Key Features
Continuing on in their legacy of powerful workhorse cameras, Canon has released the 5D Mark IV DSLR with 24-105mm f4L II Lens which is an outstanding still photography option and an able 4K-capable video machine. This multimedia maven offers a newly developed 30.4MP full-frame CMOS sensor paired with the DIGIC 6+ image processor in order To balance fine detail and resolution with low-light performance and sensitivity. It is able To work within a native Range of ISO 100-32000, which can then be expanded To an impressive ISO 50-102400, for sharp, low-noise images in a variety of conditions. Along with these improvements To image quality, users will enjoy a performance boost across the board with an enhanced AF system, built-in Wi-Fi, NFC, and GPS, and much more.
In order To deliver detailed images quickly and effectively the 5D Mark IV leverages the power of the DIGIC 6+ image processor, which can handle up To 7 frames per second during continuous shooting. It also uses a 150,000-pixel RGB+IR metering sensor To evaluate the scene and subjects for accurate exposures under a variety of different lighting conditions. An improved 61-point High Density Reticular AF furthers the camera speed by tracking and locking onto subjects quickly and accurately for tack sharp photos. A new AF area Select button is now available as well for near immediate access To this setting.
Video benefits from the addition of Dual Pixel CMOS AF and Movie Servo AF To smoothly rack focus during a shot. Shooters can even make use of the 3.2" 1.62m-dot touchscreen LCD To simply tap To adjust the focus point. Furthermore, now that the camera has DCI 4K (4096 x 2160) video recording at up To 30 fps, users can snag 8.8MP stills from the video for an even faster capture option. Tied into the Dual Pixel sensor architecture is a brand new feature for Canon: Dual Pixel RAW, which allows for fine tuning of certain image parameters, including bokeh shift and focus micro adjustment, after the image is taken.
The body has been further refined for comfort and ease of access, as well as durability and weather resistance. The Canon N3 remote port has been relocated To the front of the camera body and they have added both GPS and Wi-Fi with NFC To make this model a connected camera. This kit bundles the camera with the EF 24-105mm f4L IS II USM Lens, an updated version of one of the most popular zoom lenses ever available in Canon lens lineup. Offering an extremely versatile 24-105mm zoom Range as well as a constant f4 maximum aperture and image stabilizer, users can shoot a variety of subjects with ease. This model also features improved peripheral illumination compared To its predecessor.
In line with previous members of the main 5D series, the Mark IV attempts To balance high resolution with low-light performance with a newly developed 30.4MP full-frame CMOS sensor. This provides a beneficial increase in overall resolution without compromising on sensitivity. Additionally, thanks To the DIGIC 6+ image processor it is paired with, it offers impressive performance within a native Range of ISO 100-32000, which can be expanded To ISO 50-102400.
Versatility is key with the 5D, as it needs To be able To tackle landscapes and weddings with equal ease. By using a 150,000-pixel RGB+IR metering sensor shooters will be able To more comfortably rely on the camera To capture difficult scenes. This sensor also has face detection as well as flicker detection which can ensure proper exposure in less-than-ideal lighting situations. Along with this, the camera offers an improved continuous shooting rate of 7 fps, making it a great option for events and action.
Ensuring your subject is tack sharp, the 5D Mark IV incorporates an enhanced High Density Reticular AF system, which offers 61 phase-detect points, with all points sensitive To f8 and 41 of which are cross-type. The center point can function down To -3 EV for working in extremely dim lighting. Compared To previous versions, this sensor has expanded vertical coverage of 24% on the peripherals and 8% in the center in order To better track and locate subjects in the frame.
In addition To advanced tracking and focusing while using the optical finder for stills, Live View and video can now use Dual Pixel CMOS AF on the actual imaging sensor. This offers about 80% coverage of phase-detection autofocus for faster and more accurate focusing in these modes. It is ideal for video as users will enjoy smoother rack focusing without the downsides normally encountered with contrast-based systems. Also, this works well with the touchscreen functions, allowing shooters To just tap To adjust focus.
Designed for both professional stills shooting and video recording, the 5D Mark IV supports DCI 4K (4096 x 2160) resolution recording at up To 30 fps at 500 Mbps, along with Full HD 1080p shooting at 60 fps at 180 Mbps for slow motion playback. When recording in-camera, 4K video has 4:2:2 sampling and 8-bit color depth, while Full HD 1080p footage has 4:2:0 sampling. Uncompressed Full HD 1080p video can also be saved via HDMI To an optional external recorder with 4:2:2 color sampling. 4K video is recorded using a central 4096 x 2160 area of the sensor at a 1.74x crop in order To record video with an ideal 1:1 pixel sampling ratio, while Full HD recording makes use of the entire full frame.
Audio can be recorded using the on-board stereo microphone or an optional external mic can also be used via the 3.5mm mic jack. Real time audio monitoring is possible, too, via the 3.5mm headphone jack. The 4K video recording also avails the ability To take 8.8MP still frame grabs during playback on the rear touchscreen and save them as single images.
First implemented here on the 5D Mark IV, Dual Pixel RAW allows photographers To record all the information the sensor unique pixel architecture can deliver, providing a way for fine adjustments To be made after the image is taken. These adjustments include focus fine tuning that can help you ever-so-slightly adjust the focus point To bring out extra details, shift bokeh around for improved composition, and reduce the impact of ghosting on your photos. This requires the use of Canon Digital Photo Professional 4.5 software.
