Top 6 through 10

6. Overrated Canon has turned out another pathetic camera. Sad.
7. I live in Alaska and I'm about to die in a North Korean missile attack.
8. I'm afraid everyone will think I have a sixty-two.
9. I'm a vampire hunter and I've decided I need a mirrorless.
10. My wife saw the pre-order.


11. I wasn't wearing my glasses and thought i was ordering a russian bride.

I hate EVFs....even the really good ones....although I haven't tried the A9 so maybe it is finally tolerable for short periods unlike all the other ones.

Looking through a 1DX OVF after looking through an EVF is like a breathe of fresh air. I see the value of seeing the image as it will turn out in the VF but so far the quality of EVFs isn't good enough to make that feature worth the headache of looking through one all day long.


Me too. I don't understand why people harp on about them. Either they are noobs who truly enjoy a digital image, are shills, or just plain nuts.

The 6D Mark II is only compatible with USB 2?

Good grief.

My understanding from un-named sources is that the Canon 6D II will be introduced as a Refurbished model from the get go ..

Newsflash, there is no shutter warranty on any Canon camera. If your Canon camera shutter fails after a year +1 day and has 1 click on it, you will be paying for a new shutter.

And in the unlikely event that you need a shutter repaired, the cost is only $200-300.

If you are a pro shooting 10K frames at every wedding, it makes sense to buy a camera with a more durable shutter.

If you are only putting 10-20K frames on a camera per year, you will probably never have a shutter fail.

Shutter counts mean nothing to me. I don't care what Canon rates them as and I don't really care when buying a used camera. Shutters are so unpredictable with some going early, some going over 1 million even on non-1 series cameras. The shutter rating on the 6D2 would be something I wouldn't even pay attention to in the specs if it was there. YMMV.

Reasons to cancel 6D2 order:
1) You want to shoot 4K video
2) You want more than 26MP
3) You want DR to be more than whatever it turns out to be
4) You want more than 6.5FPS
5) You don't want a flippy screen
6) You want a joystick
7) You want 2 card slots
8) You want a larger camera
9) You want a smaller camera
etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, .............

That was a good one!


Hmmm... I wonder if they'll issue me a refund for the difference.
