    The Canon EOS 5D camera bridges the gap between enthusiasts cameras and semi pro.
    The 12.8 megapixels is more than enough for up to A2 without interpolating pixels and the results from this camera are superb.
    I particularly like night time shots and even at ISO800 the noise is very well controlled. No sensor clean
    Now the 5DMk II is out, expect to see this for under £1k and it will be a bargain at that price.
    Highly reccomended.

    I've had a 5D since March 2007 and I love it. I have done wedding shoots, portrait sessions, landscapes and macro photography and this camera handles anything you throw at it.

    It is helped by my bag of 6 L series lenses which help optimise the full frame sensor.

    With the release of the replacement (EOS 5D Mk2), this camera will drop in value very soon and would make a great purchase as a second camera.

    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. ...

    Due to digital cameras favouring the centre of the lens, dark cornering can appear on your photographs, due to full frame. The using of the Canon L series lenses can help to avoid this, but expect to pay the price.

    I am an amateur who got into digital photography 3 years ago. I bought the 20D this year but decided I needed a second camera when sat with a long zoom in a hide - action happens all over and I can't keep changing lenses. I'm a canon man because I now have their lenses and other EOS attachments, so I considered the new 400D and the 30D as second cameras. In the end I was impressed by the 5Ds write ups and the desire to be able to produce close to professional images. The 5D can produce the ima ...

    The Canon EOS 5D is a first class digital camera when used with the Canon specified lenses for this camera.

    Image quality is superb, without producing too much unnatural, unwanted, over the top contrast and resolution.
