Announcing The Canon EOS-1D X Mark II
- Thread starter Canon Rumors
- Start date
And don't forget those non-selectable AF points...... Why doesn't the 1DX2 have some non-selectable AF points? We should demand that Canon gets their act in gear......frankchn said:

What does awesomeness at ISO100 look like? That's one are I've never been unhappy with, unless you mean DR, but you made that a separate bullet.tpatana said:

As a 5D3 owner, I have to admit that the thought has crossed my mind...but rather than replacing the 5D3, it's the 7D2 I'm thinking of...(in other words, is the improved AF, IQ and high ISO worth the loss of reach and high price?) In particular, the "all AF points active at f/8" caught my attention...

Its 9am Tuesday is Sydney... So if the invite rumors are correct, we gotta be getting close to simultaneous worldwide announcement

Re: Diffraction Correction - huh?
having used DLO extensively since it's came out, it does an amazing job at correcting aberrations (far more than the usual CA corrections).
the fact that it *MAY* perform as much correction as possible on extender combinations in the raw file itself in camera, could be a major win.

I would love to have a good excuse to own one - anybody want to hire me to shoot the Superbowl? ;D

That made my photographic day.
In other news, I am laughing at all the turds who are calling this camera a failure because it doesn't have a link to the ISS or come with valet parking.
I truly think those that bash so strong and vocally at this point in time are just grumpy they can't afford one, but then that will just open up a floodgate of whining proof of said complainers supposed wealth.
It's not for me, I can neither afford one nor need one as my 5D3 is more than enough camera for me, just pass the popcorn please.

Maybe you will get a call for the Olympics in Rio?I have two travel doc-u style jobs coming up this summer. I honestly can't think of a better camera, that will allow me to shoot both photo and video in one system. Not to mention it will allow me to pack light... fitting all my gear in a bag I can throw on my back. I'm sold.

Wow not even a peep about improved dynamic range or on sensor ADC or anything.
Now sure, 5D4 may be different but....
One could also imagine they are so much in face saving mode they won't even admit vastly improved DR even if it is there, but that is probably just wishful thinking.
Interesting that every single recent rumor about it came true.... except for the improved DR!!!! Yeesh. (and well I guess that 65pt f/8 everything guy was just making it all up)
Looks like an old 5D3 paired with various new Sony bodies as they come out is the mix it will be going forward (or maybe all replaced by Nikon if they get it all right and so right with D820 that I can forget about Canon lenses), not a bad mix although having it all in DSLR form would be nicer, especially in Canon DSLR form, but hey they just don't seem to want to bother so thanks be to Sony for existing.

I dont know how canon measures that figure, but in viewfinder mode, I've cracked off 7-10 times that many shots on a single 1DX battery over the span of 48 hours. Most of which were high speed rapid fire at 12FPS. And I imagine this battery is similar to LPE6N which is the same size and the E6 but more juicedilbert said:

Its a unintentional leak by a photo store that jumped the gun on what is likely tonight or tomorrows announcement (depending on where you live). I expect to see it tomorrow. The original announcement was pulled down, but it was also copied first. Canon punishes those who violate their NDR's, so I'd not want to be in their shoes.

BS
it's not measurebators who care, who gives a about a lab result if it doesn't matter, it's people who actually don't dwell only in forums who do care, because it actually can affect results in the real world.
and they haven't bothered to improve it for ANY market segment of theirs so it's BS that they would have fixed it if people cared, since in some segments there have been lots of howls about it and they haven't budged there for a decade either
