"Affordable" fullframe, high resolution camera, Full feature set, Excellent high ISO performance, Live View with 3 AF modes, HD video capabilities,
Relatively slow burst mode, Autofocus a little slow in low light, No builtin flash, which is not a big deal but an onboard flash could be useful, On board microphone is fairly weak and monaural (an accessory mic is required for stereo recording),
When the original 5D was introduced, Canon made it possible for photographers with relatively modest budgets to purchase a full-frame DSLR. Now, for about the same price, photographers can easily put their hands on a full-frame, high resolution camera ...

Soft images straight out of the camera; requires a good lens for best results, Some detail smudging from noise reduction, even at low ISOs, White balance accuracy disappointed in several photo tests, Very slow contrast detect AF in live view mode; even...
The Canon EOS-5D Mark II is a solid upgrade to its predecessor, and a great choice for Canon users looking to step up to a full-frame body. The Mark II has a whopping 21.1 Megapixel CMOS sensor (which isnt without a few issues), great build quality, f...
Abstract: Think Canons new pro-level DSLR that also shoots HD video is perfect for you? Odds are that it isnt, unless youve got mad skills. Professionals and advanced amateur photographers tend to rationalize the purchase of a new digital SLR camera by weigh...
