Pros
- Great picture even for 2022, reliable. The picture is better than that of 6d and 6d mark 2
Cons
- There are no shortcomings for his year. For 2022, such shortcomings are: slow focus, few focus points, no autofocus in video
Pros
- Definitely a cool option for a budget transition to FF. Very unpretentious, tolerates bad weather conditions, rain and frost. In my cold, the lens froze faster than the carcass. Even as it was filmed at a wedding with a cool videographer, he had a 1DX, which, in the heat, periodically stopped shooting due to overheating. And 5DM2 was drummed, which warmed the CSF a little))) Batteries were enough for a day of shooting 1200 - 1500 frames. Reliable memory cards - CF. Photo quality. If you shoot in RAW, then head and shoulders above the 60D, but worse than the 5DM3. I used all these cameras, I know exactly what I'm talking about.
Cons
- Now there may be a problem with buying CF flash drives, but there are no options.
Pros
- I will write briefly - technical characteristics)
Cons
- In comments.
Pros
- Wrote below
Cons
- Video - of course this is a camera and not a camera, but the video shoots crookedly and there is no autofocus ! The built-in microphone just ! they probably don’t even put them on budget cameras.
Pros
- Full frame Control Indestructible shutter
Cons
- Obsolete in 2022
Pros
- 1) Full-format matrix 24x35mm. It is convenient to control the depth of field and the width is really wide. 2) 21Mp. The detail of the pictures is excellent. Something that was a little lacking in the previous version of 5D. 3) Gorgeous screen 920,000 dots. The sharpness of an image can be assessed without the aid of a computer. 4) Video quality 1920 x 1080 30fps. pleased. For static "live videographies" very even. 5) "Priority of lights". Handy thing when shooting certain scenes. 6) "My menu". Quick access to frequently used functions. 7) The battery pack is like a "poured-in" sits. On the previous version 5D dangled. 8) Batteries last longer. 2 batteries are enough for 1400-1700 shots, if economical. Video energy eats without hesitation. 9) Camera noise at ISO 800-3200 is lower than on 5D (v.1), 1Ds MARK III and even 1D Mark III. 10) The quality of the pictures in RAW format was pleasing. 14-bit processing and a new nimble processor with improved algorithms at high ISO (1000-2022) give good results. Sunsets and sunrises are transmitted more accurately. 11) Modes C1, C2, C3 allow you to quickly switch between different shooting situations. 12) The menu has become more convenient: an external flash can be adjusted, shooting parameters can be displayed on a large screen (sometimes this is convenient). 13) The viewfinder is large and bright. 14) Separate adjustment of focusing accuracy for 20 lenses. Vesch! 15) MiniDVI output for connecting the camera to a TV. You can watch Full HD from the camera. 16) Shutter sound pleased, softer and quieter than 5D v.1 17) The case was rubberized and protected from moisture 18) Life-view has become better. 19) Macro focusing with screen magnification makes life easier. 20) I didn’t forget about protecting the matrix from dust. In the old five there was such a problem. 21) RAW files in 3 sizes. 22) 14-bit image processing 23) Vignotting correction directly in the camera with a large database of lenses and extenders 24) Several levels of correction for the brightness of dark areas of the image.
Cons
- 1) With a battery pack, it is not very convenient to control the joystick in the mode of shooting vertical frames. 2) At standard settings, the jpg quality is worse than that of NIKON D3X. Shuodav needs to be turned off. 3) It is unrealistic to take photos during the video. Focus is slow + noise is recorded. Those. video only for static or with a certain skill with manual control of focus and aperture. 4) You need an external stereo microphone. Mono sound is written as standard. 5) After 1D Mark III, the location of the points on the focusing screen is too in the center . Stretch them over the entire field + more points + 100% field of view. 6) Smart memory is needed + a lot. RAW files are 20-35 mega.7) The focusing system is worse than 1D MArkIII, but better than 5D v.1. You will have to believe it at dusk with a 24-105 4L lens. 8) The screen decently embellishes the picture. 9) It’s better to forget about budget optics. 10) Exposure compensation + -2EV in steps of 0.33 or 0.5. It could be expanded to + -3EV2022) I would like 5 frames per second, but then Canon will come on its tail2022) A stabilized matrix would also not hurt, but it's hard to wait. Canon makes too much money on optical stabilization.
