Canon EOS-1D X Review
by Josie on Oct.18, 2011, under New Cameras
The World woke up this morning to news of Canon’s latest flagship professional DSLR: the new Canon EOS-1D X. A full review will follow soon, but in the meantime, here are some of the highlights that this formidable new full-frame DSLR has to offer the discerning pro:
Canon EOS-1D X – key features
- 18.1 MP full frame CMOS sensor
- Up to 12fps and 14fps shooting
- 100-51200 ISO, up to H:204800
- 61 point AF system
- 100,000 pixel RGB AE metering with DIGIC 4
- Full HD 1080p EOS movie
- Dual “DIGIC 5+” processors
- Clear View II 8.11 cm (3.2”) 1040K-dot LCD
- Ethernet port
The new 61-point wide-area AF system looks particularly interesting; I was impressed enough with the EOS-1D Mark IV responsiveness in this respect, so I can’t wait to see how the upgraded system performs.
