Details
The Canon EOS 6D is a full-frame 20.2MP DSLR offering exceptionally high image quality and detail while providing compatibility and convenience through its design and features. The 6D features a smaller form factor compared to other full-frame DSLRs but still integrates a large 3.0-inch 1040K-dot TFT LCD monitor for clear playback and review of your imagery. The construction of the body integrates an aluminum alloy and polycarbonate chassis within a magnesium and polycarbonate shell for durability while still maintaining a lightweight profile.
The large full-frame 20.2 megapixel CMOS sensor offers a high level of image quality with sharpness, detail and depiction of colors and tones within a scene. This sensor delivers images with a maximum resolution of 5472 x 3648 pixels with a pixel size of 6.55µm square, for greater reception of light and a higher signal-to-noise ratio. The camera features powerful DIGIC 5+ image processor and 14-bit A/D conversion, the full-frame sensor is capable of recording vivid imagery with expanded sensitivity up to ISO 102400. Full HD video recording is possible up to 1080/30p. The 6D employs an 11-point autofocus system for acquiring precise focus regardless of the shooting situation which is further enhanced by a center cross-type focus point for improved low-light focus sensitivity.
Included with camera body is the Canons EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM AF lens, it is a standard telephoto lens for supporting the use of the Movie Servo AF mode.. This lens provides a 35mm-equivalent focal length range of 38.4-168mm. The STM stepping motor is incorporated into its design to provide quick, smooth, and near silent autofocus performance. It also features Optical Image Stabilizer which helps to minimize the appearance of camera shake by up to four shutter speed stops that enables better working in difficult lighting conditions.
Built-in Wi-Fi and GPS technologies also provide extensive connectivity to the 6D. The built-in Wi-Fi capability allows you to take remote control over the 6D when used in conjunction with the Canon EOS Remote app (available for iOS and Android) as well as instantly share the images from your camera to your phone. The GPS receiver will automatically record locational data and embed this information into the metadata of your images allowing you to geotag your shots and map out where each shot was taken. The other impotant features include Compatible with SD, SDHC, and SDXC, including Ultra High Speed (UHS-I), memory cards, AV Output, HDMI C (Mini), USB 2.0 and 1800mAh Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery.
