Canon will ship its new EOS 6D in December for $2,099 (body only) — the company’s first DSLR with built-in Wi-Fi and GPS.
The compact 1.7-pound camera will also be offered with a zoom lens for an additional $800. Although lighter than the 5D, there’s no fold-out arm for the viewfinder and no built-in flash. Users will need to rely on the SD card since there’s also no Compact Flash.
“Like the 5D Mark III (and its predecessor, the popular Mark II), the EOS 6 is a full-frame camera (meaning the CMOS image sensor is as large as a frame of 35mm film),” explains Mashable.
“The megapixel count is slightly less (20.2 MP instead of 22.3), though it’ll be tough to tell the difference,” adds the post. “The 6D also packs the relatively recent DIGIC 5+ image processor, which gives it a speedy continuous shooting rate, at 4.5 frames per second.”
The DSLR records 1080p video at 30 frames per second and 720p at 60 fps.
“For still pics, the 6D has an HDR (High Dynamic Range) mode, which captures three different exposures of the same shot and combines them for better detail and color,” notes Mashable. “There’s also a Multiple Exposure mode that lets you merge up to nine different pics into the same image, no Photoshop required.”
