Canon EOS 5D Mark II review
February 14th, 2009The test team at Dpreview has posted a detailled review of the Canon 5D Mark II:
“The 5D Mark II offers similar resolution to the Alpha 900, increases the sensitivity range to ISO 25,600, and offers high ISO/noise performance that gets close to the Nikon D700/D3. In short it – almost – offers the best of both worlds without costing the earth.
So while the 5D Mark II would never be mistaken as a camera aimed at sports or action photographers (thanks to its rather pedestrian AF performance and overall shooting performance), it balances resolution and high ISO performance very well.”
