Canon eos 5d mark iv vs canon eos 1d x mark ii?

Both are full frame DSLRs from 2016 that take Canon EF lenses, and neither has stabilisation in the body. The main difference is resolution. The Canon EOS 5D Mark IV has 30.4 megapixels to the Canon EOS-1D X Mark II's 20.2, so the 5D IV leaves more room for cropping and bigger prints. It's also a workhorse and a good used buy if you already own EF lenses, which is my pick for most people.

These lenses suit either body:

• Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM for everyday and walkaround shooting
• Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS III USM for sport, events and portraits
• Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L II USM for low light and natural-looking street shots

Tell me what you like to shoot and I'll narrow it down.
