(For reference, the previous Mark II camera, using the same battery pack, was rated at 1,210/260 shots, again in CIPA-conforming tests.) For video recording, EOS-1D X Mark III users can expect approximately 2 hours of A host of internal changes have extended still-image battery life to an outstanding 2,850 shots (viewfinder shooting) and 610 shots (Live View), in Canon tests conforming to CIPA


Is a new EOS-1D X - not just a lightly updated model.

The EOS-1D X Mark III is powered by the same rechargeable Canon Battery Pack LP-E19 as the previous-generation Mark II model, so transitioning to the newest professional EOS DSLR is a little easier for current EOS-1D users. As a method for virtually silent still shooting,Ģ0 FPS speed, or AF covering nearly the entire image area, Live View on the 1D X Mark III is a tool professionals can turn to. That includes the same innovative Head Detection technology as with viewfinder shooting (to put focus upon heads, when faces are obscured, or turned away), and adds Eye Detect AF. Set the AF Method to Face Detect + Tracking, and the same powerful Subject Tracking capabilities as in viewfinder shooting are The sameĪF Area options as in viewfinder shooting are available, with the addition of a horizontal Large Zone AF setting. Servo AF can follow-focus on challenging moving subjects, or lock focus One Shot AF. Dual Pixel CMOS AF covers a much broader area, with up to 100% (vertical) x 90% (horizontal) possible with most current Canon EF lenses. One last thing: it’s easy to dial-down the Continuous Shooting speed, in 1-FPS increments, whenever you don’t need all the performance.įor still-image shooting, Live View isn’t just a “tripod mode.” It extends shooting speed up to 20 FPS - with the option of virtually silent shutter operation with Electronic shutter, full Mechanical shutter, or Electronic 1st-curtain Andīehind it, newly-designed shutter and mirror mechanisms, and the DIGIC X processor - image processing speeds over 3x faster than the previous dual DIGIC 6+ processors in the Mark II model, and continuous processing potential up toĪpproximately 380x faster. Experience the same outstanding responsiveness and minimal “lag time” as previous EOS-1D X models, with even less mirror black-out in the viewfinder. JPEG images, at the fastest speeds, in a continuous burst, without slowing down. Burst Rates? Shoot over 1,000 RAW or RAW + Choose between Mechanical shutter, Electronic 1st-curtatin shutter, or Electronic (silent) shutter during Live View. Switch to Live View, and get up to 20 FPS, Up to 16 FPS, with AI Servo AF, thru the viewfinder. The 1D X Mark III gives you speed and burst rates unlike any Canon EOS camera that’s come before it. Wildlife and sports photographers, rejoice.
