Canon eos 6d

I´m in a process of updating my exciting camera, the 7D to a full frame DSLR. I have been holding off for the 6D to arrive, but after reading this: http://www.cinema5d.com/news/?p=13402#more-13402 I´m not sure about this camera any more!
Looks like it´s major issues with moire and aliasing when watching the vimeo video. The test was made with a pre-release camera so hopefully things have changed before they released it.
I will wait and see for more reviews before I make any purchase. Maybe put another $1.5K and go for the 5D mk III instead?

I would say yes. I was reading about it also, and there were more issues than the savings granted.

In fact, I may even get the 5d2 first at its now low price, but that is also because I love the m2's form factor.

BTW the 5d mk 3 will get uncompressed hdmi output with a firmware upgrade april next year. As I understand it it will be a clean 4:2:2 8 bit stream. Hooking up a Nano flash or Hyperdeck Shuttle 2, will certainly make this a killer regarding video quality!

The moire in the telephone wires and the brick wall from the 6D is really annoying!



Full frame shootout

5d3 is a pretty slick cam. I still have the mark ii, but thinking about upgrading.

I kept both the MK II and MK III. MKII is now my backup body.

These quick and dirty tests are pretty worthless. Before jumping to any conclusion, I would like to know what the settings are or were regarding sharpness, contrast, Satruration/color, etc.. (most likely at default as the guy writes that they "didn't have much time and he can't remember if they even looked at that" - see text under video description) It seems every Tom, Dick and Harry are pretending to be experts when they really aren't and are spewing totally useless information in the process. I know for a fact that by changing certain settings we can remove moire even on a T2i! (Thanks to Jason that has been thoroughly testing this stuff in depth) - So I would not base any opinion on some "run and gun" guy(s) that really don't seem to know what they are doing. Just my take and opinion.
