TheEOS-1Ds Mark II is adigital single-lens reflex camera body introduced byCanon Inc. in 2004.[3] It was the top model in theCanon EOS line of digital cameras until April 2007, with afull-frame 16.7 megapixelCMOS sensor. The EOS-1Ds Mark II had the highest pixel count available in a 35mm format digital SLR at the time of its introduction until its successor was announced in August 2007. It uses theEF lens mount. The EOS-1Ds Mark II is a professional grade camera body and is large, ruggedly built, and dust/weather-resistant.
Being an autofocus camera, it has multiple autofocus modes and uses a 45-point autofocus system, and an option for manual focusing. Its viewfinder is a "fixedpentaprism". It also has a 2",TFT colorLCD. Its dimensions are 156 mm in width, 157.6 mm in height, and 79.9 mm in depth (6.14 in × 6.20 in × 3.15 in). Its mass (without a battery) is 1,215 grams (42.9 oz).
The camera's image sensor is a single-plate CMOS-basedintegrated circuit, 24 mm × 36 mm in size; the same as 35mm film. It has approximately 17.2 million total photosites (16.7 million effective pixels in the final output). It uses aRGB primarycolor filter.
Theshutter is an electronically controlled focal-plane shutter. Its maximum speed is 1/8000 of one second and it is rated for 200,000 actuations. Soft-touch shutter release occurs via electromagnetic signaling.
On 20 August 2007, Canon announced the successor to the Mark II: theCanon EOS-1Ds Mark III.
