Thanks very much for the replies guys.
I've done quite a bit of reading up and from what I've read, the 6d Mark 2 does have weather sealing on a par with the 5d.
I wouldn't be shooting in the rain anyway, it's more moisture from the sea that worries me.
Often when I'm shooting anywhere near the sea my lens gets quite salty, as do my glasses.
So really, it's to safeguard it from that.

I have two crop sensor lenses, the kit lens my 700d came with and my wide angle sigma 10-20.
My other lenses are all full frame.

I was thinking about getting a 24-105 L canon lens and primarily using that.
It's just all incredibly expensive.


I know I will use it and enjoy it though. I love my 700d to bits but there's just some things I can't do with it very well. (star photography...)
If it was weather sealed, had better ISO control then I'd be happy with it and not be thinking about changing it.


Regarding my sigma 10-20 lens, I use it normally at F11. Nothing is ever really crisp.
