Professional Images At Your Command

When you want unmatched clarity and
precision shooting from a digital SLR,
Canons EOS 5D gives you just what youre
aiming for " and more. This latest addition
to the EOS lineup has the superior imaging,
fast response, and elegant design to serve
the needs and interests of serious
enthusiasts as well as professionals.


Premier performance and convenient features
start with a remarkable 12.8-megapixel
full-frame CMOS sensor, refined DIGIC II
imaging engine, and responsive 3fps
continuous shooting. Distinct advantages
like highly customizable settings, direct
printing, and wireless/wired LAN
compatibility prove that Canon continues to
earn its reputation for reliability and
comfort.

High Quality Images
The new EOS 5D is the model to choose
for simple, sophisticated performance and
accessible image processing of remarkably
high quality. Enhancing all aspects of image
capture by the full-frame CMOS sensor, the
exclusive DIGIC II imaging engine delivers a
superior tonal range for precise and
faithful photos. Satisfying results also
come from the all-new Picture Style
function. With a choice of six Picture
Styles, you can easily control sharpness,
contrast, color saturation, color tone and
more for greater image variety. The EOS 5D
is especially configured for truly creative
photographers who naturally demand practical
ease with uncompromising performance.

12.8 Megapixel Full Frame CMOS Sensor

Originally developed by Canon, this
high-resolution, 35mm full-frame CMOS sensor
sets the standard for its class, featuring a
remarkable 12.8 million effective pixels for
a maximum recorded resolution of 4,368 x
2,912 pixels. Second-generation on-chip
noise reduction is enhanced for easier use
with a choice of two modes: Auto, to engage
auto noise reduction when noise is detected;
ON, to engage noise reduction for all
exposures of 1 sec. or longer. From smooth
gradations and wide ISO speed range to
effective suppression of false colors and
ultra-precise white balance, this sensor
matches the image quality found in the
flagship model of Canons EOS digital SLR
lineup, EOS-1Ds Mark II. These refinements
are the result of sophisticated DIGIC II
imaging engine technology.

High Speed, High Quality DIGIC II
Imaging Engine
DIGIC II is Canons advanced imaging
technology that processes massive data from
the large CMOS sensor at extremely high
speed for photos of exceptional quality and
definition. This accelerated performance
contributes to highly responsive,
user-friendly operation, including a fast
continuous shooting speed. Color
reproduction is extremely natural and
details are incredibly precise, especially
with gradations in the highlight areas. Such
processing efficiency also keeps power
consumption minimal.

Picture Style: New Universal Image
Style Settings
Like choosing film for a film camera,
users can choose the setting from Picture
Styles that is ideally suited to the subject
or shooting objective. Picture Style
replaces the Processing Parameters and Color
Matrix features of previous EOS DIGITAL
cameras, bringing a uniform standard to EOS
DIGITAL cameras that incorporate Picture
Style. Users can select from 6 preset image
style settings (Standard, Portrait,
Landscape, Neutral, Faithful and Monochrome)
and 3 user-defined styles, depending on
their particular subject, shooting
conditions and photographic intentions. The
Standard setting, for example, replaces the
current "Processing Parameter 1" on the EOS
20D.

Prominent High Performance
Functionality
The new EOS 5D has an array of premier
functions often demanded by photographers
who want hands-on creative control and
comfort in a camera. Accurate focusing,
enhanced durability, and quick, reliable
response will make inspired ideas come true.
Look through the viewfinder or 2.5-inch LCD
to see how bright and wide your vision can
be. With the EOS 5D, Canon frees your hands
as well as your imagination by simplifying
shooting operations. As for post-processing,
expanded PictBridge functionality not only
saves printing time but offers new ways to
shape the world you see.

