Отзывы о Фотоаппарат Canon EOS 5D Mark II Body

This camera has elevated my images 10 fold. It is a little larger than the T2i I was previously using but I can't talk enough about it. I hear the 5D MIII (or whatever they may call it) is coming down the tracks but if you are serious about photography and want to invest in good lenses and a body, this is a must have body. I won't bore you on "the auto-focus blah blah blah... and the low light etc. etc. etc.", just get it! :-)

Вообще, могу сказать, что любая фотокамера - это просто инструмент в руках фотографа. Если вы ожидаете, что купив ее, вы автоматически начнете получать шедевры, и она изменит вашу жизнь – вы идете неверным путем.
Все зависит лишь от умения и рук фотографа.

Very disappointing camera. There is no auto focus function during video recording. You have to focus manually. So recording a moving object, is almost impossible.The auto focus that the camera offers, works only when you are NOT recording (or the recording will be interrupted).Unfortunality Canon has no plans to make a new firmware where auto focus is implemented.Therefore I regret my purchase of my Canon 5D Mark II deeply.Richard.

I spent 6 months trying to decide between this lens and the 24 70 Zeiss Vario Sonnar (Sony). It was a tough call to finally make this decision. In the end I really wanted the extra zoom range this lens provides. Saving $600.00 doesn't hurt either. Aware that many minor flaws could be addressed in after-processing, I finally made this purchase.I have other Zeiss lenses including another Vario Sonnar and now that I have this lens I can say that the Zeiss lenses are optically superior, but the difference is minor. I'm keeping this lens and I'm happy with it. (The 5D Mark II provides nice support as well -- no complaints).The build quality of this lens is excellent -- completely satisfied.Center sharpness is excellent across the zoom range.Edge sharpness is fair to occasionally disappointing, but not worse than expected.Vignetting is pronounced at the 24mm end with noticeable distortion but correctable.CA (red/green) is most obvious at the 24mm end and pretty bad at the edges, again not worse than expected and at least partially correctable. I was very pleased to see no center CA even under stressful conditions.Auto focus speed is impressive.The built in IS is icing on the cake. I was able to use it to advantage right away and not raise the ISO. I shot successfully with the lens at 105mm and a shutter speed of 1/80th sec. -- impressed again.I give this lens 4 stars for overall optical quality.I give this lens 5 stars for overall price/performance value.The camera build quality is excellent. Controls are well laid out and the camera is easy to use. The battery charges quickly and the battery life is excellent.------------------------------------------------------The purchase experience through Amazon was frustrating, but in the end a good deal. I decided to take them up on the 12 month-no-interest deal. Four phone calls and two days of irritation later it went through.

I'm a very serious amateur photographer, and have been shooting Canon digital cameras since 2003. I purchased the 5D Mark II to replace my trusty 20D. Waited out the 40D, 50D, and 5D to get just the right camera, and from my time shooting today, it was worth the wait and premium over the crop cameras. I justified the additional cost this way: Rather than spending another $1,200 on a 16-35 lens that would yield ~26-48mm on the crop camera, I spent it on the 5D, which also gets me video capability. I can now get full use of my 24-105 for wide angle, and that lens really shines on this camera. My 70-200 is much more useful for closer quarters as well. I'm thankful that Canon didn't get the 50D right (sorry 50D buyers, but that's my opinion), as it forced my hand on this camera.Pros:* Focus seems faster and more accurate than my 20D, which I'm sure could use some adjusting after 40K images. I've found myself letting the 5D select the focus points more often, which I never did on my 20D (focus center, frame shot, shoot). I see no reason for any more focus points than it has for the type of shooting I do, but then I've never used a 1 series (Lord help me if I do).* Screen -- simply amazing when moving up from 20D* Viewfinder -- beautiful, bright, almost total coverage vs. looking through a cave in the crop cameras* Image Quality -- Wow. High ISO, low noise. Easily 3 stops better than my 20D. Have only shot a few raw shots (24MB!!!), and will be doing some comparison tonight. JPEG in camera looks amazing, and they aren't displayed with noise reduction in camera.* Build -- very solid, great shutter sound, buttons where they belong* Usability -- highly usable menus, adjustments, modes -- if you've shot Canon before, no surprises here* Fixed small things, like when you accidentally go from Play to shooting, or close the view, it takes you back to the last picture you viewed vs. making you start over (reference 20D -- maybe this is fixed on others since then as well)* Battery -- seems like they beefed it up appropriately for the large screen & live-view needsCons:* Huge file sizes -- Better buy an external disk array for storage. I don't (and most people don't) really need 21 MP -- 15 beautiful MP would be better (imagine the high ISO IQ if they didn't push this to 21MP to stay in the race with Sony & Nikon!). I'm experimenting using the Medium setting (about 11 MP) to see if IQ is as good proportional to size. That will be much more usable file size for most work.* Nits on custom functions -- settings don't save unless you "Menu" back out after selecting them* Current cost of second battery (swear they were $79 a month ago, now $145!!!)I can't comment much on video yet, but have used enough to say that it isn't terribly practical to the average shooter. You shouldn't even consider that this is going to replace a HD camcorder for family shooting (though you may still get away with trying to justify this to your non-photography-buff spouse). I didn't buy it for the video, so I'm not going into detail on that.Bottom line:Amazing camera if you can afford it. Looking forward to putting 100K images through it in its lifetime. Hope I can afford the storage! Lemme know if you bought the battery grip and it is too big for your hands -- that is my next purchase.

