Canon EOS 5D Mark IV5D Mark IV Black 2016
30.4MP full-frame sensor and DIGIC 6+ processor produce sharp images, while 61-point AF and 7fps burst handle action reliably. DCI 4K video with 8.8MP still grab and built-in GPS/WiFi expand functionality, though the fixed touchscreen and no stabilization limit handheld versatility. Best for studio portraitists and event photographers who need dual pixel RAW for precise focus adjustments in controlled settings.
