@@macieksoft it's one of the only ways I actually get paid for making these videos.

@@cameralabs Does it record or exit to SSD disc?

Gordon Laing excellent review!! As a bird photographer, I’ve been using the still great 1D Mark IV matched with the 600mm version 2. Works great together, but the camera is showing its age. I’ve always hated the feel of the 7D/5D for bird photography as you have to add a silly grip and all that to make it feel good in the hands. I’m hoping to move up to the 1Dx Mark II once it comes down a little more. Do you guys sell any used canon cameras? Thanks!

@@MrGflan sounds like the right choice for you! No, I don't own most of the products I review - they're on loan.

I just came to write the same comment 😂

🤣🤣🤣

He's stronger than I am!

#CameraConspiracies will use it to video squirrels & #MarkusPix will give one away because....🤔 well he can afford it .

That's just what I said to myself when I heard Gordon make that comment Akshay. Pete has been vlogging with the 1DX MkII for a long time and likely will do the same with this new 1DX MkIII.

@@kreygscott I imagined more of a horror scenario where Peter slowly emerges from a mist behind anyone who says the 1DX3 can't be used for vlogging... And then slowly says "Bwhats up everybody" in like a chilling voice.

Yeah but let's be honest that's the same guy that decided to use the Canon EOS R to "limit himself creatively" 😂😂😂😂

You're very welcome!

Thankyou! I put a LOT of work into this one.

I second that

It's the only one I have...

Thanks Jordan, that's very kind of you to say that! I think we were some of the only folk who've actually used one. I enjoyed yours and Chris's too x

Thanks! You're very welcome!

Thanks! I put a LOT of work into them!

Great stuff! PS - if you order online, please do consider going via my links here or in my review at cameralabs.com thanks!

Thanks! I always prefer to watch videos by people who've actually used the product. I'm never comfortable just talking about something I've not used.

Thanks, I put a lot of work into this one!

Thanks!

Thanks!

You're welcome!

If I spent 6500 on a camera I'd use it for everything too!

Thanks, i worked hard to get as much in there as possible...

Thanks!

Same

You're welcome! And that's why i can't ever be a pro sports photographer, as I'd do that look after every burst.

Thanks!

Cheers! You're welcome!

David Le has it arrived yet?

Thanks! And yes, the electronic stabilisation wasn't bad was it?

@@cameralabs I find it to be very good!

I'd love to compare them side by side fr a variety of subjects...

Silent shutter.? Awesome camera and need to upgrade from the 1DX

Thanks! Yep, it's not for most of us, but I think HEIF and DIGIC X will filter across the range.

^ that's some salty ass Sony fanboi😂

@@pinakijana9479 I've hidden that trouble maker.

thanks Bert, glad you enjoyed it! Add bonus points for the Dune quote, or is it warcraft?

@@cameralabs #Dune of course . I am addicted to every version of the books and Movies but the 1984 version is the best .

@@berthubbardt.o.o.c7314 I really liked it too - must watch it again soon.

You're welcome! I think pentax is still making new DSLRs too, but for everyone else, it's mirrorless going forward.

@@cameralabs yes I know about Pentax. When my existing arsenal expires, will think about Pentax. The current gears are likely to last at least ten years from now. So, not worried about it rather, concentrate on photography. EVF lag of mirrorless cameras is huge obstacle for me for wildlife shooting. Moreover, the fragile bodies do not look and feel comfortable in my hands. I observe wedding photogs use those like point & shoot cameras. So, no thoughts on those.

@@quazisanjeed6395 not all the bodies are fragile, have you seen the Canon R3 or Nikon Z9?

@@cameralabs, I've seen the Z9 with my fellow wildlife photographer friend. He's always complaining about the weight of that behemoth which beats the main claim of mirrorless cameras being lighter. It's only 34 grams lighter than my 1DIV requiring the same standard tripod and gimbal head as mine to stabilize with a super telephoto on it. Moreover, compared to his camera, my camera works at the speed of light (OVF) to see and capture fast action instantly. Furthermore, 1DIV reaches out 30% more than full frames. Real photographers know the advantages of their DSLRs and are not washed away by the hype. Thank you for your thoughts.

@@quazisanjeed6395 I've never been a fan of companies selling mirrorless on lightness. This was some misguided marketing in my view. It certainly has the potential to be smaller due to the lack of mirror box, but like any tool, it should primarily be comfortable and effective to hold and use. Who wants a mini hammer? And in fact the initial smaller mirrorless cameras didn't sell well, especially in the US, so the companies gradually made them bigger, in part to suit the large US market. The real benefits of mirrorless are full-time electronic composition, allowing the camera to meter, focus, subject and scene detect using the full sensor information. Being able to preview effects like black and white or different white balance as you compose. Focusing at the focal plane, eliminating AF calibration errors which became increasingly apparent on higher resolution DSLRs. Providing assistance for manual focusing, like peaking, magnification, not to mention being able to adapt just about any lens from any system. Assistance for exposure like zebras. Easily integrating IBIS and benefiting from stabilisation on any lens, including adapted vintage ones of you like. The reduction in moving parts also makes them more reliable long-term. And the only real downside for me is the lag and resolution of EVFs, which are electronic issues and hence something that are improving very quickly and will be resolved for the majority. Already the best EVFs are delivering a better experience for me personally than the best DSLR OVFs. Ultimately though, it IS a personal choice and I wouldn't want to see DSLRs disappear. They're the right choice for some people, although I genuinely feel the benefits of mirrorless make them more suitable for the majority. I made a video about why I prefer mirrorless, having previously shot DSLRs and SLRs for many decades, but I equally appreciate I am not a high-end sports or wildlife photographer, and I know many of whom prefer DSLRs. I do believe the 1Dx III will be the last of its kind though. That said, I also expect it to last for ages as it's so well made. Hope you enjoy it!

