I just picked up a 6D, but I'm a dslr noob... I have zero other experience, but I did about a years research into this new hobby and i considered just about every camera in every form factor.

I narrowed down to the 6d because:
1.) full frame
2.) no existing glass, so I bought 3 lenses
3.) I do landscapes, some portraits, and of course, cars!

It's the perfect camera for me and I can always buy a new body later - canon knows their market.

And, not that my opinion counts, but I'm not sure why anyone would compare it to the 5D3 other than for academic fun. Pros are going to have a mk3, the 6d is for a cheaper second body or for new ff users.
