I'm staying put.. for now, but I don't see the MKII as my future, which is a suprise to me.

+1 on not buying. Can you add an "I don't own a 6d" poll option so that we can vote and see the results?

My expectations were a sub$2000 full frame with an updated sensor with dual pixel, touch screen, massively improved AF over mk1, weather sealing. With all the negative news about the new sensor, I'm glad I moved on to fuji. 6dmk2 will still be on my wist list but I am not paying full price for sure. In fact I just ordered sony a7rii with metabone adaptor just to try it out. I really hate leaving canon but apparently I am starting to feel silly for being loyal. In the mean time a Sony body with canon lenses is a viable compromise.

Hopefully others do the same to show Canon what is expected.

That's four bodies north of $1k / three bodies north of $2k in 5 years from 3 different brands.
I really hope you find what you are looking for, but I'd consider renting before buying to save a few bucks!
