Experience less noise in higher ISO images via a new 20.2 Megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor, with an ISO range of 100–51200; expansion to ISO 409600.20.2 Megapixel Full-Frame CMOS SensorThe EOS-1D X Mark II camera features a Canon-developed 20.2 Megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor that not only helps it record more pixels, but also includes gapless micro lenses for enhanced low-light performance. This results in noise reduction in dark portions of the image even at high ISO speeds, and increased sensitivity that contributes to the EOS-1D X Mark II's high-speed image capture rate, accelerating frame-to-frame performance as well as enabling 4K movies (60p/30p) and improved playback. The new sensor is also Canon's first full- frame sensor to include Dual Pixel CMOS AF for high-speed, precise AF during Live View still and movie recording.ISO Range of 100–51200; Expansion to ISO 409600The EOS-1D X Mark II camera delivers high standard and expanded ISOs, and a score of options to enhance shooting in varied and fast-changing lighting situations. With a standard range of ISO 100–51200, the EOS-1D X Mark II is incredibly sensitive, and thanks to a high signal-to-noise ratio as well as powerful noise reduction, the EOS-1D X Mark II can shoot at expanded sensitivities down to ISO 50 (L) and up to 102400 (H1), 204800 (H2) and even 409600 (H3)! Beyond the obvious advantages of its wide ISO range, the EOS-1D X Mark II has automatic ISO settings, found on the dedicated ISO menu. Minimum and maximum ISO settings can be specified, as can a user-defined range, plus full auto and manual. Improved AF performance through 61-point High Density Reticular AF II system with 41 cross-type points, improved center point focusing sensitivity to -3 EV and compatibility down to f/8.Improved AF PerformanceThe EOS-1D X Mark II camera incorporates a number of significant improvements to help deliver highly precise, reliable AF and AF tracking, both faster and available in more situations. It features a new 61-point High Density Reticular AF II system with 41 cross-type points that expands the AF area approximately 8.6% in the top and bottom of the central AF area, and approximately 24% at the top and bottom of the peripheral frame. A wider subject tracking area improves the AF system so that challenging focus tracking in scenes with sudden changes of speed and subject position is easier than ever. The AF system's low-intensity limit has been improved to EV -3 and all 61 AF points are compatible down to f/8 for excellent low-light performance. The EOS-1D X Mark II's AF algorithm has also been improved: it's equipped with AI Servo AF III+, which remembers the AF path and helps refine precision. Whether choosing individual AF points manually, using the Large Zone AF area or any of the camera's automatic AF selection modes, the EOS-1D X Mark II is designed to exceed users' expectations for high-precision AF.Improved Intelligent Viewfinder with Enhanced Visibility for AF Point DisplayThe EOS-1D X Mark II camera features a new Intelligent Viewfinder II for convenient composition and setting changes without taking an eye off the subject at hand. The camera's viewfinder can show significantly more information in the LCD display and presents AF points in red, increasing visibility in dark locations where AF is typically difficult and in situations where the ambient light makes the AF frame difficult to see. Features like the electronic level, a grid, flicker detection, white balance, metering mode, AF information and more can be glanced at easily without drawing attention away from the subject. Except when using the Canon EF 50mm f/2.5 Macro, EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro, EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM, EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM and EF 28-80mm f/2.8-4L USM lenses. Accurate subject tracking for stills and video with new EOS Intelligent Tracking and Recognition AF with 360,000-pixel metering sensor.The EOS-1D X Mark II camera has an amazingly advanced 360,000-pixel RGB+IR metering sensor and processor that greatly contribute to the camera's impressive AF performance for both stills and video. Thanks to a high resolution and infrared sensitivity combined with a refined detection algorithm, this new sensor improves the color and shape recognition of the EOS-1D X Mark II's iSA (Intelligent Subject Analysis) system, increasing the camera's ability to recognize subjects for faster, more precise AF, metering and exposure compensation. This additional exposure and subject information also helps the EOS-1D X Mark II's iTR (Intelligent Tracking and Recognition) AF system maintain focus on a moving subject with a greater level of consistency. 