Honeoye Lake House is located on the eastern shore of Honeoye Lake close to the New York State public boat launch. The house is tucked away on a private neighborhood drive. Plenty of parking is available in the driveway and on the road for cars or a boat trailer.
Enter this this beautiful four bedroom year round home (fully winterized with base board electric heat) through the fully enclosed cedar wood porch with two bright skylights. The porch is the game room, which has pool table and dart board to entertain your friends and kids for hours, if the days are filled with rain. Large windows and sliding doors in the living and dining areas provide scenic views of the lake. The living room offers a wood burning stove and a television set with cable, a DVD and VCR (and WIFI internet access). The dining area provides seating for 8 facing the lake. The living room has large glass sliding doors to the deck, which offers a gas grill, additional outdoor dining space for 8, and stairs to the large back lawn with 65 feet of level lake frontage. An open kitchen is well equipped and is arranged to provide a fantastic view of the outdoors as well as open up to the dining and living rooms.

Local kindergarten teachers say that the curriculum is more academic than it once was.
Dionne Nelson, a kindergarten teacher at T.R. Simmons Elementary School, said she remembers sitting for story time, playing dress up and doing cooking activities when she was a kindergarten student at T.R Simmons.
Today's kindergarteners not only recognize their ABC's but are also reading by the end of the year. Some are reading the first day they walk into class.
Nap time is old school. Computer time is in now.
Nelson said parents can prepare children for kindergarten by helping them learn their name and their parents' names, telephone number and address, colors, shapes and letters.
Rather than sitting down with a pencil and paper, she suggests using simple activities and environmental print, which can be found everywhere from road signs to the supermarket and fast food restaurants.
"While riding in the car, ask what letter Wal-mart begins with or what sound a 'w' makes. In the bathtub, get some soap crayons and have them draw a triangle on the wall," Nelson said.
Nelson recommended websites such as www.starfall.com and pbs.org as well.
She added that learning to listen is the most valuable skill of all.
"My most important thing is being able to listen and follow directions because they're going to get the other things if they can sit in their seat and listen," Nelson said.
Parents at Cordova Elementary School receive a packet of information on registration day that explains some of the changes that have occurred in kindergarten since they were in school.
"We did concentrate on the very basics of math and reading readiness. Today, there is a major focus on reading, writing and math skills," the introductory page reads.
Kindergarten teacher Sabra Brown said she keeps expectations high but reasonable for her students in the beginning.
On the first day, she is more concerned with bonding with the kids and encouraging parents to take an active part in the learning process.
"I like my parents to be creative and innovative because one child may learn practicing with pencil and paper but with another it may take the sand or markers and painting," Brown said.
Brown added that parents can help their children most by reading to them at an early age and letting them become independent as they grow.
"Sometimes parents will be surprised when I say, 'They can do that. Let her put that up or let him give me the money,'" Brown said.
Cordova's kindergarten registration packet includes other tips for helping children learn. For example, sorting M&Ms introduces kids to colors.
Cooking together gives parents an opportunity to discuss different tools of measurement and nutrition.
Children can practice saying their name and address while riding in the car or standing in line.
Parents can improve their child's language skills by not allowing him or her to speak in phrases and not finishing sentences for them.
A child will begin to recognize his name if it's written on a piece of poster board in his bedroom.
"There is nothing that we can't do together -- me, that child and those parents," Brown said.

Canon 5D Mark II, 5D Mark III, and the New 6D Face off in a Moire and Aliasing Test
If you're looking for a new full-frame camera from Canon, you've got some options now that the new Canon 6D is beginning to ship. We've already seen some samples from that camera, but it's hard to know how it compares to the other models without looking at all of them directly. Mitch from planet5D has gotten a hold of the Mark II, Mark III, and 6D simultaneously to see if the new model still exhibits some of the same issues that the Canon 5D Mark III has fixed.
Here's Mitch with the Full-Frame Shootout:
It's clear that the 6D is not going to best the 5D Mark III. Canon made sure that was the flagship of these cameras, and it's still the best-looking camera under the 1D X, which is debatably a little sharper, possibly at the cost of letting in a bit more false color. If you've been using the Mark II forever and you haven't run into anything that has bothered you considerably, I don't think the 6D will be much different. The 6D has other considerations that make it a better camera than the Mark II, like the HDMI output, the internal recording codec, etc., so all of these things would be upgrades for anyone who has been hindered by those in the past.
It may be disappointing to some that the 6D won't be as good as the Mark III, but it's clear they've put most of their energy into a few select models and will basically recycle video into the other cameras as they see fit. I would be fine shooting with the 6D, as I loved the Mark II except for the little quirks that have been improved upon (though we're still missing the headphone port). If you're not trying to shoot a lot of detailed wide shots, most of the problems you see above will be out of focus in the background. That's not to say you'll never see them, but this test was specifically designed to break the cameras, and while the Mark III came out on top, it's also $1,000 more expensive. For some people, that may be too much for a dual purpose camera, so it's good that you can weigh your options among all three models.
Johnnie Behiri, who shot some of the previous test footage, added a clip to his beta test of the 6D, and I've embedded that below. I think it's a good counterpoint to the footage above — instead of breaking the camera, it is attempting to make the camera look as good as possible at higher ISOs (800 and 1250) with 30% post sharpening and a little bit of color correction:
What did you think of the 6D? How did it compare for you to the other cameras? What did you think of it in the second clip, does that change your mind at all?

