Canon 5D 'Classic' - Definitely Still Worth Using in 2024!

The time has come to try out the original Canon EOS 5D from 2005! Over the years it has become a legendary camera and is also known as the "5D Classic", because it is the first in a long line of 5D cameras. In this video I will go through why it is still a fantastic camera in the year 2024!

The 24-105 F4 L lens is a nice lens. It's good for all kinds of general work, from people to landscapes. Stop it down as needed for sharpness and DOF.

Thanks for the suggestion, I will take it into consideration!

I have the 5D Classic with the EF 20-35mm F/3.5-4.5, the EF 24-85mm F/3.5-4.5 and the EF 70-210mm F/3.5-4.5mm. A great trio for the camera. I'm also looking for an EF 28-105mm F/3.5-4.5.

I've been thinking about getting the 20-35mm, seems like a good weight/size ratio for a wide angle lens.

I've been using the 50mm 1.8 II and it is very good,I also have the 28mm but have not tried it yet,also a couple of old cheap kit lenses from cheap film cameras which are almost ok but I think I need to try them using manual focus.....................................................

I had the 50mm for my 400D. The image quality is great and I was using it a lot, then I dropped it and it was in many pieces... I would get one again if I could find one for 20 euros or so. The weird thing is that they cost more used now than what I payed for a new one in 2006.
