why all like Kai ?! This man is also excellent.
Where is Kai, I’ll wait until he does it.
@Sync1081 I traded in all my Nikon gear for Canon 5D Mark ll and just am loving the results! Full frame DOES make a difference. Also agree with Sync 1081 its not JUST the camera..(driving a Ferrari doesnt make you into a race car driver) …its up to your creative eye but wow pushing the envelope with a camera that has that edge over over cameras thats nice. Pleased shooting!!
@thebootcampbabe in the prospect duh
I just have this camera, and been searching for the net for a excellent guide for beginner, and form just a single record, you clarified it all!!! Thanks so much DigitalRev!!!!
Does anyone know if Canon is releasing a firmware with 60fps recording to the 5D Mark2? I might be slow but i cant seem to find it.
Cheers
wheres KAI?????
@Sync1081 Some one who is very smart.
Who would buy a 5D as their 1st DSLR….? o.o..* After much debate, I’ve narrow my choice to either a 5D or a 7D as my first DSLR…. I would propably say me.. A camera is just a camera.. its the person that’s behind the camera that matters….. a camera is just a tool for a creative eye… so, if i wish not to get held back from my creative side, then i must get a camera(tool) that will suite my needs and not one that will regulate myself…
Creative Auto for noobies… a noobie shouldn’t have a 5D mkII…..
@zjumps33 Really, FF gives superior DOF because you can be closer to the subject (physical distance), while on crop sensor you would have to be further away in order to have the same framing. You hv to go back (physically) a bit by your crop camera because the crop makes the frame tighter. Thus, you can be closer to the object on FF than on crop, which is why FF gives better DOF, if that makes sense…
i cant wait to get mine next week
im so amped up for it
J’ai acheté un Canon Mark II à la FNAC après avoir longuement hésité entre Canon et Nikon. Au bout d’une journée, le miroir s’est désolidarisé sans raison (pas de choc, rien). Je n’ai pris que 10 photos. Je passe à la FNAC et dis j’espérais un geste, au moins des excuses et un matériel neuf… Rien de tout cela. On m’a rendu un matériel réparé. Service déplorable. Pour un matériel de ce prix, c’est inadmissible. Je regrette amèrement mon choix Canon et, côté service, m’interroge sur la FNAC.
why did they place a CA-mode (noobie-mode) on a 3.000$ camera?? I mean.. who would buy the 5D as their first DSLR?
Fantastic record keep up the excellent work.
Oh its this guy..
@snowboardbum the “superior DOF” is still an illusion of a cropped sensor. its the same DOF whether its on a FF or a cropped just like a cropped sensor gives the illusion of being a higher mm length. your still cropping an image. same lens. same DOF.
@zjumps33 Oh that makes sense…because you’re sitting aptly next to me reading my mind, aptly? Who cares what brand, people don’t use full frame cameras for just portrait or landscape. If anything it’s better to use a crop sensor for landscape because of the superior DOF. Regardless, people use it for the low light capabilities, right wide angle and shallow DOF compared to crop. “Clearly” many people care about FPS because “…each tool for a different purpose”.
@snowboardbum its sweet clear u didnt read my comment.
@zjumps33 It’s sweet clear you can’t use this camera for sports. It’s AF system is shit for anything moving.
@11290427 I doubt Kai would be impressed by being compared with Jeremy Clarkson!! He’d have to start saying things like “the performance of this camera is ASTONISHING” and “the body weighs about as much as a packet of crisps” HAHA
@fullboxxskater A full frame sensor delivers the same angle of view as a frame of 35mm film (as it’s the same size). This means that a 50mm lens will equal 50mm on a full frame sensor, where on an APS-C sized sensor a 50mm lens would equal 80mm. Full frame sensors also offer better noise performance, and can achieve a shallower depth of field. Full frame sensors are better suited to people who use wider lenses, and APS-C sensors are better suited to people who prefer longer focal lengths.
@zjumps33 what does full frame do? Is it noticeable?
Digital Rev ebay account rips people off, but your reviews are excellent
@jeystonemusic Why not? I have sweet decent glass collection and would despise to pay extra for rubbish lenses I will never use anyway. Body Upgrade is the way to go for me. But different strokes for different customers; that’s why Canon sells kits and bodies only. Works for all except.. for those who want every1 to have the same needs as they have. Does that even make sense? =)
