This is the first video of I’ve seen of yours but I’d love for you to make a “how I use my canon 5DC (for photog rookies” kind of video. There’s already one out that I’ve seen but I’d like more perspective on it. Compare it to how other cameras out today contrast. Show more photos. Show us the process of how you set it up and more of what gear you use and what gear is best/not good to use with this. Like “these tripods won’t fit this camera.” Little things like that. I just bought a 5DC and have no photog experience. Would love to get your perspective in a video.
@Gerety, I've had a 5D, 5D II, 5D III and now a 5D IV. Looking at my Lightroom catalog, the body that has the most dramatic, emotional images are from my 5D classic.
Everyone recommends using 5d's with cheap lenses and it makes sense since it is so cheap but man, pear it down with some L glass and you will see magic unfold under your eyes. Great video, maybe show edited vs raw photos so ppl can see what they are getting. Keep shooting and best of luck!
Couldn't agree more! I find that the biggest selling point of these cameras is the price for what you get.. which is exactly how I feel about the nifty fifty being so cheap yet a great little lens. So pairing them together for
So glad people are discovering the beauty that the 5d produces. I got mine from an old friend a few years back and love it. I think you get even better film quality images when you pair the camera with old glass. I'm using Olympus OM lenses on the camera and the images are gorgeous.
I bought the 5D shortly after it first came out, so I didn't get the good price deal. But in those years since I've assembled a lot of great Canon glass to go with it. When my professional photographer friend (a Nikon-type) visits, he pixel peeps a couple of brooding Scottish landscapes I have on my wall and always remarks that there is a look the 5D has that he cannot replicate, especially in the detail of the shadows. I've never regretted the 5D classic.
I bought a 5D Mark II back in March but I really wish I had bought the 5D Classic. I'm not giving up any of my camera bodies (I"ve also got a Rebel Xs and a 7D.), but as soon as I've got room in my budget I'm getting a 5D Classic. The only other camera I'm interested in beyond those is the 6D and I doubt if I'll ever buy another one.
I've been using my 5D classic for a long while now. I picked it up really cheap about 10 years ago. It definitely is fun to use and I'm really surprised about some of the shots I'm able to get. My biggest issue was the CF card but now that I know about the converter I'm going to be having so much more fun. Thanks for convincing me not to sell my camera!
Nice to meet more and more people in the club =) Check out what you can do with the cheapest full frame kit ever: th-cam.com/video/iFD8Uh_CsqE/w-d-xo.html P.S. I use *Toshiba Flash Air SD + simple CF-SD adapter* , so I have wi-fi to download files (including RAWs, unlike original Canon app!) straight from camera to smartphone.
I don't think Canon 5D Classic is a camera for beginners or low-budget photographers! Rather, it's a camera for those who have extensively used 5DII, 5DIII and 5DIV. Then they discovered this diamond "Digital Film camera" and was stunned by the subtle film-look images.
If it's an important event or the camera you're using is your main body - then 100% get an actual CF card. I've been using my Cf-sd card reader for a couple years now with no problems but only shoot personal things with it so if it was to fail, it wouldn't be that big of a deal.
Yes. It works as good as it ever has. I take care of my equipment and most people have no real need of the features that come with newer models because they lack basic photography skills to understand the use and how to apply them.
The Canon 5D was my first digital camera when I went cross country in 2007. I take it everywhere I go, along with my 7DMkII. I will never give up my 5D
its now 2022, I've been shooting with a Canon 6D MK2 for a few years and fancied something else as a spare.....up popped the 5D Classic on MPB (UK), I've had a little play with it today and love the feel of it. at first it felt quite antiquated because its clearly not as advanced as the 6d mk2 but for the price if it and what its capable of its a no brainer!
Please I need a help, I just started my photography school and I’m very confused about what Camera I have to buy , I found 5d Canon used but in very good condition with only 300$ , I don’t have much money to buy a new camera. Can I use 5d for a landscape photography and portrait photography?
Its nice to see people getting interested in the 5D classic. A great review I can tell you like the camera a lot. I have used the eye fi sd card in the sd to compact flash adapter at weddings for the past ten years backing up my images. Eye fi is no longer supported but Toshiba have got some on Amazon. Great video thanks for making it
Hey, Rich! Glad to see you here! Toshiba have Wi-Fi SDs now. I use'em with 5D over a simple SD-CF adapter and can easily download both JPEGs and RAWs to smartphone straight from camera.
