Amazing review! Wow! Bravo!

I own a 1DX MK II and I got it almost exactly a year ago. I actually just wanted to watch the first minute of the Video, because there are plenty of reviews on KZfaq about it. Yet, almost 20mins later I finished the Video and I am stunned. This is probably one of the most interesting and well made Camera Reviews I have seen to Date! Inspirational! Thank you Sir!

This is not just a review but a cinematic masterpiece 👌👌🤙

This is the best camera review I have seen on KZfaq! Amazing work

The worst part of the camera is that YOU HAVE 250 SUBS. Instead of 2.5million subs!!!! Great content bro!

I watch a lot of camera reviews - this is one of the best I've ever seen. It seems more Philip Bloom than Philip Bloom himself

Finally a proper review that does not start with a guy telling me about what kinda of coffee he hates... thank you!

A cinematic beauty! A masterpiece of brevity, smarts, depth, and thoroughness. A culturally relevant short film made for an iconic camera: brilliant! Bravo to you sir.

I'm a bit late to the party however I've just bought a 1dx mk ii now! I was used to using the 80D for video beforehand! However your points in both pros and cons I completely agree with! You covered so many valid points and opened my eyes to some points I've not previously thought of! I'm struggling to believe how your channel is not larger cause your content is great!

This video was created with pure talent and knowledge. Masterpiece that cant be duplicated. Just perfection. Well done.

a great in-depth review... I have owned 3 1dx mark 2 cameras since the past 8 years now... and I have never failed to stop loving it for the only reason that I love Canon's Color science and how it never fails to deliver what I ever desired to get in my output. Straight out of the box, it creates wonders... Canon has never disappointed me... Thanks to your video as well which makes me believe it even more 🙂

Thought I came for a basic review, I left with an awesome video that has sold me on the 1DX Mark 2. Time to save up. Ha ha ha!

This review is just way to insane for this platform. A cinematographic masterpiece!

One of the best reviews on youtube. Thorough explanation with well timed examples, rather than 1 hour of a person sitting there and giving an opinion with no evidence.

1DXII owner as well. Crazy that I sat through the entire video anyways! Great video. Very in depth and well executed. Addresses everything that bothers me about this camera.

Dude, you're reviews are so chill and easy to follow...Most reviews last for 5 min and only give you are spec rundown. Good Work!

This is the best 1DXii video on KZfaq, both the content, but equally production, fabulous, thanks for sharing.

I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned it, but I find it extremely satisfying how your eyes never seemed to frantically flicker back and forth between the actual shot and a "non-existing" script in the background, as so many other reviewers seem to do quite frequently. Absolutely outstanding and beautiful review, the 1DX MKII is definitely showing its age nowadays and it sadly makes me want to wait for the MKIII or 5D MKV.

2.59k subscribers what a shame absolutely shame. one of the best youtubers of all time. the best review I have seen by any category

Not sure why you only had 403 Subscribers (Now 404) but 5 minutes in and couldn't stop watching this review. Terrific job...

OMG you are the best camera reviewer I have ever seen I hope you make more and gain subscribers!!!!

I am touched by your honesty

Whatttt 400sub?? This is a masterpiece.. love this!! You deserved millions of subscribers

I've owned it for two years now and I just watched this for the first time. You just made me fall in love with my camera again.

finally, a review that isn't by some jumped up hyper child that is more concerned with themselves than the actual review. Hats of to you sir! A tremendous cinematic review. Top Marks!

More amazing than the review is the mans voice+ music choice. Wow

this is problably the best review of the 1dxii that i ever saw. Congrats for this amazing video! you should do more

This is the Best Review in KZfaq .

Hey Cam, thanks for a brilliant review mate - my main stills camera took a rather hard fall last week and I have been shopping for a replacement. I have been thinking the EOS-R will be a better fit for my hybrid style and to intercut with my C100s but it took your review to take a second hand 1DXMII off the table. Cheers!

Absolutely brilliant presentation. So well done! (Yes. I came back to watch it all over again 🙂)

Brilliantly made video. So to the point, no fuss.

This is one of the best reviews i have ever seen on KZfaq. Your shots are also amazing. Keep going !

Nicely done, no idea where you came from but youtube has recommended this to me (not in the market for - or googling any canon gear these days) I watched the whole thing, which, i think you know is a high-five to you and what you made. Who knows, if you ever get into gear reviews, this channel could Bloom..

