Historically, full frame digital

sensors were reserved only

for the very top end of Digital

SLR lines. The EOS 5D is the

3rd camera in the EOS Digital

SLR line to use a full-frame

sensor, eliminating the lens

conversion factor so that

lenses function as they would

on a 35mm camera. With a

12.8 Megapixel CMOS sensor,

the 5D produces a large file

with enough information to

reduce electronic distortions

out of the camera. Besides

being a welcome feature to

wide-angle enthusiasts, the

sensor also realizes the full

potential of Canon’s tilt-shift

lenses. Add the choice of 3

focusing screens, including

one with grid lines, and the

EOS 5D is the perfect camera

for creating fast, huge digital

architectural photos. The

EOS 5D also adds a 9-point

AF sensor, with 6 additional

supplemental focusing

points, which bring a new

level of accuracy to focus

tracking. These new features

combine with a new 3.5%

spot meter and

Canon’s “Picture

Style” feature,

resulting in

superior color

accuracy and

much, much

more.

Long before I switched to Canon digital SLRs, I made

a list of features that I required in a digital camera. Canon

was the first (and remains the only) manufacturer to meet

my requirements: full frame sensor, high pixel count,

bright LCD review, rapid operation and superlative image

quality. I bought one of the first EOS-1Ds cameras

available, and every iteration since has only improved

upon its versatile, intelligent and reliable design. Now with

the EOS 5D I've got another great option. A higher

resolution full-frame camera in a compact, lightweight

body that affords me more versatility than ever before.

The high resolution, wide tonal range sensor made this

kitchen image possible. Note the extreme density

range–from bright chrome to dark wood–and the mixed

lighting. The Canon sensor takes mixed light sources in

stride, allowing faithful image capture without

supplemental lighting.”