Cheers!

You're very welcome!

That's what a lot of the sports pros told me too.

Hmm, good question, I wonder if it could be a firmware thing on older models...

Nice!

Thanks!

No scrubbing - it's automatically slowed to quarter speed.

@@cameralabs but can you skip to the centre? like on the eos r it always takes forever to play when its slowed down on the the mark ii to review you're footage in the field

Thanks!

I hope the same! I'm a big fan of the DSLR-s. I like heavy gears:)

@@cretuoctavian8114 it provides so much more battery life... Last time my 90D shot over 1700 pictures and still have 30% left lol

5D?

​@@jacksonheydon9141 Not really. I'm looking for a pro-body. Besides, the 5D is really old now and no replacement will be fielded.

Thanks!

Sony is too busy perfecting the mirrorless

@@Locomotioned wrong "perfecting the eye af" 😂

actually, I belive anything this camera can do, can also be achieved with a Sony A7 iii, because of the Af performance on mirroless, you may need 16fps and almost unlimited raw because DSRL af performance is so bad next to a mirroless like the A7 iii, because of the tracking that can be done, the A7 iii just helps you with the AF so I can tell that you can get the perfect photo with a Sony much faster than you would on this camera

@Jerimiah Cook if you want 10bit buy a video camera, this are photo cameras

Andres Carrasco af is proven to be much worse than the 1DXII or D5. I have multiple sources if you’d like in addition to my own anecdotes

It's possible to calculate it based on the example footage I posted in the video. Just screengrab the uncropped and cropped footage and compare the reduction in the field of view. I'll be doing this for my final review.

Hopefully we'll have the mirrorless version before long!

Yeah, I wish they'd release more information...

Yes, but should it be DSLR or mirrorless?

@@cameralabs An updated DLSR

coffee*

ha ha! It actually worked quite well!

"and if you could all not burst into fits of laughter when Canon release a new product and I talk bullshit about how I am going to use it to limit myself creatively then that would be swell. Oh and buy my luts n shii" 😂

Er yeah! It's no coincidence that vlog section was so short!

I wish u more strength Mr hulk😁😁😁

Do you prefer optical viewfinders over electronic ones, and do you mind - or indeed prefer - the heft of the 1Dx III?

Gordon Laing these are the golden questions Gordon lol, I’ve never looked through a digital view finder to be fair however I hear that there is a lag from when you eye it to when it shows what you are looking at so maybe you could miss any immediate surprise wildlife sightings 🤔 is it anymore bigger than an R5 with a battery grip fitted? I’ll probably need to go to Park cameras and hold and view both. I really appreciate you replying buddy it’s very kind of you 👍😊

@@JPLamoureuxsTravels very happy to help you make the right choice, so fire-away! PS - if you end up buying from Park, please do so via one of my links to them at cameralabs.com thanks!

Not sure yet

I really liked it...

I think if canon put that on the 5D Mark V, I'll buy it. Hoping for the 5dv to have that new 45mp sensor they registered recently too. Also like Fro said, if this is what canon has put into the 1dx mk 3, then it's a sign of great things to come in the mirrorless space too from canon.

@@KPAki1Ler yes I'd hope they put it on the next 5D and the next high-end mirrorless

Sure is,been twice,a friend is a member..Always some press junket setting up or dismantled when I've been

Hi Jim, you can calculate file sizes by looking at the bit rates on Canon's spec sheets - if it's quoted in Megabits, just divide by 8 to get Megabytes. As for transfer to phone, it's pretty easy with Canon cameras using their iOS or Android app.

@@cameralabs thanks for the reply Gordon! I’ll have a look at the spec sheet. That’s great thank you for the help.

Ah, I'm also noticing that the lighting conditions changed quite a bit between the two clips - the higher contrast of the lighting in the 4k clip probably enhances apparent sharpness somewhat too

Do you prefer an optical or electronic viewfinder? Do you prefer the size, weight and build of the 1Dx,?

Gordon Laing I always like how meticulous you are! I have a strong connection with DSLR system as I used it for the past 25yrs. I prefer Optical viewfinder as I cannot quite get used to the Mirrorless & it’s viewfinder. I do prefer smaller body, but performance & built quality comes first. Hundreds of times, the moment i wanted was Not captured because the photos were unusable. Either too blurry cuz environment was too dark for the camera I was using OR I missed the frame due to slow shutter speed of 6D. I never had a chance to handle such a top of the line camera as 1DX and I always wanted it... now that I have enough funds, R5 comes out to get me all confused.. maybe stick to 1DX? What do u think?

Agree with this. I noticed right off the bat, the JPG has more detail in both highlights and shadows. The histogram also tells it.

Thanks! I'm reluctant to discuss image quality too much as a pre-production model, but it looked good to me. I really need to do some side-by-sides with other bodies though.

@@cameralabs Thanks! Look forward to seeing some production samples :)
