The last King of DSLR 👑 ....absolute Beast!!

[@FriedFx]

incredible camera. Canon's autofocus is always golden... I started using DSLRs with the Rebel T3i... Manual focus all the way on that gem. Had black magic firmware on it for some focus peaking, bitrate control, fine tuned shutter speed for video. Now using an EOS-R at a new job and love the autofocus. It has saved me SOO MUCH TIME. I wear many hats at my company so I can't be sitting there getting my focus pulls right. I still do some manual ones but jeez, autofocus is a time saver. I have mad respect for photographers that grew up with manual focus. I also shoot only Manual mode as well...

[@TheSlackassCrew]

41 minutes that i do have today

[@paulcollingridge8387]

I'm not changing from my A7iii but there's no doubt Canon have built the best dslr ever for sport, wildlife and journalists... I think it will sell well to all those guys who still use the mk1, which is a lot in the birding community

[@alanwrobleski]

A7III is still the absolute best bang for the buck out there.

[@anthonyc1883]

Paul, are you part of the birding community? If so, wondering about something. The huge outlay in money for pro level bodies, and super telephoto’s, is kind of breathtaking to me. Do you know if there is really any money to be made in that field, or are the people you know pretty much doing it for the love of it. Thank you.

[@paulcollingridge8387]

Never made a penny or even tried. I'm a scientist so looking at documenting evidence

[@paulcollingridge8387]

My pics are purely functional.... No public would say "wow"... For me a long lens is for reach and detail... 100-400 on A7iii or a6400 for reach

[@kineticuncertainty]

I got the Sony A7R4 and the 200 -600 and it's amazing for birds

[@frandecatta]

Thanks Jared! I've been playing with the raw files that you shared and one of the most important things that I've noticed, at least for my work.... seems to have ISO invariance. Pushing up +5 EV to 100 iso pictures, it shows almost no noise in deep shadows. Finally, Canon is at the same level as sony/nikon are in dynamic range. I hope to see the same dynamic range in R5 and R6 series. EOS R is already great, but that's a big step forward.

[@RajagopalaRaoS]

I don't have any beef with mirrorless, infact am amazed with what they can do Though I just love the ability to see the actual image through the viewfinder Yes it lacks autofocus speeds or the settings and can be flawed too but I am colorblind and I love seeing what I want to capture That said, amazing review Hope I can afford one of these as a dslr one day Great Job

[@TheCaptainWalter]

Out of my price range but really enjoyed the review. Thanks Jared.

[@1young-geezer]

narfle the garthug??? There, you have it - and thanks for that exhausting

[@eaglebeagle1408]

Well I bought a MK3 and boy is it really great , no need to change my L lenses. Auto focus is a dream, excellent for sports action at 20 fps and delivers a stream of very usable images. My last camera, with the 1DX in the kit bag as a well used back up the hype on mirrorless has passed me by.

[@toddsulli6495]

How are you liking it so far? Is it still meeting your expectations? I’m debating on purchasing one, I’m still too fond of the dslr’s and haven’t jumped ship to mirrorless, yet. Thank you

[@eaglebeagle1408]

@@toddsulli6495 It's awesome and it is is more than adequate for the action photography I do.

[@MrTom38ncalif]

Just found this thread. Love that Jared talks to facts and to real life situations, I just upgrated to the 1DX3 from the 1DX1 .. what a dramatic change due to CF express. Maybe i am old school, but I love the EF L lenses, Also picked up a Canon XF605 if youre into video - both are supberb . Love you Canon!!

[@VanessaJoy]

Of course it is ❤️

[@kumaiyl.k]

I'll happily wait for the R5

[@JePeVePe]

Same here... use my 1D-XmkII then as a backup :) (and sell my R camera... don't like that one... nice for video, but for photography, let say, if you are used to a 1D, it's couple of steps back... :) ).

[@exquisitewidget4227]

Oof😬 would’ve been better off with the 1dx lmaooooo

[@exquisitewidget4227]

Venus Tilta already did! From what I’ve seen it’s more of just the software assuming the camera will be overheating after a certain point in time than it actually is the hardware physically overheating. Which means canon is being very conservative with their overheat times. Fingers crossed we’ll see some major updates done to the overheating issues

[@m_adamec]

How about now?

