Please treat me well.

Canon EOS 5D Mark II
Kuro Toro a.k.a Black Totoro.

What Can I say about 5D Mark 2. I can say this camera is one of those camera will change the world of Digital Photography and also maybe world of DSLR. I call it the Ultimate Dynamite Camera (random one). I can’t compare my 350D with 5D Mark2 because 350D will still be my baby. All my requirement goes to 5DMII.

Although is not a complete set for me cos i need to get myself an extra battery, a battery grip and also cable release for KuroToro.

21megapixels DSLR equivalent to :
- 5616 x 3744 resolution
- 18.72 x 12.48inch
- 47.55 x 31.70cm

Size of A2 paper, If you know how to upscale smoothly to A1 pun boleh with borders.

ISO wise. 100 times better than my 350D, I don’t need to think about noise anymore cos i can pump up the iso too 3200. ISO6400 is still acceptable equivalent to 350D’s ISO800.
The Highest ISO for 5DMII is ISO25600 or known as H2 in the camera. Itu memang rusak lar, the noise almost looks like 350D’s ISO1600.

About the sensor….. 5DMII is full frame. The 350D pula Frame Separuh only.

You can see the differents here. (kamu tau suda bah kan but still i want to show.

This is Canon EOS 5D Mark II Full Frame Sensor on 17-40mm F4 Lens.

What a Huge Different.

Dial Function have 5 extra dial beside the M, Av, Tv, Auto & P.
3 Customize Function (C1, C2 and C3), 1 Creative Auto (or known as CA) and Bulb Function.

The Customize Function really makes my finger easier because you can save the setting for future use, for example :
C1 : I want ISO800 for shooting indoor with less light, Activate Lighting Optimizer.
C2 : ISO100 and Bracketing for shooting HDR.
C3 : ISO200, set the Shutter speed and aperture to 1/60 at F5.6 and also set my flash guns to ETTL +1 brightness.

You get what i mean? So when i want to shoot HDR scene i just dial it to C2. Everything kao-tim in less than 1 secs.

Awesome thing about this DSLR is you can record a HD Video or just a normal video size with all kind of EF lenses.


10secs Test video on HD Mode.

The size of 10 secs HD is around 45mb. So if you have 1gb, 2gb and 4gb CF card. It will only last like 6mins in 2gb CF card.
That’s mean i have to get bigger than that lar. Ngai tiao betul.

The Dynamic Range in 5DMII is quite wide than my 350D, that’s mean i have to change my editting habit a lil bit because of the Dynamic Range. But no worries, everything is gonna be alrite.

And last one, before i stop talking crap again.

5DMII will help you to reduce the vignette of your image in the camera because they have the function called ‘Peripheral Illumination Correction’.
Just switch it on, you’ll see less vignette on the edge of your camera.
Well for me, I’ll switch it off because i love baby vignette.

Alrighty, that’s all about my crappy review for the first time.

Before i want to press the Publish button.
Let me upload a few pics i’ve taken with my 5DMII.

I never set my own resolution every end of the year because… to be honest, I never plan everything lar.
But for 2009, I try to set my own resolution just for fun. :)
Since I ain’t got nothing to do since my CPU’s MSN Messenger Screwed me up.

This is my New Year’s Resolution for 2009 :

1. Graduate smoothly and attend my graduation with happy smile.
2. Complete my Anima Portraiture Series… I’m aiming for like 20-30images but I try to extend till 200 images, hope to complete in 2011.
3. Before Graduate, I must find a Job with any press agency no matter where are they gonna send me. I’m ready for an adventure work!
4. Own an awesome Camera Backpack.. Big one like my size. maybe bag from Think Tank Photo.
5. Get myself a Nintendo DSi International Version.
6. Extra Flash Gun & 4 Channel Transmitter and Receiver.
7. New Pair of Jeans, My current Jeans (the only jeans) one of the pocket koyak suda. :(
8. New Tech stuff.. Maybe New Laptop that have a Video Card GPU can support Photoshop CS4 new function & support HD resolution.
9. Stay Healthy and explore the world (not travelling) by understanding all kind of Human Being to be a better man.

Yup.. That’s my 2009 resolution.

Yes, upgraded to this Camera. ^_^ shiwase beam~~~

It’s time, after shooting film like 4 and half years ago (still shooting bah) then got 350D 3 years ago and now.. After 3 years of misuse and then fully utilize the 350D and also i call it my saviour for my study.

Please say Hi to my new cammy companion.
I name it Kurotoro. (Black Totoro)

My first child (350D) will still be mine but i wont bring it back to Australia, cos i know i won’t use it and I KNOW someone will borrow which i don’t like because after borrow my camera always melekat or got the smell.

I’ll hand-on the 350D to my dad. hehe
For sure my sister gonna misuse it for camwhore.

Maybe she’ll be the 2nd photographer got produced in the family.
Manalar tau, since she love to see those Japanese Girlish photographer punya gambar like Nanako Koyama & Rinko Kawauchi.
