This is an excellent camera for landscape and general use. I'm not going to get overly technical in this review. I just want to bring some simplified reality to this discussion. The original 6D was excellent and this camera is better. All of the griping about the dynamic range is highly overblown. If you're a skilled photographer that actually takes good photos in the field, you'll not likely have any major issues with the dynamic range. Dynamic range is a good thing but I'm currently not struggling with this camera for professional use. I was using a 5D Mark IV prior to purchasing this camera. I'm glad I made the switch even with the reduction in dynamic range. I love the smaller/lighter body and I love having the tilt screen. I also personally feel that this cameras features and overall design is more streamlined. The 5D is the Jeep of the full frame camera lineup. It's a tank that can take a beating. If you're a photojournalist shooting for National Geographic, I'd probably go with that body. I'm a landscape photographer and I just don't need that much durability. It just comes down to what you need. Don't pass on this camera just because of all the negative BS on dynamic range. This camera is a bargain and it takes excellent photos. I have no regrets for purchasing this model.

Faster FPS than I thought and lighter than I thought

I've had a 6D and recently upgraded to the 6D MkII
After 4 years with the 6D there were a few features I felt would be helpful within the Mk II. The first is the articulated screen. I've run into photo opportunities in crowds that I could not capture without an articulated screen. The Mk 2 has one of the few fully articulated screens in the business that allows you to capture images that almost no other DSLR will enable. That is a big deal.

The second is the dual pixel focusing on live view. The Canon system is the best in the business and coupled with a quality full frame sensor allows both video and still images to remain in focus which competitors systems generally do not match.

The biggest negative in the reviews involve lower dynamic range at low ISO, say between 100-300 ISO. I'm not doubting this but frankly I'm much more concerned in low light and performance at ISO of 6,400 plus. Most cameras capture beautiful images in bright light including the 6D Mk 2.

Finally the 1080 video and focusing is very good. The lack of 4K video isn't a big deal to me but it would have been great to include it. That said, the processing needed to crop and produce 4K video is pretty intense and HD video is quite good.

In closing, the 6D Mk 2 is an excellent camera for me. I typically use a Canon 24-105 L lens and a Canon 50mm 1.4 lens and obtain great results.

I purchased this camera new about 2 months ago. I am on a budget so I only used a EF 50mm 1.8 ( "Nifty Fifty") at first. I was able to get very good results but as it is a prime lens it was limiting. I just purchased a Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 USM L IS II, the pairing with these resulted in just AMAZING pictures!!!. I have done photograpy for a while now and love taking pictures of my family as they grow up. I am not a pro nor could I buy the 5D, but for my purposes I am blowen away at the results!! The game changer is the ability to shoot at high ISO and still get very clear shots...at 100 ISO they are tack sharp!!

Purchased this about a month ago as an upgrade from a T3i Rebel. Wanted to have 2 dslr’s so I wouldn’t be changing lenses on a photo outing. I am primarily interested in nature and wildlife photography. The 80d will be my primary camera with a 18-200 lens which is a great all in one. I’ll use the rebel’s with a 100-400. Still getting used to it - more buttons and some things rearranged so it takes some practice. No complaints so far. Pluses -26 megapixels, higher ISO and the AE lock in manual mode. WiFi hasn’t been used yet and probably won’t get a lot of use but is a neat feature. Still working on that. Body etc are up to Canon standards. Photo quality is excellent (as is the t3i).

Camera is a huge step up from what I had. Great entry into full frame cameras.

I'm coming from a t5 and moving to the 6D Mk II is a huge jump. I love the camera's technological features like GPS and WiFi on the camera. And the photos are incredible. I've shot with a 50mm and 85mm for some nature shots and portraits and the photos are coming out incredible. Great balance and honestly requiring little work in Lightroom.
