Digital camera reviews of Canon EOS 5D 12.8 MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only)
Digital camera Review: EOS 5D
Summary: 5 Stars
The EOS 5D is a terrific digital SLR. Its price point isn't for everyone but if you're a very serious amateur or want to upgrade to a camera that's pretty close to the 1D professional version (several thousand dollars more) - this is the camera. It has far more features than I am familiar with for the time being - but it is not hard to learn. I recommend it if you're really serious about photography. The Amazon price, shipping, and business dealings are excellent.Digital camera Review: EOS 5D cmera body
Summary: 5 Stars
I added the EOS 5D to my Rebel and 30D. What a great addition. So far I had nothing but fun shooting with this camera and the EF 17-40 mm f/4L USM glass. There is a reason this guy here has been shooting with Canon for the last 33 years.Digital camera Review: Excellent Camera! Expensive, but worth all the $
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a pro photographer that has been using the 20 and 40d. The full frame sensor opened up a new world for my photography and lenses. I am especially impressed with the detail I'm getting out of the shadows in my images.Digital camera Review: Excellent camera now an excellent deal
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent camera and since recent price drops it has become an excellent deal. While it doesn't have the bells and whistles of some of the newer offerings from Nikon and Canon (dust removal on the sensor, live view to name two), the design is 2.5 years old. By far the oldest dSLR in Canon's line up and one of the oldest digital cameras still being sold.
But where it matters, image quality from the camera still rivals the newest models out there. Great color, low noise, spot on autofocus. This is a tremendous product. I've used my two 5D bodies every day since Dec 2005 and they've never failed me.
If there is anything about this camera that bothers me it's dusty sensors. I don't think this attracts more dust than other cameras, but the sensor is about twice the size of the sensor in other consumer and prosumer cameras, so there is twice as much surface area to attract dust. But the superior image quality is worth the occasional sensor cleaning.
Digital camera Review: Fantastic.. Great.... packs a great punch.!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Having used the 20D 30D and now the 5D I can not tell you how much better it is.
The resolution and saturation of the full frame sensor just leaves the 1.6 frame 20/30D in the shade.
The camera is almost identical smaller framed brothers so making the change to the 5D is easy.
The only thing you will notice is the speed.
The 5D is slower than the 20D and 30D so if you are looking for 8fps then you will have to go the next step.
Oh and the battery grip is also a must if you are gong to be away from a power point for long periods of time.
I'm on location in Bangladesh right now so have to carry backup battery's.
