For photography, you can really get what you need with most cameras made from 2007 and up. After that, it's just a megapixel war. The only thing that has made significant strides would be video capability. Don't be afraid of older cameras. They are still awesome!

I've been using mine since 2014. It's still going strong. I've managed super sharp and colourful low light shots using a canon 50mm 1.4 at a few thousand iso. And with the 24-70 F4.0L It's amazing for long exposure night photography. That one cross type focusing point focuses better in lower light than the 6D mk 2 and many other cameras. A friend and myself were photographing by moonlight recently, and his newer Nikon 750d though an astounding camera, with many more cross type focusing points, needed a torch to find focus. The 6D managed fine by the moon alone.

Lighter body and better high ISO than the 5D probably, but maybe lacking in a few other places. A good compromise choice until I see Canon do something new that I really want.

I'm spending the rest of the money on a Canon 85mm 1.8 lens. I don't think camera bodies have really come that far in 8 years to make a difference for non-pro shooting. I'm trying to put most of my money to the lens. Wi-fi was a huge thing for me which is why I'm not going for the old 7d from 2014. Thank you for confirming my biases Kai.

Put some perspective to this, remember that Professionals used EOS-D1 for their corporate work back in the days and shot fantastic images. The list-price on release was a massive 6500 Eur and the resolution was a meagre 4 MegaPixel only. I have shot on many models over 30 years (including pre-digital) and I now want a new body for photography (only). Since I don't shoot fast action buying a 6D is a no brainer + I know it will last me years to come and quality of images will be top notch. Exceptional value for the money.

I have it and love it and shot award-nominated work with it. The low-light capabilities are awesome and I love having a sub-1000-euro camera because it just feels... less vulnerable somehow. Only downsides for me are the limited auto-focus-points. I often miss composition opportunities with my portrait work because I mostly use the center-focus-point on the eyes, which often means I crop off a part of the body. Smart people may tell me to focus and recompose, but I'm all about capturing the life in someones eyes and the peak of their smile, and focus and recompose often isn't fast or accurate enough for that. So if I get the budget for it I might upgrade to a camera that has eye-auto-focus, but the canon colors and lack of an EVF would be dearly missed. EVF's still feel like I'm playing a video game instead of interacting with a human, at least to me. Cheers to all my canon 6D brothers (and sisters). Let's create magic with this beautiful tool.

In about 2016 the majority of my work was built around portraiture on a 5Diii but then I decided to learn a tiny bit about video to try launching some online haircutting courses- so I searched around for used and abused cheap 6D bodies (I ended up with three of them, two had 300k+ shutter actuations 😳). I set them up with nifty fifties so I could very cheaply record multiple angles of a haircut at once (can’t put hair back on the head and recut it if I missed a shot). That project ended up being the most fun (and lucrative) thing I’ve ever done. Fast forward to today, while I’m making almost zero money with a camera, I spend so much time agonizing about minor technical variances between my R and R6. Occasionally I’ll look for videos like this one (people having positive outlooks or reviews about older simpler cameras) to remind me that the tech specs I stress about aren’t what’s keeping me from going out there and GETTING IT DONE...

I have been using a 6d for ages, i've had 2, and just ordered and rp but if i don't like it, considering the overall state of canon, i might even still get another. The only problem when cameras get old is finding a nice sample, but its not too hard. Or, buy a beat up one super cheap. But nevermind the 6d, i just got a pentax k-5, with a lens, for 300 canadian dollars and it rocks. It shoots way faster than my 6d, its built better, and its pictures don't give up much to the 6d, not accounting for lenses...or flash...or autofocus. Its better in the shadows. Its in beautiful shape. It might actually be the cheapest camera i've ever bought, even cheaper than the basic rebel i got my mom last christmas, and i'm pretty sure all my compacts back in the dirty oughts cost ore than 300 bucks too. Its ridiculous, insane value. I take it out in the woods and beat the shit out of it. Still keeping all my canon stuff, including the 6d. Especially the 6d.

I like this video. I’ve had my 6D since new about 6-7 years ago and just this week bought the 6DMKII. New version is a big improvement over the first generation (in camera stabilization for video, 45 focus ceos points, video auto focus, flippy screen, 26 Megapixel and so much more however, I do agree that that the 6D is a tough camera, never had any issues with its performance and served me well. I’ve got mine on sale right now on eBay.

I've owned a 6D since 2014 or so. Compared to my 90D, the autofocus is appallingly slow on the 6D, especially in the live view mode. The biggest letdown, and one of the reasons why I haven't used it as much as I could, is the fixed display. As a macro photographer, shooting close to the ground is really difficult with the 6D.

