Canon 6D - an obsolete DSLR?

This is one of my favourite cameras of all time. Colorwise it's very close to the legendary 5D and has some "modern" features like live view, WiFi and GPS. AF is fast enough, except in live view, but OK. The imagequality is awesome and 20 MP are more than enough! I love to play with the colors and picturestyles. I think, you can see it 😉 The slightly smaller size is perfect for my small Hands. Together with the pancake-lens it's "compact" for a fullframe DSLR. It's a joy to take photos with this camera, even today.
Big thanks to ‪@thomasfransson‬ for his great picturestyles #filmiccanon

6D is one of the most underrated DSLR cameras. Colours are simply amazing….they don’t make them like this anymore.

For the latest and greatest tech chaser, sure. It is. For a photographer who is more about photography, the 6D will always be a great stills camera. I was making a living with a Nikon FM and Canon AE1 back in the 90s. I pulled off some great images. A few years ago I had a Sony A7RII. More than I needed and a battery hog. I ended up trading it in for some money and picked up an 80D to go with my 6D. I've had images accepted for jury-selected shows in recent years made with older cameras. Sony a5000, Nikon D90 (honorable mention, btw), and even an IR converted 20D. All images for the shows were either 11x14 or 12x18 matted to 16x20. I've shot in near darkness with the 6D and no flash and was able to clean the images up well in Lightroom. I'd shoot a portrait session today with the 6D and get great results.

I use mine with manual focus lenses from the 1970's and 1980's. Very satisfying....

Awesome video - love your pics, great colors! I have a few Canon DSLRs, two I use for birds and nature (the 7D markII, 1D X) and I get great SOOC shots. I also have a 5D classic and love using that with the 40mm for street and travel photography. I enjoy shooting with all three of these cameras. Thanks for sharing!

[@yesteryearcameras]

Thanks a lot😊

[@HaiTomVlog]

No camera is obsolete if you enjoy using it, right? Your pictures look great! 🤙🏼

[@yesteryearcameras]

That's right! 😉 Thanks a lot!

[@thomasfransson]

Great video! Those images are pure fire!

[@yesteryearcameras]

Thank you very much Thomas!

[@john7005]

Super duper video! ❤😊

[@yesteryearcameras]

Thank you very much! 😃

[@codyallen3729]

Well I'm convinced...big fan of my 5D and selling my Nikon DF but would love something to bridge the gap and the 6D will do just that. Really impressed these are SOOC. I will definitely be using those picture styles.

[@codyallen3729]

Which picture styles were these from Thomas? Urban film base or portra or crowdak?

[@yesteryearcameras]

Mostly filmic base and Crowdak

[@codyallen3729]

@@yesteryearcameras they look great; excited to get my 6d and try them out. I’ve never been happy with the SOOC jpgs and edited my 5d raws

[@yesteryearcameras]

@@codyallen3729 thank you very much, try it, have fun. 😊

[@ISO8Legionaire]

I've never had a camera and I just ordered a used 6D very excited to learn !

[@renees8262]

Unless I really need the tracking autofocus, this is my ride or die. Prefer it over my r6mii.

[@renees8262]

Love the feel of a DSLR and a real viewfinder. Especially when traveling.

[@SuperSuperka]

absolute trash-cam, poorest dynamic range.

[@yesteryearcameras]

?why?

[@SuperSuperka]

@@yesteryearcameras Why what? Check DXO rating for it, it has 2.5-3 stops less DR then Nikon cameras. That is how bad is its sensor

[@yesteryearcameras]

@@SuperSuperka okay... I've never checked any dxo lists, I'm not searching for the perfect camera. If I like what I see, it's ok for me. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Brando90198]

Absolute trash-comment. There’s more to a camera than reading a test chart.
