Hi there!

I can buy a Canon 6D with 190.000 actuations for €180. I know the MTBF is 150.000. Is this a good deal?
Right now I have a Canon 700D with the kit lens, the 10-18 IS STM and a EF 35mm F/2 (the non stabilized version). I was planning to use the 35 with the 6D; I am a father of a small child, and low light performance is critical Besides, I believe a 35mm lens on a full frame body would allow my shots to breathe.

All opinions are welcome!

Hi there!

I have a 700D, and installed the 4K raw video recording; lossless compression experiment. I have some questions:

- If I choose Movie crop mode (600D movie crop-mode), my maximum resolution is 1800x1012 with 4.66 crop; choosing centered 5x zoom mode I am able to get 2000x852 2.35:1 for about 20 seconds. Both modes avoid aliasing, correct?

-I have the 10-18mm STM, so this means I have the equivalent of 10x4,66=46,6mm in the first case, is this right?

- When I choose either of the crop modes do I lose light gathering capability? i.e., since I'm recording from a smaller portion of the sensor, does this mean I'll have more noise?

- When I choose the 5x zoom mode and I override the slow correct framing with the half-shutter, and I try to change my shutter speed the Canon menu appears and show 1/80 of a second, for example, while the ML menu shows at the same time 1/49 of the second. Is this normal? It's the ML reading I should trust, right?

Thank you for your attention!
