The EOS 1. DX is Canon's top and only professional DSLR today, their ultimate . They've chosen to put everything they can into this one model, instead of making us choose between speed or quality as does Nikon with multiple models. This Canon 1. DX replaces both the EOS- 1. Ds Mark III and EOS- 1. D Mark IV at the same time. Consumer cameras usually have disjointed slots with two different kinds of cards, and the Nikon D4 has only one card slot, with a relatively useless XQD slot for its second card.
Bravo, Canon! The choice is clear in Canon: if you're a full- time sports, news, outdoors or action pro, the 1. D X is your camera.
No longer do we have to go 1. Ds for image quality or 1. D Mark IV for speed; the 1. D X beats them both. Thank goodness, the 1. For casual use the 1.
D X offers little to nothing over the 5. DS or 5. D Mark III; the reason pros demand the 1. Change To Dvorak Keyboard Windows 10. D X over the 5. D series are simple. While the 5. D Mark III has slightly better ultimate image quality if you work with things that don't move under nice sunny skies all day, as soon as things start to move you need the speed of the 1. D X, and as soon as it starts to rain, blow or snow, the 1. D X gets going while the 5. D Mark III needs to get put away from the rain or sand.
For sports and action, 1. FPS is critical, because with any sort of sports or action, every one of those 1. The 1. D X gets this speed both from big motors powered by a big battery, as well as a lot of on- board computers to crunch more data more quickly than consumer cameras like the 5. D series. The 1. D X also has an easy voice note recorder, while Canon's consumer DSLRs don't. The 1. D X is built tough out of all metal, while the consumer 5.
D series has plenty of plastic, especially on their flimsy mode dials. The AF- tracking system of the 1. D X is far superior to the 5. D Mark III because it sees in color and motion, so it can track subjects around the frame far, far better than the sloppy tracking of the 5. D Mark III. If you're not tracking things around the finder, the two AF systems are oddly the same. One letdown about the 1. D X finder is that it downgraded to the same consumer- quality LCD- based AF sensor display that can hide subjects behind gray boxes, instead of the superior professional additive- LED display of the earlier 1.
D models. Buyer beware. The 1. D X has a superb LCD, big, bright, accurate, smooth and sharp. Oddly, it lacks auto brightness control. The 1. D X can correct lens color fringes as well as peripheral light falloff, so long as I have an appropriate lens profile loaded. Front, Canon 1. D X.

LEICA and Nikon can do this to let you see the histogram of just a small region. Can't shift auto- selected slowest shutter speeds in Auto ISO New and good is that the 1. D X can be set to pick these speeds depending on focal length, but unlike in Nikon, we can't tell it automatically to shift these up or down a stop or two from the usual 1/focal length speed. Still No Automatic Folder Creation Every Canon Power. Shot point- and- shoot can be set to start a new, dated folder for each day of shooting, but no Canon DSLR is this smart yet.
No Built- in GPSThank goodness. No Highlight AND Shadow optimization While all Nikons and the 5. D Mark II can optimize both highlights and shadows at the same time, the 1. D X no longer can do this. You can select Highlight Tone Priority (highlights) or Automatic Lighting Optimizer (shadows), but they cannot be selected at the same time any more. Specifications top.

The 2. 1 focusing points in the central area are standard precision cross- type and effective with maximum apertures as small as f/5. The center five points are also high- precision diagonal cross- type points for maximum apertures as small as f/2.
All 6. 1 points are sensitive to horizontal contrast with maximum apertures as small as f/5. The 5. D Mark III has what seems to be the same or better 6. Rated to work from LV - 2 ~ 1.

Oct 2. 01. 2: AF Point Illumination During AI Servo AFThe new firmware allows AF points in the EOS- 1. D X’s viewfinder to be illuminated in red when the shutter button is pressed halfway during AI Servo AF, for easy viewing of the selected point. To preserve exposure- metering accuracy, illumination is intermittent. Three choices are available: Off, On (Normal) and On (Brighter). Cross- Type AF Support at f/8. The EOS- 1. D X has up to 4.
AF points depending on the lens in use. Cross- type AF on the EOS- 1. D X has been limited to EF lenses and lens/extender combinations with a maximum aperture of f/5.
The new firmware allows cross- type autofocusing with the center AF point even when the maximum aperture of a Canon EF lens/extender combination becomes as small as f/8. If AF point expansion is selected with an f/8 maximum aperture lens/extender combination, the four AF points surrounding the center point will act as AF Assist points.
This option effectively expands the size of the AF detection area to enhance autofocus performance with subjects that are small in the frame and difficult to track, such as small animals and birds in flight. AF points above and below the center will be sensitive to vertical contrast, while points to the left and right will be sensitive to horizontal contrast.
