EOS 5D Mk I

The EOS 5D Mk I camera, formerly installed on the ECO-Dimona, is available as a backup to the more capable Mk II, and has the potential to fly on larger UAS. It is also available for hand-held oblique photography from other platforms.

Our EOS 5D Mk I was originally used as our survey camera on the ECO-Dimona until 2011. It is now employed as a backup to the Mk II version and is available for handheld photography from alternative aircraft platforms.

Lenses are interchangeable with the Mk II. Typically a EF 85 mm f/1.2L II USM Lens is useful for handheld acquisitions.

 

General Specifciations:

  • Sensor: 12.8 MP, size  35.8 x 23.9mm
  • Pixel Dimensions: 4368 x 2912
  • Aspect Ratio: 3:2
  • Image processor DIGIC II

The 5D Mk I is basically compatible with the ECO-Dimona EF19B sensor package as a backup to the Mk II installed there. Some additional software tweaks may be required to make it work. 

The camera is also available for hand-held work, and potentially for larger UAS platforms subject to integration.


We have one EOS 5D Mk I available.
