Canon 5d mark iv7/23/2023 This joystick works well enough, but it's not as positive or as easy to use as a conventional four-way controller. The quick control dial does take up the space where you'd normally expect to find a four-way controller, which means that for menu navigation Canon has incorporated a small joystick on the back of the camera. There's a dedicated Lock switch which toggles the effects of this dial on and off. It's a bit of an acquired taste compared to more conventional control dials, but you quickly get used to it and it is easy to 'spin'. ![]() This rear 'quick control dial' is characteristic of all high-end Canon EOS cameras, used to apply rapid exposure adjustments. Like other semi-pro cameras, the Canon EOS 5D Mark IV offers two control wheels a small one on the top of the handgrip, and a large, spinning dial on the back of the camera. On the front of the 5D Mark IV is an infrared port on the grip, depth-of-field preview button, self-timer lamp, relocated port for a remote shutter release, and a monaural microphone underneath the camera logo. There's a textured area on both the deep hand-grip and around the thumb-rest on the rear of the camera, and size-wise the 5D Mark IV is perfect for everyone with normal to large-sized hands. The 5D Mark IV has a magnesium alloy body, which should make it more durable in the longer term than plastic-bodied cameras, and it also includes a welcome level of weather-proofing for protection against dust and moisture. The 5D Mark IV is once again very similar to its predecessor in terms of appearance, being very slightly smaller (150.7 x 116.4 x 75.9mm) and weighing 50g less (890g in total) than the previous Mark III version. The Canon EOS 5D Mark IV retails for £3629 / €4899 / $3499 body-only. The 5D Mark IV is also the first EOS camera to offer the Dual Pixel RAW file format, which allows you to fine-tune images in post-production by adjusting or correcting the point of sharpness, shifting the foreground bokeh or reducing image ghosting. ![]() The 5D Mark IV features a 30.4 megapixel CMOS sensor, 7fps continuous shooting with full AF/AE tracking, internal 4K movie recording (4096 x 2160pixels) at 30/25/24 fps and 8.8 megapixel in-camera 4K still frame grab, an expandable ISO range of 50-102400, 61 focusing points with 41 cross-type AF points plus the ability to to use extenders with all telephoto lenses for f/8 AF with all 61 points ( including 21 cross type), focusing in light as low as -3 EV or -4 EV in Live View mode, 150,000-pixel RGB+IR metering sensor, 3.2-inch touchscreen with 1,620k dots, a new AF ‘Area Selection’ button, and built-in Wi-Fi, NFC, secure file transfer (FTPS/FTP) and GPS. I plan to use my 5D4 till I hang up my shutter.The Canon EOS 5D Mark IV is a new professional digital SLR camera. I’m 37 and I’m happily using the 5D4 for three years now and plan to for the next while. It should be whatever the person enjoys using more. ![]() ![]() While I understand the jist of your comment I don’t think age should determine what to buy. Your mileage may vary and worth is a relative term which only you can make for you If I were 40 and plan on shooting for many years and lots images I would get into the new ML system. For me I am in my 60's and don't shoot a lot and like the SLR I think a lot has to do with how long you expect to be buying and using cameras. Also, it hasn’t really gotten any cheaper either haha It’s been a minute since it came out and with all the more current models out, I really wonder if it’s still worth getting it.
