Canon EOS 5D Mark IV Talk [CR1]

[Canon Rumors]

<p>All we know for sure about the EOS 5D Mark IV at the moment is that it will be announced in August for Photkina and should be in your hands by October of this year.</p>

I'd be happy with 32.

Now that's a rumor that might make me hold off on the 5DS I was about to hit the buy button on...we'll see.

That might be with a choice of a full frame 32mp and an APSH crop factor of 24mp. Would be very nice! The 5ds has a 1.5 crop factor choice.

I hope it is just 24Mp...

 

[RickWagoner]

24 seems too low...Then again with 4k and decent fps maybe not.

Way too low, the 6DII should be 24MP, the 5DIV needs to be 30-36MP, 7-8fps. Sick of these tiny 2MP increments Canon is addicted to.

APSH crop factor is 1.3x However pixel number computation from APSH to FF or vice versa uses the square of this value (1.3*1.3 = 1.69 ~ 1.7) So if it is 32MP at FF it will be about 19Mp at APSH.

I hadn't noticed it was Northlight. Now I am relieved. The rumor is below CR0 ;D

Why even post it? If you KNOW it's not reliable, why post it? Northlight is never correct. Ever. I don't get it.

 

[K]

Not happening. 5DS is Canon's answer and then some to the D810.

Because without traffic there is no profit for websites.

 

[RGF]

32MP would be very nice.

Wonder if it is true?

I've heard the same rumour from my local Canon rep as well, but they suggested that it wouldn't be cropping but pixel binning. Personally I dont know why the photographers that the 5d4 will be aimed at would want more than 24mpx. Most D810 wedding shooters I know run theirs in 24mpx mode. I would imagine that for wedding/photojournalism an increase in dynamic range would be preferable to megapickles and as we saw with the 5ds/r, for Canon more mpx=less DR

It is appearing other places, including this forum and Northlight. It's rare that "canon rep" rumors turn out to be true, but it has happened.

 

[Camerajah]

32 have my attention,if it turns out to be true it better be without AA filter

Hope there is an option for no AA filter but I don't think so. With the 5D series used by wedding photographers, a moire pattern would hurt Canon. I think they will go safe here.

 

[MaxFoto]

Make it 32mp, 8-FPS, 4K video, 1-stop better DR & ISO, same AF as the 1DX II (minus the additional processor), and price it at $3200-$3500. The camera will be a huge success with those specs at that price.

Even after 32 million posts, you still miss the point of a RUMORS site?

Cheers!

32MP 7-8 FPS with 4K, that would be the most impressive upgrade to this line. I wouldn't mind upgrading to FF just for that.
