I currently use Canon 80D and it's a terrific camera. However I do have the Full Frame itch and would love to try it for a while.
I have been offered an original 6D locally for around £450-£500 (I think there's a bit more room for haggling). Now I know that overall the 80D is a much better all round camera but rather than selling my 80D and buying a 6D Mkii (I really can't afford to touch the 5D models) would it be worth my while buying this 6D and keeping both cameras? This would then allow me a chance to see if FF is for me or not plus with it being cheap(ish) to begin with I could sell down the line for not much loss. I currently have 4 lenses with the Canon 10-18mm being my only EF-s lens, the rest are all Canon EF lenses so glass isn't an issue.
I don't do any video work at all just stills. Of that 80% is landscapes and astrophotography. The rest is outdoor sports (football and motorsports mainly). I have helped second shoot the very odd wedding but it's far from a profession.
