Canon EOS 5DDIWA member Digit.no have published a preview of the Canon 5D, a new 12.8 megapixel full-frame digital SLR camera, which also has a few sample photos.

“The few test images I managed to shoot showed that the image quality is excellent at all ISO settings. A new and exciting feature is the “Picture Style” settings, which at first glance gave an “amateur” touch to the camera, but Canon’s explaination of the concept gave reasonable meaning. It’s an ingenious way of simplifying complicated settings to simulate the qualities of various film types. In its extreme consequence, the EOS 5D has a total of 48.816 possible settings combinations. “Picture Style” gives the photographer preset settings of colour, sharpness and contrast to match the subject type. The choices are Standard, Portrait, Landscape, Neutral, Faithful and Monochrome. “
