I have both a 60Da and a 6D, the 60Da destroys the 6D in every aspect of astrophotography.

Specially in terms of noise. My 60Da is less noisy than my 6D by a good margin. It's believed that Canon batch-selects its 18mpx sensors and the worst ones go to the rebel series (550D,600D, etc) and the best ones to the 60Da.

In my tests the biggest difference comes in thermal noise, in a summer session it was easy to see how the dark frames of the 6D had more noise than the 60Da by a good margin.

I might have an exceptional copy of the 60Da but I don't think that is the case.
