Higher performance and convenience
borne of advanced technology
and responsiveness to the requests
of professionals.
Large CMOS Sensor (approx. 8.2 million effective pixels)
Canon’s new CMOS sensor with high-speed 8-channel reading
technology delivers exceptional image quality with low noise
and an extremely high S/N ratio. Its large 28.7 x 19.1mm size
realizes an effective angle of view that’s just 1.3 times the
focal length indicated on Canon EF lenses.
DIGIC II Imaging Processor
Compatible with DDR-SDRAM, Canon’s
newly developed, state-of-the-art DIGIC II
Imaging Processor achieves continuous
shooting of 8.2 megapixel images at
8.5 fps and employs original Canon
algorithms to accurately convert signals
into crisp, high-resolution images with
natural color and rich gradation.
8.5 fps continuous shooting with up to 40 images per burst
The EOS-1D Mark II is the world's fastest Digital AF-SLR
camera (as of February 2004). Its record-breaking 8.5 fps
speed is achieved even at full resolution (3,504 x 2,336
pixels), and is maintained during max. bursts of 40 shots
in JPEG mode (20 shots in RAW or RAW+JPEG mode).
E-TTL II Autoflash
Canon’s new Evaluative Through-The-Lens (E-TTL) Autoflash
system offers evaluative metering as well as new averaged
metering, which employs a new recording algorithm to
achieve more stable control and help prevent underexposure
and overexposure even when the subject changes location.
High reliability and rigidity
The highly reliable EOS -1D Mark II features rigid magnesium
alloy in the chassis and external covers that also contributes
to electromagnetic shielding, a durable finish and extremely
low body weight. At 200,000 shutter cycles, shutter durability
is 30% higher than in the EOS -1D and EOS -1Ds.
Software and accessories
Improved software features, which include EOS Viewer Utility
for faster image preview, and Digital Photo Professional
for high-speed processing, offer easier operability and
handling of RAW images. With the inclusion of such
accessories and a variety of EF lenses, Canon delivers
total digital imaging solutions.
