5D2 First Outing - Cuyahoga Falls, OH River Square Area

Recent 'low mileage' 5D2 pickup from a member here. All shots taken with 5D2 and either the Sigma 85 f/1.4 or the 135mm f/2 L. One was taken with the Sigma 50mm f/1.4. #3, I think. Nothing of much importance, but enjoyed getting out to shoot with it for the first time.

1. Signage from Riverfront Center area of shoot. This was the Sigma 85mm

Upgraded from a 5D to the 5D2 so I'm not completely 'blown away' with the image quality. It's better than the 5Dc, but not by leaps and bounds. The light was really nice this morning from 10-11am. That seems to help more than anything! Guess more MP does mean better resolution. The shots above aren't cropped very much at all.

Last two since I uploaded extras:

9. Another with the 135L near full-frame shot against a brilliant morning blue sky
