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.

Fixed screen
Very soft shutter button
No flash

No headphone jack. Video quality not as good as the Mark III. AF system could use a few more points
Full-frame image quality, EOS Utility wireless shooting via computer has potential, view images from camera using smartphone device on location, smallest and lightest full-frame DSLR
Limited autofocus points, central-arrangement of autofocus points, just one SD card slot, no rear joystick-like control, no clean HDMI output, Wi-Fi just isn't user friendly, being forced to use Canon Image Gateway is irritating
The EOS 6D delivers the image quality, but is paired with a focus system that's a game of two halves: it's great in low-light, but lacks the extended number of AF points that we'd like to see. A partially restricted viewfinder is also a downside, while...

All things considered, the Canon EOS 6D is an excellent choice for the enthusiast and club photographer looking for a full-frame DSLR. These users will find that they have just about everything they need, and a bit more besides. It may take them a while ...

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...
Abstract: Lisa Gade reviews the Canon EOS 6D full frame DSLR camera with Canon L 24-105mm f/4 kit lens. This is Canon's most affordable full frame digital SLR camera, and it's priced similarly to the full frame entry level competition from Nikon and Sony while also...
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...

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: 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...
