Canon EOS 6D DSLR Camera with 24-105mm f/4L and 70-30mm Lenses USA

20.2 Megapixel Full-Frame CMOS Sensor, 14-Bit A/D Conversion, DIGIC 5+ Image Processor

The large full-frame 20.2 megapixel CMOS sensor offers a high level of image quality with attention given to sharpness, detail, anddepiction of colors and tones within a scene. Due to increased information and detail, a larger sensor is capable of producinggreater visual depth and smoother gradients and tonal transitions. Additionally, a large sensor provides more leeway to control theplane of focus and apply selective focus techniques.

This sensor delivers images with a maximum resolution of 5472 x 3648 pixels, with a pixel size of 6.55 m square, for greaterreception of light and a lower signal-to-noise ratio. This pixel structure works in close collaboration with the DIGIC 5+ imageprocessor, and its 14-bit A/D conversion, to produce a native sensitivity range of ISO 100-25600, which can be further expanded toISO 50-102400.

In addition to contributing to the low-light sensitivity, the DIGIC 5+ processor also delivers overall speed and power to the 6Dand utilizes dual 4-channel A/D converter front-end processing circuits for expedited conversion of both JPEG and RAW file formats.This enables a maximum continuous shooting rate of 4.5 full resolution frames-per-second as well as greater noise reduction whenworking at higher ISOs. The DIGIC 5+ processor also provides real-time compensation for chromatic aberration when working with bothstill and moving imagery.

11-Point Autofocus System

The 6D integrates an 11-point AF system for fast and precise focusing regardless of your subject matter or working situation. These11 points provide even coverage across the entire frame while a more refined center cross-type point with EV -3 sensitivityprovides more efficient, accurate low-light focusing. One-shot AF, AI Servo AF, and AI Focus AF are all available depending onone's needs, and furthermore the AI Servo mode is customizable in regard to focus tracking, acceleration, and decelerationsensitivities, as well as 1st or 2nd image priority adjustments. Lens data can also be entered and customized within the camera forgreater focus refinement when working with wide-angle or telephoto lenses.

Also contributing to sharp focus, the 6D incorporates a large, bright pentaprism viewfinder with 21mm eye point and 97% framecoverage for clear viewing of the scene. This construction greatly benefits the manual focusing capabilities, as well as generallow-light composition.

iFCL 63-Zone Dual Layer Metering Sensor

An intelligent metering system works in conjunction with the autofocus system and independently analyzes focus, color, andluminance within the scene for the most precise exposure settings possible. The 63 zones cover the entire image area with greatdetail and the dual-layer design permits a wider sensitivity to different wavelengths of light.

The dual layers are split into a red/green channel and a blue/green channel; which counters the red light sensitivity biaselectronic sensors inherently have. A series of algorithms are employed to combine data received from both layers, with theresulting exposure reading being extremely accurate regardless of the shooting conditions.

This metering system employs evaluative, center-weighted, and spot metering methods to determine exposure, as well as allowing fora +/- 5 EV exposure compensation for greater manipulation of the determined exposure setting.

EOS HD Video

Full HD video recording is supported in multiple formats, including 1080/30p, 24p, 25p; 720/60p, 50p; 480/60p, 50p. While recordingvideo, a 4GB automatic file partition is employed in order to gain longer continuous recording times, up to 29 minutes 59 seconds.Both All I-frame (requires UHS-I memory card) and IPB compressions are supported as well as the standard H.264/MPEG-4 AVC codec.Embedding the time code is also possible for greater convenience when recording with multiple cameras.

Video performance is further enhanced with the ability to manually adjust your exposure settings and audio levels; exposure can beadjusted using both aperture and shutter speed variables, and sound can be managed through a 64-level volume control. Additionally,an external stereo microphone can be used and is connected through the 3.5mm microphone terminal.

The DIGIC 5+ processor also dramatically improves video response times and helps to reduce color artifacts, aberrations, and moirwhile providing the ability to record with sensitivities up to ISO 25600 in H mode.

