It did not handle at all like any film SLR from Nikon, ever. So, Nikon did not produce what was asked for. They produced a stupid camera with stupid controls nobody actually really thought about. You must have missed all the opinions of those who actually used to own/use Nikon film SLRs, and the negative user experience of those who bought it and were not happy about the controls/concept? The only thing it did was mimic the look of one, kinda....
The ones who bought it for the "style" part, sure, they might stil love their expensive D600-nephew.
If you call the 6D's sensor "just plain sub par", so then are the Df/D4/D4s/D5 sensors, right?
