Not new to DLSR camera I wanted an upgrade. I did not own any extra lenses and was coming from a Rebel TSi, a laughable comparison to the 6D Mark II. Since I was not encombered by converting glass I wanted to get a Full Frame (FF) that would last a while. I compared this to the 80D and the 5D MKIV before settling on the 6D MkII. Namely, for the price point difference between 5D MkIV and 6D MkII I can invest the rest into glass (Canon MP-E 65mm, 100mm L) along with the wonderful 24-105mm as an everyday carry around. I was not at all disappointed.
The functions are amazing, the flip screen LCD is scratch resistant, but I mostly keep it shut. What I loved was the GPS function for geotagging. However, this does kill the battery significantly quicker. Each battery lasted about 600 shots. Not too bad. Also did 1-time lapse with this. With keeping an FF, you don't need to worry about upgrading in the future, staying EF mounted and buying only EF glass (MP-E is dual compatible), gives ample of space to grow your lens collection.
Picture Quality: Superb, not as fast a shutter as the 1DX but I'm not shooting sports, this would probably do animal shots "ok" but I'd probably go with the 5d Mk IV for this instead if speed is needed rather than stills.
The Auto Focus (AF) is spot on with a working distance of about 1ft, anything less, switch to manual. Multi-Pixel AF does well, and the shutter is smooth.
It's been a fantastic camera. Super happy with it !
Decent quality. Canon is not a consumer friendly company in my opinion
My wife and I recently had a baby, and the shots I was getting with my old Canon T3i and kit lens just weren't cutting it. I didn't want to get a 5D because of the price, and am very happy with the 6D.
One of the things I was most looking forward to in the upgrade was having more focus points. This one has 45 focus point, and I'm always using this upgraded capability from the 11 focus points that were on my old T3i. I was initially worried since some of the YouTube reviews said that the focus points were all clumped in the middle, and this is definitely true. I'd say that about 10-15% of the time, I wish that the focus points were more spread out and I could focus on something closer to the edge of my photo. Getting a 5D or a mirrorless camera would certainly help with this. Overall though, it's not a huge issue, and I make it work.
High ISO quality is great, tons of features, wifi works (although don't expect this to work like AirDrop...), and the pictures of my daughter always come out sharper and with better colors than iPhone pics. I now have a speedlight, am using the 24-105 F4, and also have a Canon 50mm F1.4. The 1.4 bokeh is so great, I love it on this body. I am also considering getting a 70-200 lens.
If you want to upgrade from a crop to a full frame and shoot in manual a lot, this camera is awesome!
