- The Canon EOS-1 D Mark II was a successful follow-on to Canon's first professional EOS-1 digital SLR. The Mark II improved on the original in a number of ways including more megapixels, more buffer, and other key specification improvements. The EOS-1 series cameras are all built exceedingly solidly with good reliability, good build quality, and good components. This camera feels very well made and, in 2020, as of this video's release, it's build and image quality still hold up.
One challenge with old DSLRs, however, is finding batteries. Old DSLR batteries are often not made. This is true of very many vintage DSLRs. The best buying tip I have for you is, if you're looking to buy one of these, find a few good batteries first and then find the camera. It will be easier to use the camera if you already have a few batteries.

Interesting video, good to see you do these for classic digital cameras, too! I like how this camera looks like an absolute tank.
Thank you! It is. This is one of the most solid cameras I've held. I am actively expanding manuals to include classic (and some newer) DSLRs as well as film cameras.
Just bought one of these, I'm used to a Canon Rebel t3 so thanks for going over the basics! Lots of extra buttons and levers to learn
Nice! These are great cameras.
Good video. I'm getting back into photography with this camera and I needed a refresher.
Thank you!
Another great video!
Thank you!
I got the camera today thank you so much ♥️
Fantastic!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Excellent video, I’ve just bought a 1D Mark ii n with a 37,000 shutter count for £149! Now I need a week to learn how to use it!
Very nice!
Hi David, the unknown connector is firewire. The later N allowed different formats to be recorded to different cards, so one could be raw and the other jpg. The original mkII, which you have, would only do back up, same format to both cards. The video output is for displaying still images on a TV.
Thank you, Andrew!
Hey you're reviewing my camera. I have a collection of all the old 1D's up to 1DX mk.2. Has'nt missed a beat in the years I've owned it😊👍👍
Nice! This is an awesome camera.
1dx mk 2 isn’t even remotely old.
Just picked up one of these (mkiin) from the original owner with 43k shutter actuations. It was used for portrait photography and its like new. Had 2 new batteriew with it! Awesome camera!
Fantastic! These are still amazing portrait cameras.
How do you find out the shutter activations?, thanks
@@DavidHancock and for journalism and landscape and bird and everything really,
@@Gordonpont For this camera, I don't know that you can. Shutter count.com might be able to read the files but I'm not sure.
@@DavidHancock yes thanks, delighted to find only 9481 shots 5% of expected life of shutter used, keep up the great work, thanks again
Good as a main camera too. Don’t even need to be beginning or studenting :3
Good point. It really is. I am consistently impressed by it's photos.
Bought one because of you! :) And I love it! One question, can I use any vintage lenses on it with some proper adapter? I use them a lot on my 5D mk2, but not sure whether I can do it on this one. Can anyone help me? Thanks!
Thank you!
For vintage lenses it depends on the lens. Look for EOS EF adapters for lenses. I know that most M42 lenses will work. Some of them have glass elements the protrude from the back of the lens and if the mirror hits that it can damage the camera. So for M42 lenses, I'd suggest sticking with normal (50mm) and longer lenses as I think most of the problem lenses are wide-angle. There may be some in the 50-58mm range that are problems, too.
Thanks for making these videos. I’ve already learned a few things about my camera from watching 🙂. I do have one question though. Do you know if this camera has AF assist beam when using a flash? I have gone through the menus and I can’t really find anything. Thanks again!
IIRC yes, and that would be covered in, I think, video 3. I'd be surprised if it doesn't have that capacity since I think the D60, 10D, and 20D did (I wrote scripts for those cameras last night, but I've written about camera manual 65 scripts in the last two weeks so I may be mixing up some of the features.)
@@DavidHancock thanks again 🙏
Good to pop video does this have a diaptic adjustment? I thought I saw it. But overall, good job.
I sold this camera about a year ago, so I can't check, but IIRC yes.
Can you tell me the best external monitors to use with the 1DXII? On the high price and low price sides?
Nope. I don't use external monitors with cameras and it's not an area of photography I have any knowledge of.
Thank you for this great video. I have been a Cannon film camera addict since the early 1980s. I own a EOS 1 film and a nice digital Cannon point and shoot camera.
I just inherited a EOS 1 Mark II N. I haven't used it yet. In this video you skipped over the right side of the camera where the memory cards are located.
Question is can I use any size card? I was given a 128 card. Will it work? Also, how do you set up the two cards. I watched all three videos and couldn't find the answer. Thanks.
Thank you!
Oh, regarding the card, if it's a 128GB, I doubt that it will work (but I might be wrong.) If it's 128MB, it will but will only hold a handful of images. I think I was using a 16GB in this and it worked well and held a lot of photos.
@@DavidHancock I did mean mg byte. I bet you are right. The camera is setup with 16 mg byte. That was a lot 15 years ago.
