Steves Digicams' Canon EOS 1D Mark II First Look
Steves Digicamshave posted a first look at the new 8 megapixel professional DSLR from Canon, the EOS 1D Mark II, complete with sample images.
“As of the time of this review, the Canon EOS-1D Mark II is the world’s fastest pro-digital SLR camera. It combines a new 8.2 million pixel CMOS sensor with Canon’s DIGIC II imaging engine and captures eight-megapixel JPEG images at 8.5fps in continuous bursts of up to 40 frames and RAW images up to 20 frames. Canon took their popular 4.1 megapixel EOS-1D and doubled the resolution of the imaging sensor, doubled the size of the high speed buffer memory and reevaluated, redesigned and in some cases, actually reinvented the technology that makes the new Mark II camera the most reliable and responsive professional digital SLR on the market.”