We're all here for the same reason: to better ourselves as writers, directors, cinematographers, producers, photographers... whatever our creative pursuit. Criticism is valuable as long as it is constructive, but personal attacks are grounds for deletion; you don't have to agree with us to learn something. We're all here to help each other, so thank you for adding to the conversation!
I had high hopes for the 6D. Really disappointing results.
MRGABE on 12.4.12 @ 11:32AM
not surprised. Canon is all about forcing you into their ridiculously priced products. if they made the 6D better than the 5D2, it would cannibalize the sales of the 5D3. and the 5D3 has been crippled to protect their cinema line. the 6D is a truly useless body, made just to "compete" with Nikon's D600.
Luis Fernando Soní on 12.4.12 @ 11:42AM
I was really hoping for something better. Seems like, as always with Canon, it's just another full frame market niche tactic instead of a real new and better alternative.
Swested on 12.4.12 @ 6:12PM
Is it really surprising at this point? Coming from the company that announces a highly competitive firmware upgrade for the Mk III…but decides to wait over 6 months to release it.
Definitely not surprising. But still, I don't like being laughed at…
Kendrick on 12.4.12 @ 11:53AM
It's very smart marketing by Canon….if u were selling the 6D would you match or make it better than the 5dMk3 of course not b/c that would cripple sales of the 5D3….it makes perfect sense from a salesman eye….So if u don't like the 6D shut up go out and work to save a extra $1000 and get the "real " camera…..simple as that…..I'd rather shoot with 6D than any of the crop sensor camera by Canon…..so it is a upgrade for ppl who haven't shot full frame……other than that 5D MK3 here I come!!!!
Still gonna buy the thing. It's obviously not as perfect as the MkIII, but the 6D is $300 more than the MkII, a four-nearly-five-year-old camera. Do anticipate picking up the Mosaic brand moire-eliminating filter though, if that's what everybody's worried about. Completely wanting a 2012 FF but the MkIII was just too far above what I can do right now, the 6D fills the gap beautifully.
Ollie on 01.3.13 @ 12:24AM
I've had a little bit of a look around for such a filter Bob and haven't yet found one for the 6D. Have you had any luck?
No offense, but this is simply someone point a camera at what looks to be the most run down part of this particular town. First off, its an ugly scene. Second off, half the portions of the test are not even completed. there are parts of the video where the person forget to put in text or animate the video across the screen. How can you put any stock into a test made by someone who put such little attention into the details of the test your basing your opinions on?
No camera is going to come straight out of the box and shoot perfect, thats why the skill of the camera operator is more important than the specs and brick wall tests. My 6D gets here tomorrow, and the only test I need is the reaction from my clients when they see the final videos. The opinions of people who shoot brick walls and the run down parts of town really don't factor into my decision as to what camera I should by. Sorry if that sounds harsh but it needs to be said.
These are real issues with these cameras. After owning your 6D for long enough the moire/aliasing issues WILL get on your nerves. Trust me. I wouldn't buy the 6D for this reason alone and it's the reason I ended up selling my 5D Mark II. It's unacceptable that a new camera should have these issues. Un. Acceptable.
Peter on 12.4.12 @ 3:52PM
For people for whom the 5D3 is financially out of reach, or who are just indignant about Canon's pricing, I would probably go Sony NEX. E-mount has a future, and there are good EF adapters for it now that even autofocus. Sony's implementations aren't shabby at all, the ergonomics are fine. I wouldn't buy a 1st gen lineskipper like the 6D either for primarily video use…though for stills it will beat a Rebel I suppose. I am also not a fan of MFT, I think that's a dead end both in equipment investment and practical learning.
Once YOUR work requires better quality… YOU don't need better quality work.
i absolutely agree. 4 years ago it was a big thing what the mk2 was able to do but to pay a lot of money for a camera in 2012 which makes funny stuff with patterns in the picture? i don´t know. i would go for a gh2 or 3 or spend a bit more money and go for the mk3. i have a mk3 and a mk2 and don´t use the mk2 for filming anymore cause the difference in quality is too huge. also apart from the moire. for photographing the mk2 still is very good.
Kendrick on 12.4.12 @ 2:17PM
Lmao!!!!! He fixed the video since then with the blank text blocks….software issue….he really should at least look at the video first instead of trying to rush to be the 1st person online with a shoot out….Come Mitch!!!!! pay attention….lol….great work tho I guess
@kendrick – you're right – I failed miserably on this one. There were indeed software problems – and I spent much of the day yesterday (monday) helping CrumplePop with trying to diagnose the issues – but I should have triple checked the output of the video. FCPX screwed me big time here because all the side by side shots are still perfect inside FCPX, but on export, they are always out of sync. I did have only 30ish minutes with the 6D but spent over 10 hours trying to get the video edited correctly. Great learning experience for me! :)
Paul on 12.4.12 @ 3:44PM
Yeah what a great time saving 'pro' tool FCPX is turning out to be. I laugh at all those stupid AVID and PPro editors, stuck using industry proven workflows and techniques, blazing through their edits…what are they going to do with all that extra free time…
I use the extra time to troll ;-)
Paul on 12.4.12 @ 7:49PM
LMAO, nice!
Vincegortho on 12.4.12 @ 1:26PM
Is anyone counting on the uncompressed HDMI upgrade for the Mark3?
Will the image be any sharper?
Will the image actually look like 1080p?
At the least, the artifact from the cheap codec should be gone, right?
Neil on 12.4.12 @ 1:28PM
I love how the mark iii's moire footage of the brick is shot either closer or zoomed in more than the others, effectively ruining the results.
If the 6d is better than the t2i, that's all I care about. Films are about story and performance. If the viewer gets taken out of the film cause of moire or banding, chances are he's a filmmaker. People don't care. I made a film on the t2i and no one has complained about the visuals.
I remember having Jvc hi-8 cams as a kid. We made movies with what we had access to. Still do.
Matt on 12.4.12 @ 2:10PM
Honestly, I don't think the footage you posted as a counterpoint doesn't do that at all. It's in completely different setup with the cameras locked down and no moire centric patterns to attack it. So in my mind, that's apples and oranges.
Kella on 12.4.12 @ 2:20PM
Why even shoot at dumb bricks???? Just get a person with a stripe shirt…..how easy is that?
jordan on 12.4.12 @ 2:28PM
I was thinking the same thing. Not that it matters, all these canon models produce horrible waxy skin tone anyway.
When I've saved enough money, the 6D will be my next camera. I currently own a gh2, so the morie issue doesn't bother me because for those kinds of shots I'd use the gh2 for them. I'm planning on getting it for a few reasons: low light high iso performance on par with 5D III, the high bit rate ALL-I codec (that I don't need to hack to get), the level of depth of field control that is tough to achieve on a m4/3 sensor with a 2.8 zoom, level of dynamic range and if I install magic lantern (I'm sure they'll have a version for this for the 6D) I'll get focus peaking. I think that the 6D and the gh2 complement each other as cameras really well. One camera's weakness is the other camera's strength.
Swested on 12.4.12 @ 6:15PM
….um, why in heaven's name would you not just get the GH3? I can't think of a single reason the 6D would outperform it from a video perspective, but I can't think of tons of reasons in the opposite direction.
Swested on 12.4.12 @ 6:15PM
Correction – I *can* think of tons of reasons in the opposite direction.
The gh3 is impressive, but not a huge leap from the gh2 in IMO. The low light performance may have been approved slightly, but not to level of a 6d or 5d as far as having usable footage at ISO10000-12800. I'd like to be able to shoot in conditions where I don't have control over the available light. Sure I could spend 1000+ on a super-fast, manual focus, single focal length prime lens to somewhat close the gap but I find that less flexible solution vs. just getting a 6D and using a variety of different lenses that are more affordable and versatile.
Which brings me to my next point, investment in lens. With my gh2, I'm using old Minolta lenses that were a hand me down from my father. So I haven't invested in m4/3 lenses. The reason why I haven't made the full plunge yet getting in m4/3 lenses has to do with fact getting a full-frame lens are a better long term investment when in comes to upgrading to different camera bodies. m4/3 lenses? So far my upgrade path is gh3, af100, and BMC with a passive mount. Canon EF? c100,c300, 1DX, 1DC, Red Scarlet, fs100, fs700, BMC with a active mount, and practically any cinema camera with a swappable mount. Plus, I can buy new lenses (and not adapting old ones) at a lot more affordable prices with manufacturers like Tamron and sigma. m4/3 is still catching up in variety but are not as affordable with the lack of 3rd party manufacturers. Plus, with the sensor size the depth field of the lenses have different characteristics.
Depth of field? I have to use a lens at 1.4 on my gh2 to get the same level of depth of field on a full frame at 2.8. At 2.8 on a gh2, is about the same in dop as f 5 on a full frame. Switching between a bunch of prime lens on a run and gun shoot vs. using just one zoom that can achieve the same level of subject isolation is a lot more practical. Even if I use a 35-100 2.8 or a 12-35 2.8 lens on a gh2, I STILL got to grab a prime do the same things I want to do with DOP.
Does the gh3 have an improved codec? Sure, but the ALL-I has a higher bit rate without any hacks. Plus if I do hack it (with Magic Lantern) I can get focus peaking. Something that has yet to be achieved by Panasonic or the camera hacking community with the gh2/gh3/af100. 60fps at 1080p on the gh3? I rarely if ever find the need to shoot slow-mo. And if I wanted that, I pick up a much cheaper Sony a57 that has plus focus peaking, and in-body IS (not mention will also use my Minolta set).
But having said that, I love my gh2. There a lot situations rather it be outdoors during the day or under controlled conditions where it would still be my "A" camera. But there are some limitations to it that are remedied by getting the 6D. Using a combination of both cameras, I'd be able to handle all situations and types of shooting possible; rather it be weddings, low budget movies, outdoor/indoor events, etc. and still would be able to meet my personal aesthetic.