As of Oct 5, 2033 it will be 18 years old. Still a great pick up on Ebay. However, the price is a bit higher since videos like yourself have done a good job of getting the word out.
DUDE! Talk to us about the CCD sensor. CCDs are heads and shoulders above CMOS, but just too expensive to manufacture unfortunately. Can you use this as a webcam? Thanks man.
I love the review, and I loove the shot samples shared. I'm just learning photography and I got gifted this Beast with a Grip and a 24-105mm lens. What settings di you use for those shots? If you can share just one.
I got to shoot a baptism with the 5D and the greens popped from the Colorado River in 310 to Yuma i had a new camera I brought and was like when was this camera made gave that 70s vintage look i was like crazy.
I just bought one of these because I wanted a lower priced full frame camera so I could use my Lensbaby lenses collection more effectively. My other cameras are cropped sensor. The Lensbaby effects work better with full frame. Unfortunately the first day I took it out to shoot photos the mirror fell out of it's housing. Just be aware the earlier release of this camera has this issue. Canon offered to fix it for free back in the day, but apparently a lot of owners didn't send them in for the free fix. I read that Canon fixed the issue when they manufactured more. Unfortunately I had to return it to B&H for repair. They offer me a credit towards another toward the gear of my choice because that camera is no longer supported.
honestly, if people gripe and just want the camera to do most of the work for them, just don't get a camera and use your phone. If you want a real camera, learn the damn thing
Lighting must be number 1 priority, also well versed in the exposure triangle system. Good class. I use a Zeiss 50mm 1.4 with mines... 👍Get right in camera. No pixels to play with.
I have a couple 5Ds that I haven’t shot in a while. Dust on the sensor and spots on images are common. But I did like the look when I was shooting them.
I got one, still like somehow more then my 6d. In fact I gave it to my wife XD not the best shots but some in my flickr so you can see the quality in some situations flic.kr/s/aHsmMyJbav
Great cameras, I still use two of them. If you use Toshiba FlashAir Wireless LAN SD cards you get WiFi in a 15 year old camera too, now that’s cool. I shoot in RAW and jpeg med for the WiFi to my phone if I wanna upload a shot to social media quickly.
June 2022. My 5D Classic still produces some stunning results, mine is paired with the pancake 40mm 2.8 which makes an awesome combo, the files look more "beefier" than those from my Fuji XT3, and I would say pretty on par with the look of my Leica M8 and M9P images. I will never sell mine, still works and looks like new 👍🏼
1:54 I gotta push back a little bit here: you don't want to take your nice camera out because you're afraid of bumping it against something? My full frame camera gets way more use and abuse than any other camera I own, because it's built for it. I'll take it out in a snowstorm, shoot on a windy beach, or go exploring caves and escarpments. Take the proper precautions, of course, but don't leave your camera on a shelf just because it's nice :)! Enjoyed the video overall, though, I definitely find the 5D C weirdly alluring. I think it'll be a timeless classic for many years to come. Happy shooting!
Completely get it! I feel sometimes it gives me piece of mind walking around with a “cheaper” set up that still takes killer photos then walking around with my $5k+ gear which is not necessary in every situation to bring. I use my main cameras just as much but definitely prefer using my 5D setup when I’m out in a new place just casually exploring :) Thanks for the comment and happy shooting!
Yup. By far my most favorite images i have shot have come on this camera, mine ended up backfocusing way too gnarly but got another. Prefer it over any camera, not to mention sub par glass still looks amazing on it.
I have this camera. I love it. The old sensor Canon used is the closest thing to film, even over the new Fuji Cameras. Only bummer is how few autofocus points it has...although I’m alright with it usually since I’ve been shooting film Cameras that are only manual focus for the past few years. Great video dude!
hell yea i use it in 2020! i have sony a6000 had a7 have nex6 also a vg10 but this canon classic . i dont know like everyone says the pictures look diferent. i say timeless is a good word. its always fresh to look at.🤷🏻♂️
The 5D Classic was launched in 2005 and that was 15 years before 2020. Where you got 25 years from I don't think the Internet had fully taken off either in that time.
Why do I only now just found out about SD to CF converters.. After this video I just placed an order for one. I have tons of SD but only one 32GB CF card and that cost a lot.
