The headline of the dpreview article is more encouraging than the full text… “Canon 5D Mark IV brings dramatic dynamic range improvements to the 5D line” ends up saying that the Nikon D810 and the Sony a7R II, both of which use Sony sensors, handle dynamic range much better than the new Canon.
For folks with a chest full of EOS lenses and a strong back to carry them all, perhaps this camera is worth the trip to Amazon. Meanwhile Sony is not resting. They’ve released a 50/2.8 Macro lens that can take a picture down to 1:1 magnification (i.e., a 24x36mm object will fill the frame of an a7). Press release on dpreview.com.
Perhaps it is worth a trip to Cologne this year for Photokina!