I'm not sure what sample videos you've seen, but the GH3′s capabilities in low-light are pretty impressive – and low-light was definitely the GH2′s achilles heel. Shadows are finally crisp rather than noisy. I'd hate to be stuck with ugly moire and god knows what other crippled nonsense on a 6D.
And, IMO, ultra-shallow DOF is an overrated gimmick that has run its course. And on the rare occasion I need decent DOF, the 20mm f1/7 is an outstanding, affordable native m4/3 lens that produces video as pretty as nearly any Canon prime I've used. And it's ludicrously slim and lightweight, too.
Are there videos you can post of link of that shows what your detailing about the improved iso performance? If presented new info, I'd be more than open to reconsider the gh3.
Did some more searching on the net for high iso tests with the gh3, some calcuations with dop, and researched some more affordable prime lenses, taking all of that into account, I'll choose the gh3 afterall. The low light performance looks to improved to a HUGE leap from what it was before and thats good enough for me.
JAY CHASE on 12.9.12 @ 9:44PM
THE GH3 is not all what it seems, technicallhy the GH3 IS bigger than gh2 which defeats the purpose of micro 4/3rd camera. Also technically the GH3 is just a OLYMPUS OM-5 with higher bitrate with a sony sensor.
The fact that its a sony sensor is not a problem, have no problem with a company developing a new sensor with whoever, the problem is that the sensor is an existing sensor that was not even optimized for video in the OLYMPUS.
RIGHT NOW THERE IS NO for sure DSLR TO PICK, the 6d and mark 3 both do not have hdmi out uncompressed, so its upscaled garbage HD, THE GH3 has a sony existing olympus sensor with decent low light and a video'ish look. the NIKON's uncompressed video are gimmicky .
Just confused, while i would snag a c100 in a second, the fact of no SLOW MO OPTIONS IS just ludacris.
Pedro on 01.8.13 @ 11:12PM
I've a 6D. Low video bitrate at Low light conditions even on ALL-I. Lower than a 60D…
Voltaire on 12.4.12 @ 6:01PM
They're all shit. Canon is going backwards.
It's not going backwards. But it's not moving forward either, and others are…
Jamie on 12.4.12 @ 6:34PM
Hard to take any of this seriously. Too much self promotion, too many distracting links, and not a well thought out or precise test. I'm not sure what to make of it.
Voltaire on 12.4.12 @ 6:59PM
True that. "PlanetMitch" is the king of self-promotion. He's done everything in his power to shoot down the Blackmagic Cinema Camera because he knows just how shit his beloved Canon's are next to it.
@Voltaire: I'm the "king of self-promotion"? Good to know I'm the king of something – HA! I'm also impressed that you think I have the "power to shoot down the Blackmagic Cinema Camera" – I just voice an opinion – certainly not saying anything bad about people using it. It likely will become a very good camera. And I'm certainly not the only one who doesn't think highly of the BMC image. If I were as married to Canon as you say, you'd think I would have had glowing things to say about the 6D.
@Jamie – I had literally 1/2 hour to get the camera, set it up and shoot. They didn't want me to have it for any longer than that. So I thought I did O.K. with the time I had. Not great obviously and I did have trouble with the plugin from CrumplePop (which turns out to be an Apple problem). I'll be happy to post your next camera test on planet5D – please contact me http://blog.planet5d.com/contact and we'll get it set up.
Jamie on 12.5.12 @ 11:05PM
Calm down Mitch. I'm not sure why you think it's that important that the world needs your review asap. Slow down, take a breath and figure out a better use of the 30 minutes you did have.
I don't do camera tests. For them to be valued they need to be well thought out. This was not thought out. It wasn't based upon anything professional. If you are going to put forth your quirky [somewhat annoying] personality then be prepared to take some shots.
Man up and put your real name/email address on here if you're going to say shit like that. Fucking nobody.
john jeffreys on 12.6.12 @ 12:47AM
OOOOHHHHH *eats popcorn*
Ha ha. Well. I apologize for my language but I don't think it's right to personally attack someone that hasn't done anything to you. Especially anonymously on the internet. I have talked with Mitch a couple of times and he seems like a nice guy. I have also seen people be rude to him and he responds with way more respect than they deserve.
I am calm. I am quirky and if you don't like me, don't watch. I can take criticism – but appreciate it more when it is constructive. It is interesting that those people who get tons of views and positive reviews on places like youtube and vimeo are what I consider quirky. It works, people like it or they don't. Have you ever watched @digitalRev? or @froknowsphoto? I'm no where as crazy as those guys.
What would have made my test more professional? Do I have to wear a tie or something? I did a side by side test with 3 cameras at once. Thought it was pretty good considering the time I had.
And let me ask you about this… " Too much self promotion," – I mentioned planet5D twice I think and yes, I have a planet5D shirt. Help me understand what I've done that is so horrible.
Jamie on 12.6.12 @ 8:15PM
Mitch, not so horrible but amateur.
- you didn't bother to check your work before you uploaded [text issues]
- you don't take responsibility for your work, you blame time, you blame software and you blame the store for not allowing you to take the camera out. We all know that guy who has excuses.
- the actual camera test, as you call it, doesn't start until 2:50, before this we have almost 3 minutes of waffling and self promotion. I counted 10 promotions in those first 3 minutes.
- too many redundant shots of the cameras, the dolly shot was particulary pointless.
- the first part of the test is not useful, the cameras are moving inconsistently, their frame of reference is off, if you want to show moiré don't have the cameras moving so quickly that we can't see without pausing, already there are artifacts introduced in web compression.
- at 4:10 there is useful info but why magnify, give us time to look.
- no comment on rolling shutter tests.
- why sharpen 6D at all, seems like an afterthought, no comparison.
- the comparison 'test' ends at 5:40. So in 7 minutes you have just under 3 minutes of 'test'.
- from 5:40 to end I count another 11 promotions.
Obviously your presentation style is not for me but I can't quite figure out the point of this, a bit narcissistic.
@Jamie – for some reason I can't reply to your comment directly (no reply button below your comment)
I do appreciate your constructive input – while I don't agree with much of it – tho I do agree I have lots to learn and am eager to do so – which is why I put myself out there. I've learned that not everyone appreciates or likes what I do, but I'm out there trying and learning from my mistakes – which is more than I can say for most people who trash talk.
