Overview — Canon EOS 6D
Key Features — Canon EOS 6D
20.2MP Full-Frame Sensor: A 35mm full-frame CMOS sensor captures high-detail images with the shallow depth of field and low-light advantage that comes with a larger sensor area.
DIGIC 5+ Image Processor: Handles fast image processing and noise reduction, contributing to clean output across the camera's ISO range.
ISO 100–25600: A wide native ISO range gives shooters flexibility in low-light environments without switching to a separate body.
Weather-Sealed Magnesium Alloy Body: Dust and moisture resistance in a 755g frame makes the 6D one of the more portable full-frame DSLRs suitable for outdoor use.
Canon EF Lens Mount: Compatible with Canon's extensive EF lens ecosystem, giving access to a broad range of native and third-party optics.
Built-In Wi-Fi: Allows wireless image transfer to a smartphone or computer and supports remote camera control via Canon's app.
