Sure, the text is in Japaneese. And yes, it takes a long time to download. And yes, again, it’s in flash so I can’t just pull the samples or direct link to them, but here’s a link to the JP Canon page that has several videos and images shot with the new 5d MarkII.

Now, the new 5D mark II doesn’t have all the new things I was hoping it would, no AF assist light built in, no bubble level in the view finder, etc. (and there are several etc.s). However, I’ll likely be buying one the within a few days after it comes out.

Pardon the geek out. This blog is supposed to be about the art, not the gear, but just in case you haven’t read it else ware, the new 5D It has weather seals, live view, sensor cleaner, full 1080 HD video, UDMA support, and ISO up to 25,600. Fun stuff. Oh, did I mention it has a mic imput so it would seem you could hook up an external lav mic or some such. Handy.

Okay, I’ll buy it.

Thanks to Don for the tip on the Japanese link!

Nice!
