Canon EOS 6D Mark II DSLR Camera with EF 24-105mm USM Lens - WiFi Enabled

Comment

After reading all the reviews, watching the negative comments about this camera, I bought it anyway. Why you may ask.? Im a canon shooter. Tried it and loved it. I own a portrait studio, shoot weddings, and do event photography. I use this camera exclusively since February 2018 and it has never let me down. What about no 4K video you ask? Its a simple explanation, I DONT SHOOT VIDEO, IM A STILL IMAGE PHOTOGRAPHER. Dispite what is being said this camera produces awesome pictures.

I got this as a backup for my 5D MIV, mostly for nature shooting but also for everything else, and I love it. The focusing speed and accuracy are comparable to the very-responsive 80D that Ill soon be selling, having decided to go completely full frame. The narrow spread of the focus points isnt ideal, but its pretty easy to accommodate for, especially when shooting static objects where you can focus and recompose. And its worlds above the original 6D. In fact, the 6D II has a bunch of new features that make it highly superior to the original. That fact compelled me to replace my existing 6D, not the least being the articulating, touch-sensitive screen, which helps me greatly in shooting macro wildlife, including venomous snakes. Ill be using it a lot for this purpose, and Im very sure the images will be even better than those from the 80D with 100mm macro (though with full-frame Ill have to get slightly closer for equivalent shots....). The increase in resolution is also an important advance, allowing for cropping without losing much sharpness (also helps with those snakes, which sometimes I dont want to approach too closely). The bodys relatively small, light dimensions are yet another plus, especially for a backup body. One reason I wanted another full-frame body is that in the field I generally have the 100-400mm mounted on the 5D MIV so that Im always ready for a bird or other wildlife shot. Having a second mounted body for landscapes, scenics and other closer images--a body thats relatively light but also has high resolution--is important in the way I do nature travel because I like to go out with two mounted bodies. I dont want the weight (or cost) of a second 5D MIV dragging me down. This works beautifully in that light. The cameras much-hyped deficiency in dynamic range isnt really evident to me in shooting landscapes and general nature, which is most of its use. I just dont see a problem, just as I often dont see smaller "sharpness" differences, as defined by that one particular MP-obsessed testing website, to be significant in the real world. For critical uses, for example when the light spread is super-wide in a landscape, Ill often opt for HDR anyway, which extends dynamic range well beyond what any camera is capable of handling. Everything else about the 6D II--responsiveness, focus speed and accuracy, beautifully quiet shutter, sharp images, touchscreen, intuitiveness, and on and on--are all important to me and a good reason for my upgrade. If youre considering going full frame from APS-C, this is probably your best (Canon) option. For anyone already shooting full frame, this body makes a fine backup.

This is my first full frame Canon and I am extremely pleased with the 6D Mark II after two months. I matched it with a Canon 24-70 F4 L and so far I am getting the excellent results I had hoped for. The high iso capability (I have taken a number of photos at 12k and 16k for testing) allows an F4 lens to meet shutter speed needs and still be very usable even at those iso levels. There are a number of other positives about this camera including battery life, the sturdy build, the lens choices, but most importantly the quality of the results. The pictures it produces are wonderful. As an amateur with some experience, this is more than meeting my requirements in finally experiencing full frame, something I had wanted to do for a long time. Canon has build an outstanding camera at a good price point for those of us wanting to try full frame. I highly recommend.

