The low-light
High-ISO performance of this camera is so good that we left it set to ISO 1250 and loved the results. The wi-fi connection to a smartphone works brilliantly.

Many of the new full-frame cameras that were announced in 2012 have been making their way into the hands of photographers in 2013. It will be interesting to see how the excellent, relatively slimmed down Canon EOS 6D fits into the overall market. On the o...

The Canon EOS 6D delivers the photo and video quality you expect from a full-frame sensor, in a well-designed and relatively lightweight body
While the camera has nice extra features, like Wi-Fi and GPS support, it's missing some basics for the price like on-camera flash, multiple card slots, and a 100 percent-coverage viewfinder
The photo quality you get from the EOS 6D makes it well worth the upgrade over a consumer APS-C model, but between this and comparable or higher-end models it's a less obvious choice.
Abstract: Wi-Fi connectivity is one of the big new features of the Canon EOS 6D. And the Canon 6D Wi-Fi feature enables you to connect your camera to an iOS (iPhone) or Android (Samsung Galaxy) device quickly once you've been through the set-up process explained in...

On paper the new Canon EOS 6D seems rather poorly specified compared to its main rival, the Nikon D600, and its big brother, the 5D Mark III, but in reality it proves to be a very capable DSLR that delivers outstanding pictures in both good and bad light...

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: In our Canon EOS 6D review, we take an in-depth look Canon's first true enthusiast level full frame DSLR , which is positioned just below the EOS 7D and above the EOS 60D in Canon's line-up.With the Canon 6D price tag at £1,799/AU$2,349/US$2,099 body only...

One crosstype AF point, JPEG sharpness, playback zoom control
Priced at £1789, it's good to finally see a new full frame body in Canon's lineup that costs under £2000. For APS-C DSLR users considering the jump up to full frame, it still represents a serious outlay when you consider EF-S lenses can't be used with...
Abstract: The Canon 6D is a 20MP full frame camera that steps up in performance from the 5D Mark II , but still offers a lower entry price than what the 5D Mark II did at its debut. For now, Canon's full frame line-up will consist of ( in order of sophistication an...