Incredible video!, The best camera review I have ever seen!. You should make reviews and tutorials, you're channel will blow up!.

Come back to KZfaq please. Hope all is well

Great edit and a music chosen. I'm deeply thinking about GREATEST life questions that touch me instead of focusing on specs!!! Well done...!!!

Very informative. With accompanying music. Not too loud, not too soft and not annoying RAP music. Which it seems has to accompany videos these days. Thank You.

I got the camera I bought it brand-newJust curious I watch this review after using the camera nearly a year this is one of the best reviews ever I have ever Watched thank you bro

one of my favorite review vids about this camera. thanks for making this

I have bought the 1dxii in 2019 it's an amazing machine for years!

You, sir, are the master of organization ♡

excellent video and a lot of good info, i wait for mark iii version with c log and better bit rate output

This is a well made in-depth review! It covered quite a few things I was wondering about and things I had not considered. Thank you!

Man this is friggin great. So clean, crazy helpful, and very much you.

Awesome review. I have used the 1dx for just over a week. I like it a lot and I appreciate your insights.

Your reviews are sick. Just subscribed

How in the actual fuck don’t you have more subscribers! Keep it up man this is the BEST review I’ve ever seen; most reviews I find are super boring. This was a great one!

excellent video and a lot of info, good review, i will wait for markiii version with better bit rate and c log

Yes, agree - mostly. I've been shooting with this camera for a few years now. While some might call the 4k "soft," I prefer it to other DSLR/Mirrorless 4k video which is "sharper" but distinctly more "video like." The 1dx2 4k is quite cinematic in my opinion and, as you mention, can take a fair bit of pushing around in post. The 1080p, as far as I'm concerned, is the biggest drawback of this camera. It's really awful. I sometimes output to a ninja 2 if someone really wants to acquire in HD, but the files are still nothing more than acceptable. In all this time the Canon 1dx2 hasn't skipped a beat. It's got to be one of the most reliable and solid cameras out there. (Touch wood.) And it shoots really nice stills as well! I recently also acquired a Fuji X-T3. The 4k files are also really nice, sharper, but not too video like. It's been quite a learning curve for me to handle such a small camera. Everything's there - but significantly downsized. It feels more like a toy compared to the Canon. However, as I get used to it, the Fuji will be my choice for a quick "run and gun." And, while newer single-handed gimbals are able to handle the weight of the 1dx2, the package gets heavy, VERY heavy - for me anyway. With the Fuji, it's a breeze. I think the biggest downside of all these hybrid cameras are their codecs (this seems to be improving though) and their lack of dynamic range. But this is to be expected as they are essentially stills cameras. Again, in my opinion, one can only appreciate how important dynamic range is after you shoot with a dedicated cinema camera. Thanks for a great post!

The better camera review I have ever watched, definitely. Congratulations dude.

Thats the first full 20 minute video i sat through without jumping forward in along time 👏👏👏 well done and thank you! Subbed

Well done. I love the camera and look forward to buying it as a second camera. I have a 1DX that I use primarily for stills.. and will continue to do so.. and will use the Mark II as the Video camera. The Mark III looks and is incredible.. but it will also push down the price of the Mark II

Definitely a nice video. As a Canon shooter, I was one considering this camera. However, honestly, it’s outdated. But it’s interesting to see, how much effort Canon puts into sponsoring videos with the intention to keep their products alive (i.e. to refinance them). I am looking forward to seeing a pro mirrorless body finally.

I’m your 500th subscriber!! Much love from Vancouver Canada 🇨🇦😍🤠💯

Refreshing review. I've been in the habit of setting videos to 1.5 speed & skipping through parts, for the sake of time. However, it felt right to slow down to listen in without any modification. Calming tone and great information. Thanks.

Masterful, thank you for this.

Your review is probably the best one out there. I’m watching it after having pre ordered a Mark III. And almost everything you mention as a con in this camera that needs fixing is a Check for Mark III. Now I’m even more excited about it hehe. Looking forward to your MIII review.

