A PDR (photography dynamic range) ranking report made by photos to photos website and believe me, reading the entire report is really very interesting. As usual, the report is full of very well capable and costly cameras. But one of the most eye-catching things in this entire report is the presence of Canon 6D(ML) with amazing dynamic range test scores, and surprisingly the PDR test score of these cameras is even better than the Fuji film GFX 50S medium format camera, not only that, you will find several other full-frame cameras below them which include Nikon Z6 Mark II, Z9, and the Sony Alpha A1.
How did they reach the top of the list since Canon DSLRs cameras are known for having less than average Dynamic Range than others in the market before the mirrorless era arrived? if you look at the report it’s really surprising how these DSLRs cameras are beating up today’s latest full-frame and medium format in the list.
magic lantern firmware Boosted the overall performance of the Canon 6D DSLR camera to the next level. As you can see, if we compare the 6D PDR with Canon 6D(ML), the DR range is boosted with increasing ISO.
We have already covered this in our previous post also that with the implementation of magic lantern firmware in Canon cameras the dynamic range is boosting up to a phenomenal level.
I am not encouraging anyone here to use the magic lantern firmware for Canon DSLR cameras to boost up their dynamic range. But it’s also important to shootout for the work done by the magiclantern.fm team, so we are able to witness the level of dynamic range coming out from these all DSLR cameras which was never possible with the original Canon made firmware.
I will just request to Canon and their team member reading this article, they must collaborate with these brilliant engineers who have modified the image and video decoding algorithms of the DSLR camera and their ability to dig out the maximum image quality possible from these old sensors. If they are able to collaborate with these guys, just think about the level of image quality we will be getting in upcoming Canon mirrorless cameras in near future.

The Canon 6D Mark II is a new arrival and its core specification won’t allow you to think twice, it is a excellent camera a big upgrade over its predecessor.
The sensor of Canon
Canon 6D was announced on September 17 2012, and after 4 + years of gap Canon announced its successor.
The new sensor inside the Canon 6D mark II camera features Dual pixel CMOS Technology, Hence the overall autofocusing is speed of the camera system increases dramatically compared to its predecessor. The dual pixel CMOS your system is specifically gets activated while shooting in live OR recording a video.
The camera also shows 6 megapixel bump in the resolution compared to its predecessor, that will sure grab more details compared to 6D (Samples Images) . Canon 6D mark 2 camera is a perfect choice for Amateur as well as professional photographers.
Introduction of DPAF
We should talk say about the auto focusing system of the camera. Canon 6D Mark II incorporates dual pixel CMOS AF Technology as well as a dedicated 45 point phase AF Module inside the camera
Keep in mind at the AF system of DSLR in canon are separated into different zones, The phase of AF systems are activated only when a photographer is using viewfinder of the camera and the dual pixel CMOS a system gets activated when a photographer captures still or video while using Liveview / display of the camera.
In traditional DSLR such as Canon 6D when a photographer switches to live view mode for shooting a still are creating a video. The contrast detect auto focusing system gets activated which is slow and sluggish. Whereas the new 6D mark 2 camera features hybrid AF system will sure going to help photographers to upgrade their experience to next level with a blazing fast auto focusing speed, thanks DPAF FF sensor inside it.
Fast shooting speed
Canon 6D mark 2 camera features 6.5 frames per second of continuous shooting speed @ of 26 megapixels. You can see a big improvement over its predecessor, Canon 6D was able to deliver 4.5 frames per second at the rate of 20 megapixels only.
Vari-Angle Display Screen
One of the big improvement that we will going to witness in the next series of 6D camera is the introduction of Vari – angle display screen in a Canon full frame DSLR first time ever.
Canon 6D mark 2 camera not only coming with very angle display screen it is also coming with touch display, the large 3 inch touch screen will going to help users to compose the best shot and select AF points with touch of an finger.
Introduction of built in Wi-Fi
Canon 6D Mark II camera also have a special features that the current generation of users usually can’t live without. The Canon 6D mark 2 camera Does have Wi-Fi built in, whereas the predecessor was able to access Wi-Fi only through optional adapter.
with the introduction of Wi-Fi inside the Canon 6D mark 2 camera canon users can shoot wirelessly or can share their images without any physical pain.
Verdict:
We recommend you to get the Canon 6D Mark II, since it features better AF system new display and more.