4K video (4096 x 2160) up to 60 fps (59.94), with an 8.8-Megapixel still frame grab in camera. Full 1080p HD capture up to 120 fps for slow motion.The EOS-1D X Mark II is an incredibly capable camera for moviemaking. Thanks to its Dual DIGIC 6+ Image Processors and its advanced sensor, it can capture huge 4K (Motion JPEG) video at up to 60 fps, recording smoothly to CFast cards. It's the first EOS camera able to record Full HD video at 120 fps, easily displaying minute details imperceptible to the human eye and ideal for slow-motion video capture. With the camera's new touch panel display, AF points can be easily selected while the camera's rolling, and focus can be quickly confirmed with the EOS-1D X Mark II's 4K still frame grab feature, wherein an 8.8-Megapixel still image can be selected for review and saved. Low-light performance is improved as well, with video recording at ISOs of up to 12800 in 4K and 25600 in Full HD. The EOS-1D X Mark II also features uncompressed HDMI output for Full HD videos, helping to facilitate video editing with minimal image degradation. Not to mention, it can also save videos as MP4s for easy playback on mobile devices. Saving a still image from a single movie frame does not result in the same image quality as a normal still image. Dual Pixel CMOS AF & Movie Servo AF for high speed, high frame rate and continuous autofocus during video shooting.With significant improvements in AF operation, the EOS-1D X Mark II camera can be an indispensible and remarkably portable moviemaking tool. Continuous AF, even during 4K recording, is made easy thanks to the EOS-1D X Mark II's Dual Pixel CMOS AF, which is compatible with all Canon EF lenses. Focus points can be selected automatically, or specified on the camera's new touch panel LCD screen. Critical focus throughout the frame can be easily confirmed by enlarging stills grabbed from video recordings. The EOS-1D X Mark II's Movie Servo AF is compatible with all frame rates and resolutions, and can be customized to set tracking sensitivity, AF speed and even Face Tracking priority. These advanced features help make the EOS-1D X Mark II a truly versatile and convenient camera for 4K and Full HD moviemaking. View and control high quality stills and videos via the 3.2-inch touch panel LCD with 1.62 million dots.The EOS-1D X Mark II camera's 3.2-inch touch panel TFT LCD monitor has approximately 1.62 million dots, anti-reflective construction and features Canon's Clear View LCD II technology for bright, sharp display in any number of shooting situations. Its new touchscreen function allows AF point switching and image magnification during Live View shooting and movie shooting, providing convenient operation. The LCD monitor can be ideal for reviewing settings and images, as well as for shooting in Live View mode. In Live View, grid lines can be displayed in 9 sections, 24 sections or 9 sections with diagonals, as well as the dual-axis electronic level, which helps ensure accurate level by displaying both roll and pitch in 1-degree increments. For image review, the EOS-1D X Mark II has a dedicated Magnify/Reduce button. While pressing the button, zooming in or out (up to 10x) is achieved simply by turning the Main Dial. Images can be protected or erased quickly, individually or in batches, and slideshows can be created with some or all images and can be sequenced by date, folders, movies, stills, protection or rating. A feature guide can be accessed for the selected menu, providing detailed reference information when needed. Increased resolution and fine detail, with lens aberration correction and diffraction correction via new in-camera Digital Lens Optimizer technology.To combat any possible image degradation from lens aberration and diffraction, the EOS-1D X Mark II camera is equipped with a number of in-camera optical correction functions for clear and high-quality images. The EOS-1D X Mark II even stores lens aberration data, helping to eliminate the need to register lens data on previously released lenses, and correcting images with virtually no delay in-camera. The EOS-1D X Mark II not only corrects peripheral brightness and chromatic aberration, but also features distortion correction plus diffraction correction, which has been included for the first time in an EOS camera. Distortion correction helps resolve barrel and pincushion distortions, while diffraction correction virtually eliminates the blurring effects from diffraction that can be created when capturing an image at a small aperture. The camera's Dual DIGIC 6+ Image Processors help ensure these corrections can be made with virtually no effect on operational speed. In-camera RAW processing is also made fast and convenient with Canon's Digital Lens Optimizer, helping to improve image quality and