Has anyone used the 5dIV For sports photography? I have a 7dII with 100-400II lens. B&H has the 5d on sale for $1999 and it is a good deal to get a FF. I shoot college lacrosse and baseball for fun. Post on social media, team pages, do some prints for end of year banquets.
How is the 5d IQ compared to the 7D? I know the 5 is 3 frames per second slower, how big of a difference does that really relate to as far as “keepers” are concerned?
I usually get a media access sideline pass so I do t think the reach of the crop would be that big of a difference.
Thanks in advance for everyone’s input.

OK, Can you do what I did in the above example in LR?
No you cannot. But if you choose not too your photo on the bottom is still finished. Just not ready to be sold as a stock photo, or album cover or some other project.

I see lots of very wide angle lenses suggested and they are fine.
The more "All around lens" though is the 24-105mm L.
It is wide enough on the 7D MII but also works for many other situations.
If you want to add a very wide lens the 10-18mm is most excellent, very sharp and best of all quite expensive.
I have both for my 7D (As well as the 100-400mm MII) and find the 24-105 the best all around lens on the camera all the time.
I am sure you do more than tail gate and the 24-105mm L does it all and will do wonderfully for tail gating and those shots after the game. Again it will be the most used of the lenses where a WA only lens will see limited use in comparison as an all around lens.

Thank you. That’s what I was looking for. I have the 100-400 for the sidelines and was looking for something for walking around/everyday use. Thanks
Group shots. Candids of kids with parents. Tents, flags, setup and layout of food.
I have a 7dmII and the canon 100-400 II
I take mainly college lacrosse photos. I need a second lens for tailgate and post game pics. Something less intrusive and more wide angle I guess.
Would like to only stick to the 100-400 and one other lens.
Any suggestions would be great.
I believe the Walmart warranty a) goes into effect after the Canon warranty b) covers accidental damage including drops, spills, water and other damages
Yes. It makes the not professional. I can be a scratch golfer, give swing tips to others but I am not a professional.
When someone asks “what do you do for a living?” Can you say I am a photographer?