Sensor size difference:
 As you can see the sensor size of Canon fullframe camera vs Canon APS-C camera, large sensor will gather more light compared to the APS-C sensor resulting more details and better nosie performance.
Advance AF system inside the Canon 80D camera: Canon 80D features advance AF system compared to Canon 6D camera.
The Canon 80D uses Dual AF system – 1. Phase AF module inside the camera and 2. Dual pixel CMOS AF sensor. The Canon 80D uses Dual pixel CMOS AF Sensor and Phase AF Module with 45 Point AF (all cross type), on the other side we have Canon 6D and it features 11 Point AF system only.
The other major difference is the use of Hybrid CMOS AF sensor inside the Canon 80D camera and with the help of the Hybrid Sensor the camera can do Blazing fast AF while shooting in live-view mode or Video mode. However, since the camera uses traditional contrast detect sensor the camera uses contrast AF system while shooting in live-view or video mode.
Fast Continuous shooting speed featured by Canon 80D camera, while having more resolution and the Canon 80D features fast continuous shooting speed compared to Canon 6D camera.
 Canon 80D offers vari-angle LCD screen, Canon 6D features fixed LCD display. Better Video mode in Canon 80D camera: Canon 80D camera features Full HD video recording @ 60 frames per second on the other hand the Canon 6D is Full HD video mode is limited to 30frames per second.
The other biggest difference in the video mode of both the camera is AF speed, with the help of Dual Pixel CMOS AF technology the Canon 80D camera is able to do balzing fast AF during video mode and on the other side we have Canon 6D camera with traditional CMOS Sensor that uses slow and sluggish contrast detect AF system while recording a Video.
For sports shooter and videographers we recommend Canon 80D camera.
TIP: Best Lenses for Canon 80D DSLR
The High ISO test between the Canon 80D and Canon 6D camera clearly shows the difference between the image quality of both the camera.
High ISO Test
Canon 80D vs Canon 6D High ISO Test [ Click here to Jump on Verdict]
Canon 80D @ ISO 1600 |
Canon 6D @ ISO 1600 |
Canon 80D ISO @ ISO 6400 |
Canon 6D @ ISO 6400 |
Canon 80D @25600 |
Canon 6D @ ISO 25600  |
Image quality analysis: Starting from the ISO 25600 the difference is clearly visible, the Canon 80D image is un-usable. At ISO 6400 Canon 6D showing flawless image with super details and clarity on the other side the Canon 80D look bit fuzzy. You can look at the images of both camera at ISO 1600, Canon 6D still clearly wins. Undoubtedly Canon 6D delivers better image quality compared to Canon 80D.’
Verdict:
For still shooter who looking for image quality only we highly recommend you to get Canon 6D camera.
Spend $500 more and get a Canon 6D, It’s a is a better camera compared to Canon 80D. The bigger fullframe sensor inside the Canon 6D gives out more details compared to Canon 80D smaller sensor as you can see in the High ISO test images of both the camera. The photodiodes inside the Canon 6D camera is also bigger, since despite of having smaller sensor area the Canon 80D features 19% more pixels and due to the more pixel density the light gathering capability of every single pixel drops dramatically.

“My inspiration for photography has always been a desire to capture something spectacular, something unusual, and something unique. This drives me to stand in the path of a violent tornado or in the middle of intense lightning storms, to stay up all night under the stars exposing the hidden Milky Way, or to drive 800 miles in a day in search of something breathtaking…..Jeff Boyce”
Jeff Boyce used following equipments to create the stunning time-lapse – Canon 6D | Rokinon 14mm f/2.8 | Rokinon 24mm f/1.4, | Tamron 24-70mm f/2.8 | Tamron 70-300 f/4.5-5.6 | Canon 50mm f/1.8
