BACKSTORY: I purchased two of the original Canon 6D bodies in 2014 to use as a backup to my two Canon 5D Mark III bodies. It was a "just-in-case" purchase that I could use if my primary camera failed while covering a wedding. Eventually they started to accompany me on hikes, trips, and other daily life routines. Using the less expensive camera for unpaid moments in life just made more sense. Why risk having an accident with my 5D Mark III when I could bring the less expensive Canon 6D, right? It didnt take much time for me to realize that the image quality was superb, dynamic range was acceptable, and ISO performance was not that much different than the 5D Mark III. So I made a cost-savings analysis, ended up selling my 5D Mark III bodies, and purchased 2 Canon 6D bodies with money left to spare. Yes, I have 4 Canon 6D bodies. And yes, I use them to photograph weddings. You can read more about this decision in the "final words" section, but for now lets get to the cream and butter. ---------- REVIEW: ********** WEIGHT and ERGONOMICS: 6D: Approximately 1.6 pounds including battery and SD card. 6D Mark II: Approximately 1.8 pounds including battery and SD card. Difference: Negligible Note: They both weigh virtually the same amount of weight, and both feel virtually the same with one exception. That exception is the rear thumb placement. I personally think the Mark II has a slightly more comfortable rear thumb placement than the 6D does. This solely has to do with the thumb ridge extending onto the SD card slot door. This point is more subjective than objective, but two photographer friends have agreed -- so take that for what its worth. ---------- VIEWFINDER COVERAGE: 6D: 97% coverage 6D Mark II: 98% coverage Difference: 1% Note: A 1% increase in coverage is VERY hard to notice. If I didnt know the 6D Mark II had 98% coverage I would have assumed it had the same as the original 6D because I see absolutely no difference. ---------- VIEWFINDER INTELLIGENCE I dont use it very often, but once-in-a-while I will deploy the 6Ds electronic level for either landscape or real estate photographs and sometimes the grid for still life photos. The pain with using them was the need to switch between two separate LCD live view modes. I would have to use the electronic level, go back to compose my shot, and then check the electronic level again to make sure it was still in alignment. And although the grid was able to be superimposed over images in live view, I still disliked using the LCD screen because it felt unnatural to me. The 6D Mark II has made electronic leveling and grid display available through its "intelligent viewfinder" which is a really neat feature. This means you can now look through the viewfinder and superimpose an electronic level OR grid display onto the screen. Gone are the days of having to use the live view function on the LCD screen to see these features. ---------- LCD SCREEN 6D: 1,040,000 dots, non-articulating & no touch screen features 6D Mark II: 1,040,000 dots, fully-articulating touch-screen I love unique vantage points and try to utilize them as often as I can, especially for getting-ready and dance photos. I routinely hover over the shoulder of hair and makeup artists to get POV photos, and when the dance floor is crammed I put my camera overhead and point it downwards to get a wide-angle, top-down view of people. Both of these caused me to either A: literally be on my tippy-toes while looking through the viewfinder with my chest against the hair and makeup artist, or B: raise my hand in the air on a dance floor and hope for the best -- because I literally could not see what I was shooting. If I had a dollar for every missed focus dance-floor shot I got while doing this I would be a very rich man. The articulating screen on the 6D Mark II eliminates these problems for me. I no longer have to say, "Im going to be right behind you and over your shoulder for a few shots, so dont backup..." Instead I can hold the camera out at arms length and articulate the screen for an easy-to-see live view. And it has eliminated missed focus shots on the dance floor now that I can accurate aim at subjects and no longer have to throw hail-Marys while hoping for the best. I use a Glidecam for real-estate videos and the articulating screen has proven to be a huge convenience for that as well. Just like the dance floor scenario, I used to flip my Glidecam upside down for sweeping ground shots and also to glide closely over furniture and would have to hope for the best because I was unable to see what I was filming. Now I can articulate the screen to face upwards and see exactly what what is being recorded while the camera is down by the floor and Im standing upright. ---------- VIDEO I hate it when my wife says were having pizza for dinner, and when I get home from work I see a hot mess of cheese that originated from the freezer at Walmart. Imagine the disappointment I feel every time that happens and you will understand how underwhelming and disappointing the 6D Mark II video capabilities are. I like shooting at 60fps because it allows me to slow the footage down 50% in post and get silky-smooth slow motion. With the 6D I was