Capturing surf action with the Canon EOS-1D X Mark III

[Jim Corbett]

I almost wonder if it sounds quieter (I heard it sound quieter in other videos too) because it is doing so many frames consecutively that the ear perceives it as just continuous.

Agreed about the fast mode - it (perceivably) sounds more evened out, but it's the lower speeds too.

a Long time ago Cinema was using 20fps for sometime to film movies. Imagine that with 1000+ buffer you can shoot 1min clips more or less with 14bit raw 20mpix images from this monster. I can't even imagine the latitude you gain and the flexibility in post production. Ofc a short film like this would cost a shutter for sure...! and again its cheaper than film lol!

but, but, need more reach for me birds

I know as a birder, it is obviously still a trade-off between speed and resolution. In fact, I'd love to see such a camera with a 30 MP sensor and a crop mode for extreme speed-up. This would be a great move by Canon...

I saw a couple of people to mention in their reviews about raw capabilities of 1dx III that it shoots 422 in raw recording. 422 is for the 10bit codec. Raw recording is 444... isn't it right?
