1st - KZfaq suggests your video, I decide to click on it. 2nd - I am immediately intrigued by your big smile and your generally positive vibe, so I decide to check out your Instagram 3rd - Holy crap, this guy actually has really good stuff... 4th - Subscribed.

Thanks so much! It’s hard as a pro to KZfaq. It’s a lot of work to make a competent video and then it makes you no money haha. I’m trying hard to do it more but even a silly unboxing video burned my whole day around my assignment. But I’m working hard to make and share more of these and really appreciate the kind words!!

It's so awesome to watch you unbox a camera that you will actually use professionally. The company I'm shooting for this weekend at Daytona had one delivered. I played with it in the trailer but he's been using it and enjoyed it a lot. It oddly just feels more refined than my 1DX Mark II? Looking forward to your review. I might sit this round out and evaluate if I even need to upgrade.

@BrettCarlsen 4 жыл бұрын

Appreciate that. Yes. I think it’s like a finer version of it. Working on tests and stuff now and have professional boxing tomorrow night to shoot with it. I find 1DX body upgrades have a collection of small upgrades that really add up. If that makes any sense

I personally find a real cinema camera (if you’re doing video only) is just light years better day to day. These are great for c cam or weird setups etc. but having built in ND, proper ergonomics etc etc. make your life super easy in comparison. Let alone the audio. XLRs and great pre amps allow you to do a ton of work pretty easily instead of a mess of cables and pre-amps or recorders etc. not to say you can’t do it with either just love having a dedicated video setup on the video days

Hello Brett, congrats with your new camera. I' am using 1D cameras for a long time know. I own the 1DX and I want to upgrade. With my 1DX I have one big problem, the oil spletter problem. In Holland we have a company that is brilliant with sensor cleaning, but I can't go there every month (big money). But I'am really sick of removing 200-350 dots an image!! Can you let me know if this camera has the same problem? I'll be very grateful if you will lett me know. Thank you very much. Greetings from Holland and have fun with this beast.

Great video review. An interesting use for a 1DXMIII. It's nice to see the new features, but $6500 is a lot to spend for a wedding camera, especially one with only 20mpx. A Sony A9 is $4000 less and has 20fps, silent shooting, eye autofocus, and a flip screen. Plus it is a lot lighter. For a thousand more I can buy a Sony A7R4 with 61mpx. However, if you do a lot of weddings the 1DX is a solid workhorse and Canon has a lot of lenses available. For me, I find that the newer mirrorless cameras are a lot easier to use for wedding style portraiture. Their lighter weight, eye autofocus, and flip screen saves my back and lets me get amazing shots without contortion. Do I need a new camera? Not really, but it's always nice to get a new lens. Unfortunately, the 1DXMIII will not be able to use the new Canon R lenses like the spectacular 85mm F1.2. It will be interesting to see what the Canon R5 brings to the table.

@BrettCarlsen 4 жыл бұрын

Definitely all valid thoughts. I cover news, NFL, UFC and everything in between. Cameras get a lot of use and go through hell especially weather and nothing is as tough as the Nikon D4/5/6 series or the Canon 1D bodies. Also use a giant variety of lenses especially in the super telephoto range. This new camera is incredible when it comes to AF and also the ease of changing settings without looking at a menu is amazing on these style cameras. That being said weddings are a different beast and eye AF on Sony or Canon R bodies would be very helpful and (hopefully) you aren’t standing in rain storms for 5 hours like I have to haha.

Howdee. I havent seen you in a while. I have a 1Dx mark 1 with a 300mm that I dropped and not sure if any damages at the moment. Rather than send it in for possible repair, a friend offered me his 1Dx Mark 2 with a 400mm f 2,8 but I dont know what they are selling for today Feb 2023. Any idea? I love my 1Dx but it would be nice to have the mark 2. And the 400 for foorball. I just dont want to overpay for it. I welcome any advice. Thanks.
