General Comments

Easily the Canon EOS 5D is my favourite camera, sits neatly in my bag alongside a plethora of other canon cameras, yet this is always the first out of my bag. most shots on my website (www.fazackarley.com/) were taken with a 5d.

Being a wedding photographer I need reliable gear that's capable of producing beautiful pictures that my brides will treasure for decades - the 5d meets all my demanding specifications. I would totally recommend this camera to anyone & have done on many occasions.
