Canon Full Frame Comparison

The 80D was way better than the 90D for birds in flight. However I feel the 5D MK IV is better than the 80D.

One thing I have learned in photography over the many years is - you can NEVER say never - and it be true !
Can you PROVE that it does NOT ?? - and no, I cannot prove that it does either . but, just THINK about it is all I ask .....

You current body doesn’t weigh zero...so it is only the difference...

I was leaning that way, but dang that thing is heavy! I do a lot of walking and I imagine I’d feel an additional 3lbs, but if it’s that much better (and I imagine it is!), I’ll just have to lift more weights!

It doesn’t slow down my 1Dx2 with a CFast card. You can basically hold the shutter button down until the card fills, the buffer will not hold you back in reality. The MkIII is even faster with newer processors...

I'd be more concerned about the day the week or sunspots being a more likely culprit, but that's just me ...

Yes and no. It depends on size and setup. Olympus shoots RAW+JPEG at 60fps, but it is only 20MP. And it is not refocusing between frames. It can refocus between frames at the mechanical shutter speed of 18fps.

Can i ask what you’re referring to so I know? It doesn’t show what you’re replying to and I’d love to know!

One other thing I will say is AF speed is, ultimately, dependent on the Camera body AND the particular lens in use. Prime lenses, because of their smaller and fewer lens elements to focus - are able - to mostly focus faster than their zoom lens counterparts - In the same way, smaller f-stop zooms and lenses without IS - also tend to focus faster. Again, I cannot PROVE any of this except by logical reasoning .....just more to think about.

What about using a short mirror lens on full frame, especially if wanting to keep the noise down to go to maximum enlargement size?

Does anyone think that VR produces a lag time in taking pictures? Shooting some soccer games with VR on, I ended up turning it off and raised the shutter instead (and ISO) and got closer to the action (where the ball was in flight and still in the frame). Now this was with a Nikon but still wondering if turning on all this in camera and in lens is creating a lag in shooting time?

It shouldn't. The image should be the same as the signal for the JPEG thumbnail going to memory except it is constantly on. If the buffer is not being slowed down, neither is the viewfinder. And there is a possibility that the signal is done as a separate circuit and therefore showing the image no matter what is happening to the buffer.
