![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I love the way Canon’s pro body feels in the hand compared to mirrorless cameras, the directness of the controls, the responsiveness and of course the stills side. The 1D X Mark III does do a lot of things right too Much more acceptable but still not ideal for 2020.Īll in all, this mess leaves me to assess the camera very differently as an actual owner, compared to what I was expecting at the point of sale. Yes, in 1.5x crop mode the camera CAN do 4K/60p with autofocus (but no RAW mode). The rolling shutter in full frame 4K 60p is 16ms according to Slashcam, which is about the same as a GH4. The trade off are much larger file sizes, more difficult to edit files and no autofocus.ĭo you want to have Dual Pixel autofocus? Then switch to 24p, 25p… or for the uncultured, 30p!! □īut then you have the worst rolling shutter you’ve ever seen. So what if you want autofocus AND acceptable rolling shutter performance? Then I’m afraid you have to lose full frame! So why doesn’t it work?ĭo you want to fix the worst rolling shutter you’ve ever seen? Then switch to 60p. In full frame 4K/60p and 5.5K RAW / 60p, one of the biggest features of the 1D X Mark III – the autofocus – packs up and goes home for reasons only known to Canon.Ĭanon advertise this as a superb autofocus camera.Ĭanon also sell the 1D X Mark III as having serious cinema chops, 5.5K RAW 60p and so on. Why can’t the faster rolling shutter be active in 24p as well? What is really confusing here is that the camera has half as much rolling shutter distortion in 4K/60p, showing that the sensor has a turbo mode which allows a faster frame scan to achieve the higher frame rate. This puts the rolling shutter in the same league as the Sony A6500 and A6400. However I can confirm these findings are correct at Slashcam, the rolling shutter in full frame 4K 24p is horrific.Ī sensor readout time per frame of 32ms in 4K/24p and 5.5K RAW 24p – on a camera aimed at pro videographers. I decided to order the Canon 1D X Mark III this week, and there are good reasons to use one. Why is there always a ‘gotcha’ with this company? Just when you think Canon are turning the corner… ![]()
