SUMMARY
REFERENCES
The Canon EOS-1D X Mark II has long stood as a global benchmark in professional DSLR cameras. Combining multiple cutting-edge technologies like Dual Pixel CMOS Autofocus, advanced image sensor and image processing, and both still and motion image recording technologies, it has well served the global marketplace.
But, the rapid advances in video production and delivery technologies — combined with totally new video-based business — are propelling a global voracious appetite for more powerful flexibilities in video capture. For instance, vlogging continues to expand the creativity of huge numbers and their associated internet sharing; multiple web-based services are spawned almost daily; advertising is going digital at an astounding pace; professional photographers continue to find flanking new video-based businesses; and television news coverage continues to broaden.
Separately, the past five years have seen the rapid adoption of the mirrorless alternative to the established optical viewfinder-based DSLR. But, that still remains a gigantic global base and many are not ready to let go of a long familiarity with the DSLR that has served so many, so well. Canon has definitively stepped into the mirrorless world and has a firmly established roadmap to serve this growing constituency with both R-mount lenses and cameras. Nevertheless, a still well-defined parallel domain of DSLR and mirrorless has dictated a major development into a whole new generation DSLR — and that is the EOS-1D X Mark III — the topic of this paper.
A dramatic leap forward in video capture stands as one of the central design strategies of the EOS1D X Mark III. This white paper focuses exclusively on this topic. Two separate white papers cover the still-imaging and networking features of this important new product.
