The successor to the enormously popular EOS 5D improves on almost every aspect that the original was lacking. And by all measures, the EOS 5D Mark II is priced aggressively - when you consider the price of the EOS 1Ds Mark III, the 5D Mark II seems like a bargain. The camera is not too heavy, and we love the fact that Canon has improved its weather resistance and battery life. However, while having HD video is a nice add-on, it is definitely more important to have a viewfinder with a 100% coverage, more AF points, a faster burst mode and a dedicated button for ISO settings (there is plenty of space!) We didn't particularly care for the Creative Auto mode, and find it surprising that Canon decided to include such a feature in a camera of this class. The video feature is a great add-on, but we?re not sure it will be used much by professional photographers. Overall the EOS 5D Mark II has an awful lot to recommend it to the serious photographer.
