5D MK2 costs too much

I Want the 5Dmk2 for video recording but think it’s a tad expensive. Nikon has an entry level camera that records video, how long do we have to wait for canon to do the same?

The 5DII has a full frame sensor...that means much great sensitivity; really awesome performance in low light. The full HD video on a full size sensor is so good, several UK TV dramas and movies have been shot just using this camera. If you can afford it, go for the 5DII..I guarantee you will not regret it. :cheers:

I don't know how accurate this line of thought is, but the 5D mk1 has dropped from $3500 in 2005/2006 to around $1500 new in 2010/2011.

If you think that cost's a load of money, have a seat & check out the 1-series bodies! Though they're worth every penny!

An episode of House was shot with a 5D MKII , gotta love the full frame sensor. I think the 7D or 60D has video and the rebel t1 t2 and t3, all for much cheaper

Ihave heard the 5d MK3 will be out later this year. So I can imagine the price of the MK2 will drop. I too want a a MK2. It's just that little bit over my budget.
