This is by far the most professional and relevant set of comparisons that I've seen so far. It is well worth waiting for this video to load if your connection isn't up to speed. Can't wait for part 2.

I agree Bill. No surprises here. No amount of firmware updating is going to fix this camera's crappy preamps.

I used the 24-70mm L lens with a neutral profile, (I believe that sets saturation to zero). From what I've read the L's (and maybe canon lenses generally) tend to give you pretty saturated colours. I...

My first commercial shoot with the 5D II. I was going for a combination of showing-the-workings-of-the-app and having a bit of a visual hook to get people interested. "Scratching the world" sequence...
