Canon 6D successor will be a mirrorless full frame camera

Quote:Allow me with my humble knowledge to intervene here: Any focus screen needs calibration, even the one that came with your brand new camera, 
You have no basis for what you wrote there, to be frank. 

Again, annoying to have to repeat this, but the Eg-S screen does NOT need "calibration" by shims in a 6D, nor do other Eg screens. There are no shims in Canon DSLRs for that purpose, so the notion that new cameras would need the focus screen calibrated is a bit odd? The manufacturing tolerances are high enough to make sure that every screen has the same thickness, every screen sits the same optical distance from the mount.

 

The Eg-S in my 6D makes it much faster to judge focus with big aperture shallow DOF lenses with for instance  f1.2 on FF (that would be f0.6 on MFT) than with focus peaking. Depending on the state of one's eyes, of course  :wacko:
