Features for Canon EOS 5D Mark II

21.1 Megapixel full frame CMOS sensor
For the ultimate in creative shooting, the EOS 5D Mark II features a
full frame CMOS sensor (36mm x 24mm). With no cropping or
magnification effects, enjoy a true wide angle experience through
the large, bright viewfinder. Redesigned pixels minimise noise,
while a 21.1 Megapixel resolution surpasses the standards demanded
by the leading picture agencies.
DIGIC 4
Canon’s DIGIC 4 works with the EOS 5D Mark II’s image sensor to
deliver outstanding reproduction of colours and subtle tonal
gradations. DIGIC 4 also delivers split-second start-up times, Face
Detection AF in Live View mode, and additional HD movie recording.
High ISO
For handheld shooting in low light, the EOS 5D Mark II offers ISO
speeds of up to 6400. For dark scenes where using flash is
undesirable, this can be expanded to an incredible ISO 25600.
Full HD movie recording
The EOS 5D Mark II complements outstanding still imaging
capabilities with Full HD (1080) video recording. Users can even
shoot video to memory card without losing the ability to capture
still images. An HDMI connection allows High Definition playback of
footage and images on an HDTV.
3.0” High Resolution LCD
The 3.0” Clear View LCD features 920,000 dot resolution, wide
viewing angle and dual anti-reflective coatings – allowing
ultra-detailed image review in a variety of conditions. Live View
displays real-time images on the LCD, offering three types of auto
focus: Quick AF, Live AF, and Face Detection Live AF, which locks
onto faces detected in the frame.
Up to 3.9 frames per second
The EOS 5D Mark II offers continuous shooting at 3.9 frames per
second. When shooting JPEGs to a UDMA card, maximum burst is limited
only by card capacity.

9-point AF + 6 Assist AF points
Precision auto focus is assured by Canon’s AF system, which employs
9 selectable points and 6 Assist AF points.
EOS Integrated Cleaning System
Canon’s built-in dust prevention system offers three ways of
guarding images against the effects of dust: reduction of internal
dust generation; an in-camera sensor cleaning mechanism; and the
ability to map stubborn dust spots for removal with Digital Photo
Professional software (included).
Durable, compact design
With a magnesium alloy construction, environmental protection and
shutter durability of 150,000 releases, the EOS 5D Mark II is
equally suited to location or studio work.