I bought this camera from KEH, but since many people come to Amazon for reviews and recommendations I feel its best to post my thoughts here. I read the rest of the reviews on Amazon of this camera after I bought it from KEH, and I felt concerned about my purchase. The dynamic range and potential noise problems in printing large images that were explained in other reviews is what really forced me to look at the images this camera produces and put it through every test I can. I come from owning the original 6D, and I still believe the original 6D is one of the best cameras a person could buy. Due to a SD card breakage in the SD card slot on the day the 6D Mark II came out it seemed like a weirdly perfect time to upgrade from my original 6D. The 6D Mark II is exactly that, an upgrade. In almost every way this camera is the perfect definition of what a Mark II should be. It improves upon almost everything that was in the original 6D. This is not a 5D Mark IV or a 1DX Mark II or a Nikon, this camera is the 6D Mark II. Canon, before ever having to compete with other companies, has to compete with themselves first. If they released a camera that could do everything, they would only release one camera. If you want 4K, spend more money, or look at other companies. If you love the original 6D, youll love this camera. Its as simple as that. Now to the dynamic range, and ISO noise issue. This is the one area I believe the 6D Mark II does not improve upon a lot, but thats definitely not saying that its worse than the original 6D. The noise and dynamic range between the original 6D and the Mark II is honestly imperceivable. Ive bracketed, underexposed, overexposed, boosted the ISO, brought down the ISO, taken the same shot over and over again with different settings trying my hardest to force this camera to produce awful images. Its just impossible. Ive printed 5x7s, 8.5x11s, 11x17s, and 13x19s which is the max paper size on my Canon Pro-100. The quality is still there, just at higher resolution. Its sharp and noise free with beautiful and correct color, from screen to print. Im not sure whats going on with the release of this camera, It almost seems as if people just want to dislike it because it doesnt have every bell and whistle that way more expensive cameras have. Its a phenomenal camera, and an amazing investment for anyone whos looking for a quality full-frame or is in love with the original 6D. (Also remember that the original 6D brand new is $1400, the 6D Mark II brand new is $2000. For an extra $600 dollars, you get SO much more, but that being said the original 6D is a prize at that price too.) I just wanted to post an honest opinion of my experience. An experience of someone who bought this camera on a whim, and then was concerned with what others were saying after the purchase. Ive push this cameras settings far and wide, and I will continue to do so for years to come because its a near-perfect Mark II of a camera I loved.

I upgraded to the Canon 6D Mark II from a Canon 80D. The main reason for this upgrade was for the better sensor and to be on a full frame format. I also purchased the Sigma 35mm 1.4 lense and it works beautifully with the 6D. If you want full frame but (like me) could not afford the 5D, this camera is just amazing for the price. If you spend that extra money on some quality lenses instead I promise you wont regret it.

I love to take pictures as a hobby. Its just something Ive always enjoyed. Sometimes people ask me to photograph an event for them, which usually I end up borrowing my friends Canon 5D Mark II cause it takes amazing photos. I used to have a Canon Rebel t5i, which was fine for what I would use it for. Well, when it was time to upgrade I naturally thought about getting the Canon Rebel T7i. My wife had recently purchased one for her work to shoot events and shes been happy with it. But instead I decided to wait a little while longer and Im so glad I did cause I was able to buy this one. REVIEW: I love this camera. I cannot say it enough. I feel like I havent really been able to test it out as I should, but from what Ive experienced this was such a great investment for me. I love taking pictures with this camera and lens. The quality of pictures Im getting is just so amazing to me. Again, Im not a pro, but this camera is just amazing to me. The lens gives such great Bokeh and makes my pictures pop so much more when at a certain distance. Most of the pictures Ive taken are personal so I cant really share those, but I am going to share a few that dont feature any faces of people. I have a road trip coming up and I cannot wait to use this during it. Hopefully, Ill be able to share more photos afterward. If you have the money to splurge a little over a Rebel, I cannot recommend doing so enough. Just do it, you wont regret it!

Ive been a Canon camera user for years. I love this latest pre-professional full frame. It has a lot of bells and whistles in a normal sized camera. Wi-Fi, professional settings, etc. The images I posted were all taken with this camera. They were edited in Affinity Photo software to enhance their color and details.

Bought this camera with the 11 - 22mm Canon lens (lens was $2,700) and camera didnt take as sharp of a picture as my Canon T3i with 10 - 24mm lens (that lens was $300). Swapped lens back and forth between the T3i and the 6D MII making sure the zoom and settings where as close as possible and the Camera just didnt take as sharp of a picture as the T3i. Decided to return the Camera and will purchase the 5D Mark IV.

I really liked the Canon 6D, but the 6D Mark II is much better. I especially like that Canon fixed the GPS issue. Now you can set GPS to shut off when the camera is off, but to automatically turn on the next time you switch the camera on, without having to navigate through a series of menus.

Not sure why I waited so long to pull the trigger on this one (probably weighed some of the negativity to heavily). Ive been wanting a full frame camera for a while, and at this price couldnt pass it up. Its a great camera - easy to use, understandable guide book, easy set up. And the focus is lightning fast and accurate. With the battery grip its a little bulky (will take some getting used too) and coupled with the canon 100-400 "L" lens the rig weighs a ton! My right arm is getting a workout - but Im smiling the whole time I shoot.
