    I have used only STKs for some time. They have a much longer life than the Canon units in my experience. I started using them when I shot with my 40d, moved to a 6d and the appropriate STK batteries. I buy via Amazon.

    I upgraded from a 40D for two major readons; 1: larger sensor with more resolution so I could crop deeper; 2: incredible low light abilities. On the minor side was wifi which I use often now. But the main reasons I upgraded have been satisfied. I like the 6D very much.

    I added a Canon grip to my 6D because I have big hands. It makes it feel perfect to me. I don't like a neck strap so the grip strap adds to its value for me as does the additional battery slot; it feels more industrial (sort of) like the Nikon tanks I used overseas years ago. If you're happy with most other aspects of the 6D, you might try that. Additionally, swap in a bigger card. That with two batteries will give you much longer shoot time.

    Good point on the micros; I use them in XM and other music products. Never have in photo. Will need to try that! Again, good point.

    I take 4 fast 64gb units with me wherever I go, plus an 8gb just in case. I have a 6D and have never run out of space. I agree, it would be good to take the 7d. The adjustability and night metering will be sorely missed....I also take a small MacBook Pro in my backpack so I can do initial keep/don't keep at night in the hotel. On the other hand, the cards should not be hard to find in any of those countries.

    It's a very interesting unit with many possibilities; I don't think I need that resolution yet. Though I'm very happy with my 6D and it's awesome lowlight ability, I'll watch the 5ds until it's time to upgrade. Glad Canon now tops the sensor size war for the moment; they're thinking!

    Good test shot. I didn't see any reason for the more expensive version. Simpler is better!

    It is the Fotodiox Lens Mount Adapter, Black M42 (42mm x1 thread Mount), mounts screw thread lens to EOS body. Have to remember to manually stop the lens down. I bought it to adapt an old Yashica bellows/slide copier that I bought overseas and never used. The consumer grade scanners are not acceptable; thought why not use my 6D's scanner. The Zeiss lens is excellent.

    I just got a good one through Amazon. My old Zeiss works great and infinity is there. I'll try to post when I get home....

    I like the Canon EOS 6D Digital Field Guide by Michael Corsentino.

    I put Beattie screens in my OM-1s and OM-4s. Still seem slightly dimmer tan both my old 40d and new 6d although I did put an architectural screen in the 6d. It seems brighter to these old eyes....