forced to choose 1280x720 in order to shoot at 60fps because 1920x1080 had a maximum frame rate of only 30fps. Now with the 6D Mark II I can shoot in 1920x1080 at 60fps, which is a slight improvement. One thing I absolutely could not stand about the 6D was the fact that I needed to manually focus while recording video. Im not good at it, and practice has not made me any better. Anything under f/8 with a moving subject would result in footage where 50% is kinda-sorta in focus, and the other 50% is me trying to get the subject in focus. In other words, it was like looking through the eyes of a heavily intoxicated individual. Some people are very talented and can shoot at f/2 while keeping their subject within the depth of field -- always making manual micro-adjustments to the focus ring as they move. Im certainly not one of those people. Therefore the new dual-pixel continuous AF is a very welcomed feature. I shot video of my 5 year old son riding his bike today at f/1.4 with a Sigma 35mm f/1.4 Art lens, and it was glorious! The 45 cross-type AF points kept him in focus the entire time. It didnt matter if he was riding at a moderate taking-it-easy kind of speed or pedaling as fast as he could, there was absolutely no indication of focusing lag. It was if the continuous drive system was proactive rather than reactive, successfully anticipating where he was going to go next. I was very impressed! Other than those two points, the color rendition for all profiles is still the same, and ISO performance is regretfully not much improved. ---------- MORE ON AUTO-FOCUS 6D: 11 AF points, cross-type limited to center point only. 6D Mark II: 45 points, all cross type. Difference: HUGE! If youre like me and rely on auto-focus for 99.99% of all pictures you take, you may have cursed Canons 6D quite a few times when peripheral AF points failed to lock while the center AF point locked on just about everything -- even under the dim light of a full moon on a cloudy night. If there is one thing I consistently cursed about, it was the need to always lock focus with the trusted center and then recompose for the rule of thirds. This was especially hard during weddings when people were constantly moving during getting-ready photos. I would be a rich man if I had a dollar for every time I locked focus and recomposed only to have my subject move out of focus while shooting between f/1.2 and f/2.8. Take the 6Ds over-competent center AF point and multiply it by 45. Thats what the 6D Mark II is essentially equipped with. I can lock onto a dim star at night with any one of the 45 focus points. Dimly lit churches and dark dance floors are now a walk in the park. After so many years of locking focus and recomposing, its actually quite hard to break that habit when you have an auto-focus system that is abundantly capable with more than just the center point. One thing that baffles, though, me is Canons decision to place all 45 AF points within the same area that the 6Ds 11 AF points are located. While the overall auto-focus ability has been put on steroids, there is unfortunately no increase in AF coverage across the frame. ---------- IMAGE QUALITY As you can see from my sample images, the image quality of the 6D Mark II is astounding. I cant say that the increase in megapixels from 20.2 to 26.2 is a difference between night and day, because its not. Overall it equates to a slightly noticeable increase in detail when an image is cropped, but thats about it. ---------- FINAL WORD You will inevitably come across a plethora of professional photographers who claim that the 6D and 6D Mark II are not worthy of being considered professional grade cameras, and therefore should never be used for a wedding or paid work. But I have to disagree. Having shot with the 5D Mark III for quite some time, I sold them and opted for 6D bodies because the image quality was essentially identical, ISO performance was essentially identical, and the 6D did a better job at focusing in low light conditions. Do not let anyone tell you that the 6D or 6D Mark II are not worthy, because they are! I fully plan on replacing all of my 6D bodies with 6D Mark II bodies. ---------- Note: The 6D Mark II camera, just like its predecessor, is only compatible with Canon EF lenses and Sigma DG lenses. It is not compatible with Canon EF-S or Sigma DC lenses. If this is your first full frame camera and you have only EF-S lenses, you will need to make an additional purchase of new lenses. Addition**** DYNAMIC RANGE: When I originally posted this review, it was brought to my attention that I had forgotten about Dynamic Range. Which is fitting when taking into consideration that Canon forgot about it too. White and black clipping is still a problem when it comes to images that have a lot of inherent contrast. The 6D Mark II spec sheet touts it as having a greater pixel size and pitch than the 6D, which should more than just theoretically translate to an increase in dynamic range. But unfortunately -- in this case -- a hypothetical increase is all that we get because it just doesnt exist. Anything beyond an EV +2 push and youll have an unusable image, regardless of how much you play with the tone sliders.

