Canon EOS 5d Digital SLR
cannon5d slr
The Canon Eos 5d Digital SLR Camera follows in the great tradition of Canon's SLR line of film cameras. The Canon EOS 5d has gotten rave reviews including (Popular Photography's camera of the year). A powerful 12.8 megapixels of shooting power. Included is a new high resolution 2.5" LCD. The Canon EOS 5d can use over 50 different Canon Lenses. The 5d has a full frame sensor which enables it to use Canon's entire line of EF lenses with no conversion factor. The 5D's viewfinder doesn't have to be "cropped" the way it does with Digital SLRs having smaller than 35mm sensors. This makes framing and manual focusing much easier.