Just purchased the Cannon 5D classic. Somewhat confused by the multitute of opinions regarding the lenses for this camera. I am not a professional photographer. I missed my Cannon AE 1 and did not want a film camera. I just want to purhase one lens that will stay on camera when I go on vacation and without spending a furtune. Please help. Thanks
Loved my MK1 5D. It was my first DSLR. I used it for years and even though it was very old I got great shots on it. Traveled the world with it and it's true, they're built like tanks. I'd still recommend it today for somebody looking to get a cheap full-frame camera. Sadly the sensor in mine got damaged and I had to retire it. I did briefly get a Mark II to use on a trip. It was quite a step up from the original and that's also a great choice as they're not very expensive these days. Wouldn't recommend it for video in 2022 though.
Two things I have to live with is few AF-points (at least 19 like in 70D would be fine) and most of all - the lack of Auto ISO. The latter really sucks. Everything else is good. Ergonomics is fantastic. And I sure don't have to speak of image quality. It's all about it. *P.S.* Be aware of mirrors falling off, though! Learn everything you need about it from *Richard Barley* channel, he's got tons of videos on 5D. I already had to get my mirror fixed. Hope it never falls off again. Cheers!
Great video. I just pick one of those up for $200. I'm old school so I would rather take pictures on this thing cuz all I do is work on Photoshop so it's perfect for me on top of that is absolutely beautiful camera the build quality is absolutely amazing.
The original 5D is a workhorse and still widely used today. It’s solid, built for professional use and delivers. Like any tool, know what it can and cannot do, and it’ll deliver every time. 👍
I agree. I am looking at 5d output online and they look like film. I don’t see that with the newer 5d models. I am seriously looking to buy a used 5d. With the money I save I can buy a few full frame lenses. I also compared the 5d output to the mirrorless r6 and r5 and I think the 5d output looks better. Sharper and more contrasty with a film like look.
Came onto photography with digital on a Canon rebel Xs. Then went to film because the pro grade cameras are more reasonably priced. Got into the nikon system, and started adapting my nikon glass onto my rebel. It only does photos, no video, and I'm used to film anyways. Looking at getting one of these just so I can have a full frame sensor, which I can get at a reasonable price.
Hello, I hope you are well. I have a Canon 5d mark 4 camera. When recording a movie, the camera shutter speed is not less than 500 and it has more. Is there a solution or not? What is the problem?
Nice video I bought canon t7 for my first good camera I like it and all then reading more on 5d I got one for $75 its been my work Horse on get down to the basics and getting grate pictures
Hey 👋 thank for this video Canon 5D classic it great Awesome I love this canon camera because I have it and I continous to use it for shooting picture outdoors.. ✅
Hey man, sick video! I just released my review of the Canon 5D a couple of days ago too! Also those little CF to SD adapters are so good, I was kinda annoyed I would have too use a whole different storage media but now I can just use my SD cards
After using several cameras and finally purchasing my Canon 5D I have not bought any more cameras. My only investment has been glasses. Its capacity and sharpness in photos and videos is incredible without counting the expansion that is achieved with the Magic Lantern application. Without a doubt, a super camera that can be obtained now in second hands at an affordable price.
Is this great for photography during travels? Will be used for very little portraiture, mainly landscape sceneries or street. It will be my second camera but not for the same purpose, my 60d for mild action, video and photos that need to be taken in weird positions(on the floor or smth) and 5d for everything else, at least thats what i plan to get the 5d for, will it be worth my price? The deal im getting is about 250 usd and he kindly included a 128gb cf card which is a steal!
I just got this camera from my brother, i am totally a beginner so I’m not well verse in photography. I am wondering if 5d classic is capable tethering with my windows 10 laptop.
Great vid! Do you mind going into the settings for the camera? I recently bought one off amazon for cheap. A video of you going around the city and talking about settings would be a huge help! Thanks!
"I'd be more worried about the table" lmao I agree, these DSLR's are made to work in damn near any condition and can take a beating. Thats the only thing that has stopped me from going mirrorless. Every time I've used it they just feel fragile. And that small layer of anxiety can break into getting my groove when I shoot.
I have it and love it! Been using it for years and use it for everything from family portraits, landscapes, games, and astrophotography. Very versatile and makes you be in charge of what you are getting.
How fotuatious that I just picked this up to cut my teeth to focus on wide and landscape shots. The imaging you did with lightroom is fantastic. I'm going to learn alot.
