Using the D Mark II Menus
With all the new internal features added to the 5D Mark II, the LCD menus needed to be redesigned to handle all the new shooting options, controls, and settings. The new menu layout is similar to the Canon 40D and the Canon 50D and a design departure from the older 5D and previous EOS digital cameras. 5D photographers should have no difficulty getting up to speed with the new menu layout and should also really enjoy the larger type and auto-brightness control on the beautiful 3-inch (diagonal) Clear View LCD.
The 5D Mark II keeps the same color-coded groupings as the old 5D but has added more menus within those sections and a green My Menu area for registering your favorite camera settings (C1, C2, and C3) and up to six frequently used menus for quick recall in similar shooting situations.
- This is a restaurant menu that was photographed by setting a Daylight color balance and then shining a flashlight through a wine glass filled with water. ISO 400, f/1.8, 1/160 sec., with an EF 50mm f/1.8 USM lens.
