Now, before the flaming comes on in the comments, a few observations:ġ. In fact, the camera has an almost legendary status in the photographic community and many serious hobbyists and professionals alike still rely on this camera for their best work. If many of the best fine art and landscape photographers were able to use this camera for years, it should be good enough for the vast majority of photographers.
FULL FRAME VS MICRO 4 3 FULL
Finally, while current full frame cameras are better, it is easily safe to say that the image quality out of this beast is good enough for professional use and making large prints (I have personally made 40×30″ prints from this camera that look outstanding). The 1Ds II has seen photos published in the best photo magazines and has been used for gallery exhibitions by a large contingent of photographers. Second, throughout the mid and later 2000s, this camera was used for a HUGE amount of professional work, from landscapes to fashion. First, when it was released, the 16.7MP resolution was so far above the competition that it remained Canon’s flagship until 2007. However, I view it as a benchmark camera for a few reasons. Obviously, modern full frame cameras like the Canon 5D Mark II, Nikon D700 and upcoming Canon 1D X and Nikon D4 will outperform this body. It is certainly not a new camera, having been released way back in 2004. When it was released, it retailed for $8,000 US. When it was released, people were astounded by its extremely high resolution and amazing image quality.
The Canon 1Ds Mark II was the second professional grade full-frame (35mm size) camera released by Canon. So I have pitted my little Micro 4/3 cameras against a legend in the camera world: The Canon 1Ds Mark II. So, before the very last of my DSLR gear goes away in the next week or so, I decided to set up a little test to see in reality how they perform vs what I was shooting. I had been extremely pleased with the image quality out of my new cameras, and surprised that in print I essentially can’t tell them apart from my old Canon files. These cameras are at the top of the Micro 4/3 format of mirrorless Compact System Cameras and are large sensor interchangeable lens cameras that can provide very high image quality in a very small package. So over the last year or so have sold almost all my DLSR equipment and transitioned entirely to Micro 4/3, namely the Panasonic GH2 and GX1. I’ll all the details for another post, but it was primarily to reduce size and weight. Sensor Shootout: Panasonic GH2 vs Panasonic GX1 vs Canon 1Ds Mark IIĪs many of you are aware by now, I have recently made the switch from Canon DSLRs to the micro 4/3 system.
