THE CANON 1Dx – Understanding the New Flagship Camera

Recently Canon announced their latest flagship camera, the 1Dx that aims to blend the 1Ds full frame series of cameras with the AF and speed of the 1D series. Needless to say, it looks close the the perfect camera I have been looking for ever since I noticed the many short comings of the 5D Mark II that have led me to use my 1D Mark IV more often.

Canon has released 3 articles that cover some of the more exciting aspects of this new camera. Check them out if you wish to learn more…..
