Well it is a game changer on it for sure. Imagine a ML Raw hack, Woot! Well unfortunally it is like 1500 bucks more,but it is FF, and they Do take some damn nice pictures, not counting Canon's Color Science, and well DPAF doesn't hurt in it either. I think the XF-AFC file format is a really big deal also. Moving up to big boy Canon Codec. Geoff CB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Canon is finally going to given us what we all were waiting for.....but I don`t think ML will hack the 5dmkiv anytime soon, they are focused in something else.....but if they did.....just imaging a Canon with 4K raw.....a total revolution like the 5dmkii webrunner5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That IS a big deal. That would make the GH5 look, well, weak Codec wise. I can see quite a few people changing their minds on the buying the Canon now. Hell I might even consider it myself.

I will chose this 5dmkiv over GH5 any day of the week, and I am sure many GH5 preorders will not be sleeping well tonight....

Heatsinks has to be modifed in order to run new firmware without premature warning also last ML update work was on 70D 3 years ago roughly and again why pay 1500$more for tech thats outdated ? 6 minutes ago, hijodeibn said: 10bit vs 8bit, is there any noticeable difference?, yes, but only for the expert eye, and give a little more room to push in post, so it is really not a break dealer, and guess what, you have the chance to get RAW from ML in the future....mmmm!!!! focus peaking.....I don`t care, i am a filmmaker, all i need is DPAF from Canon..... let`s see the price...GH5 = $2,000 , but you also need metabones = $700 , total $2,700 Canon 5dmkiv, BHphoto = $3,400, but I saw it for $2,700 on ebay since last week from a store in NYC, and guess what?, yeap, it just sold out minutes after the announcement of crop factor reduction....

If focus peaking is your deal breaker I guess you have never filmed in celluloid, I have shoot in 35mm with a Konvas and 16mm with an eclair NPR, you can not imagine how tiny is the viewfinder in the NPR, of course I didn`t have focus peaking and never needed, there is something called focus chart, probably you should familiarize with it, DPAF is another history, for doc and run&gun is a bless.....yeap, as a filmmaker I could not care less about peaking....

Yeah I remember those LoL. They looked like a pee hole in the snow viewfinder wise.. That is why they used tape measures in the day, and still do. But wow they were a great outfit to own.

Matthew19 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 so would the new 5632 x 2970 sensor readout would be 5.5k oversampled to 4k right? Man, if they can do this on the 5d think of what could be done with the 1dx II . I feel left out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their firmware releases are like one small increment along the lines of "Fixed function that no one will even notice anyway." I nearly bought a Canon 1DX II and decide against due to lack of native CLog and the silly bastard file sizes in MJPEG, as well as the cost of Cfast2 cards. Now I've got the FS5, A6500, A7SII and Shogun Inferno. Ooomph!! These additions could make it more compelling for video, maybe if I shot way more stills all of a sudden, (which is unlikely), I'd get one (if the update is sure). Surely the 1DX II will get this too? (if true). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webrunner5 Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 Well the damn things I guess had to have had at least a 5.5k sensor in them all the time I guess or more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rava_Rama Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Does 5d mark 4 have Anamophic mode by any chance? could be handy for film making Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webrunner5 Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 I don't think it has a dedicated Anamorphic mode?? This is some interesting questions and answers about the 5D mkIV from B&H to get people up to speed about some of it's features. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/explora/photography/features/47-readers-questions-about-canon-5d-mark-iv-dslr-camera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kisaha Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 @Rinad Amir We all read quite well in this forum, no need for bold and bigger letters to be heard. Canon "will" have 72-75 frames! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
