Recently got the 6D II, still learning that it exposes quite a bit differently than the 6D.
Here's a shot from the first weekend with it.

You can't dial any MFA in with the lens, as the TC in the mix then causes the body to lock up (weird!), however the combo works REALLY well.

ontonagondave Senior Member More info | Was thinking about getting a 6d ii. Guess I'd better look at the ones you mentioned. Thank you

All good! I went from the 6DII to the A7III and now the R6 which is absolutely amazing. The RP shares the same sensor as the 6DII but being mirrorless has a much better AF coverage so might suit your needs. Even the R is a lot cheaper now and has an 5DIV sensor.

I'll throw a couple in since the 6Dii is my main box at the moment and I'm an evangelist for the 6 series.  Image hosted by forum (1082050) © drsilver [SHARE LINK] THIS IS A LOW QUALITY PREVIEW.

They do have a different mount (RF) but there’s an EF to RF mount adapter which lets you use your EF lenses on them like native.

I've used the A73 on and off for a couple years but always find myself going back to my 6D2. All the battery grips, L brackets, pinky extenders, custom button mapping and extra time in Lightroom trying to get the Canon look is just too much. Never got really comfortable with the Sony. I was going to wait for the A74 but I think I'll just bite the bullet and get the R6. Et Facta Est Lux

I was going to wait for the A74 but I think I'll just bite the bullet and get the R6. I’m sure you’ll love it if you prefer the 6D2 ergonomics. When I first tried the R6 I felt like I was using a DSLR in terms of size and how it feels, but obviously all the advantages of Mirrorless.

Feels very familiar, I think I’m gonna love it. 6D2 will stay in the travel bag as a backup though. Congrats on getting it and I'm jealous, would love to be in Singapore! Make sure to share some photos when you take some in the R6 Thread!
