Dpreview has done there indepth review of Canon’s lastest flagship camera. A 33 page review of the camera goes over every corner of the camera, and its actually a little lengthy at times. What’s nice to see in Dpreview reviews are side by side comparsion’s to other cameras like: Nikon D3s, MKIII, and 7D! But i do wish they would have compared the D3 to MKIV aswell. Well enough of me, on to the review. Link after the jump! Source:[Dpreview] Depth of field difference aside (only really pertinent in the paperclip crop), much of the difference between the two cameras seen in the JPEG comparisons has disappeared. Despite the resolution differences, the level of detail being captured doesn’t appear to be radically different. However, if you look at the very highest frequency detail in the sixth crop with the colored balls, the 1D IV is out-pacing the Nikon. *Click the image above to full review @Dpreview*]]> http://www.hfortysixit.com/canon-1d-mkiv-review-dpreview/feed/ 0 http://www.hfortysixit.com/superbowl-xliv-gives-canon-1d-mkiv-great-reviews/ http://www.hfortysixit.com/superbowl-xliv-gives-canon-1d-mkiv-great-reviews/#comments Sat, 20 Feb 2010 02:52:28 +0000 hfortysixit http://www.hfortysixit.com/?p=2234 #leftcontainerBox { float:left; position: fixed; top: 60%; left: 70px; } #leftcontainerBox .buttons { float:left; clear:both; margin:4px 4px 4px 4px; padding-bottom:2px; } #bottomcontainerBox { height: 30px; width:50%; padding-top:1px; } #bottomcontainerBox .buttons { float:left; height: 30px; margin:4px 4px 4px 4px; } Superbowl XLIV Gives Canon 1D MKIV great reviews! Well an article stating that the New Canon 1D MKIV is back on track to being the #1 sports camera according to many NFL professional photographers. With the short comings from the previous Canon 1D MKIII, all the problems have been pretty much resolved in the new MKIV. As i haven’t had a chance to try this camera yet, from what i’ve been hearing this is the best 1D to date. Full article after the jump. Source:[Imaging Resource] The EOS-1D Mark IV is designed to be the multimedia camera of choice for professionals across all photographic disciplines, with a new 45-point autofocus system, a 16-megapixel Canon CMOS sensor, Dual DIGIC 4 Imaging Processors, and 14-bit A/D data conversion, all at up to 10 frames-per-second (fps), with the widest ISO range Canon has produced to date. “Overall, in my opinion, the EOS-1D Mark IV is the best camera Canon has put out so far. I would have no hesitation recommending it,” said Scott Audette, a contract photographer who covered Super Bowl XLIV for Reuters. ***update*** “Hauck summed up his overall impression of the camera while photographing a pinnacle play in the game’s ultimate [...]]]> http://www.hfortysixit.com/superbowl-xliv-gives-canon-1d-mkiv-great-reviews/feed/ 1 http://www.hfortysixit.com/canon-1d-mk4-vs-nikon-d3s-round-2/ http://www.hfortysixit.com/canon-1d-mk4-vs-nikon-d3s-round-2/#comments Fri, 29 Jan 2010 03:59:13 +0000 hfortysixit http://www.hfortysixit.com/?p=2194 #leftcontainerBox { float:left; position: fixed; top: 60%; left: 70px; } #leftcontainerBox .buttons { float:left; clear:both; margin:4px 4px 4px 4px; padding-bottom:2px; } #bottomcontainerBox { height: 30px; width:50%; padding-top:1px; } #bottomcontainerBox .buttons { float:left; height: 30px; margin:4px 4px 4px 4px; } Canon 1D MK4 vs Nikon D3s Round 2! Well here we go again, round 2 of the 2 most competitive DSLR’s on the today’s market. Canon 1D MK4 vs Nikon D3s!

Well here we go folks, NeutralDay Community has direct comparison between 2 flag ship cameras from the 2 major companies, Canon 1D MK4 vs Nikon D3s! From the pictures you can see that the Nikon is just a better performer in the low light. Nikon has perfected the 12MP range. Seems like the MK4 is pretty noisy from the images that were posted vs D3s, but the 5D MK2 files are better looking than the MK4? This is first comparison i’ve seen so far, i’m sure more are to come!

Looks like he’s been using 1-series bodies for quite awhile and really familiar with them. Looks like Jeff has the camera 24hrs before his shoots and didn’t have alot of time setting up the camera, but its not much different from his 1DsMKIII. Shots from the Canon 1DMKIV they are stunning in low light! Autofocus performance is stunning. There is no other word for it. Canon have spent a lot of time and energy on this aspect of the camera and it shows. I was shooting in horrific lighting for AF systems, and it just performed faultlessly. I used the center point and the back button for focusing as this is what I have become use to over the past 12 months with the 5DMKII, and like I said it was faultless. I didn’t try AI servo mode (as I always use One shot) or any of the other AF options (some of which have been borrowed from the 7D). Source:[Jeff Ascough/Canonrumors] Pictures after the jump!

Well here are some samples images from Canon’s newest offering 1D MKIV! I do not know if this is pre-production firmware or production firmware, but either way its some high ISO images from the MKIV! From these sample images i would say that its about 1 stop better than 5D MKII, but i can’t give a true answer to that…I’m just saying comparing to my MKII to these images.
