Advantages: a complete package

Disadvantages: the weight, the price,

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 pictures are perfectly acceptable for publication on the Folk Club Website.

I have yet to fully get to grips with this camera outdoors for landscape and nature, but my first foray to the outdoors enabled me to explore the depth of field and longer exposures which gave more amazing results....

Summary: Probably the Best camera I will ever buy
