Canon EOS 5Ds
The Canon EOS 5Ds is a full-frame digital SLR introduced in 2015, built around a 50.6-megapixel CMOS sensor and Canon's EF lens mount. It was positioned as a high-resolution studio and landscape body, sitting alongside the lower-resolution 5D Mark III rather than replacing it.
Sales data is thin, but a recent UK auction hammer result in November 2025 saw a 5Ds body sell for £400 — a wholesale saleroom level rather than a retail asking price. As of 2026 that single data point suggests clean working bodies are worth around the £400 mark at auction, though dealer-listed examples typically sell for more, and condition, shutter count and the inclusion of charger and battery materially affect what a 5Ds sells for.
Sales History
Prices shown are realised prices — auction results and completed eBay sales, never asking prices. Most saleroom figures are hammer prices, before commission; some houses publish a premium-inclusive figure, and we do not adjust for condition. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Canon EOS 5Ds worth in 2026?
Based on a UK auction hammer result from late 2025, a 5Ds body is worth around £400 at saleroom level, with retail prices typically higher.
How much does a Canon EOS 5Ds sell for at UK auction?
The most recent recorded hammer price is £400 for a body, though sample size is very small and condition has a strong effect on value.
Is the Canon EOS 5Ds the same as the 5Ds R?
No — the 5Ds R is a parallel variant with the optical low-pass filter effect cancelled, and it usually sells for slightly more than the standard 5Ds.
