Canon 5D Mark II Samples Shot

[Ralf Nabong]

Here is a sample shot of the Canon 5D Mark II (Pre-prod) I've taken when it was lent to me by Canon Phil. last October 1.

Canon 5D Mark II, Canon 400mm f/2.8, Kenko 2X TC, Manfrotto Gimbal Head, Manfrotto Tripod. - Processed from Jpeg file format
ISO 1600, Focal Length - 800mm, 1/1000 @ f/5.6

Great capture capture with a 5DM2 at 800mm Bong. You exposed the whites very well. Looks like the 5DM2 can handle BIF's too.

Nice shot Bong.... seems AF of the 5D2 is not so bad after all, it can catch a BIF even with a 2x TC!

Yup. As long as the lens can give the body at least f/5.6, the AF should work as expected.

Nice combo you got there for BIF Bong.

That's promising, come to think of it when I had the old 5D it used to produce some good BIFs given good light so it can only get better with the MkII.
