    As with the 5D Mark III, the Mark IV is well suited for those shooting weddings or portraits, and will also make nature and landscape shooters very happy as well. The introduction of 4K video will also appeal strongly to videographers and filmmakers and anyone else who prefers a DSLR to shoot video with.
