Meanwhile, CNet reports that there is a dynamic range between the Canon 5D Mark IV and its predecessor because of its 1.5 EV, which is just about equal to 1.5 stops in terms of ISO sensitivity. They claim that it would highly depend on the photographer on what they would consider "best-in-class" image quality.
We recently reported that the Canon 5D Mark IV actually packs a punch in terms of what's inside thanks to the guys over at Lens Rentals who deconstructed the camera. For one's there's the powerful 30.4-megapixel CMOS sensor and Digic 6+ processor that promise top notch quality photos. There's also the capability to shoot 4K video at 23.98, 24, 25 and 30 fps for videographers out there. The latest Canon offering also features a new 61-point autofocus system and 100 to 32,000 ISO range care of the built-in digital lens optimizer.
Those who are looking to purchase the Canon 5D Mark IV should wait for it to arrive later this month with a price tag of $4,399 for the unit with the improved weather sealing and $4,599 for the camera with the EF24-105mm f/4L IS II USM lens. This model comes out next month.