Expanded Sensor Array For More Precise
Composition
The newly developed 9-point AF sensor
with 6 Assist AF points provides speedy and
precise focus detection plus enlarged
subject coverage. With an extra 6 AF assist
points added to the spot metering circle,
the EOS 5D enables highly detailed focusing
around the center of an image in AI Servo AF
mode. Of the 9 primary AF points, the
high-precision cross-type center AF point is
compatible with f/2.8 and f/5.6 lenses,
while 8 sensors are sensitive to f/5.6.
Upper and lower central points, 2 of the 6
Assist AF points, are also f/2.8 and f/5.6
compatible. All focusing points are
configured for quick focus in any shooting
situation.

Improved Shutter Reliability

An extremely fast, highly durable
shutter unit has been especially developed
to match the EOS 5Ds full-frame 35mm CMOS
sensor. The high-torque shutter-cocking
mechanism is rated to 100,000 shots,
attaining speeds from 1/8000 sec. to 30 sec.
and bulb. The units flash synchronization
(X-sync) function uses an optically
detected, contactless switch instead of a
mechanical one, which contributes to high
durability and reliability when a Speedlite
is used and yields an X-sync shutter speed
of 1/200 sec.

Quality Viewing From Any Angle
This 2.5-inch, polysilicon TFT LCD color
monitor with 230,000 pixels maintains the
same picture quality and brightness (5
levels) from almost any viewing angle
(170-degree), whether front and center or
upward angle. With the EOS 5D as your eyes
on the world, you get an unimpeded view with
a display area nearly double that of the EOS
20D. Other features to inform your
perspective include easy-to-read menus, a
full-featured info screen complete with RGB
histogram and AF frame displays, and
enlargeable reviewing images right after
shooting.

3 Frames Per Second (fps) Shooting Of Up
To 60 Shots Per Burst
Driven by the advanced DIGIC II imaging
engine, the EOS 5D achieves a remarkable
3fps consecutive shooting speed during
maximum bursts of 60 shots (17 in RAW) even
for Large/Fine JPEG shots (with a Canon
512MB CF card). For rare shutter
opportunities, the amazingly quick startup
(approx. 0.2 sec.) and short shutter release
time lag (75 milliseconds) will also help
you capture the moment without delay.
Another efficient use of your time is the
fast transfer of data enabled by EOS 5Ds
compatibility with USB 2.0 High-Speed.


Interchangeable Focusing Screens For
Customized Viewing
New enhancements of the viewfinder include
an improved standard focusing screen
interchangeable with two others (sold
separately) for highly customized viewing.
The Ee-S Super Precision Matte* for easier
manual focus and the Ee-D Precision Matte
with grid have different metering
characteristics for variable shooting
conditions. The choice of three Precision
Matte screens is a feature valued by
professionals for added flexibility and
greater precision.

Better Collaboration With Canon
PictBridge-Compatible Printers
The EOS 5D helps optimize every shot
with expanded PictBridge functionality.
Printing beautiful photos is still done with
minimum time and effort: connect to a
PictBridge-compatible printer via USB port,
select your image and print settings, and
press the Direct Print button. But now you
can choose Bordered prints with Exif
shooting information, 35-up contact prints
with photo number or date, 20-up prints with
shooting information, or Prints with
shooting information. These new functions
can be enjoyed with the latest Canon
PictBridge-compatible printers (released
from second half of 2005). With extras like
new paper sizes and the PC-less printing
effect of Face Brightener, getting tangible
results from your camera has never been
faster or easier.

Solid Construction Meets
Sophisticated Design
Highly durable yet elegantly refined, the
body of the EOS 5D can be handled with
remarkable ease. It features a highly rigid
magnesium alloy exterior (including the
Battery Grip BG-E4), a solid stainless steel
internal chassis, and a mirror box of
high-strength engineering plastic. Balance
is effortlessly maintained from the
redesigned grip to the top of a Speedlite
flash unit. With a front groove on the grip
for the middle finger to the enhanced
metallic feel of the Mode Dial, this camera
assures greater stability at every point.


* Ideally supported with f/2.8 or larger
lenses. When using this screen with lenses
below f/2.8, the viewfinder is darkened,
which is not the result with the standard
focusing screen (Ee-A).