Very informative video. Since Canon no longer makes batteries for this camera, can you recommend a quality aftermarket manufacturer for the battery?
Thank you! For third-party, TTBOMK, they all come from the same factory, so it really doesn't matter which one. I just buy whichever is cheaper and ships within the U.S. as that cuts down on wait time.
@@DavidHancock Thank you for your quick response! A couple of years ago a senior pro in my area was liquidating his Canon stuff and had a 1D Mk2 N as a backup, we bought his 600mm F4 L lens and some other stuff and he threw in his backup 1D Mk2 N as part of the deal, practically unused. Can’t complain about that!
@@hendriphile definitely not. That's fantastic.
Hi David, I do not see the information in the viewfinder displayed on the bottom of the viewfinder. What do I have to do to see it displayed?
It's been a few years since I sold this, so I can't recall for sure but two ideas pop to mind. One is to check video 3 in this series and see if there's an LCD on-off option. I forget if there is or not. If not, the LCD may have failed. That's no entirely unheard of.
I did not realise how much like the 1v this camera is its virtually identical in interface. I want a mk 4 but I am worried if I get one I will ever use my 1v again.
There was not a whole lot of change from the 1V at all. The Mk4 is a really incredible camera. I'd love to make a video series about it at some point. I agree. i think that the amount of film I shoot would decline a lot if I had more professional DSLRs.
Good day, can this be charged in any other way if you do not have the charger?
There is an external cord, yes. I was able to get one but I think it was more than the camera.
I have a Canon 90D and I just bought, I just bought 1DS mark 2 What are some good settings for this camera to start off with,
That depends on how familiar you are with photography. If you're just starting with DSLRs, just try program mode for few days to get used to the handling. If you've shot cameras for a while, whatever settings you've used in the past will work in basically the same way with those cameras.
@@DavidHancock Dave I had to count on AD about a year and I've done very well with it I was just wondering if there was any difference in the settings if it had not I should be OK but I appreciate your response back and let me know what type of man you are thank you sir.
If my 1dmk2 needed a screen change, do you know where I could get one please? Thank you
I send my digital cameras in need of repair to the Camera and Camcorder Repair Center in California. They always do a good job for me.
@@DavidHancock great thanks for the reply, I'll check them out. Even these older models?
@@DavidHancock nice good to know.
You can't output video from that jack or use it as a web cam at all. It is only for viewing the photos from the card on an external tv. And even so, the output resolution isn't any better than the rear LCD display on the back.
Thank you!
i own a 1D mark II N. Are they very similar?
Yup. Minor changes between the two.
I HAVE A 1DS MK2 WHEN I PUT MY FD EOS ADAPTER ON THE CAMERA AND TAKE A PIC THE MIRROR JUST GOES UP AND STAYS THERE, BUT DOES NOT TAKE A PICTURE AND SEEMS TO SHUT IT SELF DOWN. THE ADAPTER WORKS FINE ON MY 350D, WHAT IS WRONG ANYONE KNOW?
Does your camera do that without the adapter or with native EF mount lenses?
@@DavidHancock No, I can put the eod fd adapter on my 350d or 50d and it works fine. When I put it on the 1ds mk 2 the mirror just parks itself in the up position and the camera switches off.
I currently have a sigma af teleconverter 1.4 on the 1ds, so I put the eos fd converter onto the front of that on the 1ds, same thing happened again, mirror parked itself and camera switched off.
Although when I have my sigma zoom lens attached to the sigma teleconverter the 1ds works fine. I can only assume the 1ds is looking for a signal from the lens and the fact the eos fd has no connections nor the fd lense I assume this result happens. Although I really would like a definitive answer as it is giving me a head ache.
@@billienomates1606 Huh. That's a new one on me. So I have two guesses. Most likely, there's a short in the camera. Something that causes it to lock up with the adapter. That short would be in the mount contacts. Alternately, something in the adapter could be physically catching the mirror. I've heard of that work EOS camera but not personally experienced.
Hey! That’s actually a 1D MARK II and not a N one.
Cool video still! Very informative
Thank you!
It is not a 1D mk.2n because it doesn't have a small n on the front next to mark2 also the mk.2n has a larger rear lcd screen
Oh interesting. It has the menu layout of the N. I wonder if that was to do with firmware.
@@DavidHancock it seems that the N version has a different firmware. It’s interesting
What does it mean " xx pictures in the buffer" ?!...
That's the camera telling you how many photos are in the process of being written to the CD card. The buffer is the camera's internal memory and the space where photos are held until they're written to the card. The camera writes them in the order they were taken. The data is important if you need to use burst shooting before the buffer is empty and need to know how many photos you can take in your burst.
@@DavidHancock Ahaa,..ok Thank you! ...
بكام دى
Thank you, if I understand correctly?
@@DavidHancock he’s asking how much is it
Can this camera do videos?
Nope
this camera is not a N if it was it would have a N next to Mark II
Thank you
