I am seeing the Canon 5DS R advertised at dealer site (4 July Sale) for $2595. Even less at non dealer web sites. Would you rather have a 6D II for $1999. or pay $600 more and get a new 5DS R? Not a lot of space in the prices, but a lot of space in the capabilities.
Which would you prefer
- Thread starter BeenThere
- Start date
This is difficult to answer for two reasons. One; We do not know what you are shooting and Two; We do not know the performance of the 6DII.
My guess would be that the 6DII will have a better video function (I know nothing about video and honestly don´t care), slightly better DR (probably not enough to make a difference) and better high ISO performance (seeing is believing). The 5DSR will probably win in everything else.
We should see the first impression articles and videos by the end of the week, so it is not a long wait

here in the UK it's less clear, dealer prices are currently
5D4 £3349
5DSR £3299
5DS £3099
5D3 £1999
6D £1399
if the 6D2 does the typical $1=£1 and arrives at £1999 it's a very different thing altogether
go to digitalrev and you have
5D4 £2459
5DSR £2159
5DS £2021
6D £999.96
so totally different again - if DR release the 6D2 at £1999... well if you're willing to buy from DR, not sure that you'd bother with a 6D2 at that price..
what sort of price the 6D2 settles to after a few months may make a difference, but only time will tell.
still, depends on what you shoot.. I'm sure the 6D2 will be better at some things - or be a better compromise.

They quoted the prices that they found. (dollar prices so presumably not UK)foo said:
I agree with Eldar, the 6D-II is an unknown at this point. The logical approach is to wait for solid info first then weighing what each offers against one's personal priorities.
