Description
Canon 5D Mk IV (Full Frame DSLR)
The default stills camera.
The 5D Mk IV remains the baseline for commercial photography at Kingsize. Reliable, consistent, and widely understood, it’s the camera most shoots can be built around without complication.
For higher resolution or hybrid video workflows, step up to the R5 or R5 C. For pure stills, this is often the better, simpler choice.
