This is not worth getting at this point at the current pricing.

It was great before the mirrorless craze. I'd buy this at 600 bucks after taxes max. This will be right around 1k after taxes. No thanks.

What would you recommend for someone who wants to upgrade from a 60D?

call canon loyalty program, give them your current camera's serial number, you'll get 20% off your next new camera.... i'd recommend an RP (compact full frame mirrorless) and an ef-rf converter from amazon to use your current lenses

basically, you call 8664438002, press ext 2, and then speak to a person

very straightforward

How does the RP compare with this one? They are the same price on Canon's refurb website. I have a bunch of Canon glass from my film days are and have been looking to get into full frame photography again.

This 6D Mk II is still a beast and heavily used in the field or studio today. Mirrorless won't give you better IQ. Coming from the 60D your learning curve will be minimal. That and many (self included) prefer the pentaprism vf electronic vf of mirrorless. Bang for the buck, the 6D Mark is hard to ignore at it's price range. Canon Loyalty refurbs are 10% discount btw. So $800.+ for the 6D or $1700 new for a R.

I read that the 6D II and RP have the exact same sensor. A refurb through the loyalty program should get you 15% off. I'd recommend an RP with a EF-RF converter from amazon to keep your current lenses, that's what I do.

The RP's downside is the battery, it will take a few hundred shots on a full charge, which I make do with extra batteries and an extended grip. On the upside, it's much smaller and lighter, the EVF is great because you see what the sensor sees, so you're seeing a preview of the output image in the viewfinder. Also, in my 6D I, I used to focus by keeping the center point on, half pressing the shutter and moving the camera. In the RP, I can move the focus point by moving my finger on the touchscreen, a much smoother experience especially since it has over 3.5 thousand AF points.

Moved to the RP from a 6D, and the only real issues I have are (1) the touch-to-shoot keeps turning on for some reason, and (2) the camera is small, so I keep hitting the change focus point button with my thumb when my grip adjusts.

It's been a while since I've had an articulating viewfinder. It really does make a difference, and makes various shots a lot easier.

My understanding moving from the 6D ii to the RP is basically just that you lose the robustness of the build and gain the smaller form factor and access to RF glass. Its still a good camera, I just don't see the reason for someone to jump on it at this price.

The official Canon grip is actually super helpful and is easily removable if you want to go smallest possible, mbp has them for "only" $50. [mpb.com]

It'll depend on how many lens you have. If not many, move to mirrorless.

The sales person forgot to ask for my old camera's serial number and still gave me the 10% off refurb 6Dm2. LOL.

The only thing I don't like about this program is the need to use the phone. It's too easy to misspell an email address or other vital info. But fortunately it all worked out and confirmed by the email receipt. I first tried using chat at the canon online store but they asked me to call the number to talk to the upgrade program (used to be loyalty program).
