Canon Ambassador Frits van Eldik's first impressions of the EOS-1D X

[NatureNTech]

With the lack of 1,3x crop and no focus at f/8 I bet he will be using his older 1D Mark IVs for the F1 grand-prix photos and only use the 1Dx as his tourist camera.

[isaaclimyj]

[fritspas]

Still no eye-control focus?

[riftsin]

waiting for the d4, although this canon is sick!

[boristrap]

[AbdoHad90]

they are good in memorizing what canon told them to do ...

i don't mean the cam is rubbish .. but the ad is like some people lying

[MichaelaFN]

BEAUTIFUL 

[MrTSoprano13]

where can I preorder this camera, its perfect

[rafairobert]

Good news is for people who actually thinking to switch from Canon to Nikon. they can wait a little and buy right stuff (after few years) finally!

[rafairobert]

Everything is great with this camera only two things are bad,

1st: This should be EOS 1d Mark IV and released with this specifications before 3 years

2nd: After showing this video 5 months before you can actually buy this camera in shops NOone will buy any old model of EOS series already sitting in shops which can be problem for Canon resellers. They will sell old models underpriced :(

[fireman949123]

@rafairobert

The only body that will be hard to move is the 1d Mark IV. The 1ds Mark III has been notably unavailable or hard to get for about a year now. Looking at B&H website indicates the 1d Mark IV is also unavailable. I suspect that most places that would actually carry the 1d/1ds series bodies were aware of something great coming and allowed their supply to dwindle.

What I do predict will happen is that most pros will keep one 1ds iii (or 1d iv) and dump the backups on eBay.

Canon 1DX - Ideal for paparazzi filth.

I want one of these, will remortgage and put my gf on the game for 6m to afford one at over £4,000. (or sell a kidney).

[dub3ra]

Even with the 5D mark 3 , and this 1D X, im still so freaking happy with my canon 7D, Even without full frame, I love my canon, shit is bomb as fuck.

[34Muflon]

Need and want is two different things m8..!!! Iwould like it to.. dont have the money for it and dont really need it... But i still would like to have it my bag!

[lenoat702]

1) Walk in to government press conference with new Canon 1D X.

2) Give a narly glare to journalist next to you who is only using a Canon 1D MK 3

3) Important government figure comes out to make a speech.

4) Aim Canon 1D X at important government figures head

5) Forget that 14FPS JPG mode is enabled

6) Fire away

7) Wake up in hospital with 3rd degree Tazer burns and dislocated shoulder

8) Have huge smile on your face knowing that your 1D X was mistaken for a submachine gun

^^^ Priceless :D

[679alienallan]

@lenoat702 ....thats some sick joke man !!!! i can already imagine it....nice one !!

[juaninsuafotos]

IF YOU USE PHOTOSHOP YOU DONT NEED THIS CAMERA. YOU NEED FOTOGRAPHIC LESSONS. THIS CAMERA IS ONLY FOR PEOPLES WHO LOVE TO TAKE PHOTOS. THIS IS NOT A TOY

[Dragon4eva]

@juaninsuafotos wake up, no photographer uses images straight from their camera. They'll still go through photoshop

[Boodhunnilesh]

Imagine buying this and you get mugged !!

[skidgalning]

and i jizzed in my pants.

[SalihKiraci]

i love my canon 7d <3

[Scaryghillies2]

LOL I wish Canon Rebel T2i Mk2

[Fa9ooly323]

@Scaryghillies2 that's called T3i

[juaninsuafotos]

@Fa9ooly323 I know but the problem is when you use a lot of photoshop. I use the basic of PS. creativity has to go through the knowledge of the camera, what you do with it, using your brain. Not much you know using the PS. And I think that is a crime to continue basing your conociemto in PS more than the camera. So I say that photography is a profession in decline

[Fa9ooly323]

@juaninsuafotos I think you mean someone else?!

[juaninsuafotos]

@juaninsuafotos A lot peoples. I am sorry if my englis is bad i use the traslet of google. I seapk a little of English and i don't right really well. Sorry if you don't undertandme

[guidoVX]

Astonishing

[Calincillo51286]

Cool :D

[karlsruheprotestful]

It has an max ISO of 204,800 at H2 setting! This camera is just begging to be reviewed.

