Review on πŸ“· Canon EOS 5D 12.8 MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only) - Perfect for Professional Photography by Adam Mielczarek ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Overall good, but expected more.

The 5D4 is no longer a cutting-edge camera in 2022. For the same price, the mark 3 + and other much more intriguing options are available on the secondary market, such as the EOS R5. This is because the new kenon lens lines have already been announced for the EOS R5, and the older EF lenses can be added using a native adapter.

Pros
  • The clarity of photos has improved across the board, and it appeared that the autofocus on a particular set of points has grown more sure.
Cons
  • Even with native LP-E6N, the charge is consumed very quickly; it would seem that technology is advancing and electronics are consuming less, but not from Canon. Video capabilities are still merely for show (due to limitations on the recording format and the lack of necessary details); if you need a good video camera, it is preferable to look at specialized solutions, such as Blackmagic Pocket. When using telephoto cameras, you must raise the ISO and eat the optics fleet. If you have lenses from the penultimate generation or older, the picture will be soapy at 30 matrices. The same pretty decent colors at ISO up to 1600 and the same hard software "improves" the picture. 4-5, like the 5DSR, typically shoots without blurring at shutter speeds from 1/200 and shorter. Ask for an exchange if errors show up during the first 14 days as there is a good chance the main board has a defect.
