    From the Manufacturer

    Compact, lightweight with environmental protection, EOS 5D successor boasts a newly designed Canon CMOS sensor, with ISO sensitivity up to 25,600 for shooting in near dark conditions. The new DIGIC 4 processor combines with the improved CMOS sensor to deliver medium format territory image quality at 3.9 frames per second, for up to 310 frames.

    Triggered from Live View Mode, HD video capture allows users to shoot uninterrupted at full 1080 resolution at 30fps -- for amazing quality footage with outstanding levels of detail and realism.

    The integration of HD movie capability into a high-end 21.1-megapixel camera opens a multitude of new possibilities for photojournalists and news photographers. With its full-frame CMOS sensor and outstanding ISO performance, the EOS 5D Mark II will appeal to any photographer in search of the finest camera equipment available -- from studio and wedding to nature and travel photographers.

    Other improvements to the EOS 5D include:

    • Addition of Canon’s EOS Integrated Cleaning System, with a new Fluorine coating on the low-pass filter
    • Larger 3.0-inch Clear View LCD with VGA resolution, a 170-degree angle of view and anti-reflective coatings
    • Improved menu system including Quick Control Screen for more direct access to common settings
    • Automatic peripheral illumination correction, utilizing detailed EF lens information to optimize JPEG images straight out of the camera
    • Magnesium alloy construction with additional environmental protection
    • UDMA memory card compatibility EOS 5D Mark II Highlights

      New CMOS sensor
      The EOS 5D Mark II’s newly designed full-frame 21.1-megapixel CMOS sensor features ISO sensitivity from 100-6400, expandable to 50, 12,800 and 25,600. Large 6.4µm2 pixels have been redesigned to capture more light and yield a better signal to noise ratio to ensure lower noise images throughout the ISO range. The full frame sensor has the same dimensions as a frame of 35mm film. This means that wide-angle lenses stay wide, without the change in angle of view associated with smaller sensor cameras. As well as benefiting from finer control over depth of field, photographers moving up to the EOS 5D Mark II’s full frame format will find the newly designed wide, bright 98 percent coverage viewfinder on a joy to work with.

      New DIGIC 4 processor
      A new DIGIC 4 processor combined with 14-bit analogue to digital conversion provides smooth gradations in mono-tonal areas such as skies, and highly accurate color rendition. As well as HD movie shooting, DIGIC 4’s high speed provides for long uninterrupted continuous bursts of large JPEGs, near-instant start-up times and immediate and fast review after shooting. DIGIC 4 also provides for improved noise reduction algorithms, complementing the already low-noise images from the EOS 5D Mark II’s CMOS sensor.

      HD video capture
      The EOS 5D Mark II is Canon’s first DSLR to incorporate full HD 1920x1080 video capture. Once filming is started from Live View mode, photographers can fire off either single of continuous stills, with video capture continuing after the final frame is captured.

      See everything
      A new 3.0-inch VGA resolution LCD provides a wide 170 degree angle-of-view, providing plenty of clarity for accurate focus checks in playback. The screen brightness can automatically adjust to suit viewing conditions, extending battery life in low light and improving viewing in bright conditions. A new dedicated Live View button switches modes to display a real-time image on the LCD. This allows EOS 5D Mark II photographers to enjoy simplified shooting from awkward angles. Simple connection to a PC provides easy remote shooting.

      Precision focus and metering
      A 9-point auto focus system is supported by 6 additional invisible Assist AF points, located inside the spot-metering circle to optimise subject tracking performance in AI SERVO AF mode. For accurate exposure readings in tricky lighting conditions, the spot metering circle covers just 3.5 percent of the frame.

      Control
      The EOS 5D Mark II’s redesigned menu system includes a new Quick Control screen, for instant access to the most commonly changed settings. A new Creative Auto mode allows photographers to cede control of key settings to the camera, while retaining control over creative variables such background blur, drive mode and image brightness. Custom user settings allow photographers to switch between two completely different camera setups. This is ideal for changing quickly between two different environments, such as switching from working inside a church without flash to outdoors with fill-flash at a wedding.

      Optional Accessories
      Shooting flexibility is enhanced with a range of new accessories. Shooting capacity can be extended with either the high-capacity 1800mAh lithium-ion Battery Pack LP-E6, or Battery Grip BG-E6.

