5D Mark IV 5 Pros and 5 Cons in 2022 | KaiCreative

[@KaiCreative]

What do you think of the 5DMarkIV in 2022? Have you got one? Did you have one? Will you get one? Let me know your thoughts and experiences down below 👇😎

[@PhillyNichols]

I have both a 5DMarkIV and a 6DMarkII shooting both photos and videos. I’m definitely leaning towards upgrading the 6D to a mirrorless, but the 5D still meets so many of the things on my wishlist. The fact that the R6 released at the current price of the 5D is crazy! I would definitely go to an R series camera now, but I’m happy with my 5D until I can make that jump.

[@markc1844]

Im definitely going to get a 5D MKiv , before they discontinue them. I have Big Hands and having held a R6 it felt uncomfortably smaller and plasticy- this for me is a Biggy , I love the robust tank like feel & heft of the 5D. Now I do agree with you on the lack of Articulating Screen, however the way its implemented on the R6 is not good, as for grabbing a quick low level shot - you have to fiddle around pulling the screen out and twisting around - which also then leaves it vulnerable to damage. I consider the M series screens better implemented.

[@lifebehindbarsjaogaragomor4512]

I want to have one 😀

[@lb7144]

I purchased a 5D MKIV a few weeks back and it doesn’t disappoint for what little shooting I do. I wanted a full frame to go with my 90D apsc camera. If I really want to shoot 4K, I can use either camera but I primarily will depend on the 90D. I already had plenty of EF & EF-S lenses and eventually, I will upgrade to an R6. I can easily get by with what I have until that time comes. My primary focus on the next large purchase is the Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8 (L) II. One of the better lenses for both cameras especially the 90D. It has a lot of pixels on that crop sensor and will expose flaws in glass.

[@nataraja5703]

After a ton of reviews and research, I have just got my 5D Mark IV. No regrets. Its a sturdy piece of equipment and I am indeed happy with it to own a state of art.

[@AlaskanNomads]

I am right there with you! I shot with a 5D Mark II , and just upgraded to the 5D Mark IV. Even being an older camera now, it is an unbelievable upgrade from the 5D Mark II and I am extremely happy with it!

[@hugocheng55]

True

[@stevenmeansphotography3861]

Question do you rather have the 5d mk iv or the canon 1dx mk ii

[@aaronxalapa]

thanks for these comments Imma buy it

[@quazisanjeed6395]

Thank you for the video. As a hobbyist outdoor photographer; I’ve asked this question to myself and got the answer as well. This is September 2024 and I’m in my late sixties. I have decided to stick to DSLRs. I own six Canon DSLRs, of which five are pro bodies having tons of shutter life remaining. I also own ten native lenses including five L versions. I shoot street/lifestyle photos, landscape, cityscape, nightscape and wildlife images. Not into videos. Would love to get a lightly used 5DIV as well. Already possess the Classic, Mark II & III. I’m aware of the strengths of the mirrorless system and watch fellow photographers use it. However, I don’t see compelling reasons that suggest the necessity of a switch. I’m confident my gears will remain fully useable even ten years later. Thanks again.

[@robertmuzikar5241]

As you, I have a ton of Canon glass. That would be my main reason to consider updating to a Mark 4 vs. starting all over again with RF lenses. I do have a small RF with an adapter, but using it with EF and EFS lenses defeats the purpose of having a small mirror less camera. I take great photos but worry about the DSLR from Canon disappearing.

[@babc97]

Just purchased a brand new one in 2024 for thenext 10 years. I really like it.

[@tuanminh3720]

The color and the looks is top notch and it has chractistic that no other camera has

[@eCommerceImages]

Get in son! Me too! Old school tech just can't be beaten. The 5DMkII never let me down. I shot commercial work on that thing full time for well over a decade. That's bonkers value. PUMPED to get the IV tomorrow! 🙂

[@vincentfernandez8497]

I just got one yesterday.. I've been shooting Sony's for years now. Last camera purchased was the A7cr. To me the pictures straight from the camera are too clinical and precise. Canon's give me a more Ethereal and dreamy picture. I got a old 80D and now the Mark IV.

[@LunkerFishing]

Half a year ago I bought a well worn 5D Mark II. I owned a M50 already but wanted to experience a full frame DSLR. I liked it so much today I just won an auction for a used 5D Mark IV. I know it is an older model but it is still a great camera. This one only has a shutter count of 38K so I feel it is worth my investment for now. Your video helped me decide on this upgrade and I can't wait for the package to be delivered.

[@foilpainterfantasyartist1711]

I have the 5d mark 2 and it still takes great photos!

