Let the pixel-peeping begin....

certainly a "mere coincidence" that ISO100-400 sample pics are available, while ISO800 and above are only "coming soon".

Seeing this, I take it for granted, that the "new" 6D sensor also sucks, at least compared to Nikon/Sony. Probably no improvement at all in DR, noise, banding compared to 5D 2 and 3.

Well, I can say that Image 5 (Portrait at ISO 200) is a definite win. I rate it at 10/10.

You didn't expect anything exciting, did you?

With that focus system and a single sd card slot, I would never use this for anything professional. The portrait pic 5 looks like the focus locked on something other than the eye. With this crap focus system i'm sure the photographer either had to focus and recompose or just locked on to the lips which look like they would be closer to the center (the only decent) focus point. The result is a missed focus on the eye.

from my point of view .... Nikon wins..... the last stronghold that canon my have in the ''war'' with D600 is destroyed.

As a 7D user that wants to upgrade to FF i am left with 2 choices: 5D3 or Nikon. more appealing at this moment is Nikon.

Stop comparing a photographic camera (Nikon) with a video DSLR (6D). There's no comparison.

Nikon wins??? Look at the Canon 6D video shot in a dimly lit cave @ ISO = 12800. Canon has won the video DSLR battle again....just as they did 4 years ago with the 5D mark II

if you rate that portrait at 10/10 how you rate this one (made with Nikon D600):

12 out of ten?

from the first samples available ( Canon 6D and Nikon D600 ) Nikon CLEARLY wins.

I am a Canon fun and use Canon gear from many years... but i must admit... in this  days Nikon is better.

My personal preference is to see all the face in focus.

Man, that Nikon shot is WAY sharper than the Canon 6D. I've been a Canon fan for years but Nikon is winning me over. I'd never buy the 6D over the D600 but the 5DIII is still compelling. When it comes to straight picture quality though, Nikon is winning all over the place. Not sure whether to switch to Nikon with the D600 or D800 or to update my 7D to the 5DIII. The 6D is worthless to me. The best combination though is a 5DIII with a D800. The 5DIII for the low light and run & gun style shooting with the D800 and a nice sharp lens for landscapes and portraits. Of course, the D4 is even better for low light & run & gun shooting so you could go all Nikon

the canon seems to have much smaller filesize. which more favor to travel photographer. and the built in gps snd wifi are a plus

The brochures are out for the D600 here in Japan at least, and the printed shots (including that portrait) are looking just as good~

The 6D shot is clearly out of focus, look at the eyes. Perhaps a result of the crippled AF system
