What it is

{"overview":"The Canon EOS 5D is a 35mm full-frame digital SLR introduced in 2005, using the Canon EF lens mount and a 12.8-megapixel CMOS sensor. Condition-sensitive factors — shutter count, sensor cleanliness and a working LCD — are the main swing factors on what any given body is worth.","buying_guide":"Check the shutter actuation count where possible, inspect the sensor for dust and oil spots, and confirm the rear LCD and top display both illuminate cleanly. The small sub-mirror can detach on heavily used bodies and the CF card door latch is a known weak point, so test card insertion and card-door closure before buying.

Questions

Is the original Canon EOS 5D still a usable camera?

Yes — it still produces full-frame 12.8-megapixel files and takes any Canon EF lens, though the live view, video and high-ISO performance of later 5D models are absent.

Why is the value of the EOS 5D so low compared to newer 5D models?

The camera is over twenty years old, Canon service support has ended, and the 5D Mark II and later bodies offer higher resolution and video capability for a similar price.
