#CANON 5D MARK III VS 6D WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY MANUAL#
You'll need to get accustomed to manual focus – or learn meditative breathing as you desperately try to lock focus on your moving subject. Even with high end L-series Canon glass, you're going to struggle to lock focus in anything less than broad daylight on the center autofocus point. It's a double whammy, because the large sensor and fast lens selection makes you want to shoot wide, wide open – but when you miss focus at f/1.2 on a full frame sensor, it really shows. That's right – autofocus is the achilles heel of the Mark II. but the Canon 5d Mark II has the most maddening autofocus system of any modern Canon DSLR. So why can't I give this camera the Shark and Palm seal of approval? It's inexpensive, it has gorgeous image quality, the RAWs have impressive dynamic range. That's the magic of this camera: anything you photograph is going to look gorgeous. looks cinematic enough to be a still from a feature film. The composition is thoughtless, the camera was set to aperture priority mode, and yet it. Take a look at the below snap – I quickly grabbed this image while walking backwards. I often write about the ineffable character of imaging technology on this magazine – after all, in the world of aesthetics, you can't discount the subtleties – but the Mark II is firmly distinct in its visual flavor. Isolating your subject is effortless, and focus seems to fall off in a filmic, milky gradient. Thanks to the massive sensor, bokeh lovers will be in heaven – even an f/2.8 lens can look dramatically shallow. The sheer detail capture by the sensor is head-spinning, and it's difficult not to spend hours pixel peeping in Lightroom just to gawk over it. The 5D Mark III does manage to beat the 6D in a lot of different categories, but it also comes with a significantly heavier price-tag too. The Mark II is a power house of image quality. Conclusion: Canon 6D vs 5D Mark III Although there are a lot of clear differences between the full frame 5D Mark III and the 6D, there’s no one-size-fits-all winner or best pick to buy. There's a reason this camera has stayed relevant over 10 years and countless successors: it gets results.
