Canon 5D Mark II Review: Image Quality Fantastic

Stock photographer Rich Legg has offered a review of the new Canon 5D Mark II in a guest post at Photography Bay. Upgrading from the Canon EOS 5D, Legg’s interest in the 5D Mark II centered around improving the resolution of his stock photograpy:

The image quality from the new camera is fantastic.  I find the color representation of the unedited images to be more true on the Mark II compared to my original 5D.  The images are a bit cooler, but I always seemed to be cooling down my 5D images with a white balance adjustment anyway.  After one session of working with the large images though, I jumped online and ordered a memory upgrade to bring my production iMac from 2gb to 4gb of memory.  I found that I was quickly slowing down my system when working on several of the full-resolution images at once.

Legg also discusses the 5D Mark II’s ISO performance, AF, and yes even the black dots so you’ll want to check out his full report here.
