Standout Spec: Excellent image quality to ISO 3200-’nuff said. TODAY's Jefferson Graham goes to the Santa Monica Pier with Redrock Micro's Brian Valente to shoot video on the Canon 5D Mark II and 7D with Redrock video rigs. Film students-and cine pros-have taken to its video big time. Yes, these accessories are overpriced, but please don’t call it “price gouging”.Long-awaited update of the original full-frame workhorse, the Mark II impressed us with stellar image quality, HD video, rugged construction-but not the older autofocus system recycled from the Mark I. The government should not be in the business of telling people for what price they can sell merchandise. If prices aren’t raised in the face of disaster, then the first people to the store with money will buy more than they need and not leave enough for others. If the price were higher, they might make do with one room. Otherwise, the family of four with the grandparents tagging along will get two or three rooms, thus depriving someone else of a room.

If I have a hotel and people fleeing a disaster want rooms, then I SHOULD raise my prices. I know some will say there is “price gouging” during disasters and it should be illegal, but I don’t think that’s the case either. In other words, a camera that aims to leapfrog both its direct rivals, either in terms of resolution (in the case of the D700) or features (in the case of the DSLR-A900). If people pay for it, then so be it – if they don’t, then so be it. So here is the 5D Mark II, which punches high in terms of both resolution and features, headlining: 21 megapixels, 1080p video, 3.0' VGA LCD, Live view, higher capacity battery. You have a product for sale and you price it how you like. The lens was recommended by someone as a very sharp lens for copy work. It was a cheap type of adapter with focus confirmation chip. As a matter of fact, I don’t believe that there is such a thing as “price gouging” (hence the quotation marks). Sometime ago I bought a used Nikon 55mm micro-Nikkor manual focus lens and used it on my Canon 5D Mark-II with a lens adapter. Its successor the 5D Mark II boasts 21 megapixels, 1080p video, 3.0' VGA LCD, Live view, and higher capacity battery. The original 5D was the first affordable and lightweight (in relative terms) full frame camera. I think the listed accessories may be overpriced, but I wouldn’t say it’s “price gouging”. Thats the question Canon faced when it got to work producing a successor to the EOS 5D.
