The Canon 5D Mark II, also simply called the 5D2, is an absolute legend.
But, you know that already...
The question is;
What is the real world experience of owning this camera 15 years after it first launched?
In this (typical for me) extended review, I talk about a the original history of the "Canon vs Nikon" competition in the film era, the transition to autofocus lenses, the transition to digital cameras, the birth of the 5D2 and just how special it really was, as well as how the 5D2 compares to more modern cameras in the real world, in 2023, for people like you and me.