My comments to your points:
- I did check my work in FCPX (but didn't triple check the final output) – lesson learned
- I don't blame anyone but myself for the failures in the edit etc. The other bits you call blame are information. I don't consider it 'blame' to tell people the conditions under which the video was put together. We had 30 minutes. It isn't blame, it is simply part of the parameters of the test. I was trying to be considerate to the store who was lending me product in the middle of a very busy time.
- don't know how you can call the first 2:50 self promotion. I often have people wanting to see the physical differences in the cameras. People generally want to understand the setup before they see the results. Yes, I also did explain products and people want to know who contributed and what certain things are. If I don't identify the gear, people then ask… "what is that thing holding all three cameras?" etc. Describing the setup and products is not self promotion!
- ok, you didn't like the photos – but I was trying to give info about the setup and to point out the color differences and size differences in the bodies. People often ask for that. You don't like it… can't please everyone.
- frame references were exactly right in FCPX before export. I failed to double check export. Admitted that already. MY fault
- 4:10 – thanks – didn't know if people wanted me to pause. Good input.
- rolling shutter – ok
- sharpen – well, people wanted to know that with the 5D3 (and other cameras), so I put that in. Should have shown other cameras too but I didn't want the test to be too long (have been criticized about that too)
- tried to keep it short – didn't have enough footage to do much more (again only 30 minute time constraint)
- yes, again, I like to thank those who helped, sent products for me to test, and those who have questions about what products I used.
Again, I appreciate the constructive input (finally).
You may not get the point of the test, but I have gotten lots of kind words about this testing and tho not perfect, many appreciated me doing it and have reached out to tell me so. You didn't… but being constructive is a heck of a lot better than posting anonymous bashing. You consider my quirky personality annoying, well, I consider your negative attitude and anonymous posting annoying. Are we even? :)
WHy are we still comparing H.264 footage to more H.264 footage. This is boring, this codec is old and is absolutely archaic. New Cameras, Pro Res, RAW ! cmon!
fred on 12.6.12 @ 11:40AM
Best solution is to use MK II with VAF-5D2. i'm using it myself and Moire and aliasing is not a problem any more. I use it for professional purposes and I'm so happy with results. Every 5d Mrk II owner should buy this incredible piece of equipment.
Considering low gray market prices for mark II, it is the best option ou there.
Danny on 12.16.12 @ 10:24PM
I'm not surprised or disappointed with the 6D features, I am disappointed in the price of the 6D and 5D3. Based on the market price of the 5D2 (when the 3 was announced) the mk3 should have hit at $2400 and the 6D at $1700 US. I figure the 6D price will be there really soon and the mk3 will continue to OVER priced. Only time will tell
Ollie on 01.3.13 @ 12:21AM
Does anyone know of a anti moire/aliasing filter for the 6D similar to Mosaic Engineering's VAF-5D2 (for 5D MkII)?
yes i want to know the same thing, anyone tried?
elementare on 01.27.13 @ 2:07PM
People who are crying for the aliasing should remember that this camera is first than all a camera, made to take photos. An antialiasing filter would have added a feature for videomakers but photographers would have bothered for an alleged or less loss of definition. At this point it just seems that Canon created, maybe without realizing it, a camera, the 5d MkIII for videomakers, and the 6D without an antialiasing filter and more high iso capabilities for photographers.
Roman on 02.3.13 @ 2:33PM
The 6D is a better choice for filmmakers than a 5D mark II.
Here's why :
Yes the mark II is slightly cheaper but paying a premium for old technology is not
a wise investment, unless you can get an amazing deal on a used body. Price wise the 6D is better value.
Much better ISO performance hands down than the Mark II
30min recording limit and time code
Future magic lantern support and you never know what can be achieved with those guys on this new technology. They've done all they can with the Mark II.
Anti aliasing filter is now available for the 6D and may work better at wide angles than the one on the 5D
Future firmware updates from Canon may unlock more features.
The Wifi function could be really useful once they make it functional for video. Imagine doing away with your monitor and use an ipad or laptop (perfect for clients).
For me the better ISO performance and wifi should warrant this as a good filmmaking tool.
Hi Roman, any idea how to connect the Wifi of 6D with an ipad ?
Leon on 04.8.13 @ 10:22AM
Price isn't the only consideration when comparing 6D with 5D II or III. I find those cameras too heavy. But ending up with unusable video is a high price to pay.
Kamal on 04.8.13 @ 11:45AM
I want buy a new full frame camera for architecture and interior photography
I m confused which camera is best for the job
5d miii or 6d?
John on 04.28.13 @ 4:09PM
Guys, I currently shoot with a 550D but want to upgrade to one of the full frame DSLR's (Not just for the full frame 'look' – but they seem to give more detail and are nicer to grade with) Would the 6D be a good upgrade? As far as I can tell on ebay, gumtree and what not the 6D is actually a couple of hundred quid cheaper than the 5d mk 2. But I see a lot of people condemning it. Thoughts?
John, it will be a indeed leap of faith. Upgrading to a full frame will enhance the final photographs and you will appreciate the tonal values and contrast levels. Go for it.
Wonderful items from you, man. I have understand your stuff previous to and you're simply extremely magnificent.
I actually like what you've received right here, really like
what you are stating and the way in which through which you assert it.
You make it enjoyable and you still care for to keep it smart.
I can not wait to read much more from you. This
is actually a terrific site.
Mahdi on 11.1.13 @ 2:03PM
Totally better detail in CANON 6D
Desmond on 12.17.13 @ 7:39AM
Since its already a full frame pro camera..and why on the shutter dont goes over 1/4000?
It would have been wonderful, if only Canon would have brought the price of 5D Mark II down and made it compete with 6D :)
Hello there, I think your site could possibly be having internet browser compatibility issues.
When I look at your website in Safari, it looks fine however when opening in IE, it has some overlapping issues.
I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Apart from that, excellent website!
Your style is very unique in comparison to other people I've read stuff from.

