CANON  EOS 5D MKII  | Theme : Digital Photography  | D-SLR


What is the most incredible in this story ? Is it the fact that the new official photographer of the White House, Pete Souza, hasn't used a pure professionnal grade SLR like the EOS 1Ds MKIII or even a medium format DLSR like the Hasselblad H3DII-50 with its huge 50 megapixel sensor to shoot the officiel portrait of Barack Obama for the White House or the fact that it is only now, in 2009, that the United States president's official portrait is not shot with an analog camera but with a digital SLR for the first time ever ?  
 
Yes, change is in the air.