[@gothgirl458]

Me too! It’s a great timeless Camera

[@mindecolonia]

I also shoot weddings on this one but I want to upgrade. Need something with a better low light performance and better Autofocus 🙈

[@Thomasrulesrs]

I’ve owned my mark 4 since 2018, recently I was photographing a church and the mark 4 fell a good 20 feet down to the first floor. The lens didn’t make it and I had to send the mark 4 in for a new lens Mount but otherwise the mark 4 WAS IN ONE PEACE. This camera is a beast and durable and I won’t give up on her until she’s dust.

[@niceyesplease]

I really must say, this camera is a lot of fun. It feels way more professional than the R5 from a built quality standpoint. 30 MP is awesome, it is not too big, even for family snapshots. Dynamic range is really nice. Paired with the 50 1.8 STM starting at 3.2 and smaller and the image quality is just perfect. Really happy with that camera.

[@robertmuzikar5241]

I really like a full grip that these cameras have. I have a mirrorless camera that takes great photos, but you can't beat the feel of a larger camera.

[@Hansse]

Hi Kai, I own a Mark II, III and IV and I have read dozens of reviews on R cameras and I stil can't think of any reason wy I should part from any of my precious "friends." They are build like a tank and none of them has ever let me down.

[@redwintr3383]

I use a mark iv as well. Dont let the mirrorless trend make you feel like the 5d iii & iv arent good cause theyre "old". Theres a reason people still shoot film... a big part of photography is the experience and i feel mirrorless lacks that. Ive noticed that a lot of people and youtubers that use a mirrorless system use the screen instead of the viewfinder. It feels very opposite to what makes photography so fun. Using a screen just feels like using a phone with better quality. Composing shots while looking through a OVF with one eye closed and hearing that clunk from the shutter makes me feel more connected to my photos and something mirrorless cant replicate.

[@jasonmays1844]

Still running my 5D3. I was toying with the idea of going mirrorless but don’t wanna deal with getting new glass. I may go Mark4 and run that for a few more years

[@delzdevofficial]

Ah, this camera helped me improve in photography so much! It did help me when filming despite the crop factor. Looking to get new camera for filming but still planning to keep and use 5Dmk4 for photography... Thanks for the videos as always xxxxxxxxxx

[@mikecardan]

5D Mark IV my go to camera for stills...I don't care about 4K videos...1080p is more than enough.

[@Ne0nnet]

As a 7D user (it's soooooo old and it's giving me signs it wants to give up) I'm tempted to upgrade to the 5D Mark IV. I know we are a year on from this video, but still tempted as I'm sure it will be a massive step up from what I already have, at a much reduced price. Thank you for this video!

[@KaiCreative]

I was tempted to sell it after this video … but have held on to it - as I have an R and R6 - but it’s such a phenomenal photography piece of kit! I cant part with it just yet 🥹🔥

[@JuanLopezmusica]

Thanks! You gave me the answer to my biggest concern 5:35

[@KaiCreative]

Yes this is something that I think you can live with and work around but as soon as you get your hands on something newer you start viewing it as a hassle 🙄🙏

[@rumtreibbaer]

Got one last year. Wasn't really happy with my 6dii. Using Canon DSLRs since 2006 (300d) I always bought FF lenses. So over the years I collected some EF lenses. Got me a 6dii after a 60d but low light and high ISO were not really my taste. Last year I saw an offer for 2200€ and finally bought a 5div. No regrets so far, yes it's a tank

[@thevesselworship]

Does it mean the 6D mark ii was not doing well in low light as compared to the 5D Mark IV

[@michaeltuffin8147]

Still happily using mine even though I have newer mirror less

As a DSLR lover its really sad starting to see them fade out from the market. Theres a special connection between the camera and me, i dont know its like a special charm of thos mechanical parts.

[@attamans]

If you are thinking about getting a 5D Mark IV, I would highly recommended it. Fit some L lens with this camera, and put some work into getting the fundamentals right, it will produce beautiful 3D like photos, that is really truly stunning.

[@andreawyatt3059]

I have just ordered a secondhand 5d MKIV, not to interested in video recording, I need a stills camera to be a stills camera, not a jack of all trades.

[@KaiCreative]

It is a great camera for stills! So I’m sure you won’t be disappointed- the only downside I find nowadays is the weight with a big lens makes it a bit tiresome to use on a long shoot day 😬

I will probably get another body as a backup, to upgrade old backup. I am still not into mirrorless systems, only one that interests me is r3 for now, but let's be realistic, I don't need it.

