 ... frame digital camera. Small it may be, light it is not. This camera is pretty heavy. Not really sure why the Creative Auto mode is on this camera. Unless the camera is on a tripod, using the Set button to start and stop taking movies is awkward. It is so easy to set the Canon EOS 5D Mark II Custom C1-C3 settings to Live View, Movie View, Auto bracketing. Or any other favourite combination. Although it is easy to take HD movies with the Canon EOS 5D Mark II, actually using the movies at the 1080p resolution is another ...more

The Canon EOS 5D Mark II has a wonderful 5616x3744 image size, which is hard to believe, 16x20 prints with no interpolation what so ever. There are three fully configurable custom camera settings. It's not restricted to just one RAW + JPEG combination which is always handy. It's very easy to create HD movies. And manual focus in movie mode isn't a problem. There's defiantly a good mix of pro and semi-pro features. Canon claims Canon EOS 5D Mark II is the smallest full frame digital camera. Small it may be, light it is not. This camera is pretty heavy.

The CanonEOS 5D Mk II is THE Best camera I have ever owned. My hobby is taking photos of the artists down at my local folk club. The die hard members of the club love to get the candles out on the tables and turn the dimmer switch down low. Not the best conditions for taking unobtrusive photos of the artists performing. The previous answer would have been to use a camera with a Flash! guaranteed to disturb most of an audience. But then I got my Canon and all my problems were solved. Granted I have to turn the ISO up to 6400 and above but the results are astounding. The resultant photos do have a margin of graininess but with the 21.1 megapixels this camera offers these ...  Read the complete review
