I have an Op/Tech strap that I carry on my shoulder with my camera at my side. I do like it but for hiking and such I will be using a Cotton Carrier so I do not have a loose camera at my side in case of a slip or fall.

Great job "getting the shot"!


Thanks! Noisy, but my son doesn't care. He just likes to see what he was able to do on the field.

The 7d markII would be a great camera for his interests. It can be pre-ordered now, if you did not want to wait the 7d would also work. For indoor sports or night games outdoor you might want to wait for the 7d markII as it is supposed to be able to shoot at a higher ISO.

I think what is being communicated is the 70D will out perform the 6D for sports because of the superior speed of the focus and metering. If I buy a 6D and I'm heading to the Friday night football game ........... ah ......... I'll grab one of my 70D's before I would grab the 6D .......... so long as you have a tele lens on the 70D that will open up enough so you don't push the ISO so high. I don't like to push over 800 on my 70D ......... a 6D will buy me another stop and a half on the ISO.


Yes, if one has a choice between grabbing a 6d or 70d for a sporting event the 70d makes more sense. Not everyone has more than one body to grab, so they must make do with what they have on hand. The OP is interested in landscapes and portraiture and the 6d would be the better camera for his particular interests. I was just pointing out that sports and the 6d can work.

LK, the real differences and advantages that you hear about between the two cameras my never actually appear in your real pictures.
The 6 is a stripped down semi-pro version of the 5dmkll. It's a smaller camera that when first introduced, Canon was billing it as a travel camera because of the file handling and small size and built-in wifi/gps. It also is theoretically able to focus in extremely low light.
The 70 by comparison is almost a consumer sports camera. It has a pbetter focus system and shots much faster. The 70 is closer to the 7dmkl for action than is the 6d.
What you shoot will dictate which to consider.
If you shoot only landscape, indoors and studio, then the 6 is a better choice. Don't plan on sports with it, as it has ONE cross-focus point like the 5dll.
The 70 is a much better all-around camera. Good luck. ;-)

The 6d is by no means a sport camera but to say "don't plan on sports with it" is selling it short. I purchased my 6d for my desire for landscapes but it has been used more for the sports my 3 sons participate in and has done a fair job of it. I think the OP would be quite happy with a 6d, especially for the type of shooting he does.

Don't know the size of your lens but if it is truly a "heavy lens" you probably should not be carrying it by a strap unless the strap is connected to the lens.

I don't think you are reading wrong. Both lenses were announced on September 12th.


Thanks! Thought so.

yes I have the 150-600mm "C" takes a 95mm filter
the new 150-600mm has a "S" designation and takes a 105mm filter plus has more glass in it


Wasn't the "c" lens just released at the same time as the "s" lens? Prior to yesterday did Sigma have a 150-600mm lens? Because it was just announced yesterday that Sigma was releasing the 150-600mm "C" and the 150-600mm "S" lenses.

"" is my "old" "new" sigma 150-600mm {Nikon mount} out of date?""

You already have a 150-600mm? I guess I am not reading your writing clearly.