[@henryssurfshowcase]

I pick up a used 5d Mark iv because I have a 70d and 80d and wanted to jump to full frame. It’s nice because it takes all my same batteries and lenses..

[@paulordeman5169]

Highly breakable flip out screen on an robust tank camera a con? Not putting an flip out screen on the 5D is keeping with the theme of an robust tank body that can take the knocks and tumbles. If I ever make the transition to an mirrorless camera with a flip out screen, I'll be looking into ways to fix that screen permanently into place so that it never flips out to get broken.

[@KaiCreative]

Actually I’ve never experienced a broken screen on a flip out screen camera- I have experienced a broken 5D mark iv screen - on a trip back from Japan in 2019 .

[@MUSEMENT]

Thanks for the information. You have helped in my research in upgrading in my next camera. I am going to get a Canon EOS 90D since I am a amature photographer, I really don't want full frame but want a good DSLR that has a moveable screen in back which the 90 dose have. The 5D is a good camera, and should be around for years to come.

[@eCommerceImages]

Great video man. The 5D range are all epic. I've owned the Mk I, II and here in 2024, am actually buying the MkIV tomorrow. It's solely for shooting stills. If I wasn't already running a Sony system for video, I'd go mirrorless with the R5 MkII, but for stills, I just cannot complain one bit about the 5D work horses that I've had. I do look after my gear, but geez - I've probably shot 1,000 commercial jobs with one 5D Mk1 body and one 5D MkII body. Big hat-tip to Canon for not programming-in redundancy to these models. Anyone comparing mirrorless vs DSLR for STILLS...look no further. Plus, it has to be said....electronic viewfinders suck balls! LOL! 🙂

[@scottsater]

Thank-you, Kai! I own a Canon EOS R, and am considering an upgrade second body (which for me is a Canon 6D). I'm torn, and your video offered very helpful insights on my thoughts between another EOS R body and the 5D Mark IV. I'm not quite in the budget yet for the R5. Thanks much! Great Video!

[@albertbernal7434]

How does the eos r hold in video ???

[@KPAki1Ler]

I find the fixed screen can be a positive for build quality.

Thank you so much for this info, I luv my Mark IV

[@CiprianTrip]

I'm thinking about buying a 5D Mk IV although I switched to mirrorless simply because it's by far the greatest DSLR ever built (imho) and I want to still get one in mint condition and keep it forever.

[@obscurelines]

I'd recommend this for a lot of pro-ams who want to seem more legit when they do jobs like weddings. You'll still get more professional kudos turning up with a 5d than you will something like an x-t4 or e-m1. 'seeming' like a professional can help confidence.

The Canon 5D iv WILL be my next upgrade from my current Canon 80D (APSC). I've looked into mirrorless, & the prices are scary. I do very little in terms of video footage, so for me a decent still image camera is what I need. Not bothered about the latest tech, 30+ FPS & silent shutters (in fact I love the 'clunk' of a Canon DSLR shutter), so a 5Div it is for me. Not one of the 'negatives' you talk about here concern me - except possibly the articulating screen for low to the ground stuff. Thanks for sharing, now a subscriber to your channel 👍

[@antzgeo7340]

I just picked up a Canon Iv today with a low shutter count I'm excited to start using it. What lenses should I invest in. I'm coming from a Nikon.

[@HELL-BENT74]

Lenses depends on the subjects you will be photographing. For Macro I recommend the Sigma EF mount 180mm macro, as it is longer than the Cannon EF macro which is 100mm. For wide-angle zooms I recommend the Cannon EF 11-24mm ultra-wide zoom.

[@gohumberto]

I'm just about to buy a new one. WHY? BECAUSE : It's as good as I'll ever need as a photographer. I'm an enthusiastic amateur invested in Canon lenses. The 5D series was always designed as a Pro workhorse (and that's what it became). I'll never abuse it in the same way a Pro would so there's every chance it could be a camera for life. Canon make cameras that work. They are rarely at the leading-edge of tech BUT they are generally at the leading edge of practicality, usability and reliability. THEY JUST WORK. I have a Canon 6D (which this will replace), a Canon M50 (hugely underrated camera), a Fuji X100V (a future classic) and I need a TANK in my bag. The 5D mk4 is it. Another future classic (along with the original 5D).

On the job when I have to go from dark inside shots to brighter outside shots the MarkIV is perfect with the optical viewfinder however when using the R5 in the same situation I have to adjust the brightness either up or down to get a correct exposure, very frustrating. On the other hand when shooting fast-moving subjects the R5 with eye detect or subject detect is like being in shooter heaven. 12 or 20 frames per second is just magical. Different tools for different jobs. With all that said my customers have never noticed a difference in any of the photos.

