EOS Bodies - For Stills / Re: EOS-1D X Firmware 1.2.1 in the Wild

« on: January 22, 2013, 01:00:24 AM »

I got mine today from Canon Australia being serviced with the updated v1.2.1 firmware. I still have the CPS loan 1dx with 1.1.1 on it. I spent some time going through the menu items and it looks like no new menu items have been added.

Unfortunately no new frame rates for video. (displays 1920: 25/24, 1280:50, 640:25.)

So I can't see any difference yet. Haven't shot with it since I got it back this morning. I doubt I will notice a difference. Ill talk to CPS tomorrow and see if they know anything.

Lenses / Re: Canon EF 24-70 f/2.8L II Arrived

« on: September 16, 2012, 10:46:42 PM »

Had my 24-70II on friday. Used it for a few shoots.
Hoping to test it against the v1 and also pit against my 24L and 85L sometime.

First impressions is its really nice. Controls flare well, and is sharp. Not quite as sharp ast my 85L (by which all my lenses are now measured) but its pretty damn good.

Attached is a 100% zoom from a quick unedited photo I took on saturday.
Settings on photo.
