5D Mark IV Wood Duck

[Doug Brown]

Received my 5D Mark IV yesterday morning and spent the day getting to know the new body. I posted a 4-stop push in the Photography Gear forum yesterday (click here (http://www.birdphotographers.net/forums/showthread.php/137014-5D-Mark-IV-Shot-from-Today-(With-4-stop-push))), so I thought I'd post an image file on the Avian forum. So far I'm very impressed with both the static subject AF and the shadow recovery. This frame was taken in not the greatest light, but it's representative of what the camera is capable of.

Here's a 100% crop with default DPP sharpening only.

Details look great Doug. You certainly know a thing or 2 about waterfowl photography :w3. Typical perfect image quality that I expect from you. Sharp with beautiful water. Only thing I can see is that to me it could use a little CCW rotation.

I've been thinking long and hard about getting a full frame to complement my 7dii. With so many options out there now with Canon, if you had the cash to buy only one camera, which would you get? 1dxii, 5d4 or the 5dsr? Any input would help.

Very impressive especially the detail in the 100% crop. Thanks for sharing.
