This is basically a 1D X camera with 4K video.

If you read the comments below the video, it seems that it is not only me who thinks that Canon is bringing unfinished
products to the market...
Westfall says, you get better light sensitivity in comparison to the brand new 5D Mark III, because it is 18MP instead of 22.
I say, they should have done a much better job with 5D Mk III...
You are expected to pay $10000 for a camera that does not even have features such as focusing aids or zebras.
(Features which can be added to 5D Mark II with the free Magic Lantern firmware add-on).
I think the moral of the story is: do not buy anything this year! _________________ Νίκος • www.diafragma.gr
