Canon 1DX video overview and links to other reviews

[MarkWebbPhoto]

I have been browsing around for more 1DX samples just to get an idea of what to expect with high ISO settings and dynamic range but I'm rather disappointed with the number of people who have claimed to have received the 1DX and haven't posted a single photo. Yeah I know you have your fancy new toy and are probably busy playing with it but when you get the time, remember those of us who are still waiting for our bodies and post a shot to show how well it handles skin tones and such.

While browsing Google I found a youtube video from Borrowlenses.com which gives a decent overview of the 1DX. They even do some comparisons with the 5D3 at high ISOs which was nice of them. Some AI Servo tracking comparisons would be killer if anyone out there has both cameras.

Focus On Canon EOS 1D X

Here are some other reviews and previews I have found. They aren't very in-depth, nor do they have a ton of samples (if any) but it's all we have for the moment.

re: Jeff Cable review (why no samples?)

If you browse his images you can see lots of samples such as this one at 4,000ISO:

Sorry, I'm busy shooting 3 weddings a week

As soon as I get a minute, I'll be posting some examples.

But it's awesome. Trust me.
