before I start really, I want to say: Buy this camera if you have a little idea about the shooting and they just want to make only beautiful, wonderful shots! Please buy safely!
So I had a Pentax DSLR Olympus and. Then I switched to Canon 450D, then the 600D, then the 60D.
Then when I was still not happy with my pictures .... I thought of beer times with full frame. Unfortunately, very expensive, but lo and behold, the EOS 5D has become very affordable!
So buy after a moment's thought. The actual benefits of the full format are known my My drying by far. This includes the good noise performance at high ISO, the greater the a sensor (no idea how to say that) clear, beautiful, better picture generated. There are even more determined. But I would like to enumerate nothing but tell only my experience. I had to compare many APS-C cameras with very high-quality optics. But with the 5D can already be done with a normal Zoommobjektiv nicer pictures. It's just a different feeling. The images get its own character. I just feel good when I look at the PC the images I've done because I am impressed by their "brilliance".
The 5D has all the functions you need. You can adjust its settings (Quick Access Keys) individually. The Serienbildgeschwindkeit ranges (other than sports, such as. Skating) completely out. 3 frames per second!
The display is sufficient, it is enough! The resolution of 12 Mpixel too! Look at the pictures that I have uploaded here!
The service I find very pleasant. So far the best service I had on a camera.
I especially like the 5D, the size and weight. It is slightly larger and heavier than the whole Kleinkrams "600D", "1000D" etc.
So they are kept really nice in the hand. At the same time it is not too great, so that they no longer wanted to take.
As standard Obketiv I recommend the Canon EF 24-85 USM 3,5-4,5. It gets super on the 5D and is technically not figure worse than an expensive L Obkektiv!
What remains to say: The 5D is currently the full-frame DSLR güstigste you can get. I love this camera and am certain that I never want to have an APS-C camera again!
Long live the full-size! And Canon!
What also speaks for Canon, they have a lot of old lenses that are affordable and top notch.
Unfortunately I can not post any negative entries for the 5D!
Oh if someone wonders if the camera in 2012, is still relevant: my answer is YES!
