I travel all over and have a fascination with waterfalls, oceans, and basically anything pertaining to water and nature.. I take photo's for several magazine companies, as well as several internet advertisements ,

Launched in June 2017, the EOS 6D Mark II is Canon’s latest semi-pro DSLR, aimed at enthusiasts looking to dip their toes in to full- frame photography, or pros after a more affordable second body.

Very good full frame camera. Equals EOS 5D III in performance.Very good low light performance and accurate auto focus. I have used it for wildlife photography with excellent results.Its light in weight and this helps me in hand holding when I mate it with EF 300mm F/2.8 L II lens.

Canon 6D Mark II moves forward, but still lags behind the competition

Articulating touchscreen; Dual Pixel Autofocus in live view; Fast; 45-point viewfinder autofocus; Good high ISO performance; 6.5 fps continuous shooting

No 4K video; No advanced video settings; Limited base ISO dynamic range; 2 fps bursts with continuous AF in live view

Thanks to the relatively affordable price of the Canon EOS 6D Mark II, it's easier than ever for photographers to move into a full-frame DSLR.

Touch Screen; Fully articulated LCD; Solid battery life; Improved AF system; Faster-than-average Live View and movie AF

No 4K video; Limited AF point coverage in viewfinder; Single SD card slot; UHS-1 speed support only; Does not support EF-S lenses

The original Canon EOS 6D broke new ground in full-frame pricing when it launched in 2012 for around $2,100. Its successor, the EOS 6D Mark II, debuts at $1,999 in a body-only configuration, placing it on par with Nikon's midrange full-frame model, the D750, and signficantly more than Sony's full-frame mirrorless option, the $1,600 Alpha 7 II, both of which have earned Editors' Choice marks. The 6D Mark II offers some solid upgrades over the original model, including a better autofocus system for both stills and video, more resolution, and a vari-angle touch LCD. But image quality doesn't match up with the Nikon and Sony options. Design The 6D Mark II ($1,399.00 at Amazon) is similar in size and weight to the original 6D. It's compact for a full-frame body, measuring 4.4 by 5.7 by 2.9 inches (HWD) and weighing 1.7 pounds without a lens. Like most SLRs, it's finished in matte black, with a rubberized covering that makes it more comfortable to grip. The viewfinder is a glass pentapr...

The Canon EOS 6D Mark II improves upon its predecessor with 26-megapixel resolution, improved Live View focus, and a 45-point autofocus system, but its sensor isn't as good as competing models.

Full-frame 26-megapixel image sensor; 45-point autofocus system; Dual Pixel AF in Live view; 6.5fps continuous shooting; Vari-angle LCD; Integrated Wi-Fi and GPS

More image noise than expected; Limited dynamic range for full-frame; Small AF coverage area; Video limited to 1080p; Omits built-in flash

The Canon 6D Mark II is good for landscape photography. Images are sharp, color-accurate, and mostly free of visual noise even in low light. That said, its dynamic range is somewhat limited, so you may lose some detail in high-contrast landscape shots.

Excellent overall image quality., Good build quality., Bright, sharp, fully-articulated screen., Great ergonomics.

Bulky design with heavy kit lens., Limited dynamic range.

In some respects, it's hard to tell who Canon's targeting with the EOS 6D, its "budget" full-frame camera. It's got some fairly consumer-y features and specifications. GPS? Check. Built-in Wi-Fi? Check. Single SD card slot? Check. Viewfinder with less than 100 percent coverage? Check.

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

I'm a full time wedding photographer and I have been using the Canon 6Ds for about 4 years now. In my opinion, the 6D's are the best because they are a fraction of the cost as a 5D but just as good + it's a full frame. I also prefer the 6Ds because of their color sensor.

While DSLRs fitted with APS-C sensors have always been popular with enthusiasts and consumers looking for a camera that offers a good balance between image quality and value for money, full-frame DSLRs have long been the number one choice for full-time professional photographers on account of their...
