Canon 6D or Canon 5D Mark ii
#22
I have full frame lenses more than capable of portraits.

 

Actually the thing that is pushing me towards full frame is pixel density.  The DLA for the 70D is f/6.6.  Since I do a lot of outdoor photography often f/8 or higher is my preference.  Also macros are nice to do at f/11 or f/16 with a flash.  The DLA for the 6D is f/10.5 which is a lot more versatile.  Another aspect about pixel density, may just be my own perception.  But looking at sample photos comparing higher density APS-C sensors, for instance Pentax K-5 vs. the newer higher pixel density K-3, I pretty much liked the K-5 better.  And understand the photo comparisons were intended to show the advantage of the K-3, not the K-5.  It's made me wonder if improvements we attribute to higher pixel count are not simply image processor advances, and focus system advances.

 

That said, the 70D image quality is good...but not always consistent.  Especially with exposure.  The same exact shot can vary too much in exposure.  I expect autofocus and exposure might be better handled with the full frame 6D.


I also like the smaller D70 for travel.  So basically I'm after more versatile, more consistent, and better overall IQ if I go to the 6D.
