nope.... really wanted to

nope.... really wanted to

me neither, so it's really 5d2 or 5d3 after all - Canon crippling the af system so there's *no* cross-type af point even in the center w/ a f2.8+ lens nails this to the amateur market, no wonder the sample shots on their product page were taken with a 14-70/4 lens and the kit lens is the 24-105/4.

Don't really think any pro would and I'm starting to abandon ship after 15years of Canon

You'd need to be very patient to pre-order, it's not due out until December! Meanwhile the D600 goes on sale tomorrow...

And that's assuming that Canon actually meet that target date. Given their ability to deliver on time this year, I wouldn't be willing to risk my life or job on getting a 6D in December.

Can you feel the love in this thread?

Can you feel the love in this thread?

I think the amount of love in this thread echos the love from Canon.

6D is $2100 but the 5D Mk3 is available as low as $2800?  For $700 more I could get a more capable (but still overpriced) camera?  No thanks 6D.  At $1500-$1700, yes but not at $2100.

After a couple of months the retail price on the 6D will probably settle to $1700-1800 mark, but until then... yeah, go for the 5D3.