В общем, это достойная камера, которая держит марку на уровне Nikon D700 и Sony A900, без явного превосходства или отставания. Рекомендую тем, кто ценит экосистему Canon с её сервисами, аксессуарами и поддержкой, особенно если снимаете в RAW и не гонитесь за максимальной скоростью. Для профессиональной работы подойдёт, но стоит взвесить все сравнения с альтернативами.

This is my first SLR, new to photography and could not believe the ease of use and image quality!!! I have hard time to put this camera down!!! Can't imagine using something else! I was debating for few months between 7d and 5d markii, and glad i choose this one! Now i need to figure all the potential this camera have! I also purchased 24-70mm f2.8 and love it. Not sure? JUST GO FOR IT!!!! You will never regret it!!!

В общем, эта камера полностью оправдала ожидания и даже превзошла их, особенно если вы переходите с кропа. Я долго сомневался, стоит ли брать именно эту модель, но теперь жалею только о том, что не сделал это раньше - для любителей качественной фотографии она идеальна. Рекомендую всем, кто хочет настоящий полный кадр без компромиссов.

Конечно разница в качестве снимков по сравнению с 50 кой разительная, особенно при неблагоприятных условиях 5ка вне всяких похвал...

Не для репортажки.

После моих мучений с шумом на всех предыдущах камерах - это просто отдохновение! :-))) Рабочим ISO может быть и 800 и даже 1600 без проблем, полученые шумы на ура убираются NetImage, в итоге получаются даже очень приличные картинки! Все остальное - также на высоте. Тут много писали о срипящей крышке батарейного...

Как я до этого снимал ими на 50Д - ума не приложу:)...

Заказал. В течение недели пришлют. Интересно, чем нынешние камеры отличаются от первых той же марки. Какие конкретно "косяки" исправлены производителем именно в этой модели за 2 прошедших года?

I do own other p&s cameras besides Canon but admit to only owning Canon DSLRs; I'm kind of tied into the Canon lenses at this point. I tried an Olympus as that was the brand I use for film, but was not at all happy with their DSLR image quality. As for Canon, I have owned the Rebel 300, 20d and 40d. The 40d is a great camera and quite usable for the kind of photography I enjoy which is mostly landscape. I decided to take the plunge and go for a full frame camera despite the price. I have only used the 5d II about 4 times so far and only twice with the 40d for comparison, but feel pretty confident I can report on the differences. The 2 cameras are nearly identical in color space and dynamic range not to mention resolution per pixel. In other words if the image pixel count is the same on both cameras, you would be hard pressed to tell which camera took the picture. The 5d II just has more pixels. The 5d II trumps the 40d in several other areas too.* First is the high ISO range; I am very happy with 800-1600 ISO images and I use to only like to settle for ISO 100.* The 24-105L lens becomes a fantastic walk around lens because of the 21mp sensor, images can easily be cropped tight to a distant subject.* My 17-40L is now a true wide angle lens!* Shadows at low ISOs have more depth than the 40d.* Lens micro adjustments can make autofocus nearly perfect. My 70-300 f5.6 back focuses on both bodies, but I was able to easily correct the issue on the 5d II. I still have to manually adjust on the 40d.* The back screen is much more usable; I even started using live view mode for some shots.* Because of the resolution and dynamic range RAW images are quite flexible so I don't have to take as many variations.* Multiple resolutions to choose from even in RAW.* Better weather sealing is comforting as I do take the camera to places where it is misty and damp.* I've taken a couple of test movies which look lovely. I just don't see myself using this feature too often.There is always room for improvement so here is my wish list for the mark III.* An internal flash for filling in shadows.* Frame rate of 5/sec would be nice even though I rarely need it.* The ability to select the range for the auto ISO feature; I'd love to be able to limit the range to 200-800 for certain situations.* A pivoting back display is something that I miss from my old Nikon point and shoot cameras. It's really useful when shooting macros or for events where your shooting over people's heads.

Сравнил со своим старым 40D. По шумам пятак выигрывает, правда, ненамного, захватывает большую картинку, и широкоуголшьные снимки у него ярче, выразительнее. Если вам принципиально...

The 5D's strengths seem to be in its handling of low light and it's wider frame if doing landscapes. I've been photographing people so the wider frame wasn't as important as handling the darker situations without a flash. When people state the fps are lower they really are and the camera is much slower taking consecutive images than my 50D. The 50D is the machine gun of cameras and I am happily taken with it as well. The fact many not so great photographers in my area brag they have the 5D hasn't seem to improved their images but it is a testimony to how impressive a reputation the camera has gotten. I'm finding the wonders of 21MP a great deal harder to throw around than my previous camera images even on a maxed out duo core quad system. Of course you can reduce this with the settings but it's hard to down grade such amazing amounts of detail. Keep up the great work Canon...and fire that guy who makes the icon '( )' symbols for metering..wtf. :)Not all the lenses that fit the 50D also fit the 5D so be aware...

В общем, аппарат превзошел ожидания, особенно в плане качества фото в сложных условиях. Для тех, кто ищет надежную полнокадровую камеру с хорошим динамическим диапазоном, это отличный выбор. Рекомендую всем, кто серьезно увлекается фотографией.
