The EOS 1D Mark II is a professional 8.2 megapixel digital single lens reflex camera (DSLR) camera body produced by Canon. The EOS 1D Mark II is the successor of the EOS 1D.
The EOS 1D Mark II features:
- 28.7 × 19.1 mm CMOS sensor
- 8.2 megapixel effective (8.5 megapixel total)
- DIGIC II image processor
- Canon EF lens mount (excludes EF-S)
- 1.3x crop factor (focal length magnifier)
- 45-point TTL-AREA-SIR autofocus with a CMOS sensor
- TTL full aperture metering with 21 zone SPC
- 100–1600 ISO speed equivalent (ISO can be expanded to L: 50 or H: 3200 with custom function)
- 30–1/8000 sec. shutter speed and bulb
- Auto white balance
- Eye-level pentaprism viewfinder with approx. 100% coverage
- 230,000 pixel, 2.0" color TFT liquid-crystal monitor with approx. 100% coverage (for JPEG images)
- E-TTL II flash mode
- 8.5 frames per second continuous shooting (JPEG: max. 40 frames, RAW: max. 20 frames)
- Dimensions (WxHxD): 156 × 158 × 80 mm (6.1 × 6.2 × 3.1 in)
- Weight (body only): Approx. 1220 g
- Battery: Canon NP-E3 NiMH: 12v 1650mAh 300 g
The camera's image sensor is a single-plate complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor-based integrated circuit. It has approximately 8.5 million total pixels. It has an RGB primary Bayer filter. A non-removable anti-aliasing filter] (optical low-pass filter) is located in front of the image sensor.
The shutter is an electronically-controlled focal-plane shutter. Its maximum speed is 1/8,000 of one second. Soft-touch shutter release occurs via an electromagnetic signal.
The camera was used by Tim Burton to shoot much of the stop-motion animation film Corpse Bride (2005).
On August 22, 2005, Canon announced the successor to the EOS 1D Mark II. The new Canon EOS 1D Mark II N will feature the same 8.2 megapixel CMOS sensor, DIGIC II image processor and 8.5 frame/s continuous shooting speed of its predecessor. The primary changes are a new 2.5 in wide viewing angle LCD monitor, improved buffering characteristics, new 'Picture Style' image parameters and the ability to write different formats simultaneously to SD and CF cards.
