depends on your budget. I have had all three Canon 5D bodies and each was an improvement. But if you want to shoot something like landscapes, the 5D Mark I is still a good camera. I am attaching 2 pics that I shot with the Mark 1. Look at the detail that it captures.


Thank you. Very nice pics. With the MKI I would shoot landscapes but also travel and inside churches that I love.

Image cleaning is something to consider. What am I referring to? Back in my 20D days, and when I was changing lenses during a session, I'd find dirt spots on my images. Okay, just clone them out. Then my good friend bought her 5D. Wonderful camera by the way. The only problem is/was that the full large size sensor was also a dust magnet. So I cooled off my temptation to switch and waited. Glad I did, for my 5DII has the auto clean. Never see a dust spot, even when changing lenses at the zoo.

So, keep in mind that the 5D is an excellent camera, but you may have to address dust spots.

Yes many people say it is a dust magnet and this is something I have to consider because I don't like cleaning sensors etc.

Thanks to all for your replys. It is very usefull input because I'ts the first time I'll get a Canon digital camera other than the Canon Eos M I just ordered at a very bargain price. I'm very undecided between MKI and MKII.

I have both bodies....to me, both are excellent cameras....let's remember that the Mk1 was a premiere Canon camera of its day prior to Mk2 and produced of millions of wonderful pictures. If you're an amateur photographer and not an equipment snob the Mk1 will probably suit you just fine. Remember when reading photography publications that all the cameras they review are excellent....they don't publish a review about a deficient camera since their magazine is or will be seeking ads and free cameras from manufacturers and want to keep them all happy. From some of the comments I hear about 3-5 year old cameras being out of date it makes me wonder "how did photographers like Frank Capa, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Ansel Adams and others get those wonderful pictures with such obsolete equipment"? Maybe equipment isn't the most important part of photography.

I'm absolutely sure that equipment isn't the most important part of photography. Lets say that good equipment helps but doesn't take the shot for you.

According to this website, the 6D beats it by 9 points.

They also say the 6D beats the 5DIII so the report is subjective.


Snapsort is highly unreliable for me.

This information may or may not be useful for your search in Italy, but a used 5D (12MP) runs between $450 and $510 on KEH.com based on rating (prices rounded). In the price range $450 to $550 you'll also find the EOS 1DS (11MP). If you can afford the 5DII (approx $900 - $1600), this is a much more capable camera that I see producing outstanding pictures everyday as posted to 500px.com. But then again, for around 1800 USD you could also get a new 6D...


Thanks. I argue you're saying the 6D is better than MKII?
I'm new to Canon so just asking.

I'd go for a refurbished Mark lll if you can afford it. I purchased mine from the Canon online store and saved almost $800.00.


Here, in Italy, the prices are still too high.

Hello fellow Hogs,

one question. Is the Canon 5D MKI still a good camera/buy or is it better to get a MKII?
General photography: landscapes and travel. Nothing professional only willing to try FF.

What are your thoughts.

Have you shot any pictures of the sun lately. The lens works just like a magnifying glass. I've seen burned curtains before. Either the shutter will need replaced or, at the very least, the burned curtain.

Hi. My name is Rick. I’m the owner and lead technician at Discount Camera Repair and a member in good standing here at the UHH. I’ve been doing repairs for other members here at greatly discounted rates and would be glad to help.

I'd be more than happy to repair the camera for you and keep the cost as low as possible. If you’re interested, please respond by private message or simply reply to this post.

Anything at all is possible when you buy used. At least it came with a warranty as you stated above. Time to find out if that warranty is any good now.

Do you get the spot with more than one lens? It looks like a water (oil) droplet on the rear element of a lens to me.


Just controlled. It is a hole on the curtain. Have you suggestions on how it is possible.

Could be a burn on one of your shutter curtains, but didnt burn thoroughly. Check to see if it worsens with the mirror up and lots of light. In fact remove the lens to see if you can see it when the mirror is up, MUP command.

Must check because I'm away nows and only have one lens but, I'll check the lens even if it is new. It'a a Tamrom 18-270 PZ VC. Tomorrow will check if there is a droplet in the rear of the lens.
