Exaxclty. That £100 wont even factor in to the resale price a few years down the line. Unless of course our first run versions become collectors items

If it helped stills I would... but for me I do not need the 4k video as of yet, I would like to use it but I'm still fine tuning my abilities of the still settingsAs someone who has no interest in shooting video, I will not be bothering with the C Log upgrade. I suppose this could have a detrimental effect when I finally come to sell it, but that will not happen for some years.
Anyone thinking of going for the upgrade?

Oooo nice, that is sure one nice place to try it out !!...
I just need to get out and about and learn how to get the best from the camera. A trip to Loch Lomond and the Isle of Skye coming up soon.

I'm on the Windows 10 insider fast ring and they still haven't implemented it yet, I have requested it several timesQuick question for Windows users - using win 10, my cr2 thumbs are just plain icons. My 6d and 7dmk2 show the actual thumb of the image, anyone else the same?
I can get by with bridge but prefer using windows for sorting into sub folders, just dragging and dropping

Hopefully by the time I sell or trade mine the upgrade will be a more palatable price... or Free

Same here no 4k playback but if I do get around to doing some I will do 4k just to future proof the files a tad...Yeah, Canon might well drop the cost later down the line.
Every time i get a new DSLR i intend to do more video, i never do. I say its nice to have but I'm more likely to get my iPhone out or GoPro than use my DSLR. Saying that now we have proper AF in video mode maybe i will use it more, but probably stick to 1080P as i dont have 4K playback yet.
Ahhhh not used that... there is a small workaround, as for some reason CR2 thumbnails show on the desktop, so you can drop them on the desktop as a sorting tableI use Fastpicture Viewer Code to do this. Been using the free version for years but lost it, so i had to buy the current version. Only cost £10 so i didnt mind too much, and I expect it will work with any new camera i might buy in the future.

Hahaaa yes, well it is meant to be improved, as long as lenses okay too, mine has been good so far though only the odd shower and minor sea spray... that's if you exclude the dunking in the sea for a couple of seconds when a wave took my feet away :bang:Yeah, if nothing else to test the weather sealing lol.
Ahhh my next fav place, only been a couple of times but I sure wouldn't go without my Lee Filters and TripodIll be going up to the Highlands later in the year, and always look forward to getting out and about up there. For the first time i might take a tripod and try and do some proper landscape work, especially now I have a 16-35 lens to use.
Never really tried myself apart from by accidentI will use 4K at some point I suppose. I want to try my mate Sigma 18-35 f/1.8 and see how well that works. Never got on with it on my 80D.
It should be MEGA easy for them, just very low on a huge list of wants I guessI didn't realise about the workaround, first Ive heard of that. I'm surprised Microsoft cant just find a way to read the embedded thumbnails from any raw file. It wouldn't need to be anything else than that.
Hahaaa nought wrong with that, I brought a stormcoat for mine in the first week tooI went to a parade a few days after getting my 5D4. It rained a bit and i was the only one with a rain hood on their camera, even thoug hi know it would be fine. After spending all that money it didn't feel right to get ti wet lol.
Ahhhh you lucky bugger, that sounds perfect... enjoyWe have family in Aviemore and Kemnay so they make a good base for getting out in to the hills and mountains. Cant wait to use the 16-35 from the top of the Cairngorms.

Agreed that is a wonderful point of view, I love the colours reflecting in the water between them stanchions!!
Nah, not interested at all. I got mine from Panamoz so not sure how i stand anyway, but id rather not have anyone tinker with my perfectly working camera unless i really need them to.
That's how I feel at the moment, work is draining the life out of me :bang:
Anyone able to say whether or not the 5D4 is actually shipping with the latest 4k video specs and C log?
It costs £100 extra so you would know at the time of purchase I would assume
With prices varying and changing as they do it's pretty difficult to see.
As far as I am aware it will always be an optional upgrade, and also pretty sure it would be clearly stated in the add if it was already installed, otherwise the price compared to competitors may appear over inflatedAnyone able to say whether or not the 5D4 is actually shipping with the latest 4k video specs and C log?
Just to update - it got to the point where I couldn't use the dial at all. It is now on it's way back from Canon having been fixed (I hope!). Apparently they've replaced the top plate.
Very impressed with their turnaround time, though I did make a point of signing up to CPS before I sent it off. Posted it on Thursday and arrives back today.
Interesting. I've never had to send anything off to Canon before. I did have a problem with the card reader on my Olympus Em1 ii and they replaced the card reader. I guess it's just quicker to replace the whole thing. The service from both Canon and Olympus could not have been better. I'm very happy to get my camera backIn my experience they don't tend to fix anything but instead replacing entire module, sometimes much bigger than you ever expect.
My 35L's little plastic focus distance window on the barrel was cracked, they replaced the entire lens barrel. So I got a totally new shell, with a new serial number to boot.
A 600EX flash had somehow melted on the top (no idea if it was external or internal) but the worksheet said they replaced the shell and the PCB.
M 5DIV's SD card slot couldn't hold the SD card in place, it just pops out. They replaced the SD card mechanism and also the PCB.

Interesting! I'd forgotten that this had ever happened. I've not had any problems with it at all since.Old thread resurrection time!
My mkIV has developed the same problem and is gradually getting worse. I'm well out of warranty too so it looks like £170 for a fixed price top plate replacement.
I've been tempted by the R5. I bought the R thinking I would sell the 5D4, but I much prefer the 5D4. I just know that it will do what I need and I know my way round it so well. I was thinking of trading both in for the R5 but I am nervous about losing the 5D4.I've got an R5 on order and I'm on the fence about keeping the mkIV at the minute. Either way, I'm going to have to get it fixed I suppose.
Help please.
I have just purchased a 5D Mark iv and wondered if anyone has used the GodoxTT680 flash with that camera. My camera is brand new so I suppose it will have all the latest software.
Nope sorry. I have a 600ex rt and some yongnuo flashes.Anyone ?.

I think when I sent it off I gave them a top price with which to go ahead and make the repair immediately rather than getting a quote.
That's interesting and cheaper than my repair! Mine didn't mention control wheel assembly if I remember rightly so perhaps it was a different problem.I sent my mk4 in to Elstree on Monday via UPS. Received Tuesday evening. Confirmation of receipt on Wednesday at 10:13 this morning, confirmation of amount to pay at 13:36 this afternoon. £107. Just got the notification that it will be delivered by close of play tomorrow.
I'd pre-authorised £250 (thinking it would be a top plate replacement) so was pleasantly surprised. They confirmed 'control wheel assembly' when I rang up to pay so not sure the extent of what have been replaced.
Very impressed with the price and turn-around time. I don't know if it made any difference but I registered all my gear on CPS and scraped Silver before sending it in. I did get a couple of free months of Adobe Photography plan at least.