Pros
- The build quality, the battery holds a charge for a long time, there is no hassle with lenses (compared to Nikon (my personal opinion)), I personally like the loud shutter sound.
Cons
- Iso still, in my opinion, is not perfect; The screen heats up when shooting video.
Pros
- Canon has applied almost all of its achievements in building cameras in this camera. Pleased with the ability to shoot FullHD video.
Cons
- Uncertain focus with low contrast compared to 1DsIII. Disgusting focusing in LiveView mode, you can forget about autofocus when shooting a video.
Pros
- Prior to that, I made use of 40D. When I upgraded to the Mark II, I noticed a significant improvement in the overall picture quality. SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER NOISE! ISO 3200 being utilized. The existence of proper alignment. One for one crop factor!
Cons
- This system is perfect in every way!
Pros
- Shooting video, large and sensitive sensor, low noise, high image quality, protected housing, shooting in "soap dish mode", dust removal system, convenient operation and a lot of settings? Auto ISO - convenient, huge screen, automatic brightness control - everything is super in ergonomics
Cons
- MOV - not all programs understand it + due to the highest quality, large size, you need to stock up on large and fast cards. To process Full HD video and RAW, you need a fairly powerful computer. No RAW support in Windows Vista 64-bit, i. E. viewing only through Canon software. When zooming when shooting video, autofocus is not silent, so either with your hands or turn off the "BIP" so as not to interfere much.
Pros
- the actual dimensions of the matrix, the screen resolution, the ability to shoot videos in full high definition, and so on. Everything has already been expressed, and you can find a description of my viewpoint in the comment I left.
Cons
- There are none that are fundamental, with the possible exception of the prices for dopas, for instance, native ones =), but you can get an analogous one for twenty dollars (2 accesses + charging) on eBay, for instance, which differs from the original mainly in that it does not have a chip.
Pros
- A lot has already been written about the merits and it's true.
Cons
- Low ergonomics, as for the video, but this is compared to the 7D, those who did not hold it in their hands can argue with me. From the shutter release, the recoil hits the eye. Plastic display, 7D looks like glass, not a single scratch for a year. Nine focus points, 7D has 19.
Pros
- Handling that is easy and comfortable, video that is of high quality, a wide dynamic range, and low noise.
Cons
- It just enrages me that the manufacturer has such a pig-headed attitude towards the 5D mark2, because the focus can wander wherever it pleases, independent of the class of optics. My opinion is that having 21 megapixels is also a disadvantage because there is a second device, the older 5D, and I can see that even when using the 24-70 2.8L lens, the mark delivers an image that is only half as sharp when all of the settings are the same. Indeed, and the weight of files with our volumes is 40 GB of material from each wedding, despite the fact that most people only print images that are no larger than 20 by 30. In my opinion, it would be beneficial if they increased the actual size of the pixel, since this would result in improved clarity, dynamic range, and noise levels. If we want to engage in DSLR video production on a professional level, we will need to purchase a second device in addition to a crop because the manufacturer purposefully does not support video at a frame rate of 60 frames per second, which is even available on the 550D.
Pros
- the presence, albeit uncomfortable, but still video filming. high resolution of 21 megapixels. live view, although inferior in convenience to other systems, is still there.
Cons
- low-quality intracameral jeep. disgusting creaky cover on the memory card compartment. focus bracketing is only 3 frames by 0.3 stops, just a frivolous decision . poor auto BB under artificial lighting, especially at temperatures below 3500 kelvin.
