Canon EOS 5D Mark II

The Canon EOS 5D Mark II is a full-frame digital SLR announced in September 2008, built around a 21.1-megapixel CMOS sensor and the Canon EF lens mount. It was positioned as a prosumer and working-pro body, and was the first Canon DSLR to offer 1080p full HD video recording, which drew a substantial following among independent filmmakers alongside stills photographers.

At UK auction in 2026, hammer prices for the 5D Mark II have settled into a roughly £100–£480 band, with a median around £280 based on recent saleroom results. Today the value is heavily condition- and shutter-count-driven: tidy bodies with low actuations and a working battery sell for the upper end, while scruffy or untested examples sell for closer to £100–£160 at wholesale saleroom level.