giving photographers the ability to work confidently in more complex environments. Built-in GPS provides geotag information including auto time syncing with Universal Time Code via satellites.Providing crucial location and time data, GPS has become an indispensible aspect of the professional workflow, especially for professionals who work on location and capture thousands of images each day. The EOS-1D X Mark II camera has GPS built in, helping photographers and filmmakers not only tag their images with critical location data, but also adjust the time and timestamp on the camera automatically. Thanks to built-in GPS, and Wi-Fi connectivity through the optional Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E8A accessory, the EOS-1D X Mark II can use both GPS and WFT (Wireless File Transfer) together, making it easy to upload a great amount of images both quickly and from increasingly far-flung locales. Offering compatibility with American GPS satellites, Russian GLONASS satellites and Japanese quasi- zenith satellites Michibiki, the EOS-1D X Mark II's GPS information is reliably accurate virtually anywhere you go. In certain countries and regions, the use of GPS may be restricted. Therefore be sure to use GPS in accordance with the laws and regulations of your country or region. Be particularly careful when traveling outside your home country. As a signal is received from GPS satellites, take sufficient measures when using in locations where the use of electronics is regulated. The new optional Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E8A is compatible with IEEE 802.11ac/n/a/g/b, supporting both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi bands.The Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E8A, the EOS-1D X Mark II camera's new optional accessory, provides both a fast throughput for image uploading and several new features that make dynamic wireless photography simple and fast. It has 5 GHz 802.11ac support for high- speed image transfer, a revamped user interface that enables speedy set-up and configuration of wireless networks and even compatible smartphone connection. Accommodating both iOS and Android devices, the Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E8A makes it simple to use a smartphone as a remote control for still and video capture. It can even transfer recorded images back for viewing on the device's screen. The Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E8A is both compact and durable, with excellent dust- and water- resistance for unfettered operation in difficult environments.

  • A New Camera!
I've had it for about 8 hours so far today. If you already have a 1D X it is surprisingly much of the same. The transition from 1D iii to 1D iv and 1D iv to 1D X were truly monumental upgrades especially in terms of polish, but here I feel like the 1DX had everything right and this is just a minor tweak. But it's more than a tweak. I don't own a CFAST card yet, but when I do, I'm certain this camera is going to blow my old 1DX out of the water when it comes to rapid fire sports photography. The raw files appear to be about twice as big as the raws from my 1D X. Shooting at the highest iso settings still renders garbage, but its higher iso than the 1D X and so far all the lower iso stuff seems better (but I've only really investigated the highest iso setting to see what it can do). The battery is new, but the old batteries go into the new body and seem to work just fine. I'm really sad it doesn't have two CF slots. I really liked having two CF slots on the 1D X. Eventually I'm sure I'll be sad it doesn't have dual CFAST slots... I still miss the SD slot of the 1D iv, not because I admit to owning any of those stupid little cards, but because other people did, and I could pop their card into my 1D iv and take their picture for them. The bottom line, of course, is do you really need a $6k full frame camera? The test is simple: if you have a lens that costs more than the camera, then you need the camera. Deep down, that $6k is buying you mostly speed and durability. Fast autofocus, fast shutter clicks, fast card writing. If I go out and take a thousand pictures of a rugby game I'll come home expecting just about a thousand of those pictures to be perfectly in focus no matter what was happening on the field. Update: I'm closing in on having it an entire day now. The menus still have a couple of items that are just baffling to me. The location of settable min/max ISO for instance. Mirror lock up still doesn't have a button, but it is easier to find than when it used to be hidden in a custom function. The polish is looking a little more polished to me. The information you get from pressing the "info" key in particular seems more polished to me. Another Update: I'm starting to think that this new camera does have a lot more polish to it than I thought it just. It's just hidden away more. For instance, my 1D X had a level built in. It was accessed via the LCD on back. I went to use the level today, and this new camera has a four access LCD level indicator hidden inside the viewfinder. It's very nice. I like how quiet and crisp the shutter sounds compared to the older model. I have yet to try it on full auto though. So, a few days into owership, I'm even happier with it than I was when I first got it. ... show more

