Preserving Digital Photos
The problem with digital images is that they are intangible. Pictures can only be viewed when the files have been Ëœtranslated’ in some way, either as prints or converted into a form that can be viewed on a computer or TV screen. It’s easy to over-write existing files inadvertently, either by accidentally re-formatting a memory card or failing to save an edited file separately from an original. It’s equally easy to delete files inadvertently.
Canon EOS 5D Mark II
The long-awaited replacement for the EOS 5D offers higher resolution plus Full HD video capture.Serious photo enthusiasts have been well catered for in the latest releases from Canon, Nikon and Sony but Canon’s EOS 5D Mark II is probably the most eagerly-awaited of the new models, largely because its predecessor was so successful. Interestingly, the body design of the new model has changed very little from the original 5D. This will please many users, since most controls are in familiar locations and the general look and feel of the new camera is essentially unchanged.

Like its predecessor, it provides the P, A, S and M shooting modes enthusiast photographers require. However, the P6000 adds raw file capture and some useful functions like geo-tagging, a built-in Ethernet connection, wireless flash and user customisation.

It’s also reduced the price by $50 and added a GPS receiver/logger to make the new model even more appealing to travellers.