I just got one from Adorama. I'm excited for the full frame, the better iso than my current camera (1st gen rebel lol). I have been doing photography for about fifteen years (instagram.com/leebeckut) and I never had a full frame. So stoked. Got this 5D for $75 from Adorama Used. 12mp is cool and yes the classic 5d grain is nifty if u do it right. Check my work out. I have used 40d's, t7i, rebel xt's, and now this. I also bought a new 50mm, my old one was 1st gen and crappy. Got a new one coming from Bestbuy. So stoked because I have a studio shoot with a few models in a week. yes!
I have an opportunity now to buy this camera in really good price from a girl I just met - rn I’m using canon eos 200D and was dreaming about full frame and I’m wondering if would this be a good choice? In two weeks I will shoot my first wedding and i’m so stressed out about the quality of photos from my 200d... Using canon EF 50mm 1.8 with my current camera so do you think it would be a good idea to switch on 5d? great video 🔥
Hi man ... have 5d2 and 5d3 along with some fuji stuff which im not 100 percent sure of (cant beat full frame imo) ... looking to add 5d1 as heard lots of good stories ... and tbh if you use a 5d and a 50 1.8 for street,for example, its not too bad with regard to size weight - and also with full frame you get much better bokeh with regard to aperture being true and not compromised as with apsc sensors .. i've now subscribed after seeing your picture of VW Vanagon which i own here in the UK ... Nice vid and keep up good work ..

You may have to spend all day on ebay watching listings. I got one for $80. Short answer eBay.
Yes it is; my 5D is great!
The 5D Classic was launched in 2005 and that was 15 years before 2020. Where you got 25 years from I don't think the Internet had fully taken off either in that time.
Just what I want!
thanks you !
Why do I only now just found out about SD to CF converters.. After this video I just placed an order for one. I have tons of SD but only one 32GB CF card and that cost a lot.
Just purchased the Cannon 5D classic. Somewhat confused by the multitute of opinions regarding the lenses for this camera. I am not a professional photographer. I missed my Cannon AE 1 and did not want a film camera. I just want to purhase one lens that will stay on camera when I go on vacation and without spending a furtune. Please help. Thanks
yes 5dC for the win!
Loved my MK1 5D. It was my first DSLR. I used it for years and even though it was very old I got great shots on it. Traveled the world with it and it's true, they're built like tanks. I'd still recommend it today for somebody looking to get a cheap full-frame camera. Sadly the sensor in mine got damaged and I had to retire it. I did briefly get a Mark II to use on a trip. It was quite a step up from the original and that's also a great choice as they're not very expensive these days. Wouldn't recommend it for video in 2022 though.
Two things I have to live with is few AF-points (at least 19 like in 70D would be fine) and most of all - the lack of Auto ISO. The latter really sucks. Everything else is good. Ergonomics is fantastic. And I sure don't have to speak of image quality. It's all about it. *P.S.* Be aware of mirrors falling off, though! Learn everything you need about it from *Richard Barley* channel, he's got tons of videos on 5D. I already had to get my mirror fixed. Hope it never falls off again. Cheers!
What about your math? 25 years old...
didnt even try to read the description or other comments did ya?
Great video. I just pick one of those up for $200. I'm old school so I would rather take pictures on this thing cuz all I do is work on Photoshop so it's perfect for me on top of that is absolutely beautiful camera the build quality is absolutely amazing.
The original 5D is a workhorse and still widely used today. It’s solid, built for professional use and delivers. Like any tool, know what it can and cannot do, and it’ll deliver every time. 👍
I agree. I am looking at 5d output online and they look like film. I don’t see that with the newer 5d models. I am seriously looking to buy a used 5d. With the money I save I can buy a few full frame lenses. I also compared the 5d output to the mirrorless r6 and r5 and I think the 5d output looks better. Sharper and more contrasty with a film like look.
I treat my Sony A7R2 like a mud-running Jeep. But I do still worry about it a little.
Came onto photography with digital on a Canon rebel Xs. Then went to film because the pro grade cameras are more reasonably priced. Got into the nikon system, and started adapting my nikon glass onto my rebel. It only does photos, no video, and I'm used to film anyways. Looking at getting one of these just so I can have a full frame sensor, which I can get at a reasonable price.
Hello, I hope you are well. I have a Canon 5d mark 4 camera. When recording a movie, the camera shutter speed is not less than 500 and it has more. Is there a solution or not? What is the problem?
Someone is offering me 150£ with a SD card with 6 bettery n crgr . should I go for it
Nice video
I bought canon t7 for my first good camera I like it and all then reading more on 5d I got one for $75 its been my work Horse on get down to the basics and getting grate pictures
Is all photo raw or you shoot all jpeg
Yet another 5d classic video!