Hi Kai Creative, I am a Nikon User and I love my cameras. I have been considering not switching but having a Canon Camera on hand mainly because at one of my current jobs they use Canon and I really like the flesh tone quality that Canon delivers for portraits. I currently have 2 Nikon D500's and a Nikon D800E. All 3 cameras perform very well. If I do decide to invest in the 5D Mark IV I will be buying it used with a prime lens. My question to you is would it be worth it for me to make the investment?

[@charlesteton]

The 4K gripe is not really that relevant with super wide angles available, use it as second unit to Canon C300 MKII, more annoying is no UHD, just 4K full. Have not added CLOG to, as Canon’s own PDF on it shows tons of possible problems with it, prefer to adjust settings to reduce sharpness, contrast and saturation to match C300 MK CLOG3 images once Canon’s LUT has been applied. Note 4K is 601 colour space.

I am an amateur and upgraded from a rebel to the 5D4 and wow. I love this camera; the pictures are stunning, but this is coming from an amateur

[@brakel8r]

So i have n idea what you said in this review as I'm so distracted by offset of the wood wall. Now...if ya knew me you would know I'm a funny guy and I'm just kiddin🤙😎🤙

[@KaiCreative]

Haha - me too! I’m thinking of pulling it all down and remounting it - but it’s a lot better than what was up there previously 😅

[@emilbaunbartram7993]

So im in a situation where i can buy a 5d IV for half the price of a R6 - I think its a bargain, since im not doing that much video. But im still a little bit in doubt, can somebody help?

[@ralph5609]

thought about the sony a7iii?

[@KrunchyJD]

It's biggest problem is price. It's overpriced in 2022. Considering that the Eos r is arguably just as good and cheaper. The 5d mark IV should at most be the same price new. I was going to buy one, but the Eos r is cheaper and arguably as good, so I'm leaning that way...

[@astinarcisse7549]

Same here

[@cornchips007]

And optional silent shooting

[@definitelynotagoodperson5456]

Exactly I can't justify spending thousand or more bucks for a used 5d mark iv if I could get a Sony A7iii for the same price and get access to a better hybrid photography/videography camera

[@number1chiefROKKA]

I was thinking about getting one. But when you consider the Sony a6000 had an articulating screen a year or so ahead of the mark4 and Canon always finds a way to cripple video features I can not justify getting this at this price point. I love Canon and their color science. Its the best. But this price on it in in June 2022 is a no go.

[@cornchips007]

I ended up getting a second hand refurbished one that is in mint condition with a decent warranty and omg it's amazing. Haven't tried the mirrorless cameras but the 5d takes es lenses which means I can borrow lenses from almost anyone. Almost everyone in my area uses canon so that's a bonus. One of the pros I was recently speaking to said you should just go with whatever brand is mostly used in your area because parts and second hand stuff come up a lot and you can lend and borrow much easier if you're part of the same ecosystem.

[@IntrovertAnxiety]

Which camera do you recommend for HD video content?

[@KaiCreative]

Depending on your budget I still regularly use the canon m50 for HD video and the canon R6 for 4K 👍

[@HELL-BENT74]

Nikon F launched in 1959 🤣

[@Ezrabastian]

Built like a tank and indestructible are myths. Mk4 won't power on without the battery door being shut, it's got a very flimsy contact point. It will shut off automatically unexpectedly.

[@KaiCreative]

An Interesting point of view - although no canon camera will power on without the battery door closed as far as I’m aware - also I think the battery door hinge is a weak spot on most cameras - in terms of being a tank from my personal experience of using it for several years I have never had any issues at all - the only issue for me now is it’s ageing video format 🙏

[@masfotokk1355]

I hope my Canon 5D Mark ii dont know I watched this video.

[@huetuber1204]

So.... your CONS are more video-centric gripes? No problem for this stills photographer.

[@KaiCreative]

Yes - can’t fault it for photography 🤩🤩

[@alexpoggio6082]

Yes, I want a photocamera otherwise I’d buy a videocamera 🤪

[@tranquilsonic127]

Wish you could donate that 5D Mark 4 😭😭, I really need it.

[@820e4cf7jh]

The reality is, there’s no such thing as “old technology” when it comes to certain things. By default, companies market their products with one thing in mind. OBSOLETISM. In a few more years, they’ll bring out newer technologies that’ll have some people looking at their R5’s as though it is a 5D4. Side by side, there is hardly a difference. Mirrorless is not a make or break technology. Just another marketing ploy to sell the next phase of consumerism.
