New here they go for $1250, he offered me his for $750.  I'm not in the US so a canon refurb is not an option.  I've decided to keep my 80D, I've never had a need for 2 bodies so maybe down the ...

I found the 17-55 very dissapointing and.not worthy of hype it gets here.

What makes pick the 6D over the 80D?

24mm stm, 35mm f2 non IS, 50mm stm, 100mm f2 macro non L I never use the 24mm, it's a nice lens and all just not a focal length I enjoy or find useful. I rarely use my 50mm as I find it too zoomed ...

Ya, I know what you mean. I'd eventually want some sort of walkabout zoom as well which adds an extra chunk of $$$.

Great input from everyone, thanks!  Think I'll stick with my 80D!

6D original. I rarely use the flippy touch screen on my 80D. I'm fine with the 6D focus points. I think I would miss the fps on my 80D though, but that's about it.

A friend of mine has offered to sell me his 6D for a fair price. However, I'd have to sell my 80D to fund the 6D. I'm wondering if it's worth it. I have 3 EF lenses, 50mm stm, 35mm f2 non IS, 100mm ...

What lens are you using? Could the sound be the lens focusing?

I used, and still use my 1100D for vacations. It's nice and small, simple and light and I like the IQ. I picked up and 80D and 18-135 stm lens for the video. DPAF is awesome and would 100% agree.to ...

I only know this one...but seems pretty $$ to me https://www.amazon.ca/Professor-Kobres-Lightscoop-Standard-Version/dp/B0017LNHY2

In desperation I've used a business card held directly infront of the on-board flash to bounce off the roof. Never tried a diffuser...one came with my 430EXiii...I'll have to give it a go.

For kids indoors I found a zpeedlight more effective than a fast lens.

I believe so

I find the difference in 250mm vs 300mm to be pretty small so why spend $ to duplicate a range you pretty much have covered already.

Agree, for the price it's hard to beat and makes it lots easier to take the dslr with you. Just wish we could take advantage of the canon refurb here.

It's nice and small and makes my 80D easy to drag around...but I don't find the iq any better than my 18-135 stm...

I've done a fair bit if travel in eastern Europe. The first few times I took a 35mmf2 and found I rarely used it. Now my travel kit is an 18-135 and 10-18. As Kari said, the 18-135 coveres most ...

Totally agree with this. I've done it on my last few trips to Russia. The only draw back is that books can get heavy for the trip home.

I've been using a 35mm f2 for indoor baby shots and am pleased with the results
