To tight a crop now much prefer original (no room for it to move )

It depends on what you want to do with the 6D. I have that combo of a 6D and a 7D2 and I love the specific capabilities of both. I use the 7D2 for sports, birding and anything where the extra focusing capabilities are a benefit. But I use my 6D for pretty much everything. I use it for portrait work, concert work, landscapes, general walk around use.
The ability of the 6D to focus in low light and its high ISO is well beyond anything the 7D2 can accomplish. So I consider it the best of both worlds with this combo.

Great deal. I'd use those for stills. I still like the faster cards for burst shooting.

Thanks for this input. This is my thinking but I would still use it in certain birding situations where low light and closeness are present.

Actually we are off to China and Thailand in a few weeks. It will be a mix of a longs days walking in Hong Kong and hot humid weather in Phuket. We are travelling light - all carry on. With the new 5D4 I was planning on getting the new 70-300 but made a U turn. I already own a 55-250 STM I purchased as light travel zoom. I just picked up an 18-55 STM and I'm taking my 7D2. That is it - nice and light. If we had a long term home base like in Costa Rica last year I would have brought the big guns.

I'm impressed with the STM line.

This was the one I was looking for. Lugano Switzerland.

I usually only do Surf or Birds. But Southern California is going nuts with blooms right now.

A few recent photos taken with my 7D2 and Sigma 150-600 Contemporary in poor light.

Thanks everyone for looking.

I have been thinking about a 6D for certain times due to the low light capabilities/IQ but then think I should just buy a second 7DmkII.

I'd get the 6D, always great to have both crop and full frame. I run my 5DIII as an everyday camera but use 7DII for birding and anything where I need speed.

Since it seems highly likely that the 6D2 will come out this year (CR Link), you may want to consider waiting a bit. If it is a baby 5D4, it may be worth it.

McNeese softball game with Houston Baptist University last Tuesday night. I hate night games and the high ISO's that are necessary.
