Canon Unveils Anxiously-Awaited 21.1-megapixel EOS 5D Mark II

“What we’re saying is that because of the improvements to the sensor and the Digic 4 image processor this is going to be the highest image quality of any EOS digital SLR ever released,” Canon’s Chuck Westfall said. “We’re raising the bar for EOS.”

He added that image quality from the 5D Mark II should even surpass what is offered from Canon’s flagship 1Ds Mark III, a camera which costs approximately $5,000 more.

“Image quality is going to be a generation ahead of whatever else is out there right now,” Westfall said.
