I'm thinking of buying a new camera. Do you have any experiences with Canon 6D and Sony a7 mk II?
What is the best low light performer?
What is the best overall camera?

There is no such thing as "best"
You really need to spend some time and look over the information available for each of them and determine which is going to work best based on YOUR needs and what you hope to produce.
Neither of them are "bad". Neither of them are perfect. Both of them are vast overkill for most people. Both of them are going to shine with good lenses, technique and creativity on your part.
Good luck.

Definitely for microstock!

To get an idea, you can see photos with Canon 6D & Canon 100 mm macro f/2.8 at: http://sebastian-studio.com/food/ (http://sebastian-studio.com/food/)

My main concern is low light performances. One should be better than other, that's the best out of those two. I don't know which one. But some people might have experienced both of those cameras.

Do you already have a Canon 60d and have you invested in Canon lenses and flashes?
If so, the 6D is probably the obvious choice.
I had a 6D and absolutely loved it, although the focussing system is far behind the 5d3.
Personally, I'm not interested in Sony mirrorless cameras. I like the fast focussing and ergonomics of DSLRs, as well as the great amount of accessories available. (Canon/Nikon)
If you are considering changing systems, surely you've considered a used Nikon d800 or new d750?
Both offer excellent bang for your buck.

Play around with the drop menus and see the differences. If you don't push your exposure in post the 6D looks better to me.
If you do push your exposure, the Sony looks better (to me)
