5d mk iii vs 6d in terms of sharpness using the same lens...which one is better?
In 5dm3 is there 14bit in 3.5k mode and do I need a monitor to not see purple lines on the camera screen?
In 6d is there 14 above 2.5k mode?
Not sure, but I guess there is no notable difference in sharpness between the 5d3 and the 6d.
But since the 5d3 can record at 24/25fps in higher resolutions compared to the 6d, you could achieve a more detailed image with the 5d3
Max resolution for 25fps on 6d is 2880x1200 (1:2.4 aspect ratio) or 3072x1152 (1:2.67 aspect ratio) so not as high as the 3.5K the 5d3 can do.
You can't do continuous recording on the 6d in these 2880x1200 or 3072x1152 modes in 14 bit.
You need to go down to 10/12bit for that and then you still need a fast SD card and make use of the sd_uhs module implemented in the 6d build to achieve this.
There is no normal working liveview with the correct framing in these high resolution options (both 5d3 and 6d).
You can enable a correct framing preview in Magic-lantern, but it has less fps and is lower resolution compared to the liveview you normally would have.
Not sure why your asking this, do you have on of these cameras or are you looking for one ?
Because in that case, if you want to use Magic Lantern for all the nice video options, the 5d3 is the best camera you can get, 5d3 has the most options, higher resolution in crop mode, better out of the box write speed on the CF card and more.
