EOS Bodies / Canon 1DX ITR AF Feature

« on: January 29, 2013, 10:25:37 AM »

Forgive the ignorance but what is the ITR AF feature in the Canon 1DX all about?Is it true that if it is turned on,it slows down the auto-focusing of the camera a bit?And lastly,when is it best to use this feature and when is it better not to use it?
Thanks in advance.

EOS Bodies / Canon 1Dx Problem

« on: January 28, 2013, 01:18:48 AM »

I am having this problem with my Canon 1DX lately.It seems that it cannot turn on.I have to take out the battery first and reinsert it before it works.It seems also that this only happens when I use my 1DX with a the Canon 70-200 F2.8L IS MKII lens.Wi other lenses,it seems to work well.Would anyone know on what is causing this problem?Does it have to do with the connections?
Thanks in advance.

EOS Bodies / Auto_focus Acting Up

« on: January 12, 2013, 01:40:37 AM »

Yesterday,when I tried out my 1DX,there were times when the auto=focusing had a hard time working or not working  at all.A few times,I have to press the shuttet button(Both Vertical and Horizontal)harder to take a shot and there would be a few times when it wouldn't work.This is the first time that it has happened.By the way,this doesn't happen most of the time.Like I said,it was only the first time this has happened.It only happens about 5% to 10% of the time since yesterdayWould anyone out there know on what is happening.Is there anything wrong with the lens contact of the cameraOr,is there something wrong with the shutter release of my camera?You see,I tried out different lenses and still get the same problem.
Thanks.

EOS Bodies / Canon 1D MKIV VS 1DX Cameras

« on: August 20, 2012, 08:38:38 AM »

At the moment,I own a 1D MKIV and I am tempted and debating of upgrading to to the 1DX camera.Anyway,if I mainly shoot sports,would it be worth it to upgrade from the Canon 1D MKIV to the 1DX?Would I miss the reach factor a lot of 1D MKIV if I switched to the 1DX?How much bettter is the IQ of 1DX than that of the 1D MKIV and is there a big difference?I heard that the AF of 1DX is better than the 1D MKIV in low light shooting.How about in brighter light,how do both cameras AF and IQ compare to each other?And lastly,In what other areas is the 1DX better than the 1D MKIV?
Thanks a in advance.