Last week, I stated that software is hard to develop. This week, I would like to concentrate on two of the reasons why.
Software is hard to develop for many reasons: We must figure out what to do, do it, and ensure that we have done it correctly.
If you compare my code with Dijkstra's original solution, you will see that in an odd way they are nearly logical duals of each other.
This month,
we show you how to use Microsoft's TypeScript as a productive superset of JavaScript, how to use OData in Microsoft Web apps, and how continuous testing in the dev cycle will save time and sanity. As always, this is useful, bits under the fingernails, approachable information that you can put to work right away

DescriptionThis app is used to calculate the speed of moving objects. You can measure the speed of pedestrians, cars, bicycles and anything moving of Earth's surface.
Before using this app you must enter your body height(in settings).
To start measuring the speed there are 3 steps you need to make:
- point the camera to the starting point of the interval you want to measure(point to the ground like in the last image) and click the orange button
- point the camera to the ending point of the interval(like in the last picture) and click the button again
- now turn the phone with camera pointing the moving subject starting before the first point and ending after the second point(the top bar shows the progress)
Click again the button to reset.
In the short future I will put updates to resolve bugs and support more screen dimensions and a priced version with instant speed and more features like cam recording.
Note! This app is a real speed gun based on mathematical calculations but limited to the quality of your phone's sensors.
Please calibrate your compass if you have trouble with the speed gun and send me messages every time you encounter bugs or problems. Thank you!

