Digital camera reviews of Canon EOS 5D 12.8 MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only)
Digital camera Review: Not worth the Price Tag
Summary: 1 Stars
I am a camera buff and purchased this camera because I thought it would be an upgrade from my Nikon D300. I bought it from Samy's Camera and it is my fault that I did not get to open the box for over 2 weeks due to a family emergency. When I took it out of the box, it was defective. I took it back and since it was over 2 weeks, I had to get it repaired under my warranty. It took 3 weeks for me to get the camera back and it has never taken clear, crisp pics. The color is off and quality is just not what I expected for the money. I use it just now and then and still have not managed to get a great shot out of it
