Canon 5D Sample Images at Luminous Landscape

Mark Goldstein | Digital SLR Cameras | September 3, 2005 | 3 Comments

Canon EOS 5DLuminous Landscape editor Michael Reichmann has published some sample images taken with a pre-production Canon EOS 5D digital SLR, and alos posted his initial impressions of the image quality. As usual, it makes for interesting reading!

“There is no noise visible. None, even at 100% magnification. Skin tones are lovely and colour reproduction totally satisfying. There is considerable detail both in the black fur and the white. Dynamic range is excellent. Resolution appears to only be limited by the lens. Other test shots taken of static objects with some of Canon’s top lenses show this to indeed be the case.”

from the start they were wrong with the aps size ccd. but why so much hassle for nothing. there is a limit to packing pixels in a such small ccd.

Except now I'll be able to pick up a used 20D and 10-22mm lens for a good price and be set with a DSLR for a long time!

Thanks Canon!! smile
