Canon 5D MkV

Canon’s 5D seriesis the

solid backbone ofits

pr osumer range, and

one of the most popular

cameras of all time.

We believe Canoncould

be lining up a releasefor

la ter this year thatwill see

th e mighty 5D seriesinherit

th e DIGIC X processor,a newer

45MP sensor and uncropped

4K video. It may also be the

first DSLR in the line-up to

benefit from in-body image

stabilisation, as well as boast a

maximum capture rate of 20fps.
