hen I’m shooting
on a rock wall or
a mountainside, I want
to be able to capture
world-class images with
the lightest
possible
equipment.
For this
shot, I used
Canon’s EF 14mm f/2.8L
II USM lens to capture
both Jessa and the beau-
tiful alpine environment.
The EOS 5D Mark II’s
high-definition video
capabilities revolutionize
the way I work. With
web and multimedia
presentations playing
crucial roles in our
profession, capturing
high-quality video
alongside stills is more
important than ever.”

Dependable Performance
Without the Extra Weight
The EOS 5D Mark II might be
light in weight, but it’s a
“heavyweight” when it comes
to professional features and performance. The camera
body is made of magnesium alloy, making it exceptional-
ly strong and durable. The use of this advanced alloy,
however, ensures weight is kept to a minimum, resulting
in a camera that can be handled with ease and won’t
slow you down. The body is also extensively fitted with
seals and gaskets to keep out moisture and dust. The
result is a tough, dependable camera body that stands
up to the demands of professional use.
Remarkable Shooting Speed
A high-performance shutter assem-
bly, fast autofocus system,
advanced CMOS sensor design,
and state-of-the-art DIGIC 4 Image
Processor combine to deliver crisp camera response and
fast continuous shooting speeds. The EOS 5D Mark II
shoots at 3.9 fps despite the huge amount of data
associated with 21.1 Megapixel image capture.
Astounding Image Quality
The new Canon 21.1 Megapixel full-frame sensor com-
bined with the Canon DIGIC 4 Image Processor delivers
spectacular image capture with exceptionally low noise.
The EOS 5D Mark II maintains its trademark low-noise
performance even when shooting at higher ISO settings,
enabling the use of faster shutter speeds often needed in
action photography.
Self Cleaning Sensor Unit
Photographers who must
change lenses in dusty environ-
ments will appreciate the Canon Self Cleaning Sensor
Unit. Part of the EOS Integrated Cleaning System, which
uses both mechanical and software methods to effectively
deal with dust accumulation on the imaging sensor, this
self-cleaning unit employs an improved ultrasonic
vibration mechanism and a fluorine coating on the front
surface low-pass filter that better repels sticky and
moist dust particles.
Large, High-Resolution LCD Monitor
A 3.0-inch Clear View LCD monitor with significantly
increased resolution (920,000 dots/VGA) makes it possible
to view images with far greater detail. The large overall size
makes the display easier to use and more informative than
ever. The screen’s striking brightness ensures excellent
viewing ability even in bright outdoor conditions. A built-in
ambient light sensor automatically adjusts screen bright-
ness as needed.
