Canon EOS 5D Mark IV


One thing that not a lot of writeups are mentioning is that there's a pretty significant crop of 1.74x if you want to shoot in 4K. Might need to invest in some extremely wide lenses if you need to shoot wide angle.

or some APSC lenses from sigma / tamron without that EFS baffle will work fine. Luckily i am into this more for the pictures side rather than 4K video which my sony will take care of if needed
 

As expected. Nothing crazy and world changing but i would still buy it to upgrade my M3.

One very disappointing thing was the 120FPS. They basically cheat by putting it as HD and everyone is expecting it to be 1080p but its only 720p.

Its quite nonsense because my GH4 has 100fps on 1080p since 3 years ago. Sony has it 2 years ago. I've no idea what are they thinking off for that. Lol.
 

looking at the USD and AUD prices, looks like gonna be at least SGD5K... kind of high compared to the mark 3 launch price.

the HKD price translates to about 4.7K SGD, add GST to it and it becomes 5K SGD too....

I think they might sell it at $4999.
 

Scary RRP AUD5,699 in Canon Au site
 

If close to 6k really can get 1dx2 instead liao if size doesn't matter
 

Canon will milk the first batch of users.

They need to sell high to max the revenue as their market shares are eroding over time
 

Good news to those who wanted to get the M3 as more users will dump it to upgrade to M4.
 

Looks like still not meant to be a high ISO performer based on specs.. Too early to tell though

Um, sorry don't mean to be kiasu but DPreview says it's 1.64x n not 1.74x
Still, it sux coz will need a wider lens liao n I was hoping it wouldn't be that much of a crop factor :(

If really sell closer to $5k, then I think I will just have to stick to my 5d3 until I can save much much more (n after finding some justification of coz)

*vomit blood* :(

That's okay. I got that figure from video skewed sites NewsShooter and EosHD which both stated 1.74x.

Funny lar ... Canon Singapore already release the digital manual but still don't want to release our local price of the 5d4.

Almost all the major countries have their RRP already. CANON SINGAPORE. HELLO!
