I come across this test report which I think the way they test is a bit diff, the tester tend to ‘move forward’ in order to match the end results which is 1.3x comparing full frame.
personally I found both are equally able to give stunning pictures, I like the way this report show the test results as well as good info on both machines.
It’s amazing how similar the renderings are from both cameras. You’ll note both cameras put a priority on preserving shadow detail, while forgetting about highlight areas. In reality the actual scene was quite dark, I personally wasn’t able to see detail in the rear of this structure, nor make out any of the actual colors. One other point, the Canon EOS 1D Mark IV had not trouble focusing in here, while the 5D2, shortly after taking it’s pictures, was no longer able to find focus.
The problem is nowmalaysia market seems have no stocks for this mk4. Wonder when canon will only really bring in them to the shelf.
