Its funny that even Mark III was not a significant change since 5D Mk II, except better AutoFocusing.

Compare to the great legendary Classic 5D, the 5D Mk II was a giant improvement and leap ahead however seems Canon is happy with they had and only new generation changes are notable for skin change and a tad of facelift.

Canon is number one in marketing and they know what they are doing though I can tell you that in recent years they are pushed to corner by the Nikon's 800 line and Sony's most innovative full frame mirrorless cameras that undoubtingly is the future line for all manufacturers, whether they want to get it now or later...

With the hefty price on new 5D IV, it might as well be the best time to go for a decently used 5DII that is more than 4 - 5 times cheaper and delievers a lot in terms of Full Frame, IQ and then Full High Rez video with little to pay.

Hard for me (A born Canonist) to admit this but then truth is the truth and will speak for itself.
