:hunf: We really need a green with envy emoticon, guess this will do.

I have the 6D, love it, would like the 7D as a second body, but 70D would do also. The Tamron 150-600 is probably the next lens I save up for.

I will enjoy the 6D as you, The Tamron 150-600 will arrive tomorrow, Has been on backorder, Excited

The 70D was designed from the bottom up around video ......... keep it.

The 6D is superior for stills as it is FF .........

I own a 70D and will be purchasing a 6D as well. I'll use them both as each has it's strong points.

Keep in mind the 70D is cheaper to buy lenses for, in good light the lens selection for the 70D is just fine. In low light the 6D will be more forgiving and the lens assortment is larger than what is really designed for the 70D.

Keep them both

For lens I have 400 L 4.5, 70-200 2.8L, tamron 24-70 2.8, tamron 90 2.8, tamron 150-600 tokina 11-16 2.8 and two kits

Your EF-S lenses will not work on the 6D.

For video, I would keep using the 70D, because it has a better video/live view hybrid AF system

I have only One EF-S 18- 55 kit

As a side note....
I crop many of my images for a 4:5 ratio. I do all of my 16x20 and less prints in house with the 3880. I get precut epson paper usually in premium luster.
The 17x22 epson precut sheets work well for my 16x20 matted prints.
This printer does excellent B&W prints on premium luster paper.

Because the printer does not handle rolls, I get precut paper. I don't want to hassle with long vertical roll cuts.

I want to show my landscape photos, what type of paper is preferred for showing? Thanks Barry

38 inches, it even says so in the manual. I've tried to print longer, but 38" is all I could get out of it. The picture stopped right at 38", although the paper was longer and not the whole image was printed.

Do you use roll paper to get 38"? Thanks Barry
