• UPDATE



    The forum will be moving to a new domain in the near future (canonrumorsforum.com). I have turned off "read-only", but I will only leave the two forum nodes you see active for the time being.

    I don't know at this time how quickly the change will happen, but that will move at a good pace I am sure.

Re: Canon EOS 5D Mark IV Specifications and Image

Did the image come with the rumors? If so, I put a lot of faith in them-- I'm very confident that image is real.

Honestly-- who would have thought of them putting the cable release by the Mark III badge? There is obviously not enough room with a USB 3.0 connector and headphone jack on the port side, as seen with the 1DX mark II. It makes sense to me that they would move this stuff around, and there wouldn't be any other space for the cable release to be, unlike with the 1DX mark II hand grip.

I also notice immediately the new ridge that surrounds the prism-- this makes sense to me, since this would possibly be a non-magnesium alloy part of the frame, allowing *** and wi-fi built-in without a *** bump. This is another small feature that I doubt someone would fake, since the obvious thing would be for a faker to just throw the *** bump on a 5D body.

I'm confident that that image is the real 5D mark IV though.

Re: Canon EOS 5D Mark IV Specifications and Image

30MP huh? If the video specs are as rumored here, that will likely make me want to eat the 1DX2 price tag, since I could get more use out of it for my dance subjects (both stills and slow-mo video at 120 fps in 1080p with DPAF that 5D4 likely wont have) instead of renting it every year.

I'm getting antsy. I wish the final specs would just come out already so I figure out what to do LOL

that "Mark IV" looks pretty faked.

alot of pixelation around the EOS, 5D and Mark IV in the image.

Re: Canon EOS 5D Mark IV Specifications

BTW, given those video specs, that explains the lack of CFast slot in the rumor set. The 1DX2 uses it for 14fps stills, 60fps in 4k, and 120fps in 1080p. The 5D4 appears to be doing none of that according to this list.

ANd that bump on top you mentioned looks like the hot shoe. Not a notch in the body like the 1dx2

the curve of the front of the pentaprism is certainly different than the 5D Mark II and III.

It's legit... bigger one shortly.

looking at the 5D, 5D Mark II and the III .. there's no other body that matches where the groves / seams are, and the shape of the pentaprism.

it's unique.

I'm hoping the bigger bulk is for something worthwhile.. there has to be a reason for the increased size of the housing .. wifi / *** .. or hybrid viewfinder? 8)

Re: Canon EOS 5D Mark IV Specifications

How many fps at 30mp? That is the question I have now. Glad to see 30mp. This will be a good small, perched bird camera for me. I have the 1DxII for my fast action birds in flight. The 5DIV at 30mp will do the small bird job.

The old position on the 5's and 1's never made sense if you used an L-Plate. Thank goodness they have moved them it was well overdue.

I hope it shoots at 8fps = 240Mp/sec ~ 250Mp/sec = 5 * 50Mp of 5Ds(R)

But I am not optimistic...

8 fps would be awesome. That would fall nicely behind the 10 of the 7DII and the 14 1DxII, so it seems not out of the question, but 6fps is more likely in my mind.

Front of the camera for cable release? I suppose it will have its own new cover?
Is it the same connector even as previous or will Canon do an Apple?

I really have no doubt that it's the same 3 pin cable. 1DX mark II also moved its cable release and it still has a 3-pin.

Re: Canon EOS 5D Mark IV Specifications

all good But
I wish for a spot meter link to focus.. c'mon guys just that one little stocking stuffer....


I wonder how deep the RAW buffer will be? at 8 fps

20? 24?(my guess)

////
I guess the new 24-105 will be about $1400 making the kit about $4500....
..I would do that IFF the new 24-105 has better sharpness and blue goo...

Re: Canon EOS 5D Mark IV Specifications

I have to admit I'm surprised by 30mp. I guess I am in the minority, not caring about higher mp counts. I do wonder what the high ISO performance will be like. I expect that it will match the 5D III, but may not exceed it. (Just like the 1DX and 1DX II)

Perhaps sensors have pretty much reached their upper limit on ISO and the major improvements in the next few years will be dynamic range at base ISO and increased megapixel count?

Expanded touchscreen use is a welcome addition. I hope that eventually Canon unlocks some added functionality for the 1DX II -- Going through the "Q" and regular menu by touch would be nice.

Surprised also by the lack of CFast. With only video and the 1Dx using CFast I guess I can't expect the price to drop much anytime soon. I kind of hoped the added demand of a 5D would drive down the price.

Anxiously awaiting more info.

Re: Canon EOS 5D Mark IV Specifications

Anyone that is upset to see the 5D Mark IVnot having 120 FPS 1080, should probably go look at the 1dx Mark II 120fps. That footage looks pretty horrible, and I doubt anyone would actually deliver that to a client except for a rare case...

If this gets 8-9fps, a usable buffer on both cards and not just the CF, better low light AF and overall sensor performance, I'll be happy to dish another 3 grand to Canon.

Be realistic, folks. Sony cameras have created false expectations for a consumer camera from a professional camera manufacturer.
