  • 5D Mark 4 on video 4K

    Posted by Carlo Ferraro on October 6, 2016 at 4:52 am

    Got finally my 5D4, starting to do some trials.
    The 17-40 mm is equivalent to the 10-22 mm on the 70D……on photo.
    When I switch to video 4Kp25, then the 17 mm in photo is equivalent to a 28mm in video. It is if I’d put the 17-40 on an APS-C camera, a 1.6 zoom factor.
    Is this right or I have done something wrong on the settings?

    It was pretty well covered that the 5D Mark IV was not full frame in 4K.

    Well, I missed that but the likelihood of using EF lenses and price is a must. In the end it is not not a real problem for me shooting wildlife, just need a wider lens for occasional use. Image is great and filing as AppleProres does not increase the size of the files that much.
    Thanks

    Apple ProRes uses MotionJPEG as its base, so unless you’re running into compatibility problems with, say, and older version of Final Cut, you shouldn’t have to transcode.
