I haven't tried uploading the Magic Lantern hack to increase the functionality of the 5D, but am thinking of it to get even more out of my modest full frame investments.

File sizes are reasonable, good contrast and color, great Canon full frame lenses.

You won't realized how important full frame is until you own one

is cleaner on the 30d)The full frame lens perspective advantage cannot be overstated

Slow frame rate, poor focus abilities, mediocre build, and the lack of the crop factor (your 500mm isn't an 800mm any more like it was on the 20D) will surely disappoint most of these shooters

I love what the full frame gives you for landscapes as well

It only uses EF lenses (the better but more expensive ones).I can't rave enough about the image quality on this 5D. To get full frame for this price is insane, I can't imagine using cropped sensor cameras ever again

Wanted to see if a full frame was worth the extra dollars but didn't want to spend a grand or more.

The Nikon full-frame 12 megapixel is astronomically costly, and the professional-series Canons are way, way outta my range

You'll want good glass for this camera, to squeeze everything you can out of that wonderful full frame sensor.

Most important point this classic full frame DSLR has, is IMAGE QUALITY

but I tend to shoot in good light, and at low ISOs I can't see how my images could be so much more improved if i picked up a more modern full frame.

Get this camera, the full frame makes your wide angle lens more effective.

Be warned that a full-frame camera will reveal the weaknesses and distortions of cheaper lenses so if you want to get the best results, invest into some quality lenses like Canons "L" pro quality lenses or research the cheaper ones to find which ones do well on full-frame cameras (like the bargain EF 50 f/1.8)

I just switched from a Nikon d5200, I am not bashing on crop sensors or Nikon, but this full frame is FREAKIN SWEET

And they did it at half the price that the cheapest full-frame Nikon goes for

It's fast, full framed, water sealed... and somewhere around $7500

Full frame makes it a lot easier to see through the camera lens since you get a lot larger viewing area compared to the cameras with a cropped sensor.

You do have to give up a few things, such as a super-fast frame rate for continuous shooting, but the 5D has the resolution you need for top-quality images, and the ability to get true wide angle perspectives from your EF lenses.

Slow frame rate

The 5D was revolutionary in that it was the first, affordable, "compact" 35mm full frame (FF

Still a great camera to enjoy full frame in 2018

Five years ago I bought a Canon S40 (after using my father's Canon Pro 70) and at the same time I saw the 1DS and fell in love with the viewfinder and just knew full frame would be my next camera if my EYE improved.

This is a great full frame backup and I use it for that when my 5DII is busy onanother tripod

My wife gets some great shots and it is a fabulous camera, but having full frame really is that important to me

If you are trying to figure out if full frame is right for you then stop thinking about it and just do it, especially if you specialize in portraits or weddings.

You can either shoot in raw and adjust for fall off in Photoshop, or you can learn not to push your lenses as hard as you could with a crop factor camera

The 100-400 and the TS-E fall a bit behind on sharpness, but the others are just
