If you own a 5D Mark II, your probably had today marked on your calander as the day that Canon was going to update your camera.

Time to break out the expense account, ladies and gentlemen. This is the Sea & Sea MDX-PRO 5D Mark II. It’s a fancy waterproof cover for the Canon 5D Mark II. It costs ¥280,000, or just under $3,000. Yeah → Read More
Watch the video after the break if you have any doubt that the Canon 5D Mark II with its 1080p recording mode was a game changer. Astounding that it came off of a $2699 DSLR. If you like this one, hit up the Vimeo link for the full collection. → Read More

Hot on the heels of the D90 we find the 21-megapixel EOS 5D Mark II, a $2,699 monster with a 50-25,600 ISO range with a full-frame 24x36mm CMOS sensor. The kit with lens costs $3,499. Most interestingly is the 1920 x 1080 pixel HD video at 30 fps. While these new video features are a bit hard to stomach – DSLRs take pictures well but rarely take good video – but clearly some of this… → Read More
Oh man, if only I were very, very rich. To have a full-frame professional SLR, the joy! So it looks like the upcoming 5D Mk II is going to be an interesting camera. Its detail retention at 12800 ISO is supposed to be equal to the previous 5D’s at 3200, which is fantastic and represents nearly a 2-stop advantage.
