2008, Nov 22, I get the call while I am traveling back from the GWOC.!! So here are my first images from the 5D2. Nothing stellar, but the detail is exactly like the 1Ds3.

Great Shots. Can't wait to get mine. Hope we see some video action as well.
Cheers

I'd suggest getting rid of these pictures. You probably can't find a worse time/location (weather condition) to test your new toy than this. Go to Tibet where there's blue sky and fresh air.

Congrats on being one of the first to post mk ii stuff - we've posted them all to the 5d wiki samples page planet5d.com

Nice shots.

Giovanni,
I'll delete it if it's rude.
Also take into account the conditions of the shoot, and the fact that I have never used DPP before (I find out now there is a learning curve).
I think, in better conditions, it'll be more positive

just dropped by this link again..thanks pbase for erasing the very motivated comments, by a pro who has being shooting for 30 years all over the world, about those shots..right, just leave only the positive silly unmotivated comments and make canon marketing happy, but keep in mind that as I many and many serious pros since awhile are getting tired of canon attitude and products

Hi Lecter congratulations! I'm still waiting for mine :( I played with some of your no_adustments photos in Photoshop (+ Dfine2) and DPP. But I must say Dfine + Dust & Scretches remove plugin did a better job then DPP :) You should give it a try ;)

Thanks for taking the trouble of posting your pictures. Since you're one of the lucky few to already actually shoot with it, I have a question for you (cannot wait until the full reviews are out):

Did you have any banding noise problems while using high iso and/or low iso with long shutter speeds in dark circumstances? This has been a particular problem with canon 20D up to 50D and 5D (even 1D). I personally experienced rather heavy banding noise while shooting night scenes (iso 100) using a tripod. High iso didn't seem to make any difference. A very annoying problem and it will influence my decision on purchasing one. Thanks for your comment and trouble of looking into this.

(By the way: I can live with grainy noise on high iso settings though)

The weather must be horrible! No more blue sky after Olympics.

Congratulations Rob. Good luck and enjoy your new camera!! So far, looks promissing. I would like to see a low iso, head and shoulders portrait.

Wow, the new 5D MkII, really want to know its IQ and high ISO performance.

Thanks for sharing, look forward to seeing more samples.
Guest 23-Nov-2008 16:23
Are these JPEGs straight out of the camera, or RAW files processed in DPP? Can you post sample crops at higher ISO settings like 3200 and 6400?

You seem to have one of the earliest copies of the camera. Thanks for sharing!