Im a professional photographer with 25 years experience and have been using Canon 6Ds in my business since they were released. In the full frame world, I progressed from 5D to 5D MK II and then to the 6D. When the 6D Mark II was released, there was a large outcry against the 6D Mark IIs sensor which gave me pause. I downloaded sample RAW files, processed them as I would in my business and evaluated them. While I understand the complaints regarding the sensor, I do not feel it is an issue for me sufficient to justify switching to another brand or spending 65% more for 5D Mark IVs. Over the past week, I have been testing two 6D Mark II bodies to replace my 6Ds which are heavily used and ready for replacement. Thus far, I am more than pleased with the camera. It is more capable in almost every way than a 6D and the sensor is at least as capable as the 6D while rendering greater detail. I am confident that I will be replacing my two 6Ds with the 6D Mark IIs I am testing. It is likely that anyone successfully using a Canon 6D now will find the 6D Mark II to be an important upgrade. It is fully capable of producing professional quality images on a par with any full frame competitor.

Coming from a EOS Rebel T6s, this is my first full frame camera. I am beyond impressed with both the camera, and the quality of the photos it produces. I bought this with the included 24-105 L kit lens. But used mostly with my 70-200L 2.8 and 100-400L F4 for nature photography. Its a great camera, and I really cant find many flaws with it worth mentioning. I use it often for astrophotography with my Celestron NexStar 8SE. See included photo. The results are stunning. Best addition to the camera was the Canon extended battery grip for long shooting without having to worry about battery life. Overall, a great purchase.

This is a big step up for me coming from a Rebel. Previously I was using at full frame Tamron lens with my Rebel, it was better than a kit lens but still did not perform too well. Once I got 6D MII the lens performed much better. Ive been taking pictures non-stop. It inspired me to learn more about photography. Some reviews highlight the lack of 4K in video mode. Im mostly interesting in still pictures so this it is not a problem for me. The low light performance is great (again Im comparing to the Rebel Ive had for a several years). Electronic level view is awesome. Previously my pictures were crooked, now I have a chance to fix it before taking a shot. Canon wireless capabilities is a nice feature. I can transfer pictures to my phone immediately if I want to post it somewhere immediately. NFS + adhoc wifi works every time

Some of the reviews had me questioning if I should upgrade... Im so glad I ignored them!! If you love your 6D - you will DIE and go to HEAVEN over the 6D mark ii. Literally everything is better. The articulating screen is a game changer. How have I survived without it so far?! The low light capabilities are OUT OF THIS WORLD! Im so so happy I upgraded to the 6d mark ii!! I would 100% recommend it! The more I use it, the more I love it. It has everything I loved about my 6D, plus more.

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. I waited for a little over two months to write this review. I got it at the time when the battery grip was included (a great deal), and I purchased an extra battery to fill the grip with. My first trip I went to several parks nearby to get a feel for it, then went to Yellowstone National Park for five days. Pictures came out incredibly sharp. The 24-105 is a sharp camera lens, wonderful for wide angle, but not Ultra Wide (UW) as the 16-35mm or 17-40mm (looking at getting this next). 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 dont 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 Im not shooting sports, this would probably do animal shots "ok" but Id 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. Video: For video, the 5D MKIV is slightly better, but not word breaking. Canons 6D MkII got a bit of a bad reputation for Canon being lazy on the drivers. Well, I dont disagree, but there are enough features, and its a camera that some pros keep as a backup to their 1DX or 5D MkIVs. I cant attest to the video functions as I primarily purchased for stills. Overall, its been a fantastic camera. Super happy with it!

