Anyone kept their 6d since upgrading to a 5d4?

I have the 6D, 5DSR and just picked up the 5D Mark IV on Cyber Monday. I used the 6D and 5DSR for travel with the 5DSR with the 24-105 and 6D with a 100-400. I replaced the 6D with the 5D mark IV and love having the same controls. I am keeping the 6D for astrophotography. I use it primarily with a prime 20mm but am picking up the Sigma 14mm for the astro season. This winter I am going to get the 6D astro modded. So I am keeping it but just turning it into a dedicated astrophotography camers

I too got a 5d4 during Black Friday. (Anybody want a printer and a battery grip?) and my old camera is a 6d. I am keeping both. I just got a Cotton Carrier harness vest for two cameras. I have planned for some time to do this. Now I can keep the telephoto on the 5d4 and the wide/wider angle lens on the 6d so I can deal with anything going on without needing to change lenses.

Also went through having the 6D & 5DSR/R and using the 5DIV on the side and can attest that life is with the 5DIV/5DS/R combo due to the controls.

However, the super duo is a 5DS/R for ultimate photo quality and a Dx for ultimate speed and action photography with the 5DIV sitting somewhere in between for those who prefer working with one camera body and either need more pixels than a Dx offers or the video goodness 5DIV brings together with just a little more speed than the 5DS/R. Personally, I also find the 5DIV touch screen a real advantage.

Hope the next gen 5DS/R will have both touch and full swivel screen.
