6D vs 5D mark III
« on: January 03, 2013, 08:05:18 AM »
So, here is a review and a bunch of tests on dynamic range, low light, focus, and video between these cameras:

Canon 6D Vs. 5D Mark III Hands On Review Small | Large



Interestingly enough the video on the 6D looked much sharper than the 5D. However, while my video didn't have much Moire in it, other tests are showing this is a huge issue in the 6D and not so much in the 5D. Canon must have removed something to make the 6D sharper that no longer defends against Moire.

Line-skipping VS pixel binning video. The 6D uses line-skipping and the 5D3 uses binning, thus the video is superior on the mk3.

I remember us hoping that canon would use some line skipping tech in the 5D3 to make the video sharp like picture...too bad that never happened.
