Review on Old Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark II Full Frame DSLR Camera (Body Only) - Review, Specifications, and Pricing by Janis Ziemelis ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Poor quality, not suitable for use.

Since advancement does not halt, as the owner of the Canon 5D Mark 2, he considered using the camera. The 5D Mark 2 remained in the window until 2022, and there are now 9 glossy magazines available for the price of $199. I rented this camera for $175 per day to compare the Canon 5D Mark 4 and 5D Mark 2 before making a purchase. Additionally, I contrasted the Canon RP with the 5D Mark 2, and the RP only lost two heads to the 5D Mark 2. However, the fact that the Canon website only lists the 5D and 1D as professional models and the Mark 2 as "For an amateur" is not the only issue. As I'll explain further, I understood that I needed to replace the camera. Oh, we went to shoot head-on with two cameras using the same Sigma Art 35mm 1.4 f2.0, iso 100 A f1,4 lens, and I was pleased to get my hands on the 5D Mark 4. When I got home, I was astounded to see that the 5D Mark 2's images are superior than those of the 5D Mark 4's. I came to the conclusion that the Canon EOS 5D Mark 4 does not represent an evolutionary leap in photo quality and, in fact, is even worse than the 5D Mark 2. Given the abundance of exciting new electronic chips in the form of a screen, Mark 4, I cannot see the benefit of upgrading from the 5D Mark 2.

Pros
  • Touch screen, you can use your finger to choose focus points while shooting straight on the screen.
Cons
  • The matrix is no more artistic than the Canon 5D Mark 2 2022 or worse.
