1DX sample RAW images

[mrmarks]

Hi, are there samples of RAW images from the 1DX available for download anywhere? Thanks

Not yet.

Is this typical for a 1 series body?

I'm still in line for the 1D X, and have faith that it'll be good (counting on the fact that it's not just us, but also Canon that would like to avoid a 1D III-kind of fiasco).

But isn't it weird to be a month away from release (supposedly) and still not have any idea how the RAW output is? Canon must have started production for the release, so it's not like they can change things now.

Do they expect pros to buy on faith too? I've had good luck with Canon gear so far, but people need some reassurance, right?

These are jpegs, not RAW

Canon usually don't show any raws until the camera is days away from release. This is so that they can get the firmware finished and locked. There will be plenty of raws flying about once the camera is released and in photographer's hands. Canon have really been able to supply the demand for the 5DIII, so I'm guessing the 1Dx will be the same. Plenty of cameras on the shop shelves on release day.

There you go - http://www.davidcheok.com/storage/EOS1dXRAW.zip
The zip contains RAWs at 3200, 6400 and 12800 ISO.

Please create a mirror as original photog's site may slow down.

But question is, is support available for 1DX raw files?

Cu,

Yes I can open them with the Adobe 6.7 Beta

Here is the 0053 (ISO 3200) developed in LR with my corrections. It's cropped (4154x3138) to meet 10mb file limit of imgur. Jpeg quality is max. Select this link for the best view http://i.imgur.com/8Kvrl.jpg

Here is the hood ornament at 300%

This is very interesting... I didn't compare them to the 5DIII images but they are definitively better looking than my 1DII images @ 3200, 5400 and 12k+

I'm back again I put the wrong file in my comparison...

OK I've just processed a 5d2, 5d3 and 1dx raw file at ISO6400. They were all downscaled to 13mp and processed in ACR with identical settings..:

 

[PhilDrinkwater]

I'd say it was a hard call between the 1dx and the 5d3. If there's a big difference, I don't see it, so it's less than 1/2 stop. However, they're different scenes so it's hard to be sure.

I would say the 1dx ISO6400 files looks around what I'm used to with the 5d2 at ISO3200...

Yep same here.
However I see NO banding with the 100% Fill light slider.

Interesting. Actually, when looking at the shadows they do look cleaner than the 5d3 at the same ISO...

 

[PhilDrinkwater]

Push the shadows (fill light) on the ISO3200 shot and see how well it handles that... WOW!

I just did the same on my 5d2 at ISO3200 and I had to go back and check I'd not done something stupid the result is that different... in fact I'm still not sure I haven't done something stupid!

Yep noticed that to.
There is for sure a difference in the sensor between the 5d iii and the 1dx.

Nice..

Hard to say for sure 'cos they're different scenes, but I'd tend to agree. How much of a difference I wouldn't like to guess.

It's a HUGE improvement compared with the 5d2 at 3200 though. The look of the 5d2 just dies as soon as you try to push the shadows. On the 1dx ISO3200 shot you hardly notice it when you push even 100% shadow light in. Incredible!
