Canon EOS 5D ... offers advanced photographers a lightweight, robust digital SLR that uses Canon's superlative EF lenses without a conversion factor. Its full-frame 12.8 Megapixel CMOS sensor combines with Canon's DIGIC II Image Processor, a high-precision 9-point AF system with 6 assist points, and "Picture Style" color control to deliver images of superior quality with enough resolution for any application. With its wide-angle capabilities, 2.5 inch LCD and magnesium-alloy body, the 5D is the perfect addition to the Digital EOS line.

 ... bigger full frame sensor not only means that you can shoot true 35mm wide angle, but also means that the interference from nearby light receptors on the sensor is far less instrusive than on lower grade cameras with smaller sensors. There is less CA when compared like for like with the 350D and the same lenses. For shooting stock, this camera is great. The exceptional quality at lowish ISO's means that images can be interpolated up with east to suit the needs of most modern photolibraries. I also shoot alot of m...more

Premium Review Canon EOS 5D: I wouldn't change it for the world. (303 words)

Just wow. What a camera. I bought this a year ago as an upgrade to my previous entry level 350D. I had started getting paid for my photography and so decided that I needed something more reliable to take me across that daunting gap between amateur and professional. This was really the cheapest option available to me, I grabbed a bargain at just over £1000 for just the body only. What a step up it was from my previous camera. The images just scream quality. The bigger full frame sensor not only means that you can shoot true 35mm wide angle, but also means that the interference from nearby light receptors on the sensor is far less ...

The Canon EOS 5D is bridges the gap between consumer and professional DSLR cameras. Its price reflects this, retailing at around 1500GBP for the body. As a kit, it is offered with the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4.0L IS USM lens for around 2000GBP. (It is probably worth declairing at this point that I am on the consumer side of the fence, and so this review will be most useful for consumers, not professionals.) The headline feature of the 5D is the 'full frame' digital sensor. Most digital cameras have a sensor that is smaller in area than a 35mm negative. This leads to a focal length multiplication factor that is greater than one. For example, the Canon EOS 30D ...
