Lots of companies like to claim lots of things.

Look at RED...they LOVE to claim DR much higher than they actually achieve. Its all marketing. The proof is in the actual photos.

Im not sure what the usable DR is on that camera...but I just operated a feature using them, and its impressive. I've always liked the C series EOS cameras, and the mkII is a huge step up to the original.

Yea, I hear that too about the C300.

Anyways Cinema5D ran a test and got closer to 12 stops. Canon responded to their tests with how canon tested themselves for 15 stops. Canons test method was similar to Cinema5Ds test but a bit different.

Anyways the conclusion was that since there's no standard way to test it, you can't trust all the test, but go by real world usage.

would be nice, but canon will somehow disappoint us by making a step notch lower than the 5D4.

Canon to Debut Full-Frame Mirrorless Model at Photokina: Report

The Canon EOS M line of mirrorless cameras hasn’t been a big hit—at least not in the US of A—but Canon may do something big with it by the end of this year. We’re talking “full-frame mirrorless” big.
According to a new report by Canon Rumors, two EOS M models are in the works for the end of 2016 (possibly a Photokina release): a minor update to the EOS M3, and a 24MP full-frame model aimed at prosumers.

The news comes from two different sources, both of whom told CR about the size of the sensor and that the camera would take EF lenses.


CR’s sources didn’t reveal anything more than that, but if the rumor is true, Canon might finally be preparing to compete with Sony’s FE offerings.

The questions that come to mind now are: is it too little too late? and will they be able to compete with Sony’s years of experience in the FF mirrorless market? Let us know what you think in the comments.

There's also some tumors about the 6D Mark 2.

24mp same as 5d Mark 4
Possibly no DPAF
Early 2017 announcement and release.








Honestly I'd love it if they would add the 80D AF system. Improved sensor. bump in mega pickles. Articulating LCD screen and 100% viewfinder.

Having DPAF, joystick & touchscreen would be nice, but not needed.

If this is true and it can match or beat the low light performance and dynamic range of the Sony cameras, I'll sell my a7II and move right back into the Canon camp.

I do like that it'll accept EF lenses, no adapter needed.

With the reviews ive been reading about the 80D, I'm sure it'll get close in terms of DR.

80D doesn't come close to the A7II let alone the A7RII in terms of low ISO dynamic range or low light performance. More than likely this is a result of the full frame vs APS-C sensor but it's still a rather night and day difference between the two.

I've read that the dynamic range on the 1dx2 is pretty disappointing though.

I went there and did what you did. I see what you mean.

Mine was based on reviews by actual users of the camera in real world settings, not a studio example.



Seems to be about a 1 stop advantage over the 70D and 1 stop short of the a6300/d7200

Either way it's a good thing there's more DR available.

Oh absolutely, it's far and away better than the previous revision which is awesome but it's still not there as good as the competition which is concerning for a product that was released after the competition in such a contested space.

You're right that it won't be as apparent in real world examples but they are so varied that it's hard to get good take aways from them. Studio is much more controlled so the real characteristics can be seen. It's all pixel peeping in the end, you can get great images from just about anything on the market these days.

Major Camera Rumors from Canon
Canon 5D Mark IV


Image via ShutterstockThe Canon 5D Mark IV officially-unofficially exists. The camera has not been announced, nor has the name been confirmed, but photographers are currently testing the camera ahead of an August or September announcement. Canon Rumors believes that the hardware isn’t set yet, but we can expect a camera that can shoot 4K internally and 1080p up to a staggering 120fps. The 4K capabilities aren’t set, but it is rumored to shoot 4K up to 60fps.I expect to hear something around late August or early September leading up to Photokina in Cologne, which takes place September 20-25. Hopefully that will get the camera on shelves in October. Rumored Specs:
  • 24.2MP Sensor
  • 61 AF Points (41 crosstype)
  • DIGIC 7+ (Single)
  • 4K Video Recording
  • 1080p up to 120fps
  • ISO 100-51,200 (expandable options)
  • 3.2″ touchscreen LCD
  • CFast/SD card slots
  • Wifi built-in
  • GPS built-in
  • BG-E20 battery grip
  • LP-E20 battery
  • Slight weight reduction

EOS 5D Mark IV Launch Price to be $3499 USD / $4299 CAD | Canon Camera and Lens Deals - canonpricewatch.com

We now have confirmation from several different sources that the initial launch price for the EOS 5D Mark IV will be $3499 USD (in the USA) and $4299 CAD (in Canada). This is assuming no last-minute pricing changes by Canon, which are still possible.This pegs the EOS 5D Mark IV at the same launch price as the EOS 5D Mark III in 2012. Although the new camera is packed with a bunch of new technology (including 4K, WiFi, and GPS), it’s surprising that Canon didn’t go for a lower price point given all the competitive pressure from Nikon and Sony mirrorless.The announcement and pre-orders are imminent, with many sites reporting midnight on August 25th. The camera is expected to ship in early September. To get notified by e-mail when the items are announced and available for pre-order, please click on the blog link below.

i haven't emailed them yet, but the 5D Classic reached end of life back in Sept 2015.
They may not touch the thing anymore even if I pay for it.

In case you guys want to see what happened.





Worst case I put 4 tiny drops of superglue on those 4 black dots on the mirror.

those are the existing spots where canon glued the mirror.

We now have confirmation from several different sources that the initial launch price for the EOS 5D Mark IV will be $3499 USD (in the USA) and $4299 CAD (in Canada). This is assuming no last-minute pricing changes by Canon, which are still possible.This pegs the EOS 5D Mark IV at the same launch price as the EOS 5D Mark III in 2012. Although the new camera is packed with a bunch of new technology (including 4K, WiFi, and GPS), it’s surprising that Canon didn’t go for a lower price point given all the competitive pressure from Nikon and Sony mirrorless.The announcement and pre-orders are imminent, with many sites reporting midnight on August 25th. The camera is expected to ship in early September. To get notified by e-mail when the items are announced and available for pre-order, please click on the blog link below.
That's a STEEP asking price for a camera that may or may not compete with the A7RII (which is more than a year old now) right out the gate. If this thing doesn't have a competitive high ISO performance and dynamic range...

Only saving grace that'll keep it going for now is the AF system and lens lineup but that's quickly changing too.

Yeah, agreed

I wish they would have priced it more aggressively.