Love this video of yours dude, from content to it's quality 💯

Thanks for answering all my questions!! I currently own a 5D Mark IV for making youtube videos, and of course stills. I can see that your experience with the 1DX is similar to my experience with the latest 5D. Pretty good, but sometimes I am a bit choked by the performance, given where this camera is supposed to compete. How is it that not even their flagship camera is gripe-free? I'm a bit surprised actually. I don't have much an issue with the large file sizes, which seems to be a big pain point for some, but the 17:9 aspect in 4K is a bit annoying since it makes it one extra step to mix footage. It's odd to me that in a camera that is designed in a way that would make you want to use the different frame rates and resolutions, that they punish you a little for doing so. I watched your video out of lust for more from my Mark IV, yet it seems not even spending double my previous investment would solve my issues anyways. Three extra thousand bucks for 120 frames in a Canon? I may as well just buy a Sony.... sadly.

This review just saved me $5500. You rock.

I’ve had mine now for 3yrs ,still learning how to get the best results.

Great review of this camera

This is a great review man... I really enjoyed it from start to finish. You thinking of getting the 1DX3 when it comes out next year or will you keep the mark II?

Probably the best camera review on youtube 👏🏻

How did learn to colour grade? It looks beautiful!

I own this camera and your review is truly excellent. Thank you.

Spot on with the crazy expensive wifi adapter and the setup every time to use it is a huge pain, totally agree. Canon could easily update the firmware to fix so many issues.

It`s like fairy tail in terms of sound and like a real movie in terms of picture, best review i ever seen, bravo !

Awesome review dude, really nicely shot too. appreciate the effort you put into this man it came out great.

You did a really top job with this review and put me off buying the 1D X II. I think i’ll wait for the successor. Cheers

This is the best camera review I've seen. Great job.

after watching this I was surprised u didnt have 400k subs or something

Just about to get a second hand 1dx II and this is just a superb video!

Great review. You mention some other alternatives at the end... what would those be in your opinion? I’m on the hunt for something new.

Very great video. As a sony a7iii user, the file sizes are killer for me.

You should have had waaaaaaaaay more than just 1k followers. Great content, sufficient info depicted in a cinematic way. Keep it up brother!

E X C E L L E N T review, content, presentation. Well done! Thank you!!

Fantastic review, I am checking this camera out for purchase in 2022. Cheers

Best review of camera on the youtube

173 subs are you shitting me? everyone is right in the comments that was a really good watch and a genuinely spot on review, I really hope this kicks off it definitely deserves it! I feel a bit naive saying I think the 120fps looks outstanding, it seems like the dynamic range is a hell of a lot better than most of the other frame rates, for sure it looks unbelievably soft at times, so much so that it's like it's applying some weird smartphone style beauty filter to the image, it also has that bizzare switch that allows you to close the viewfinder, i'm not sure if I missed you saying that in the video if not that seemed pretty different when I was figuring everything out!

Love. The. Video. Hope you gain more subs, you work is awesome 😎

beautiful piece of work man. Hands down this is one of the best videos on KZfaq I have watched if not the best. Subscriber #773

Thanks for the video, from a sports photographer view, this video is a great compass. I´d like to know more about the LAN netwerk feature. Maybe you can effort the time to show a litte more on that. in special with the transfer rates. (for expl. into Photo Mechanic). Thanks from Germany.

Great vid man. Loved it

Great no nonsense review. However I take issue with the comment about the WFT-E8, once I am set up for a specific device I never have to re-enter the password. You only have to do that if you create a new Ad-Hoc network each time you use it, if you save your settings under any of the SET options just launch that SET and connect your device to the camera and it's done. I have one SET in memory for my phone, one for my iPad, one for my studio network when my computer will automatically detect a connected camera and launch EOS Utility etc etc. The WFT-E8 does give you way more than basic WiFi functionality with features as powerful as being able to send images via FTP to any connected device worldwide (though I suspect few users actually need that!) though I won't argue about the complexity or the price!

Thanks this was exactly what i was looking for! You just got a new subscriber!

I also have 1DX mark II, Your review is so so nice!

This was beautifully done, when I watched this two years ago, and had aged well in 2021! I must ask, are you still using this camera?

I shoot Sony and found this review to be very informative!! Great job

I love your review just wow incredible just incredible

This video is amazing, I'm a fan of what you are doing!

i just love this video so chill

Excellent video. Cheers.

Great explain straight away no loggings superb bro🙏🙏

Your video is more about relaxation. You got a sweet voice

I live right where you do! Also really nice video dude.
