Canon shutters the EOS 5D Mark II, makes Mark III man of the house

Given the advent of the EOS 5D Mark III, it’s hardly a surprise to see that the Mark II has been quietly moved to Canon’s retired list. The full-frame DSLR was famous for its HD video prowess and was quickly adopted by Hollywood, where it was used to film an entire episode of House back in 2010. While the spirit of the 5D lives on in the latest revision, the old dog most definitely deserves a toast ’round the fire.
