date: 2012-12-16
This is a body that I had not considered… outlawyer got my attention relating the IQ of the 6D to that of my 5D… So I read this review… twice…
…”I do think that the 6D is producing less noise than even the 5D III when compared at their native resolutions. You won't see much difference at lower ISO settings, but somewhere around ISO 800 to 1600, I can start to see a slight difference.”… Bryan Carnathan’s Review
…”The 6D up-sized images were output to 5D III resolution. The differences between these two cameras become harder to see at identical output resolution, but the 6D retains advantage at very high ISO settings.”… Bryan Carnathan’s Review
…”The 6D's available shutter speed range is 1/4000 to 30 sec. as well as bulb. The 6D's X-sync speed is 1/180 sec”… Bryan Carnathan’s Review
I seldom go over 1/640, most of my shooting is in the 1/250 to 1/30 sec. range.
…”I can focus the 6D's center point on a subject with reasonable contrast down until autoexposure gives me a setting of 160 at 10 seconds and f/2.8 (really dark) with the Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8 L II USM Lens mounted (note that the 6D's metering range spec is listed at EV 1-20).
The Canon EOS 1D X's center point could not focus on the same subject with the same lens mounted.”… Bryan Carnathan’s Review
Interesting
…“The 6D did a good job tracking these animals (horses) with the center AF point working quite well. The peripheral AF points did not perform as well, but their results were not bad - I'm not disappointed.”… Bryan Carnathan’s Review
Not a deal killer for me.
…”Build quality was also not sacrificed in the 6D. My understanding is that this camera has a level of weather sealing, but I have not been able to get clarification on what that level is.”… Bryan Carnathan’s Review
Now some time to see if I understand everything I just learned…
Seems the 6D may be at the top of the list...
