Best Option, Best handling EM1, D750 or 6D ??

[pmoromalos]

Hello.

I want to buy a new camera, I have in my mind these options. I Know 6D and D750 have better IQ ,DOF and ISO performance..

I shoot Landscape, travel, portraits and events.

What about handling of them ???

What is the best choice ??

thx a lot..

I assume you mean O-EM1 ?
Good camera but from what I heard should be replaced soon.
Not same league as a full frame camera but they do have a nice lens options and their 2 main interesting things is gorgeous design and size and weight.
Limited by their smaller sensor so low light is good but not close to full frame.
If you want best results then my vote (naturally) is the D750.
It has much better dynamic rage and has more shadow recovery, IQ will be a bit better too.
Low light the D750 and 6D are probably close.
6D has a considerably less advanced AF system and is just long in the tooth, rumored to be replaced soon.

So while the D750 is more expensive except in low light it is better then the 6D in everything else.

If you do not care about the size and weight, and you do not have any specific demands for JPEG colour rendition, then D750 is clearly the best option, as overall it is the best camera out of these three.
If budget is limited, 6D could be a good option.
If you prefer to travel light then O-EM1 might be preferred.
All these cameras are good, no one can decide for you what exactly you need.

Only you can answer this question. Different people have different wants out of a camera....it's why there are so many options.

If you're shooting events, I wouldn't use a micro 4/3 camera. Not enough low light capability.

You mentioned the Nikon D750. Just an FYI, it appears it's being recalled.

The Nikon D750 is Disappearing From Stores Shelves. A Quiet Recall is Underway

An issue with flare was found with some models, this is being addressed and once fixed the cameras will probably be back on shelves.

Handling?

 

[Ido]

Handling is a very subjective matter. No one can tell you how a camera will feel in your hands, you have to feel it in your own hands yourself. Go to a local camera store that carries the cameras you're interested in and try them out yourself.
I've been shooting with an OM-D E-M5 for over a year and I'm totally satisfied. Here's my Flickr page so you can get an idea of its capabilities, though I'm probably not even pushing it near its limits: Flickr: ido.scharf's Photostream

• Landscapes: Great for that. The light weight makes it easier to carry on hikes to great locations. It hasn't let me down at all in any situation, though I do need to merge exposures sometimes because the sensor's dynamic range isn't wide enough.
• Travel: Outstanding, no doubt it's better than the two full-frame DSLRs simply because of its weight and size.
• Portraits: They will all be great, though with the E-M1 you may find you need to use prime lenses more often to get the background separation you may want. With the full-frame sensor, pretty much all you'll ever need for portraits, as far as lenses go, is a 70-200mm f/2.8, while you may need more than one lens with the E-M1 to get similar results (though it would still be lighter).
• Events: Use a flash, if you know how to use one, and you'll be fine with any of them. If for some reason you can't use a decent flash, the full-frame cameras with f/2.8-or-better lenses will be a lot better.

Thx alot for your help... The desicion is difficult as in the island i live, there aren't stores to see cameras from near.

I didn't mention, i had EM5, i sold because i didn't like the handling, also it had problems with moving subjects....

Good camera but from what I heard should be replaced soon.

i don't heard anything for EM1 replace....
