Flawless images yours to create.

A trio of inventive functions found in the EOS 5D Mark II ensure your images are

as close to what you see with your own eyes. First up is Highlight Tone Priority.

By expanding the dynamic range within highlighted areas, this function prevents

images shot in very bright light from appearing washed out. As a result, colour

rendition is more lifelike and the overall image looks more pleasing to the eye.

When shooting in less than ideal lighting conditions, the Auto Lighting Optimizer

can automatically adjust the brightness and contrast levels of your images to give

you better results. It can also be used to brighten up the faces of subjects thanks

to face detection technology. Choose from a Standard, Low or Strong setting for

greater control.

Finally, there's the new Lens Peripheral Illumination Correction function that

ensures uniform exposure across the entire image  a feature extremely useful

when shooting with wide angle or high-zoom lenses. Because each lens has different

correction requirements, this data must be registered into the camera before it can

be automatically carried out. The EOS 5D Mark II comes registered with correction

data for 26 lenses and can store a total of 40 different lens correction data.

Apart from the six different JPEG types, the EOS 5D Mark II provides three RAW

types for you to choose from  RAW, sRAW1, and sRAW2. The sRAW1 and sRAW2

types are useful for photographers who want the versatility of RAW but do not

need their images to be at the highest resolution. Any combination of RAW and

JPEG types can be selected for simultaneous RAW+JPEG recording. The EOS 5D

Mark II is also fully compatible with new high-speed UDMA (Ultra Direct Memory

Access) CompactFlash cards, which allow for faster read/write performance.
