The 6D was introduced 24 months earlier than the 760D making them a generation apart from each other. Both cameras feature different body design with the Canon 6D being a Mid-size SLR camera and the Canon 760D being a Compact SLR camera.

Before delving straight to a in depth comparison, here is a short overview of how the 6D grades against the 760D for portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

This is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon EOS 6D & Canon EOS 760D. The whole galleries are provided at Canon 6D Gallery & Canon 760D Gallery.

If you're aiming to lug around your camera, you'll have to factor in its weight and volume.

In many cases, it is very hard to see the gap in sensor measurements simply by checking out specs. The photograph underneath will offer you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the 6D and 760D.

As you can plainly see, both cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The 6D with its larger sensor will make getting shallow DOF easier and the Canon 760D will produce extra detail using its extra 4MP. Greater resolution can also help you crop images way more aggressively. The older 6D will be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
