Wild Burro Jenny And Foal in Custer State Park, South Dakota, and initial thoughts on the Canon EOS 1D X
Wild Burro Jenny And Foal
Custer State Park, South Dakota, USA

Canon EOS 1D X
Canon announced the EOS 1D X today. It marks the joining of the two models in the 1-series line (1D and 1Ds) into a single body with a full-frame sensor and a fast frame rate.Things I like
- 18.1 MP at 12 fps
- second multi-controller for verticals
- two CF cards
- 2, 3, 5, or 7 bracketed exposures
- Exposure compensation of ±5 EV
Things I'm not sure about
- only 18.1 MP to replace the 21.1 MP of the EOS 1Ds Mk III for landscapes
- loosing the 1.3x magnification of the 1D series for wildlife
- new battery
- looks like the AF sensor coverage area is slightly smaller than the previous 1-series bodies