Hey man thanks for the upload as I was seriously thinking buying a 6D this summer just upgrade full-frame, since I can't afford a big bang and I already have a Canon 200D/SL2 (my only DSLR). I wanted to ask you, if it is a wise idea to buy a 2012 full-frame DSLR against a 2017 crop-factor with one of Canon's best sensors?

I have been vlogging with a 6D (not an mk or mk2, just the 6D) for some time now. And I can tell you that while the image quality is incredible, it really can be a daunting camera to use due to lack of simple features that make vlogging easier. The first being the lack of continuous auto focus (or even a semi decent autofocus system in general). When I'm shooting handheld I have to autofocus blindly and hope that it's on point. And any shots where the subject is moving in between the depth of field are basically out of the question when you are self shooting. The other major obstacle is the lack of a flip screen monitor, for similar reasons... Vlogging is mostly shooting yourself with both handheld and tripod shots. And without an ability to monitor those shots (unless you get an external monitor, start having cables wired up, etc) I really end up loosing a lot of footage due to the fact that I could't see what was in the frame / field of focus while I was shooting. All in all, I definitely would have bought a different camera if I did it all over again.

Im going to college soon and am gonna start shooting more political-related images and video. On adorama, a used but in good condition 6d mark 1 is around 500 bucks. Ive never shot full frame but this deal is making me consider it. Do you think its worth the get the 6d mark 1 for 500 bucks or get something like a 70d thats new? Thanks!

Hey Noah! Thanks for the support man! This is a tough one - looking at the specs together they rank quite closely on a comparison card, I mean the 6D is a beast of a camera and that full frame sensor is going to beat that crop frame in ISO and shooting in low light. But the 70d comes up with much more bells and whistles with a flip out / touch screen more autofocus points (more cross types etc) faster continuous shooting etc. So it really comes down to the sensor - if you want the experience of the full frame the 6D is a no brainer - if you simply want more than that and can live with the crop frame then look at the 70d and other APS-C cameras. (you can check more details here: cameradecision.com/compare/canon-eos-6d-vs-canon-eos-70d.) Hope it helps in your decision making! Best! Kai.

If anything, the 6D is the sole culpirit for my having finally taken the plunge of breaking my 15-year tenure of Canon cropped bodies, (started in now-remote Dec 2005, when I first took my newly-acquired 10D for a stroll on a chilling evening around Hammersmith Bridge in London), a tenure which consisted of my owning at one time or another around three 10D, one 30D, one 40D and two 50D bodies (strangely, no 20Ds!) and which was only once interrupted by my using an APS-C 1D body for the most of 2007. TBH, I have just acquired said 6D body (in mint-condition and with a considerably low shutter count of 28K actuations, allegedly from a musician, not a photographer) and am counting down the days till I lay my hands on it! Whic, unfortunately, will only happen after this "pandemic" Christmas 2020, unfortunately! Boo-hoo! No fretting though - am still a happy bunny!

The 6d is a great camera. Long time user of the original 5d (classic) and that old still produces amazing images (almost film like) Using the 6d opens up a new world to me(!) It truly feels like the real succesor to the original 5d. Image quality is great and use the high iso noise reduction. At highest setting it works wonders. The 6d looks a bit more digital compared to the original 5d but using it makes it so much more fun. A lcd screen you can actually look at. Higher ISO. On the 5d 800 is pretty as high as you want to go. On the 6d 3200 still looks amazing. Silent shutter is a big plus. Battery life is still amazing and the light weight is a bonus. I tried a 24-105 4 L IS on the 5d but inside it was too slow. Outside in good weather is was great. Now with the 6d I can use the 24-105 again but also inside :) It is the camera that I use to document my family. The shots I made with the 5d en 6d speak to me the most. I also use a X-Pro2 with primes but the images look a bit different. A bit harsher. That camera is great for everything but those Canoj images have that different feel to it.

One of the best cameras compared to some of the modern ones as they seem to get lots of problems with, the canon 6D is built like a tank and lasts for ages and mine have been pretty faultless and as I do a lot of Astro it’s brill with its massive sensor... I was thinking of the Sony alpha range of cameras as they take nice pics but reading up on them lots of trouble and with many more modern makes I read up on so I’m sticking to my beasty 6D for now and saving my money to buy lenses for it instead.

The 6D is the camera I built my freelancing business on. Going from a 550D to a 6D was like going from a scooter to a 800cc motorbike for me. Lots of people will tell you that it’s not about kit, it’s about creativity, which is true... however the confidence that this camera gave me, knowing that I would almost always get beautiful shots meant that I could go out confidently to paid jobs and know that I wouldn’t have to use my creativity as much to fix things in post. It’s something that I have never regretted purchasing and based on my experience 100% recommend! Hope that helps answer your question. (:
