I have sold the canon 24-20 V1 for this lens.
Very good considering it is not a prime lens.

In reply to:

turner72: Anyone knows the Patriot Gauntlet Node? This is a portable 2.5 HDD with Wifi and integrated battery. If the Canon 6D could store pictures additionally on such device as backup, this would be great! Any comments on this?

true, but it would cost more!

On Canon EOS 6D Hands-on Preview preview (1048 comments in total)

I m a 1dmk4 & 5dmk3 pro user.
I had a chance to try a 6d as a second camera ( borrowed from a friend ) yesterday on a wedding, after playing with it for a day.NOT BAD!
Very accurate focusing nice image quality.
It is a great camera, but, OVERPRICED as we speak.

I m not the one to say that is better than can canon or nikon, but since I own the lens for a few months now, I can assure you it is worth its price.The is rocks too.

In reply to:

Roland Karlsson: Why do DPReview even bother to mention this redundant software?

vsco keys are NOT the only ones in the market.
What about other companies as well?

In reply to:

atamola: The D3s is clearly better than this pre production D4. There is no question about that.
It's amazing. Really amazing: only 4 extra MP and 2 years later and (according to this samples) Nikon haven't figured out how to improve over the D3s.

ha ha, that is so funny!!!
You guys sound EXACTLY like the canon forum ! Nobody is satisfied :) !
What Im I doing here as a canon user? just checking out the new beast! Nice camera!!!

In reply to:

Henry M. Hertz: the real question for many is how does the D800 fares.
it looks like there is not much improvement over the D3s.

now 36 MP on a sensor will not make it easyer to shine on medium and high iso.

and spare me the downsampling crap....

i don´t buy a 36 MP camera to downsample all my images. that is plain stupid.
i buy a 36 MP camera because i want to print real big or crop the hell out of the images..... so no downsampling possible.
in fact i do nothing like that.. but that would be the reason for a 36 MP camera and it´s huge files.

if i print a maximum of A3 there is no reason for a 36MP camera and i rather go with a faster camera and less MP.

many people!

In reply to:

max metz: This Nikon needs to be pretty well on the money with this D4, Fujifilm has the x-pro1 almost at market and their new organic sensor technology waiting in the wings.

I use canons but I admire the D3s.Even more the D4.
However, I have never seen better files than the sigma on a small dslr.Im also not fond of the sigma body, I m not convinced, but the IMAGE QUALITY... more to the medium format side today !!!