Peavy on occasionally being skipped: ""I want to pitch. I'm going to fight that battle."—
Mark Gonzales (@MDGonzales) March 14, 2011
Guillen admitted the organization is still talking about leaving Peavy back in extended spring camp to be more safe than sorry, possibly giving Humber a start, then bringing Peavy into the mix in mid-April.
But Peavy doesn't want to be brought into the mix as the fifth starter, then get skipped whenever there's a day off.
"I certainly understand coming off an injury [they'll be careful], but when I'm deemed healthy, I want the ball every time my spot comes around,'' Peavy said. "Like I said, I'll certainly battle my authorities and put up a pretty good fight to get the ball.''
Peavy said that if the Sox plan to skip him throughout the season, he would "fight that." Once he's deemed healthy wants normal schedule.—
(@cst_Cowley) March 14, 2011
Peavy also said he's not looking to make the team, he's looking to get better. So he called it a successful day from that standpoint.—
(@cst_Cowley) March 14, 2011
Peavy won't mind being skipped a few times early in the season, but the club might not want to make a habit of that or one pissed Peavster.—

Peavy: "I've felt like one of the guys since I've been here in camp."—

Peavy on workload: "My volume was so high that there was no rest period.
We just got to maintain."—
Mark Gonzales (@MDGonzales) March 14, 2011
Peavy said the work/treatment between starts paid off, but he's learned to back off on some of it due to work put into rehab from injury.—

The high court on Monday refused to hear appeals from Amazon.com LLC and Overstock.com Inc., in their fights against a state law that forces them to remit sales tax the same way in-state businesses do.
Web retailers generally have not had to charge sales taxes in states where they lack a store or some other physical presence. But New York and other states say that a retailer has a physical presence when it uses affiliates - people and businesses that refer customers to the retailer's website and collect a commission on sales.
Amazon and Overstock both use affiliate programs.

