The 5D mk III seems to be better in most departments (performance wise, not just spec wise) compared to the D800 except in two areas: sensor resolution and low ISO noise performance. [/quote]
I highly doubt that, different cameras for different purposes.

I agree that spec wise, the D600 appears more complete. How they both perform in various areas will have to be tested yet. I think the 6D may just have a better AF system than just looking at the AF point specs.[/quote]
At the same price as the D600 the buyer begins to look at the spec. And here the D600 outperforms the 6D by a wide margin:
- AF system (39 point vs. 11 point)
- frame rate (5.5 vs 4.5 FPS)
- megapixel count (24.3 vs 20.3)
- DR (14 stop + vs 11 stop)
- artificial horizon (the D600 has it)
- Nikon's 100% VF display is much better than Canon's
- intervalometer (D600 has it)
- 150000 vs 100000 frame shutter
- dual card slots (Nikon) versus single
- clean HDMI video (Nikon) vs none
- internal flash vs. no flash
and so on.
The D600 looks like a much better specified camera, apart from those two missing features (GPS and WiFi).
Sorry, but if I were a Canon user I would be very very dissapointed.
best regards
