Nothing special, just took a few handheld shots this morning so I could post some raw files for those that are interested

The shadows look clean, looks like the MkII has an additional stop of DR over the original
-
Lots of moire. Otherwise looks pretty clean.

based on the raws or the jpeg? the jpeg is pretty awful but gets better if you press + over the image.

I only grabbed the first 3. Processed one in ACR 5.2. 0036, I think.

Yes #36 has moire and is easily showing extinction resolution in the vents at 200%. This would be quite obvious on a larger print.

Marc,
your 5D2 beats your 5D by at least 1/2 EV in the darkest regions @ ISO 100 (I used one of your earlier posted 5D raw files). This is on a per pixel basis, add the extra pixels!
Do you still have the color checker card? If you make a serie of raw shots with each ISO, up to 3200 (save the higher ones, they are fake), very evenly lit, 3 EV underexposed, then I can measure and compare their noise/DR behaviour. IIRC, you had converted the 5D in IR, right? That does not matter, the noise characteristics is not affected by that.

Yes I would but I am in Tokyo for 4 months of training so I don't have access to my color checker. (lucky though here I picked up the 5DII on the 29th in the US they are taking orders for April!) I will return home the second week of January but by then I'm sure all the reviews will be out. I sold the 5D maxmax (AA removed not IR) to help fund the 5DII so I cannot do a side by side comparison. My first impressions though are the shadows are much less noisy and usable. Also the fine detail like foliage is more realistic. When I return home I'll take the pictures of the color checker and post them. I think the sensor is in the same league as the 1DsIII so for $2800 I'm happy (for another 3 years!)
