Gear Talk: Game Changer
We took the plunge! After months of salivating over this beauty, it’s finally ours. Meet the latest piece of equipment to join the 5byseven.com arsenal, the Canon EOS 1D, Mark IV. We received it just in time for a wedding we photographed this past Saturday. And this beast passed with flying colors. Photos to follow.
At first, I was a bit disappointed that Canon’s latest 1D model was a cropped sensor. But after thinking about it, I figured this camera would use all our prime lenses and leave the other lenses for the 5D, Mark II, a perfect combo for our wedding photography. At 10 fps, high precision 45-point area AF sensor and new AI Servo II AF Focus tracking system, this camera is going to be hard to get off my hand. It’s built like a tank and is noticeably heavier than our 5D. I use it with a Black Rapid R-Strap and Canon hand strap.Â
