This 2010 Canon Digital SLR Still Wins Out Over The 2020 Canon R5 Mirrorless

I'll make this quick

If you want to make better sports pictures and like saving a lot of earned income, check out the Canon 1D Mark IV (4)

Let's be clear. 

Overall, the newer Canon R5 slays dragons compared to the Mark lV but....get ready....The Mark IV still beats out the R5 in one category.

Sports Photography. 

Don't believe it? 


The team over at cameradecision.com compared the two camera bodies

Turns out the Mark IV got an 83% rating compared to the R5's 77% rating when it comes to photographing football, basketball, baseball and more. 

The autofocus tracking on the Mark IV is fast enough to cover every level, including little league baseball all the way up to NFL and NBA. 

If you're interested in taking a look at a pre-owned Mark IV, visit www.keh.com and search for the 1D Mark IV

Always buy the Excellent condition or higher from KEH. As this story is written, the Mark IV is selling for approx. 25% of the cost of an R5.

  1. Had no idea. Would have assumed the R5 killed the Mark 4 in autofocus speed. Great Stuff!