Built-In Wi-Fi and GPS

Built-in Wi-Fi and GPS technologies enable highly functional connectivity with other devices, including the ability to instantlyshare imagery from your camera and geotag your photographs.

Exposure settings can be controlled remotely from your smartphone when using Canon's proprietary iOS and Android app, Canon EOSRemote, allowing you to make exposures and modify camera settings from a distance. You can also review imagery from your camera onyour smart device, and transfer files wirelessly. Full DNLA (Digital Living Network Alliance) compatibility is supported, whichenables you to share your images from the 6D with other household products such as HDTVs, tablets, and other Wi-Fi-enabled Canoncameras. You are also able to upload still images directly to CANON iMAGE GATEWAY, allowing you to then easily share images withsocial networking sites without the use of a computer.

The GPS receiver functions similarly and is able to record locational data (longitude, latitude, altitude, and universalcoordinated time) as EXIF data which is then embed into your image files. This then permits you to track where your images wererecorded and view your exact route traveled.

Efficient Design

The EOS 6D contains a large full-frame sensor within a compactly-sized body for greater portability without sacrificing imagequality. The body features an aluminum alloy and polycarbonate chassis with magnesium polycarbonate resin exterior for durability,as well as a shutter rated up to 100,000 cycles.

Also contributing to the efficiency of design, an Integrated Cleaning System permits internal dust removal. To counter the effectsof dust within the housing, the glass filter is cleaned through ultrasonic vibration and the dust particles are collected by anadsorbent. This unit is completely sealed from external contaminants, and the optical low-pass filter features an anti-dustfluorine coating for ease in removing more substantial dust particles.

3.0" Clear View LCD Monitor

The 3.0" Clear View TFT LCD provides high quality viewing with a 1,040,000-dot resolution and anti-reflection coating. This allowsfor sharp and clear viewing in even the brightest of conditions and displays images and videos with great detail and richness. Thedisplay also features a viewing angle up to 160 for review from the side or below.

When used in conjunction with Live View mode, a smaller display is placed over the image. Live View mode permits real-time imagereview and can also place grid lines over the image for compositional help. A built-in electronic level is available formaintaining consistent horizons or for lining up parallel lines within a scene. You can also zoom into and navigate within theimage when in Live View and use the grid lines for minute control and precision over the alignment of your photograph.

Built-In HDR and Multiple Exposure Modes

A High Dynamic Range (HDR) mode is available and allows for the creation of HDR images in-camera, reducing the time needed tomanually overlay images in post-production. When using this mode, a series of bracketed exposures are made of the same image, thenautomatically integrated into the same frame, resulting in a photograph without blown highlights or blocked up shadows and a longmiddle range of tones. This mode is especially useful when photographing scenes with a great deal of contrast.

Multiple exposures are also possible in-camera and up to 9 exposures can be recorded onto a single file using 2 distinct settingsfor control. When in Additive mode, this closely resembles making multiple exposures on film and layers each exposure; manualexposure compensation is required. Average mode layers the images and automatically compensates for the final exposure, eliminatingthe unintended possibility of gross under or overexposure. Multiple exposures can be recorded in either JPEG or RAW formats, andfurthermore you can utilize an existing RAW image as a starting point from which to layer subsequent images onto, which can then bemanipulated in real time on the LCD.

Scene Intelligent Auto and Special Scene modes

Scene Intelligent Auto mode incorporates a number of Canon's automatic exposure technology together in order to output awell-refined exposure. Picture Style Auto, Automatic Lighting Optimizer, Automatic White Balance, Autofocus, and Automatic Exposureare all employed to intelligently analyze the scene at hand and produce the most effective exposure settings to clearly render yoursubject matter.

Special Scene modes also help to enhance your imagery by applying a system of corrections for use in more difficult lightingsituations. Handheld Night Scene automatically captures four consecutive exposures, at shutter speeds fast enough to handhold, andlayers them into a single frame. This allows you to effectively record images in darker situations without the need of a tripod orstabilization device. HDR Backlight Control works in the same manner and records a series of exposures at different values toensure highlight and shadow values are not lost. These under and over-exposed images are blended to create a final image with awider dynamic range.
