Image quality

 

Canon EOS-1D Mark II N

Combination of fast drive mode and high resolution; large buffer; highly customizable; saves custom camera setups to media, supports cards greater than 2GB.

Noise in underexposed image areas; imperfections appear when paired with lower-quality lenses.

In a league by itself, the Mark II offers professional photographers extensive customization, excellent photo quality, and market-leading speed.

Canon EOS 1D Mark II N

 

After great debate, I have decided to not write a hands-on Canon EOS 1D Mark II N review. It is just me here and I have to prioritize what I am working on. Apparently some of the other camera review sites have come to the same decision

There is probably no better camera available for this purpose. With an excellent 45-point, high sensitivity autofocus system paired to a rugged, weather-sealed body capable of firing 8.5 very high quality frames per second into a deep buffer, the Canon...

The Canon EOS-1D Mark II N shares an almost-identical body with its predecessor, the EOS-1D Mark II , along with the same 8.2 effective megapixel CMOS image sensor and EF lens mount. The only outwardly obvious change is an increase in the LCD display...

All of the picture styles can be tweaked to the user's preference, and serve as a starting point for customisation. There are also three user-defined settings, allowing photographers to separately store their own preferred setups

Combination of fast drive mode and high resolution ; Large buffer ; Highly customisable ; Saves custom camera setups to media ; Supports cards greater than 2GB

Noise in underexposed image areas ; Imperfections appear when paired with lower-quality lenses

Because of its high resolution and superb image quality, the Mark II N will demand a lot from your lenses. For example, our 1.4x teleconverter, which worked perfectly on the EOS-1D, doesn't give us sharp results on the Mark II. The camera's high...

EOS-1D Mark II N

 

The EOS-1D Mark II N is the second upgrade to Canon's action-orientated EOS-1D professional digital SLR. The first update saw Canon introduce an 8.2-megapixel CMOS sensor in a pro camera for the first time, replacing the 4.1-megapixel CCD of the...

Rugged build, great handling, and high-speed continuous capture at 8.5fps. New larger screen and simplified image parameter control.

Pricey, and too few improvements put it head on with the higher-resolution Nikon D2X.

However, while the marginal updates are welcome, the 12.4-megapixel Nikon D2X offers a fantastic alternative for around the same price. If you've already invested in a Canon system, the Mark II N is a great choice, if not, the D2X is arguably the...
