The EOS 5D Mark II camera breaks new ground for a full-frame DSLR. It shares 80% of its
features with the EOS 5D, and 10% with the flagship Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III (including a
Full-frame 21.1-megapixel sensor and bright, full coverage optical viewfinder). However, the
EOS 5D Mark II’s 21.1-megapixel sensor is unique and offers an exciting feature found on no
other DSLR to date—30 fps, 1080p Full HD video recording with sound! The 1080p HD video
recording mode represents a paradigm shift for still photographers and videographers alike, and
promises to open new creative doors and
commercial opportunities for advanced,
professional, and fine art photographers.
With it activated, photographers and video-
graphers can capture high definition video
with depth-of-field control found only in
professional video models—using much more
affordable Canon EF lenses including fisheye,
ultra-wide, and image stabilized lenses.
To accommodate the larger 36mm x 24mm full-frame sensor, the EOS 5D Mark II sports an
improved optical viewfinder with an impressive 98% coverage. In concert with the new sensor and
integrated DIGIC 4 Image Processor, the EOS 5D Mark II gives photographers unparalleled
opportunity to capture images with superb tonal gradations, extended dynamic range, and a low
signal-to-noise ratio—allowing normal ISO settings up to 6400, and expanded ISO settings up
to 25,600. The DIGIC 4 Image Processor enables faster startup times and a 3.9 fps burst rate
with continuous capture of 21.1-megapixel JPEGs limited only by the capacity of the memory
card when using UDMA-compliant CF cards. Advanced in-camera functions similar to
those found in the provided Digital Photo Professional RAW conversion software are also a
benefit of the DIGIC 4 Image Processor and include Peripheral Illumination Correction,
High ISO Noise Reduction and Auto Lighting Optimizer.
Both of the new EOS models now feature multi-coated 3.0-inch LCDs
with 920,000-dot resolution—displaying nearly four times the detail as
those found on previous Canon DSLRs. The LCDs also feature improved
dirt resistance, menu readability, reduced reflectivity for enhanced viewing
in bright light, and 100% scene coverage to assist manual focusing and
composition in Live View mode. For novices getting the feel of the
EOS 50D or EOS 5D Mark II, the new Quick Control screen lets you
make common exposure and image quality adjustments from just one
screen, or you can use the screen to modify settings in the Creative
Auto settings mode.
