I'm confused by the 6D, I wonder what market its after. It has a SD card slot so it's not after pro/semipro users. Wouldn't you be better off with a 5D III?
I hope Bryan will be able to shed some light on this body, because Canon have confused me (OK thats not difficult).

Id say that if you can afford the 5D3, then get a 5D3. The reason the 6D confuses me is that it's practically identical to the 5D mk2, just newer, smaller, lighter, SD-card, etc. But then it's launching a few $hundred above what the 5D2 costs new.Originally Posted by Raid

So i'm definitely interested in a TDP review, especially Bryan's noise/cloth patches which show noise vs detail (most other places like DXO just show noise as an absolute).
There's gotta be something that makes it worth the difference from the 5D2, i don't think it's the AF, maybe it's a lot more sealed than the 5D2, maybe it's the wifi/gps for those who might use it. The only thing that would make it worth more to me would be the IQ (and it'd have to be at least 5D3-level IQ to justify cutting all those other features for the price).
An awful lot of electrons were terribly inconvenienced in the making of this post.
