2009
I picked up the new Canon EOS 5D Mark II 21.1 MP full frame camera about a month ago. The low light performance is outstanding. Iso 3200 is virtually noise free and iso 6400 is perfectly usable. Community consensus says spend your money on quality lens rather than upgrading the camera body. In this case, I disagree. While adding a lens to your arsenal is always a good thing, the change in body technology basically upgrade your entire lens collection. Those f/4 you own can now be used indoors and that 50mm f/1.4 is now a cat eye in darkness. Justification may be warrented in my case since I moved up about 3 generation from a 30D. The other glaring feature that cannot be overlooked is the HD video capabilities. 1920x1080p video at 30fps with stereo sound and the ability to use the entire EOS line of lenses makes this one sweet production camera. Of course the low light performance in video is equally amazing.
I can’t do this camera justice with a proper review so read at: www.dpreview.com. But here are my pros and cons:
PROS:
1. Noise free high iso capabilities.
2. 21.1 Megapixels. You can crop your crops.
3. Full Frame
4. 1080p video
5. 3 inch 920,000 dot LCD monitor
CONS:
1. Large file size
2. Lack of manual controls in video mode
3. Center auto focus still the same as previous generation