Im going to write a short review for others like me who own the 6D and are considering upgrading. When the original 6D was released, we were all pleasantly surprised to find that the image quality was on par if not a little better than the professionally designated 5D Mark III. Then last year Canon released the fantastic 5D Mark IV with a vast improvement in image quality over the Mark III and the 6D. Many of us hoped that the 6D Mark II would have a similar jump. Canon chose instead to keep the 6D Mark IIs image quality essentially comparable to the original, with a decent bump in resolution. While this is disappointing, it does not make this a bad camera. Canon did make some welcome improvements. The 6D Mark II has everything that I had come to love about my original 6D with a vastly improved focusing system. I wanted a faster 6D and thats exactly what I got, plus a score of new features like the articulating touch screen and everything else you can read about above. Some bloggers may say that this camera has terrible image quality, even worse than its predecessor. I refute this claim and say that it is just as good and absolutely better in some circumstances. At base ISO it feels like essentially the same image quality, and as the ISO goes up there is a clear improvement over the original. It maintains the small and spunky form that you are used to, and if anything feels a little better in my hands. The viewfinder is probably my favorite area of improvement, with the updated system that you can find in recent DSLRs since at least the 7D Mark II. My final advice is not to rely on near gear to take great pictures. Get out there and shoot!

If youre like me and have a lot tied up in high quality Canon glass, the EOS 6D Mark II with its full frame CMOS sensor is the logical place to step in and unlock the short end focal length of your lenses. My 17-40 f4L is now a true 17mm at its wide end and it looks fantastic in the viewfinder. My 28-300mm f3.5-5.6L IS is now vastly more usable indoors than on the 1.6X crop sensor SLRs, which rendered its short end a 45mm instead. Feature-wise, the EOS 6D Mark II is very comparable to the current crop of xxD series Canon SLRs. Canon down graded the shutter from 1/8000 found on the 80D to 1/4000, and cut top flash sync to 1/180th instead of the 1/250th found on the 80D. This would have been an ideal time to at least match those specs found on the more budget friendly Canon SLRs. I still dont find those specs to be deal breakers, especially in a body that offers a full frame sensor at this price point. It is in all ways an improvement over its predecessor, the 6D. The EOS 6D Mark II gets panned in some circles (mostly professional) for not living up to the performance hype of more costly Canon pro bodies. In honesty I dont think Canon necessarily intended it to replace bodies in its high end (and high cost!) professional line. However if youre a hobbyist or advanced amateur looking to unlock the potential of a full frame CMOS sensor, this is one to consider. Built-in GPS, Bluetooth, weather sealed body and more, help make this a keeper.

Hi, My name is Lance and often times when I read reviews I never know how much merit to give them because I dont know who is the reviewer. Well. I am a senior getting an undergraduate degree in college. I have a high GPA and I am extremely involved. I say this so you know I am a reputable source. This camera is much nicer then my previous Canon Rebel t3i. I wanted something around 1500 to shoot video and photos at high-quality resolutions. This camera does that. My biggest issues were the focus points. After I bought it I realized that I really could not live with how the focus points were set up. There are a lot of other cameras out there and some of them now knowing how focus points covering the whole screen. I went with Canon because I have always used a cannon. With this being a Full frame camera I was going to need new lenses anyway. This camera is not worth it unless every picture you take you to put the subject in the center otherwise you will end up with out of focus pictures. I guess my conclusion is that it seems like Cannon is not innovating new technology as much as other brands are. I dont mean any disrespect but they put the autofocus system from the 80 D with an APC sensor into the 6D mark II which is a full frame. All the focus points really are in the center. it is a real bummer. I decided to send the camera back and that cost me 80$. I am really disappointed that I was not sent a label with postage paid for. They should be able to do better than that on an 1800 dollar camera. Amazon and cannon, Im disappointed in you both. :(

I have loved my Canon 6D for years. I have tried other Canon bodies, but always seem to come back to the 6D. Its a perfect fit for my newborn/infant photography and I loved everything about it, except the auto focus! The 6D Mark ii has been amazing, it has everything I loved about my 6D but they finally fixed the auto focus issues! It still preforms great in all lighting, is lightweight. Full frame and a great camera! I love everything about it and I would buy it over and over. So glad I took the plunge to upgrade when it came out!
