Canon EOS R6 vs Nikon D800

You can play with the sliders to see the befores and the afters and if you decide to pick them up right now they are on sale or if you want to get ski...

I wanted good video as a possible option; I wanted the new generation AF system and controls etc. etc. Just all the little things that would be better about the new generation compared to the old, so I pre-ordered both a pair of D4s and D800s, the D800s from Amazon on Feb 7. While waiting for them, I canceled the D4

No qualms about the camera picture quality. However, it is cheaply built. The on/off switch snapped off and I was just a couple of months past my 1 year warranty. It had minimal use

The D800, as far as still images, one of the best in the biz. But perhaps one of the most highly anticipated features on the D800 was its 1080p HD vid...

The eye auto focus is so magical and makes portrait photography that much more freeing to create. Camera features and handling - 10/10.

And even then, they almost never take the issue seriously on the first try, meaning you have to send the camera back in for a re-repair, which takes another three-four weeks. My D800 has been in for service twice, and I still have the same auto-focus issue, so I have to send it in a third time. Overall this means I will end up being without my new camera for a total of three months since purchasing it. Be ready for a similar experience! I think this level of service is unacceptable given the price point of this camera, and things have gotten worse since they closed down the El Segundo call center recently

That said, its battery life leaves something to be desired, as you can't use it while it's charging. Also, while it can shoot at a quick 11 fps in its high-speed continuous shooting mode, it takes a long time to empty its photo buffer if you manage to fill it up. Still, if you're looking for a low-light powerhouse, this is a great option that should suit most people, thanks to its fantastic noise handling, great autofocus, and comfortable ergonomics.

would prefer to use AAs in the body also as they are obtainable in an emergency from just about anywhere. I use the included battery in the body but set the camera to always use the AAs first. The included battery is 1900mAhr whereas I can get 2800 mAhr rechargeable batteries which give more exposures although not dramatic. Now about the most important thing in any camera

If you have a big budget get the EOS R6 with an EF adapter. Sell all of the EF-S glass and invest in a quality wide to normal (or telephoto) zoom like a 24-105.

I like the one step up setting so my 200mm lens never shoots with a shutter less than 1/400. This makes it so much easier on longer length lenses and especially zooms like the 70 - 200 where you might jump around and going back into the menu is a pain to set the min shutter each time..

The thing i love about my r6 is just the color and the tones i get from. In other words, the pictures i get look the way i want it to look if you're l...

This is the reason why I stopped searching for a "good copy" of the optically superior Sigma 35mm 1.4 and settled for the more reliable Canon.

i own that lens and find it to be excellent bang for the buck.

Now, the question I'd really like to answer in this video is whether this camera is actually worth buying in 2022, because it is just about 2022 here....

The articles posted the r6 is real. It's here. It's on the table. You got the top down we're gon na go through the features you already saw, some of t...

Movie Mode: This has been around for awhile, and the D800 has some nice features with many shooting modes to choose from, such as 24 frames for that indie look. The movie features are comparable to any of the other PRO DSLRs out there just youtube it. The D800 has continuous focus and supports external mic in and does a great job with movie production.

I recently was struggling with this decision for my EOS R6, and eventually went with the EF 24-105 F4L v1. I chose this over the 24-70 due to price, as well as having the extra zoom range (which is useful for my applications). No complaints over AF speed and IQ, both of which are better than my old gear!. One note if you choose to go with the 24-105 (especially used), check for any looseness of the zoom ring rubber

The other $600 I'd invest in a couple of used fast lenses picking two of the following 35mm, 50mm 85mm. I would go 35mm and 85mm but that's my personal preference.
