Canon 5D MK4 vs 7D MK2 vs 1DX MK2 ai-servo
Posted: Fri Jul 24, 2020 12:10 am
I have the 7D MK2 and like the ai-servo tracking. How does the 5D MK4 compare to the 7D MK2 and 1DX MK2?

Thanks E.J. I read a good article (googling) on the 5D MK4 which put its capabilities into perspective for me. If Canon is not upgrading the 5D line anymore (rumoured at this time only), I am wondering if they will just continue making the 5D MK4 or discontinue it. I know, no one knows except Canon. Will be paying attention to this over the next several months. My wishful thinking is, maybe the price will drop even more - under $3,000 CAD. I plan to pick one up when that happens. Someone who has the 5D MK4 said she may have gotten it for $2,900 at a local retailer on sale. Then again, all retailers have to stick to Canon pricing (I disliked this policy strongly when it was implemented). Gone are deals and "Amazon pricing". Oh, well.E.J.
