Canon EOS 1D-C 4k DSLR Review

 

Ever since 4K really hit the scene, there has been much demand from the typical consumer to have a DSLR camera that is capable of it. There are some out on the market, and the Canon EOS-1D C is the first hybrid DSLR that offers onboard 4K motion...

4K video in the body of a compact DSLR ; Durable ; 18.1 Megapixel CMOS Sensor ; Ultrasonic Wave Motion Cleaning (UWMC) ; Excellent viewfinder ; Dedicated AF menu tab ; EOS iTR ; Two HD Compression modes

Need to fill a lot of CF cards for 4K video footage ; Drains the battery ; Price is too high for average consumer

I’ll be honest with you when I say that I wish I had a Canon EOS-1D C camera in my hands shooting 4K video right now. I hope that it would last a while as I would be changing out batteries and CF cards, but there is so much that can be done with it...

Canon EOS-1D C Review

 

Late last year, Canon announced the EOS-1D X, an interesting model that merged the company's earlier 1D and 1Ds-series model lines into a single product. As well as its fairly-impressive still imaging capabilities, the EOS-1D X courted professional...

Pricing and availability. The Canon EOS-1D C is scheduled to ship in the US market later this year. Body-only estimated retail pricing is expected to be in the region of US$15,000, fully 220% of the list pricing for the closely-related EOS-1D X model,...

Use the EOS-1D C as Designed

 

I've used Canon since the FTB model in 1975, migrating through all its generations. THIS model is not, and was not, EVER intended to be a "VIDEO" camera. If you want to shoot video, get a C100 or C300 or C500, or a Sony F55 if you really need to step...

Perfect hybrid camera

 

This to me is the ideal camera. Beautiful stills and great video. The S35 1080 mode creates great HD video. Best that I have ever seen in this form factor. The 4k is stunning. Just don't record in c log under ISO 400 though. Editing the 4k motion jpg...

A 4K Workhorse even in competitive world

 

We bought the 1DC when it first came out and, while choking on the price, it has proven to be rock solid -- never letting us down. Superb image quality and tons of flexibility. All the new cameras coming along have great 4K images and smaller price...

Can't Say That It's Worth It

 

I'm a high end wedding videographer and bought this to up my game. While it's a great, solid camera, it just isn't much better than a 5Dm3. The most useful feature is the full 1080p at 60fps, but that's about the only benefit I've gotten from this. The...

I am the sole producer / creator behind www.NatureRelaxation.com, and have recently upgraded to the Canon 1DC from the 5D Mark II that did me so well. This camera is a beast. The quality is unparalleled; it's build and design is so solid that it will...
