Sony rx1 or Canon 6d with sigma 35mm 1.4

I think that if you know that the features of the RX1 fit your preferences, then it is the right camera. If you aren't sure that a fixed lens camera is right for you then maybe avoid it. I'm glad to see that we are now beginning to get the variety of types of digital camera to match the choices of film camera types we have. Those of us who have used fixed lens film cameras that make the RX1 look like it has a bargain basement price have an easier time deciding whether or not it is right for us. I think the RX1 is unmatched for its size, optical quality and sensor performance. If those matter to you, and you know that a fixed 35 mm lens would work for you then go for it if you can justify the cost to yourself. No need to justify it to us, of course, but hey, this is the internet and here you have to justify everything you do to complete strangers who are totally unaffected by your personal decisions.

There is a Maserati shop next door to our studio. I often spend my free time in there telling the customers that they would be better off spending the money doing cool stuff. Their usual reaction is 'Hey, thanks, I never thought of that. I would only have had $15 left after buying this Maserati.'

You might want to consider the 35/1.4L or the 50/1.4. The bokeh on the sigma is not desirable at all when compared to the 35/1.4L. Just throwing that out there.

Oh ok I'd love the 35mm 1.4.L but can't afford it yet has anyone tried the new cheaper Canon with image stabilisation .

I haven't, but I have had experience with the old 35/2, and it wasn't amazing. I would expect the new version to be better, but haven't looked at the mtf charts. Plus, mtf charts are not the end all photographic benchmark.
