Call it a venerable camera, call it the legendary Canon EOS 5D Mark II (released in 2008), call it whatever you want but do not forget that this camera has almost 2.3 million shutter actuations. Not bad, eh?

User FoxTailWhipz posted a video on YouTube where he presents this truly venerable piece of gear. He says:

Make sure to watch until the end for some crazy statistics! Have you ever seen a camera with this high of a shutter count??

Enjoy the video.

Anyone here with a Canon camera that has more shutter actuations? Let me know and I might post about it.

Canon EOS 5D Mark IV Last Of Its Kind, No EOS 5D Mark V?

Eos 5d Mark V
View Post

A few days ago we got a rumor suggesting the Canon EOS 90D and EOS 7D Mark II will not get a replacement. It seems we might see no Canon EOS 5D Mark V either.

A new and rather confident rumor suggests Canon will not release a 5D Mark V to replace the 5D Mark IV. The source of the rumor says Canon already stopped the development of the 5D Mark V some time ago. The source also claims that the EOS 5D lineup will not live on as a mirrorless version. Wasn’t the EOS R5 intended as a mirrorless EOS 5D series equivalent?

While we are somewhat inclined to believe Canon will not replace the EOS 90D and 7D II, we have a harder time with the EOS 5D Mark IV. This is a highly popular camera among professional photographers, and they are notoriously less fond of mirrorless technology than your average camera user. The EOS 5D Mark IV was announced almost 4 years ago and would be ready for a replacement. Less than a year ago there was a rumor suggesting the 5D V was on “Canon’s roadmap”.

So, no Canon EOS 5D Mark V?
