NATURE Exceptional Image Quality, Unmatched Versatility ©2009 George Lepp. All Rights Reserved. Spectacular High-Resolution Capture The EOS 5D Mark II incorporates a 21.1 Megapixel Full-Frame CMOS Sensor that delivers still and video images of exceptional low noise and are unsurpassed in clarity, detail and color purity. The full-frame sensor enables you to use the entire range of Canon EF lenses with no need for conversion factors. For enhanced tonal reproduction, the EOS 5D Mark II incorporates Highlight Tone Priority, making gradations smoother and minimizing loss of highlight detail. The EOS 5D Mark II also features Lens Peripheral Illumination Correction, which automatically corrects for light fall-off at the corners. Using a database of EF lenses, this corrective system works automatically at the time of capture when shooting JPEGs. With RAW images, the same correction can be performed using Canon DPP software. Another image enhancement features the Auto Lighting Optimizer; it automatically adjusts brightness and contrast during image processing. 81 Rugged Dependability The EOS 5D Mark II body is made of lightweight magnesium alloy, making it easy to handle and transport without sacrificing strength and durability. The body is also highly weather resistant thanks to the extensive use of seals and gaskets to keep out moisture and dust. The weatherresistant design is complemented by the Canon Self Cleaning Sensor Unit. Part of the EOS Integrated Cleaning System, it removes dust on the imaging sensor using ultrasonic vibration. 83 Big, Bright, Clear View LCD Monitor A 3.0-inch Clear View LCD (920,000 dots/VGA) monitor provides a large, bright, highly detailed display. The increased resolution makes it possible to view images with far greater detail and enhances the Live View Function capabilities. 84 HDMI Output The camera provides an HDMI output for full-resolution digital transfer of Full HD video to monitors, Canon REALiS projectors and post-production equipment. Advanced Flash Photography The EOS 5D Mark II is fully compatible with the Canon Speedlite flash system. There are versatile solutions for macro photography such as the Macro Ring Lite MR-14EX, which features twin circular flash tubes that can be fired at equal or uneven power at ratios that can be varied over a six-stop range. The Macro Twin Lite MT-24EX provides a different, directional option for close-up, nature and macro photography. With either macro flash unit, one or more compatible EX-series Speedlites can be used as wireless Slaves for creative lighting solutions. Canon E-TTL II flash exposure control uses the camera's Evaluative metering sensor - the same sensor that reads ambient light. This sophisticated system compares light values and accurately calculates the flash output required for optimum illumination of the main subject and background. It ensures balanced, natural lighting, for example, when using fill flash. T" his is a great camera for outdoor and nature photographers! Its lightweight but sturdy body is easy to handle and perfect for field work. The 21.1 Megapixel Full-Frame CMOS Sensor captures every detail of the landscape. The large, high-resolution LCD monitor with Live View is a real benefit for previewing images in the field. I'm especially excited about the high-definition video capabilities, a feature that makes this camera one of the most innovative and versatile creative tools I've seen yet."
