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.

 ... 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

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.