[angelisone]

It can not AF in video because mirror moved up into the pentaprism.

Still over heated when using video.

Canon DO NOT want to pay 4.9% tax.

Buy a Sony NEX-VG20.

And you got a real video camera plus a still camera for less than $3,000.00 with lens.

[AlmightyUniden]

No Canon DSLR cameras will overheat if you use a bottom mounted battery pack. You can buy them separately but the 1D X has it built in.

Not only that but the Sony cannot compete quality wise with the 5DMarkII and especially the 1DX

[3rabTube]

Stop and Know that .. it's not about the camera, it's more about the photographer ..

This is A PRO camera, if you just getting started don't even think about it. You won't be able to use the FULL features, therefore you are just wasting you money !!!

[angelisone]

You can buy three Sony A77 Camera Kit and get 36fps AF in still & video while the X can't do.

Saving you over $1,000.00.

[euyoooo]

@angelisone

not that easy !!

but what really frustrates me they never mention anything about AF in video !!

[lovemachine2000]

@angelisone The best Sony doesn't hold jock strap to 5D2，not to mention this magnificent beast.

[roberto94957]

ОТЛИЧНЫЙ!!! Полный кадр...! Надеюсь первая парития будет без косяков в Россию

[ivanteo1973]

Its a professional tool for professional. Like a F-22 for fighter pilots.

[turboyz12]

finally. a camera with GOOD auto focus...

[kukimonsterist]

lol at children of pixels :)

[cyrusa38p]

Where is my one ?

[chuahean95]

Shit!! I just bought a Nikon!!

[karlsruheprotestful]

@chuahean95 Sell it!

[chuahean95]

@karlsruheprotestful But I still need to sell drugs to get this camera haha .

[57blondstrat]

@chuahean95 sell your nikon and buy a real pro camera system, CANON!

[MieszkoPierwszy966]

Can this camera take as well chemtrails ? when the killer planes fly above...?

[Rueffilicious]

only 18 megapixels - are you kidding me??? this is what we have been waiting for - i hope not... there better be a Xs with some kick butt resolution...

[chuahean95]

@Rueffilicious Hi resolution doesn't mean better image quality.

[s3v3ns0rr0w21]

@Rueffilicious why u need so big megapixels..??? u want to print out a billboard...????? even 5 megapixels is enough if you want to print out a poscard size of photo.....when they talk about a DSLR camera, they talk about how fast the frame speed , how big the sensor (full frame, crop siz, aps-c) something like that....megapixels...????? no that important....anymore....

[scinom]

@Rueffilicious why do you want a camera with >20MPS? too high a MP sensor and expect high ISO noise to be quite awful! plus 18.1 is more than enough for anyone unless you are printing some banner for the empire state building or smth

[TheShledge]

@Rueffilicious

Oh god! Only 18! Only enough to make slightly less than fucking massive prints!

[Dune1884]

Give this camera to Kai and Lok c!

[leogadget]

@Dune1884 you forgot the lovely Alamby

[juchuk]

@Dune1884 xD hahahahahaha digital rev!!!!

[realestatemultimedia]

aka it has HD. And I still prefer the mid range. Just seems they put more into them re updated specs. Ok the body might be tougher and frame rate quicker but that is it

[aarondkeogh]

lmao pan and gun down the subject... what a tool. I mean the bloke...

[ucheucheuche]

Wow, weird "first impressions" - more like a commissioned promo advert.

[1986Chaitanya]

lovely camera but out of my range, I will wait for 7D replacement.

[icunow1]

monte carlo! love racing here

[boilerjack]

Go to dpreview-com to read more about it

[akaGk]

why no HD?

[Arcman00]

A monster camera! Congrats Canon!

[dealio82]

price? BTW good video man keep up the good work

[MrBragster]

@dealio82 6800$

[rickjbradbury]

Some many people saying i want one or would buy one if i had the money, very few actually need this kind of camera.

[djmaxnz]

@rickjbradbury paparazzi 

[leogadget]

@rickjbradbury Sure, like very few people actually need a Ferrari. You don't need to be a racer to have one.

[Aragiss]

@rickjbradbury Yeah, people think getting a camera like this makes them a good photographer somehow. But average user doesn't need 12 fps stills and a full frame sensor

[MrKLMFokker]

I want one!!!

(if i had the money:(
