However I sold it as soon that I bought the 6D as anything below f/2.8 was not convincing me at all especially from mid of the picture until the corner. Also the AF was not that precise and a bit tricky sometimes.

Not that precise?  I know my 50mm 1.4 misses the focus intermittantly.  Is this a trait of the lens?  I just thought I was doing something wrong.  I was using a single focus point but planned on using all the focus points for future shots (and hoping nothing is closer than the subject).
