The NEW Canon EOS 5D Mark IV (body only) has now arrived at our
Sevenoaks store-
This could be the DSLR for all photographers, we are incredibly impressed. Here's what Canon has to say about their NEW model...
Capture detail. Capture everything
Designed to perform in every situation, the EOS 5D Mark IV
is beautifully engineered and a thoroughly accomplished all-rounder. A 30.4 Megapixel CMOS sensor delivers images that are packed
with detail and low in noise, even in bright highlight and dark shadow areas. A
finer resolution means nothing is lost, allowing you the freedom to crop in for
the perfect shot and retain the quality.
Revisit and refine: Each of the EOS 5D Mark IV’s 30-million pixels is made up of
two photodiodes, which can be used together or individually. This technology
enables the creation of Dual Pixel RAW (DPRAW) files, which contain a pair of
images shot from two very slightly different points of view. When processed
using Digital Photo Professional software, DPRAW files allow photographers to
perform image adjustments to keep sharpness on the area intended.
Exceptional low light capture: Low light performance is improved at every ISO setting, with
much reduced digital noise and a maximum sensitivity of ISO 32,000 (expandable
to ISO 102,400). Be confident of superb image quality even when shooting in
poor light.
Next level image processing: Built-in Lens Aberration Correction improves lens
performance by compensating for factors like diffraction, distortion and
chromatic aberrations to produce an image which is visibly superior.
Digital Lens Optimizer: A Digital Lens Optimizer adds another layer of correction,
tackling even more optical phenomena, including the effect of the camera’s
optical low-pass filter. The result: optimised performance and incredible image
quality.
Clarity, contrast and colour: The 5D Mark IV features a choice of Auto White Balance (AWB)
settings that take a different approach to artificial light. ‘Ambience
Priority’ aims to retain some of the warm colour tones from artificial light
sources in order to preserve some of the atmosphere of a scene, while ‘White
Priority’ eliminates most of the warmth from tungsten lighting and tries to
give colour-neutral images where possible.
Every detail carefully captured: The ‘Fine Detail’ Picture Style has been included in the 5D
Mark IV to maximise the amount of detail captured by the cameras’ 30.4
Megapixel sensor. This setting prioritises gradation of tones and emphasises
fine detail. Fine Detail Picture Style features three adjustable sharpening
parameters, similar to those found in the Unsharp Mask filter in Adobe
Photoshop and Canon’s DPP software.
Precision as
standard
The EOS 5D Mark IV features advanced focusing and metering
which captures moments and tracks them the instant they happen, even in
difficult lighting.
In the blink of an eye: Stay focused on the action, with an expanded 61-point AF
system that tracks even the most erratic of subjects. In the EOS 5D Mark IV,
the 61 AF points1 have been given a wider area in which to operate – an 8
percent more vertical expansion in the central area, and 24 percent more
vertical expansion in the peripheral area – giving greater freedom in where
subjects can be placed when composing.
Fast, continuous focusing, even in low light: With a highly-sensitive AF sensor the focus performance on
the EOS 5D Mark IV is assured, even down to light levels as low as EV-32. This
is further improved to EV-43 when shooting in Live View with Dual Pixel CMOS AF.
Superior AF accuracy, even with long lenses: If you are a sports or wildlife photographer, you will often
have to use super telephoto lenses with extenders to get closer to your
subjects. With a maximum of 61 points with 21 cross-AF type points at f/81,
high precision focusing is made that much easier.
150K metering sensor: The EOS 5D Mark IV uses a dedicated 150,000-pixel RGB+IR
metering sensor to carry out highly accurate exposure metering. This sensor
also works in conjunction with the camera’s AF system to help detect and track
coloured objects and perform face recognition.
Track your subjects with even greater accuracy: The EOS 5D Mark IV features the EOS iTR AF system, which
greatly enhances the subject tracking performance. Customise the tracking based
on your needs with different modes for when focusing and tracking a face or a
different subject.
Choose the focus performance to match your subject: Canon’s AI servo AF III features an AF algorithm that,
improves the tracking sensitivity in scenes where subject movements may occur
suddenly. Six customisable AF Case study settings help you choose the most
appropriate option for your subject such as Tracking Sensitivity,
Acceleration/Deceleration tracking and AF Point Auto Switching.
Capture the moment under any artificial light source: The EOS 5D Mark IV detects flicker frequency of light
sources and adapts the shooting timings to capture the image near peak
brightness to reduce flicker effects. This function works with a flicker
frequency of 100Hz and 120Hz and has an improved algorithm to prevent the
incorrect detection of flickering light.
AF Point Selection: A new AF area selection button on the back of the EOS 5D
Mark IV makes it easy to switch autofocus points with the camera still held to
your eye.
Engineered
for performance
Legendary cameras are built to last, and the EOS 5D series
brought superior build quality, performance and advanced weathersealing1 to a
new breed of photographers. The EOS 5D Mark IV continues that commitment to
high speed performance and durability.
A processor for faster performance: At the heart of the EOS 5D Mark IV is a fast DIGIC 6+
processor that controls every aspect of the camera’s behaviour, including
turning raw sensor data into high quality image files that are rich in detail
and low in noise, with accurate colours and skin tones.
Capture every moment, frame by frame: Engineered from the ground up for performance, the EOS 5D
Mark IV can shoot continuously at 7fps1 with full AF and autoexposure,
capturing up to 21 RAW images or unlimited JPEGs in a single burst2. You’ll
always be ready for the next frame. In Live View mode continuous shooting at
4.3 fps with AF tracking is possible. You’ll always be ready for the next
frame.
Sharp and precise LCD touchscreen: A high-resolution 3.2-inch LCD screen with intuitive
touch-screen controls makes shooting with the EOS 5D Mark IV a pleasure. Tap to
choose menu commands and swipe back and forth when reviewing images. Four
colour tone options enable you to clearly use the screen at any time, day or
night.
Shoot in silence, remain discreet: Select silent shooting mode on the EOS 5D Mark IV to keep
shutter noise to a minimum. Special damping allows the camera to operate
silently in even the quietest environments.
Mirror Vibration Control System: Camera shake or mirror bounce vibration can cause blur,
which is why Canon developed a Mirror Vibration Control System to minimise this
blur and deliver sharp images with suppressed noise levels; perfect for
shooting discreetly.
View, compose and shoot in total clarity: The Intelligent Viewfinder II with shooting information such
as dual axis electronic level, offers a cleaner, brighter view of the scene
through the lens with a nearly 100 percent view. With shooting information
carefully arranged to facilitate easy and accurate composition, the display can
be customised to suit the needs of the photographer.
Custom Quick Control Screen: Every photographer is unique and works in different ways.
Because of this Canon engineers have made it possible to change the type, size
and position of icons on the camera’s Custom Quick Control screen quickly and
easily, so favourite settings can be found without fuss.
Durability and reliability: The EOS 5D Mark IV features resilient weatherproofing and a
tough magnesium-alloy construction, giving you the confidence to keep shooting
even when conditions worsen. Lighter than the EOS 5D Mark III, the EOS 5D Mark
IV has been engineered for a reliable shooting performance and for longer.
Improve your shooting prowess: Battery Grip BG-E20 brings additional handling benefits to
the EOS 5D Mark IV as well as double the battery capacity, allowing you to
extend your shooting time and stay in control of the moment thanks to vertical
controls for focus and metering.
