New Camera: 5D Mark IV

At the end of last week I went and picked up a 5D Mark IV – I almost can’t believe it myself.

 

I have had a chance to get out with it a bit over the weekend, and did some comparisons with the 5D Mark III. The first thing I noticed when switching between the two cameras was the that autofocus does acquire focus quite a bit quicker on the 5D Mark IV than the 5D Mark III. This is likely attributed to the new sensor and possibly an improved algorithm (taken from the improved autofocus on the 1DX Mark II).

 

The burst size and frames per second has also improved compared to the 5D Mark III, getting a burst of about 20 images (in raw format), and 7 frames per second.

 

I’m still waiting for Lightroom and Capture One Pro to support the raw files for the 5D Mark IV, so I haven’t done much reviewing or editing of the images. So stay tuned into future blog posts for images and detailed thoughts including the ISO/noise performance of the camera.

 

I’m looking forward to bringing both this and the 1DX Mark II to the Great Bear Rainforest at the end of next week to test them out in my normal shooting conditions.