She has been married to the same man for 50 years and has been doing the same job for 25 years.
Lee celebrated her 50th wedding anniversary with her husband, Larry, on June 25. Family and friends attended a reception in their honor at Musgrove Country Club on July 3.
Both were born in Alabama but didn't meet and fall in love until their families moved to Michigan. They have one son, Mike.
Lee started working as a flight attendant after Mike married his wife, Laurie. She was 43 years old at the time.
"I had a neighbor who was in reservations. They did a lot of pass riding. I thought, 'Wow, free travel.' So I applied with Eastern (Air Lines) and was hired in reservations," Lee said.
One day shortly after that, Larry Lee noticed a want ad in the Sunday newspaper for flight attendants who would be guaranteed to be based in Atlanta.
"I never saw that before or since with any airline," Lee said.
She attended an open house and was hired.
Lee is currently working for American Airlines, where she has been for 20 years. She is based in Miami and flies internationally to London, Paris and Madrid.
She said she prefers long flights to Europe and deep South America, such as São Paul, Rio de Janeiro and Buenos Aires. Her favorite cities are Rio for its shopping and London because of its theater. Ironically, she has never found time for her dream trip to the Emerald Isle.
"I started flying so I could go to Ireland and haven't made it yet," Lee said.
American Airlines allows her enough flexibility to drop trips if necessary, which she had to do several times while caring for her mother, Bessie Ratcliffe, until her death in March.
Even getting to work requires Lee to fly. Recently, American Airlines added a route for a regional jet that she can take from Birmingham directly to Miami.
"You have to fly to work just like you would drive to work, only it's more stressful and it takes longer," Lee said.
The events of Sept. 11 had a profound effect on flight attendants like Lee. Her sisters in uniform were among the first to die that day. Many people quit their jobs on the spot after they heard the news. Others left because they couldn't handle the mental stress.
"Prior to that, terrorism was just terrorists trying to get from point A to B, some place like Havana where we don't normally fly. After that, you're a little more wary," Lee said.
In 25 years, Lee has only had three near-misses on flights, one of which required an emergency landing.
Lee has many wonderful memories from her years as a flight attendant.
Once she fell asleep in the downstairs of an antique shop in London and woke up afraid that she had missed her flight. Last fall, she went on a walking tour in London on Halloween of Jack the Ripper murder sites.
She has also made many wonderful friends who enjoy sharing the details of the soap opera that is their lives each time they fly together.
"It's a job that you don't want to retire from," Lee said.

Monday notes looks at Gunther Cunningham's comments, special teams coaches, and more.
The Lions have decided to fire special teams coordinator Stan Kwan, meaning they might be without a full coaching staff when they lead the North team in the Senior Bowl later this month.

The Lions have announced their 2009 coaching staff.
Friday notes looks at Stan Kwan, the Lions logo, and more.
Puke. That's how I feel about this move. The Lions' return game has been downright awful the last couple of seasons, and I feel like Kwan needed to be fired. Obviously we can count on Jason Hanson, but even our punt coverage was bad last season.

floppy diskhard disks" (or winchesters) which are rigid and rely on a small fixed gap between the disk surface and the heads. Floppies may be either single-sided or double-sided. 3.5 inch floppies are less floppy than the larger disks because they come in a stiff plastic "envelope" or case, hence the alternative names "stiffy" or "crunchy" sometimes used to distinguish them from the floppier kind. The following formats are used on IBM PCs and elsewhere:

New Care Association formed in West Yorkshire
Caring Times Latest
A new association for independent care providers has been launched in West Yorkshire.
Czajka Care Group managing director Konrad Czajka is chairman of the new Bradford Care Association which aims to enhance the standard of care that people receive throughout the region, whilst offering support to care providers and giving the industry a voice on a national and regional level.
"The association aims to help care providers in Bradford and the surrounding area to give the best standard of care to each and every client," said Mr Czajka.
"We hope to build the association into a substantial organisation which represents 90% of care homes and the majority of homecare providers in Bradford, but this cannot be done without the active support of as many members as possible. Membership is open to residential homes, nursing homes, and domiciliary care providers in the … Read More »
Clydesdale & Yorkshire Banks sponsor 'All Change' conference
Caring Times Latest
Clydesdale & Yorkshire Banks are the headline sponsor of the 'All Change' conference on November 19 which will examine the impact of the Care Quality Commission's new regulatory powers.
Co-hosted by Lester Aldridge Solicitors and Caring Times, the conference in London will look at how tougher corporate accountability requirements and a 'duty of candour' will affect directors and senior management of care home provider groups.
Presenter, journalist and campaigner Esther Rantzen will chair the event at which Secretary of State for Health Jeremy Hunt will be the keynote speaker. Ms Rantzen will interview Andrea Sutcliffe, the chief inspector of adult social care at the Care Quality Commission.

South Tyneside plans hub to provide integrated care
Caring Times Latest
A £9m facility is to be built in South Tyneside, offering services for older people and their carers and families.
The 'Integrated Care Services Hub' will incorporate 80 beds, with around 30 older people living on the site and others accessing beds for short breaks when their carers are on holiday or before going back to live at home.
South Tyneside Council has awarded a contract for the facility to South Tyneside NHS Foundation Trust which it says will be the biggest of its kind in the UK. It is expected that construction could start this winter.
The Integrated Care Services Hub will house a range of health and social care services providing support to service users and their families. The site earmarked for the development is at South Tyneside District Hospital although this is subject to planning permission.

