I have had a similar problem, same spec as you and recently very slow to boot and then the spinning wheel, driving me mad.
I have a WD 4 TB external drive which was always connected. So started to use Mac without WD drive connected except when using for storing images etc, purged cache in LR and PS. Great improvement, therefore it was WD drive slowing everything down.
The other thing I have stopped doing is shutting the system down when finished, just put it to sleep. (apparently the system does lots of work when asleep?)
Now my Mac starts up immediately I touch the keyboard, works fast when not connected to WD drive and even when connected using LR and PS is still fast.
So I will investigate a fast external drive and hopefully back to almost new.

Hope this helps

Hi, I have used MPB on many occasions in the UK for selling kit.
Excellent company to deal with, fair prices (better than Ebay) and prompt payment.
Hope this helps.

Good luck

Try researching “The Wild Atlantic Way” it’s the route most people follow for photography.
Just pop it into a search engine and you will get lots of information.
Excellent time to visit as flowers will be coming into bloom
Have a fabulous trip.
Hope this helps.

Nobody has mentioned Jerome, a defunct mining town much like Bisbee (which certainly is cool) but is not nearly as far from Sedona - that would be a better place to check out given your plans.


Yes....I would definitely do Jerome from Sedona, Only been the once but would definitely do it again if I am fortunate enough to be in the area. Good luck, sounds like a great trip.........Need to get my Passport out again as based in UK.

Looks like a nice piece of equipment, the only concern I have is the single card slot, if you shoot weddings that its recommended to shoot on two cards...just in case a card goes down.
Looking forward to your review.

Just love Key West, great fun place... I would agree with Kmgw9V, I normally have my 16-35 fitted to my kit when there.

Agree with Low Budget Dave above, if not effecting the image, ignore it.

I have purchased Grey market 5Dmk 4 in the UK, get 3 year warranty with the camera. Lots of people by Grey market equipment in the UK from the same company with excellent service from the outset.
It also help that on my 5Dmk4 I also save around £1100.0 (around $1300.00 US).
