For those of you searching for a Canon d5, you may be searching for the Canon D5 Mark II digital camera.  Since the Canon D5 Mk II is an SLR before it is a video device, the reproduction of sound has consistently been a sensitive subject, but with a bit of assistance, the Mk II can provide audio as transparent and clean as any other microphone-assisted video camera.

Canon’s update to the wildly popular full frame Canon D5 is here, and it’s better than ever. The Canon D5 Mark II has a stunning 21.1-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor with DIGIC 4 Image Processor, a vast ISO Range of 100-6400 (expandable to ISO L: 50, H1: 12800 and H2: 25600), plus EOS technologies like Auto Lighting Optimizer and Peripheral Illumination Correction. It supports Live View shooting, Live View HD videos, and more. It can shoot up to 3.9 fps, has 9 AF points plus 6 AF assist points, a new 98% coverage viewfinder, a 3.0-inch Clear View LCD (920,000 dots/VGA) and a rugged build. Full-frame shooters rejoice!

Pros: excellent image quality, Bright LCD, Nice features/settings, Solid Operation , Superior build quality, excellent image quality, Simple controls/menu, Nice features/settings, quiet, Quick Start-up time

Cons: needs firmware for known issues. Short battery life

Canon D5 Features:

21.1 Megapixel Full-frame CMOS sensor, 14-bit A/D conversion (16,384 colors/each of 3 primary color), wide range ISO setting of 100-6400 (expandable L: 50, H1: 12800 and H2: 25600).

Full HD Video Capture at 1920×1080 resolution and manual exposure control capability.

Next generation DIGIC 4 Image Processor for faster processing of fine detail and color reproduction as well as reduced image noise.

High performance with 3.9 fps continuous shooting, new shutter with a durability of 150,000 cycles and improved weather-resistant body.

Live View Function for stills (Quick, Live and Face Detection AF modes) and video.

3.0-inch Clear View LCD (920,000 dots/VGA) monitor with anti-reflective and scratch-resistant coatings for improved viewing and smudge protection.

Updated EOS Integrated Cleaning System specifically designed to work with a full-frame sensor.

Compatible with over 60 Canon EF Lenses and most EOS System accessories.

Highest ISO Range to Date.
21.1 Megapixel Full-frame CMOS sensor, 14-bit A/D conversion (16,384 colors/each of 3 primary color), wide range ISO setting of 100-6400 (expandable L: 50, H1: 12800 and H2: 25600).

The Canon D5 Mark II features a huge, full-frame sensor. A 21.1-megapixel CMOS sensor delivers images of up to 5616 x 3744 pixels. And since it is full-frame, all lenses will deliver the angle of view they would on a 35mm camera without a conversion factor. This comes in handy especially when shooting with wide-angle lenses. For the flexibility to shoot in even the most dimly lit situations, the EOS 5D Mark II offers Canon’s highest ISO sensitivity to date, ranging from 100-6400 (expandable to ISO L: 50, H1: 12800 and H2: 25600). Thanks to improved noise reduction technologies, images shot even at highest sensitivity will be remarkably smooth.
Some people have complained that the battery doesn’ t last long enough, others that the camera is loud, although they all agree that the 5D Mark II is a fantastic camera.

While the cameras are getting smaller and lighter, the good lenses are larger and heavier. This combination makes it quite hard to hold the camera comfortably with a telephoto lens, for example.

Most of the salient points concerning the 5D2 have been covered in previous reviews. Reviewers on many different websites have covered virtually every feature the camera has, so there is no need for that.   There is no greater value per pixel on the market. Combined with Canon L lenses, no user will have an excuse for not creating more than one outstanding image on every photo shoot.

No doubt there are cameras that will shoot more frames per second, have superior autofocus systems, total waterproofing, and so on.
