Sorry if this has been posted already, but DigitalRev compares 6D to D600. Other than the number of cross-type AF points and FPS, I think 6D trumps D600 especially in low light conditions. DigitalRev site is such a Nikon fanboy. I can't believe Kai's conclusion at the end.
Looks like dpreview made their correction. 1/8000 shutter speed was originally in the 1st paragraph of the preview now it's gone. Only if they made all 11 sensors cross type, it would have been a good contender against D600. Here's to hoping that they really pumped up high ISO capability to...
Just read 6D preview on dpreview and I see your point is right about AF sensor being single cross type in the middle. That is truly a bummer. Why would anyone buy 6D over a used 5D2? I could careless about GPS and wifi. The only thing that would make any difference now is it's high ISO...
If 6D is given the same AF system as 7D, most people will prefer to buy 6D instead of 5D3 for $1400 less. I'm pretty certain 6D will have less profit margin over 5D3 to begin with. They will not want 6D eating into 5D3's market. The way I see it, in equivalent terms to crop factor, 6D is like...
I love your piano analogy but not sure if crop should be viewed solely as limitations although I agree with you that even using same exact lens, pictures from FF have that magical quality that crop cameras just cannot. Looks like 5D2 will be able to accommodate you nicely given your shooting...
Nikon is supposedly working on releasing an affordable FF dslr in the near future, so Canon making a similar move to counter Nikon is very plausible. Heck if anything this should help drive 5D2 prices even lower so that I might actually be able to finally afford a FF upgrade. I will have to...
My T2i (550D) takes beautiful shots with less than stellar lens collection I have. I'm sure 600D will be equally capable.