Keeble calls for review of NHS continuing care assessment procedures
Caring Times Latest
Wide variations in the provision of NHS continuing care funding for people with dementia have been uncovered in a report by Sally Keeble, former MP and Labour prospective parliamentary candidate for Northampton North.
Ms Keeble surveyed 162 Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) and found that there was a lack of funding for advocacy services to provide help and support for families applying for continuing healthcare support. Only four CCGs identified specific funding for advocacy. The role of family carers in the decision-making process was frequently unclear and training of assessors was variable, with six CCGs saying they did not provide any training.
The report calls for a review of how CCGs assess people for continuing healthcare funding to protect against a postcode lottery.
Alzheimer's Society chief executive Jeremy Hughes said families were often refused funding because their local CCG did not adhere … Read More »
Care home group builds for the future in Hampshire
Caring Times Latest
Hartwood Care Group is planning for a sustained period of growth after securing new banking facilities from Clydesdale Bank. Hartwood is a joint-venture between major care home provider Hartford Care, Cinnamon Care Capital and developers Highwood Group.

The latest deal was delivered by Clydesdale Bank's regional business development manager, Alex Brown.
With origins dating back more than a century Hartford Care remains a family-owned business delivering residential, dementia, nursing, … Read More »
Annuity firm says councils stand to lose £1.58bn as more people deplete their wealth to cut care costs
Caring Times Latest
The proportion of people who would be happy to reduce their assets below the £23,250 threshold in order to ensure the state pays for the majority of their long-term care has almost doubled over the last year from 23% (2013) to 41% (2014), according to specialist insurer Partnership.
With an estimated 150,000 people entering care each year Partnership says councils could be shouldering up to an additional £1.58bn burden in England alone if all of those who say they intend to spend their wealth do so. Councils in the South East (£330m) and North West (£240m) are likely to be most impacted due to the relatively high number of care homes in these regions.
However, people in the East Midlands (53%) are most likely to say they would spend their wealth and fall back on the state for support. Thomas … Read More »
'Postcode lottery by the back door' risk for society's most vulnerable
Caring Times Latest
One of the UK's biggest providers of social care services has warned that ambiguity in the rules and guidance included in the Care Act could undermine the Government's desire to create a national set of care standards.
Home Group, which provides social care services to 30,000 people each year, believes that a lack of clarity around the terms used within the Care Act legislation could mean that some ill and vulnerable people with a major support need will no longer receive the care they need.
For an adult to meet the eligibility criteria, their needs must be caused by a physical impairment or illness, and they must be unable to achieve specified outcomes including carrying out 'some or all' basic care activities. Home Group wants the planned criterion for basic care needs to be altered to "one or more" basic … Read More »
Union calls on CQC to pull back on closure of two Kent care homes
Caring Times Latest
The GMB union wants the Care Quality Commission to hold-off on closing two care homes in Kent pending a full investigation.
GMB said previous CQC inspections stated that the two Orchard Care homes in Broadstairs in Kent offered a good standard of care and a decision to close the homes without explanation was an "insult to residents and staff".
The Woodlands and Fairfield Manor care homes have been told by the CQC to close immediately. Fifty seven staff work at the two sites which up until recently cared for up to 59 residents. News that the CQC had issued a closure notice for Fairfield Manor emerged in mid-August. All staff were required to attend meetings the following week. GMB says its members have not been given reasons for the closures.
GMB senior officer Andy Prendergast said that, while all residents had … Read More »
We must commission for quality to avoid 'sleepwalking into disaster'
Caring Times Latest
A social care leader has called for fundamental changes to tackle a dire shortage of nurses in Wales. The scarcity of medically trained staff is leading to nursing home closures which will push the NHS beyond breaking point, according to Care Forum Wales chairman Mario Kreft.
One of the major causes of the problem, says Mr Kreft, is the flawed way in which social care is commissioned.
"The commissioning process should be about quality and securing value for money and not about paying the lowest possible price," said Mr Kreft, speaking after it was announced that two homes in the Bridgend area were closing. HC-One, which owns Abergarw Manor in Brynmenyn and Southmead Grange in South Cornelly, blamed "a national shortage of nursing staff" for the "very difficult decision".
Mr Kreft said the closures were symptomatic of the problems affecting care … Read More »
RNHA says minister's comments lack balance
Caring Times Latest
The Registered Nursing Home Association (RNHA) has accused care minister Norman Lamb MP of besmirching the reputation of care homes across the country with ill-chosen, over-generalised comments likely to create a negative impression of the quality of service they provide.
Responding to remarks attributed to Mr Lamb, who claimed that care homes can be 'austere and alien', RNHA chief executive Frank Ursell said such a description clashed with the findings of a survey that asked care home residents what they thought of their care.
"Nearly nine out of ten (86%) of the sample interviewed told researchers that they had a say in arranging their own room," said Mr Ursell.
"In addition, almost all of them (98%) said they felt comfortable and safe in their care home.
The survey, carried out by the Personal Social Services Research Unit at the University of Kent … Read More »

Health officials say this season's flu shot is only 9% effective in protecting seniors against the most common and dangerous flu bug.
Flu vaccine tends to protect younger people better than older ones and is never 100% effective. But experts say the preliminary results released Thursday are disappointing and highlight the need for a better vaccine.
For all age groups, the vaccine's effectiveness was a moderate 56%.
But it did a particularly poor job of protecting those 65 and older against a harsh flu strain that is causing most of the illnesses this year. Health officials emphasize that some protection though is better than none at all.
The flu season started early this year but the worst of it is over. (AP)
