Excellent image quality, Impressive low-light performance, Intuitive Wi-Fi connectivity and GPS support, Solid and robust build quality, Accurate metering system
Only one cross-type AF sensor, No built-in pop-up flash, GPS and Wi-Fi drain battery life, No manual audio control for HD video
The 6D offers superb image quality at a price that's more realistic than the 5D Mk III. That said, at around £1,689 it still represents a fairly hefty outlay – especially for those looking to upgrade from an APS-C DSLR who will find that their collection ...

Everything the D600 is for Nikonians, the EOS 6D is for Canonites: a relatively affordable full-frame option, aimed at photographers looking to get their start in high-end portraiture or event shooting. Plus the—shall we say—"price insensitive" consumers ...

Abstract: Canon's brand new EOS 6D is the company's most affordable full-frame camera, clocking in at $2,099.99 body-only, and entering into direct competition with the excellent Nikon D600. The most important specs include sensitivity up to ISO 102400, 20.2 megapi...
Full-frame image quality, EOS Utility wireless shooting via computer has potential, view images from camera using smartphone device on location, smallest and lightest full-frame DSLR
Limited autofocus points, central-arrangement of autofocus points, just one SD card slot, no rear joystick-like control, no clean HDMI output, Wi-Fi just isn't user friendly, being forced to use Canon Image Gateway is irritating
The EOS 6D delivers the image quality, but is paired with a focus system that's a game of two halves: it's great in low-light, but lacks the extended number of AF points that we'd like to see. A partially restricted viewfinder is also a downside, while...

Enthusiast, centric controls, Remote control via Wi, Fi, GPS technology, High image quality
No flash, Lacks some connections, 97% viewfinder coverage, Limited viewfinder overlay
All things considered, the Canon EOS 6D is an excellent choice for the enthusiast and club photographer looking for a full-frame DSLR. These users will find that they have just about everything they need, and a bit more besides. It may take them a while ...
Solid build, Built-in Wi-Fi and GPS, Extremely light
Using the jog dial is uncomfortable for moving the focus points, 11-point AF system feels archaic with only one cross type point and relatively small frame coverage, Single SD card slot
The purpose of a camera is to take great photos and make the job of doing so easy and comfortable. The EOS 6D is ergonomically amazing, save for the missing thumb stick for toggling focus points. Using the jog dial is just uncomfortable. The Wi-Fi and GPS...

If you are most interested in stills and dont care that much about video quality, the 6D is a great value—it produces top-notch pictures, with very few compromises, at a lower price than weve ever seen. But if you are looking for the video prowess of th...

Abstract: Despite being only a teensy bit smaller than its rival the Nikon D600, the Canon feels more compact and less dressed for action – whether that's a good or bad thing is up to you. The 11-point autofocus may sound sorely lacking compared to the 39-pointer o...
The Canon EOS 6D feels more like a beefed-up 60D than a simplified 5D Mark III. Handling and customization is kept to a minimum, and the joystick is conspicuously absent. There are only 11 AF points with limited coverage, which is disappointing. Even thou...