      A new optional Wireless File Transmitter
      The WFT-E4 offers external HDD and GPS compatibility along with ability to transmit images direct to computer or FTP server, or operate the camera wirelessly. Both the BG-E6 and WFT-E4 feature a vertical orientation shutter release and other key controls for comfortable portraiture work, with a substantial grip to help balance the camera when used with long lenses.

    Canon EOS 5D Mark II: Highly Recommended by dpreview.com
    Read the full Canon EOS 5D Mark II preview at dpreview.com
    How do you follow a classic? That's the question Canon faced when it got to work producing a successor to the EOS 5D. The original 5D was the first 'affordable' and lightweight (in relative terms) full frame camera, and set a standard for low noise at high ISO settings that remains competitive three years later. The EOS 5D attained almost cult status amongst Canon users (selling surprisingly well for a $3000 camera), and paved the way for Nikon (with the D700) and Sony (with the Alpha 900) to launch their own 'compact' full frame semi-pro bodies.

    A very nice upgrade and I am not going back
    4 Stars
    A very nice upgrade and I am not going back
    For the record, some of the reviews posted on Amazon are not associated with the camera Canon 5D Mark II at all. The majority of them were about price gouging from third parties that are selling through Amazon. On the other hand, I did purchase the camera along with the 24-105mm lens through Amazon at the price of MSRP and the purchase was delivered on time. So, I believe people should step back and look at the whole picture first before posting reviews that are NOT associated with the products at all. Such action does not do justice to the product and waste lots of readers' time.Now, let's get down to the main issue. I have been using the digital rebel for a few years and I was looking for all sorts of reasons to upgrade to a full frame body. The Canon 5D Mark II arrived at just the right time. I placed the order along with the battery grip and I can honestly tell you that I am both happy and also disappointed at the same time. Since I am only an amateur weekend photographer, my review is only from the novice user's perspective. If you are looking for a detail feedback specs and comparisons, I believe you will be better off if you read the feedbacks from the pros.Starting with what I like first. The resolution of 21.1 MP is a huge leap from what I had before. The first thing to notice is that the raw image files are much larger. Along with it is the conversion time (from RAW to JPEG) needed is also much longer. This is just a one time thing during upgrade and I am sure most users will get used to it. The camera body is solidly made and the size is just right. Since I go hiking a lot, I don't consider the size (with battery grip) is much to carry. The majority of my shots are landscape done in Aperture priority. The burst rate of 3.9 FPS is plenty for me and it is not likely that I will need the feature at all. What I notice the new camera helped me the most is that during the low light condition, I can switch to the auto IOS option and I have been happy with the results that I have been getting. In addition to the still photography, I do consider the HD video as an added bonus. I do take short clips of film from time to time just to make my hiking trips more enjoyable.Now, let's talk about my disappointments. The 5D Mark II that was delivered to me had a HOT SPOT on the sensor. First, I did not notice this issue at all as I was too excited to have this new toy with me. But after a couple nights of testing, I noticed that there is one spot which is always shown as bright Orange Red on my still images. This HOT SPOT is hard to be seen unless one is to view the picture in 100% mode and pan through all corners. One can easily ignore this issue if one is to have just one HOT SPOT and one only takes still images. However, the newly added feature of HD Video changed that completely. The same HOT SPOT is also shown on all the films that I took. It stayed at the same coordinate and it is there on every single frame of the film. That alone did not sit too well with me. So, I made a point and brought the Canon 5D Mark II body to the service center in person to have it fix. When I talked to the service rep, I was told it would take 7-10 business days. However, the entire service transaction took more than two weeks to complete. When I called for status of my unit, I was told the sensor had to be replaced and it has been on back order. So, it appears that this HOT SPOT issue is more common than usual. In any case, I finally got the unit back and did more testing. I am happy to report that I don't have the HOP SPOT issue anymore. So, as an advice, if one is to buy the camera, I think it would be wiser to buy it in the store and have a test run at first. Perhaps take a short film clip of a dark room and see if there are any static HOT SPOT(s) on all frames of the film. This would be a good way to filter the bad from the good. Also, I have been trying to play the HD movies on my PC and I must admit, the playback is rather jerky. I was told that it is the PC QuickTime player's doing. I did not see any issue from the playback through the camera at all. In addition, I've asked a friend to play the same movie file on a MAC and it was just fine as well. In this case, I think I can only blame the Apple QuickTime software.In conclusion, I do like this camera and the features that it offers. However, I can't really give a five star on this review as I believe Canon may have a quality issue that they need to address first. Before you buy, do some tests in the store and pick the right one to take home with. Enjoy...