Alistair Prentice the 5d classic doesn't do video
This DSLR is 15 years old NOT 25 years!
What you state of using a dslr to learn photography is so true. I started with a d5000 and it taught me a lot. Now using an a7r3 is so simple.
I have a 5DC I use it for hobby and client work ;)
Hey 👋 thank for this video Canon 5D classic it great Awesome I love this canon camera because I have it and I continous to use it for shooting picture outdoors.. ✅
its a simple camera, yet it works.
Hey man, sick video! I just released my review of the Canon 5D a couple of days ago too! Also those little CF to SD adapters are so good, I was kinda annoyed I would have too use a whole different storage media but now I can just use my SD cards
Couldn't agree more! Thanks for the support and awesome work on your 5D video too!
Gr8 video bro, need to do one on canon eos Mark ii reviews or your idea
Great video my man. I made a video about the sony A7 II. and I love it. even though it's not 25 years old. but I still love it
Ye dji uses this camera on there big drone long time ago
After using several cameras and finally purchasing my Canon 5D I have not bought any more cameras. My only investment has been glasses. Its capacity and sharpness in photos and videos is incredible without counting the expansion that is achieved with the Magic Lantern application. Without a doubt, a super camera that can be obtained now in second hands at an affordable price.
Is this great for photography during travels? Will be used for very little portraiture, mainly landscape sceneries or street. It will be my second camera but not for the same purpose, my 60d for mild action, video and photos that need to be taken in weird positions(on the floor or smth) and 5d for everything else, at least thats what i plan to get the 5d for, will it be worth my price?
The deal im getting is about 250 usd and he kindly included a 128gb cf card which is a steal!
I think you’re going to love it and definitely an awesome price for $250!!!
I just got this camera from my brother, i am totally a beginner so I’m not well verse in photography. I am wondering if 5d classic is capable tethering with my windows 10 laptop.
Windows 10 wasn't out when the 5D classic was released
Great vid! Do you mind going into the settings for the camera? I recently bought one off amazon for cheap. A video of you going around the city and talking about settings would be a huge help! Thanks!
Definitely planning on doing this. Thanks for the love!
hey wheres a god place to get a used camera because rn i live in the middle of the woods haha and i wanna know how reliable ebay really is
"I'd be more worried about the table" lmao
I agree, these DSLR's are made to work in damn near any condition and can take a beating. Thats the only thing that has stopped me from going mirrorless. Every time I've used it they just feel fragile. And that small layer of anxiety can break into getting my groove when I shoot.
100%. Love the durability of a DSLR!
I have it and love it! Been using it for years and use it for everything from family portraits, landscapes, games, and astrophotography. Very versatile and makes you be in charge of what you are getting.
So glad to hear!
How fotuatious that I just picked this up to cut my teeth to focus on wide and landscape shots. The imaging you did with lightroom is fantastic. I'm going to learn alot.
Excellent !
I just got one from Adorama. I'm excited for the full frame, the better iso than my current camera (1st gen rebel lol). I have been doing photography for about fifteen years (instagram.com/leebeckut) and I never had a full frame. So stoked. Got this 5D for $75 from Adorama Used. 12mp is cool and yes the classic 5d grain is nifty if u do it right. Check my work out. I have used 40d's, t7i, rebel xt's, and now this. I also bought a new 50mm, my old one was 1st gen and crappy. Got a new one coming from Bestbuy. So stoked because I have a studio shoot with a few models in a week. yes!
I have an opportunity now to buy this camera in really good price from a girl I just met - rn I’m using canon eos 200D and was dreaming about full frame and I’m wondering if would this be a good choice? In two weeks I will shoot my first wedding and i’m so stressed out about the quality of photos from my 200d... Using canon EF 50mm 1.8 with my current camera so do you think it would be a good idea to switch on 5d?
great video 🔥
more photos to share?
awesome! thank you. my classic should arrive in a few days !!!
Hi man ... have 5d2 and 5d3 along with some fuji stuff which im not 100 percent sure of (cant beat full frame imo) ... looking to add 5d1 as heard lots of good stories ... and tbh if you use a 5d and a 50 1.8 for street,for example, its not too bad with regard to size weight - and also with full frame you get much better bokeh with regard to aperture being true and not compromised as with apsc sensors .. i've now subscribed after seeing your picture of VW Vanagon which i own here in the UK ... Nice vid and keep up good work ..