  • Canon 1dx Markii vs Sony A7sii
So a lot of people looking at this camera are probably wondering just like I was if this or the Sony A7sii was the camera to get. I had the Sony A7sii for a year before I switched to Cannon and the 1dx and absolutely loved it. Personally, I loved the colors on it and new it like the back of my hand, but at the end of the day, the Cannon dx Markii is still king when it comes to video. Pros of Canon 1dx Markii compared to Sony A7sii: Video quality is hands down better ( once you shoot with it you will tell that image is much more detailed) Dual pixel autofocus, it is very amazing and allows me to keep my aperture super low without going out of focus on a subject. Lens choices (but Sony is slowly turning that around) 4k 60 frames - I use this for a lot of my shoots and love it Pros of Sony A7sii Right out of the gate the Sony A7sii is reasonably a lot cheaper and not only with the camera itself but there are other things you have to consider the cards are more expensive especially if you want to shoot 4k 60 you will need a C-fast card and a quality 128GB and cost $500.00 and up. Batteries are more expensive as well and you will also need a Card reader to transfer the footage to your computer. Next weight, now I know a lot of people love a heavier weight because it feels like its holding something solid but you have to think about the equipment you use with your camera. With the 1dx Mark ii you will need a better tripod, also it's a little bit trickier to find the right stabilizer to hold the size of the camera, I recommend the Zhiyun Crane 2 + Gravity plate. Lastly the biggest negative is that there is no in camera stabilization. Just like how people who don't have dual pixel autofocus on their Sony A7sii don't know what they are missing same goes with Canon owners and the internal stabilization. Handheld shots are not as smooth even when you using the trick of using your strap on the back of your neck All in all what I will end with is this if you want the Canon 1dx Markii the quality is there but be prepared to invest more and have to think out how you do things a little bit more then with the Sony. I personally think its worth it and have seen my videos improve majorly but if you want to save some money the Sony A7sii is probably the way to go. I love both cameras a lot and have things that I respect about both. Both will get the job done Also when I walk through the airports with my 1dx mark ii I have never gotten so many compliments in my life about my camera, this never happened with my Sony and it's funny because most of the people who come up to me don't strike me as people who know anything about cameras. I assume they think big camera = good camera. ... show more

  • Impressions from a sport photographer.
I've had mine for about a week. I shoot amateur Mixed Martial Arts, a fast paced sport that happens in bad lighting. For the past 5 years, I have been shooting with the Canon 1dMkIV, which has been a great camera for the purpose. I didn't move to the 1Dx classic, because it just wasn't a big enough step, not with a camera in hand that worked well. The MkII was a bigger step, and I took it. I am not going to repeat all the stats and figures. Those are great and they are all over the internet. I shot an event saturday night, and I have some images to share, if this site shows them accurately. The autofocus is accurate and fast, the color is great, and it works like a charm in the dark, through a chain link fence. These images were shot at ISO 5,000-8,000, 1/500th, f3.2 or f3.5 processed in lightroom, pretty much the same way I always process fight images. There is some noise reduction, but it's not terribly strong. I wasn't making lab test images, these are real production images. This is what a flagship camera does, how it is really used. update: Time has passed, I am still shooting fights with my markII, it's still a fantastic camera. The controls are basically the same as the earlier flagship canon I own, but there are differences. The menus are different and as with any camera, it takes time to learn to get the most out of it. I'm getting there. I have added some new fight images as well as some from a raptor photoshoot. ... show more
