5 out of 5 stars Beautiful   July 16, 2010

This is a wonderful piece of equipment. I'd buy a second one if I had the money right now. Full frame is definately the way to go. Auto focus is a little on the slow side compared to my 40D but that is the only complaint. For the majority of what I photograph it is not that important.

If you are considering buying this camera, you need only to ask one question. Can i afford it? If the answer is yes then buy it. In my youth i often wondered why anyone would pay so much for a camera, i now know. Thank you canon for the education and an awesome camera.


5 out of 5 stars A pro camera that's affordable   June 27, 2010

I'm a Canon 40D user that's been lusting after the 5D II since its release. My 40D with Canon's excellent 24-105L F4 lens has taken some terrific shots, but I really needed the low light and extra resolution of the 5D to make my photographic work really pop. I've been doing a lot of portrait work recently and finally decided to spring for the 5D to get the best possible shots for my clients.

The result: I'm blown away with the quality of the shots. It's hard to take a bad photo with this camera. Everything comes out looking like an image from National Geographic or Architectural Digest magazines! Its wonderful to finally be able to use the actual 24mm end of my 24-105 lens (without the 1.6X factor of the 40D). Interiors shot using existing light without flash come out sharp and wonderful with great saturation and contrast. The image preview screen on the back of the camera is a vast improvement over the 40D, with a higher pixel count and excellent display.

My confidence as a photographer has come way up since owning the 5D. I've been shooting professionally since the mid 1970's with film cameras (Nikon FE2), then went digital in the 90's with an Olympus E10 (great in its 4 megapixel day), then the 40D and finally a camera that blows them all away: the 5D. If you can scrimp together the pennies, definitely buy the 5D and at least one L-series lens (the 24-105L F4 and 17-40L F4 are inexpensive for starters). This is a camera you'll be floored by the quality, and will make you want to devote more time to shooting because of the incredible results. I'm a night person, but this camera is so good it's made me get up early to take advantage of the dawn and morning light--and that's saying something!

I haven't explored the video capabilities yet, but I'm not a video type of guy. Most of my work is done for professional graphic design work (brochures, ads, magazines, posters, etc.) and the 21.1 megapixels leave lots of room for cropping and enlargement. Be ready to seriously read through the manual to learn the capabilities of this camera. Canon also offers new educational tutorials on their site.

This is a camera that anyone from beginner to seasoned pro can love. The full frame means you have to buy excellent lenses for it, but it's a purchasing decision that you will not regret. Get it!

I am a serious demo person when i want to purchase a piece of gear at this price i need to know if it's gonna fit the bill, so i make sure i do dura-testing on the product before i seal the deal... and i owned the 7D for a minute it was a sturdy camera i like the 8 fps a whole lot and the 60fps which was a deal helper, which was hard of letting go once i decided to go with the 5D mk2 so full frame beat the APS-c sensor anyday... it really helps when using L series or nice primes... this thing rocks when shooting.
7D has a dual processor which is good cause you can shoot video for 30min instead of 12min, also when shooting at the 8fps it buffers faster so significant differences. but still doesn't beat FF. LOL

I have done photography in the past with High Quality Canon film cameras and lenses for magazines. I decided to get back into photography and purchase the Canon D5 Mark ll. I found the camera Large, Heavy, Over Priced, and the Quality of the photos taken at 21.1 mega pix was poor and darker than at a normal photo would be taken in auto mode. My 10year old Sony 5.0 mega pix takes better photos.This Camera is not for a person that is a beginner or not knowledgeable in Photography. The HD video is good quality, however unless you use a Tripod or compensating lense, the video is shakey on playback.
I was very disappointed in this camera.
