Nothing too exciting yet but wanted to share a couple of my first shots with the 5d Mark II. The one of Wrigley (white dog) is shot at ISO 3200 and I must say....I am totally impressed. I need to get my Mark III out and do some comparison shots but man, for a ISO 3200 image it is smooth. Both Images were shot in RAW and SOOTC besides web sharpening. I was using my 85 1.2L at f/1.8 on both shots.

Right off the bat the LCD on the 5d II blew me away. It is amazing, and color is dead-on.


I can't wait till tomorrow when I have the kids home to really play with this bad boy!

Lovely! Not quite ducks, but they're so cute that I think you can get away with these.

It's funny most people on here were saying how having a great LCD wasn't that important, but once you view images on there you really appreciate how damn good they look and help you with exposure focus even more.

Nikon got it right very early on with that aspect. I wonder what's next concering that, can we get even more HD like on those little displays?

Great images by the way, love the bokeh
