Armando, I am more interested to know why you wanted to purchase a 5DMKII in 2019? How do you plan to incorporate it into your workflow?
@devinwarning30435 жыл бұрын
This camera is still AMAZING for photography honestly (I still use my 5D Mii) I see almost no reason to upgrade other than maybe a better screen because the quality and colors are awful on my screen. But I find the video okay, I certainly would never use it on a client project unless I needed something smaller than my C100.
@charles.vernier5 жыл бұрын
It's still a really great camera. I only just recently switched to a Fuji XT3. But I'm still keeping my 5D around. The only think that i find lacking that new cameras do better is more AF focus points, more FPS, and AF for video. Otherwise this camera really holds up. AND it shoots RAW video with magic lantern :)))
@mondobytes5 жыл бұрын
The 5D Mark II has this very unique look that almost looks like film, it's a bit grainy and the colors are amazing. Coupled that with Magic Lantern and you can record internal 2K RAW video! Upscale that to 4K and it looks better than 90% of the DSLR/Mirrorless cameras available today, truly a unicorn if you ask me.
@MIRAJADESIGN5 жыл бұрын
@@mondobytes Thanks for responding. I own this camera. It was my first DSLR purchased in 2012. I also have Magic Lantern on it but haven't tried RAW video yet. Since I picked up the 6DMKII last year I rarely use my 5DMKII. I have been wondering if I should sell it or put it to use. Sometimes I miss taking photos with it. Looking back at some of my old photos I feel like they look more like I took them with a 35mm rather than a DSLR.

You should update this to include how to check the dual microphones in video how do you know if the left and right mics are both working also cameras with screens that can be moved around. I got a used B500 to replace my L340 both Nikon cameras. I'm not sure why HDMI isn't working it could be the HDMI cable I ordered or my TV not seeing the signal correctly. I purchased on eBay but this video was still very helpful. I updated the firmware, I asked the seller why it was not already updated and as they'd only used it a couple of times and it was left stored away it was on an old update. The box was from Argos so it was easy for me to check when it was first and last sold in the store.

Most modern cameras normally can do well over 100k actuation but look more at the condition as video does not cause actuation just as an electronic shutter is less wear. I recently sold my Sony NEX switching to Fuji and that had mid 16k actuation and never had an issue. There are Web sites you can go on when you take a picture and upload, paste into the site and it will tell you how many actuation.
