5DII for Me Too

Author: ODB

With due respect to Diamond and all the other Nikon shooters, the most anticipated camera in recent memory, the Canon 5d Mark II was released a few weeks ago. It has been virtually impossible to find over the last few weeks since its Thanksgiving release. This is obviously Canon’s upgrade to the much revered 5d, which was the must have camera for wedding and studio photographers in recent years, and I was not expecting to find it available for months. The huge demand is because it is the only full frame camera in Canon’s line up under $7k. The upgraded 5d goes 21megapixels and is the only camera in Canon’s line up that also shoots HD video – in 1080p. Its low light sensitivity makes flashes obsolete. I am so excited that I have been checking the FedEx shipping page for 3 days straight, like a kid counting down until Christmas. Well, Santa is set to arrive tomorrow and was last seen leaving Charlotte, NC a few hours ago. I’ll keep you posted.
