Fully consider the differences if you are evaluating this and a 40D For those considering if they should step up to a full frame sensor camera like the 5D, the advantages may not be fully obvious at first glance.
Yes, we all know that an 80mm lens in this camera will provide a similar field of view compared to a 50mm on a 40D due to the 1.6x "crop factor". What many people do not realize is that the crop factor affects the usable aperture as well. F4.5 on this camera will feel identical to F2.8 on the 40D. In other words if you need approximately F...

9% (1 of 11) Users Found This Review Helpful | | | Canon 5D This camera is superior in almost every way. I quibble a bit about the location of some of the controls. For example, the on/off switch is not in a great location, Nikon has a better location for this on its cameras. This type of complaint aside, which is entirely subjective in nature, You can't find anything better.

28% (2 of 7) Users Found This Review Helpful | | | Canon 5D As a wedding photographer I love the Canon 20D, nice and light and at a good price I can afford six of them. But, recently I started shooting for a local magazine and felt I needed a better camera. The full frame feature is the number one reason for this purchase. I found that I missed getting the full effect of my lenses such as the 28-70mm, 15mm and my recent purchase of the 85mm. The magnification was just too much. I've used the camera at all of my weddings this year and am very pleased in t...

As a photographer, I am not actually good enough to shoot with film (a painful, but true confession); however, because of the shortcomings of digital cameras, for what I like to do (late night, low light stuff - with a lot of black and not much light!) I have cycled through endless film approaches, in hopes of capturing that perfect moody image...
Then, to overcome the problems of small negative film, I have cycled through medium format film approaches (Bronica ETRS, SQ-Ai, Hasselbla...

94% (34 of 36) Users Found This Review Helpful | | | Fantastic.. Great.... packs a great punch.!!! Having used the 20D 30D and now the 5D I can not tell you how much better it is.
The resolution and saturation of the full frame sensor just leaves the 1.6 frame 20/30D in the shade.
The camera is almost identical smaller framed brothers so making the change to the 5D is easy.
The only thing you will notice is the speed.
The 5D is slower than the 20D and 30D so if you are looking for 8fps then you will have to go the next step.
Oh and the battery grip is also a mus...
