NEW Canon 5D Mark II announced

Thanks to the crave blog, here are the specific details of the upcoming Canon 5D Mark II. They say the body only price will be $2,699. It’s pretty exciting!!!!

  • 21-megapixel full-frame sensor
  • 1920×1080 video at 30fps
  • Maximum ISO 25,600
  • Digic 4 image processor
  • 3.9fps burst unlimited JPEG/14 raw with UDMA card
  • 15-point AF
  • 920,000-dot 3-inch LCD
  • Live View

One of the 5D bodies matched with the newly released Zeiss lenses and a 32GB Sandisk Compact Flash would probably make me wave goodbye to 35mm film forever. The Zeiss 50mm 1.4 will run around $1000.

Canon have also released information on the new Canon G10 that’s due for release in October. It sports 15 megapixels and a 28-140mm F2.7-4.5 lens and is going to be the same $499 as the G9.
