  • The low light, high ISO performance of this camera is so good that we left it set to ISO1250 and loved the results. The WiFi connection to a smartphone works brilliantly, activating Liveview and setting the phone as the viewfinder.
  • Some may miss an inbuilt flash, which on the competing Nikon D600 can control offcamera speedlights
  • For anyone hankering after the superior images produced by a full frame camera and has a bag full of Canon mount lenses the price of entry has been dramatically lowered with the EOS 6D. We recommend it without reservation, but must point out that there ar...

  • If you are most interested in stills and don't 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 we've ever seen. But if you are looking for the video prowess of...

  • Enthusiastcentric controls, Remote control via WiFi, GPS technology, High image quality
  • No flash, Lacks some connections, 97% viewfinder coverage, Limited viewfinder overlay
  • Buying Guide Best DSLR: top cameras by price and brand There's no doubt where the 20.2MP Canon EOS 6D is aimed. With some professional features stripped, you're left with a camera finely tuned to the needs of the enthusiast. The full frame sensor captures...

  • Full-frame sensor, Comparatively affordable, Great for all types of photography
  • Fixed screen, Very soft shutter button
  • Canon's EOS 6D is a great introduction into the world of full-frame photography. It's a relatively fast camera that's easy to use and its high ISO performance is stellar. Well worth considering if you're an enthusiast, but you will also need some new lens...

  Published: 2013-07-03, Author: Swapnil , review by: digit.in

  • 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...

  • 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...
