6D Need To Change Something..

[EYEONE]

I'll take better AF spread over more AF points any day of the week. Honestly it's better that Canon developed a new system for FF than just cram the 7D system into a FF body like Nikon did.

I hope the reviews on this site are not going to be like this... 

It seems we all want a 5DMk3 at Rebel prices...  wouldn't that be nice.

Go buy the camera you think is better and send me your 6D.

6d vs 5d3 (source: http://thenewcamera.com/canon-6d-vs-canon-5d-mark-iii/)
 

Interesting, the comparisons that I've seen show the 6D's AF points to be much more tightly grouped in the centre than they appear in this picture

See: http://www.canonrumors.com/forum/index.php?topic=9656.msg174173#msg174173. 

To be honest, I think that I believe the conceptualisations that I found more than the one above.  Can anyone that's actually looked through a 6D viewfinder confirm?

P.S. mitesh, if possible could you please check for previous threads and try posting in them, rather than creating new ones? I know that it can be difficult to find older threads, especially if you're new to the forums, so I'm not trying to have a go at you.  It's just that posting to existing threads can avoid repeating old topics. 

I looked through it on the first day of photokina in cologne: The AF spread is much tighter than on my 5D III, to be honest: I don't think there is any diffrence to the D600 in terms of AF poin spread....

My 2c is that if you like B&W (and I suspect you do), go look at the pics there and hang the text in most threads.
If you love colour (or color) photography, take at a look at the bird, animal and landscape shots (in no suggested order)...
This site has a number of artistic, insightful and tech-savvy persons. You need to sift through the posts and distill...
It is hard work - much like survival in the 21st century...


I am just learning the ropes and I thought I'd share...
Enjoy! That is why we have a hobby (or profession) that we enjoy...

Not sure about the high ISO performance of 6D, but the D600 is outstanding.
Has anyone checked the D600's preview on DPreview, the high ISO performance is better than 5D3 in RAW

Interesting graph. To my eye, the sample frames show an opposite picture (no pun), i.e. D600 shows more noise. The D600 noise is also a lot splotchier for the lack of a better term. Perhaps some sort of on-chip median filter again?

Did u ever check the 39 AF points urself? Imho its totally marketing bullshit since they are all cramped up in the middle of the viewfinder! It sounds great "wow 39" but in real its not that cool...



Imho its no advantage over the 6D.

Excellent point! In my humble opinion ALL autofocus point placements are for the birds. So the only difference is really how fast and sensitive those points are. If you want to focus on anything along the lines of the rule of thirds or even further out you're pretty much screwed even with a 1-series camera or what ever the current Nikon equivalent is.

One of the reasons I really never wanted an autofocus SLR to begin with and clung to my FD system until digital had become more or less unavoidable.

My 50'000$ Honda has only 14 cupholders, while the 45'000$ Toyota of my friend has 22 cupholder. I like to talk to the Honda CEO, he needs to do something about that. Why does my Honda have fewer Cupholder than the cheaper Toyota.
I also need to bring my Honda to the dealer for inspection every 20'000km, while the Toyota only needs to go every 25'000km.
Honda will be going down if they continue like this. I will sell it and buy me a Toyota.

Wow... anyone ever stop to think that English may not be the OP's primary language?  Who cares if the grammar isn't up to par.  Many of the members of this forum make far less sense with their posts and English is often their primary Language.  Give the OP a break. If you have something constructive to post then post it... otherwise stop insulting and move on to another thread...

It seems you didn't get my point (it was not about language).

I made a little fun about people comparing cameras like they would compare cars in a Top Trumps card game. Sure, it is fun to compare cameras, but it does not say all that much about the quality of a camera, and even less about the quality of the pictures you can take with it.
I don't think I'm at the wrong place here; I rather think that all the people in here who are playing Top Trumps with camera specs are wrong in here, but this is only my personal opinion.

You could have just said that.  To us viewers You appeared to be mocking the OP and came across as extremely rude....

It was his/her first post, and the other poster's comment about learning how to use commas and then yours didn't make for a warm welcome.

Comparably Nikon D600 The Canon 6D Is Very Embarrassing.....

Nice First Post on a Canon forum, mitesh.

Can you say anything that suggests you are NOT a troll?

[sandymandy]

Id feel F______ super lucky and happy if id have the 6D! I think the opinion about it depends on the income

Comparably Nikon D600 The Canon 6D Is Very Embarrassing..

Canon 6D Has Superb ISO Sensitivity...
But Comparing With Nikon D 600..

Nikon D600 Have :-

:- Dual Card Slot, (Canon 6D Has Single) (So,Poor)
:- 39 AF Point, (Canon 6D Has 11)
:- Built In Flash (For Trigger Off Camera Flash) - (Canon 6D Don't )
:- 1,50,000 Shutter Durability, (Canon 6D Has 1,00,000)

Canon 6D Doesn't Have Such(above) Kind Of Facility..

Is Canon Need To Replace Canon 6D Body..??

The 6D needed to have a multi-selector. Instead it went with the awkward ergos of the 60D. Ehhh.....

This is actually a signficiant thing turning me off of the 6D.  The multi-selector from the 60D is just awful.
