Is it just me, or does the 6D feel like a full frame Rebel? That's what I got from it.
I can't afford the 5D Mk III, so I've still got my eyes on the Mk II. I'd buy the 5D Mk II over the 6D any day.

You can't build it like a tank and keep the weight down  I'd say it was mostly made to be cheap, but that's just semantics, right? Taylor

Its not just you. I felt the same way when I held it compared to the 5d mark ii. 6d doesnt feel as solid. Charlie wrote in post #16412470 even if true, it's still good for photos, and in the end all that matter are results. true, but quality of the camera is still important. Would you feel comfortable taking it out in light rain if you have too? imsellingmyfoot wrote in post #16412474 The image quality and build blew my old Rebel out the water. It was like going from a base model Camry to a Ferrari... I wouldnt consider the 6d a Ferrari. More like a Lotus. 5dmark iii = ferrari, 1dx = Lambo tkbslc wrote in post #16412712 I'd say it was mostly made to be cheap, but that's just semantics, right? True!!!!

Much like GPS, WIFI, in-camera processing. I'd rather have the option to not pay for things I don't need. Depends on your POV, I suppose. Dedicated APS-c shooter. Gripped 60D, 60 2.8, 10-22, 15-85, Σ70-200 OS and a big white something or other! Plus a 5D w/28-75.