[@exquisitewidget4227]

Michael Adamec from what I’ve seen the “overheating” is still an issue that will be corrected later. I’ll be sticking with my original EOS R for another couple years tho😂

[@aussie2uGA]

Now that we’re all sheltered in place, I’m waiting for “Canon captures coronavirus photo with this new macro and stacked extension tubes...”

[@zebical]

Haha, funny. Back in uni, the microscopes we used had Canon T6i mounted onto the microscopes. The original cameras that came with the microscopes were too expensive to replace and were not as good. So yea, photographing red blood cells with Canon Rebel T6i, hahaha. So yea, can't photograph a virus (need SEM for that), but close enough?

[@meatsim65]

Canon medical imaging is actually working on tests for coronavirus right now.

[@MrGflan]

Aussie2u my MP65 is insane. Love it. I got a close up shot of a piece of millet seed that looks like a basketball lol

[@StarGateSG7]

With the right external objective lens tube there is no reason ANY APS-C or FF camera from canon, Sony, Fuji, etc cannot be used as a 1000x optical microscope which is enough to see blood platelets (2 microns). The limits of optical imaging: Diffraction Limits en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffraction-limited_system HOWEVER, by using purposeful peizoelectric object lens "shaking", you can get AROUND the wavelength limits of light by taking angular slices of sub-micron-level features and using a statistical math function to ESTIMATE the location of a feature in 2D-XY and 3D-XYZ space allowing you to create a synthetic MAP of a surface down to as low as 5 nanometres which DOES allow you to see a virus. Since Coronavirus is a large virus at 120 nanometres, this multi-plane interferometry technique to get around optical wavelength limits WOULD WORK to see even the tiny spikes on the surface of the virion! This means that fancy Canon 1Dx Mk3 camera needs only about another $1500 to $2000 worth of lens elements and peizoelectric motors to make it sub-micron-level microscope! And since the technique is VIDEO friendly! You could take 60 fps 4K at 10-bit 4:2:2 or 120 fps HD videos of their full viral glory! ..

[@Joevlogs1092]

😂🤣

[@Ruffian_Xion]

22:07 - 'tell the system where you want it to look'. Oohh I see, riiight 😉. Seriously though, this does look like an amazing camera. I'll just have to hope that Nikon can pull something similar out of the bag because I can't afford to sell all my Nikon glass and buy new Canon replacements if and when I go to full-frame.

[@anthonyc1883]

Oh, come on! You’re not willing to dump an entire camera system every couple years when the Latest and Greatest is released by the competition? (Heavy sarcasm)

[@benjanorris]

I know absolutely nothing about cameras but found this very interesting and enjoyable to watch

[@ericwong738]

The review is finally here...

[@desertoo23]

Man I have anxiously been waiting for Jared`s 1dX MARK II review and now it is out. Since I can`t leave my house this is something I am watching carefully. Let me get my cup of coffee ! WOW Can`t wait!

[@SynysterNick]

Please make a video focusing on the video features of this camera! Maybe get Dan or Steven to talk as well, that would be cool! I really like your content man!

[@RobBulmahn]

Must've shot this video before your fro deflated.

[@ObjectiveTruth5168]

imagine if Canon hadnt abandoned the Eye Controlled Focus they used on the old EOS-3 and A2E film cameras.

[@thedondeluxe6941]

Those cameras were great! Still have my old EOS 5, which is the European name for the A2E.

[@obsidian00]

So in summary...the 1DX3 is the absolute monster that we thought it would be once we saw the specs! Now...just waiting on my body to arrive. ALL HAIL THE KING!!! P. S. #narflethegarfud

[@MrGflan]

ObSiDiAn17 who did you do the deal with?

[@obsidian00]

Gary Michael Flanagan B&H...I knew I would have to wait due to demand plus what is going on with the supply chain due to the Beer Bug :-(

[@MrGflan]

ObSiDiAn17 i have a hook up at adorama which I hope to go with when they get one in. It was tempting, and I had the camera in my cart and was on the phone with canon U.S.A., but they refused even the smallest discount. It would have been $6900 with tax and I just didn’t want to go with them since they refused to negotiate even a little bit. Kinda surprised actually. Hopefully my contact gets one in soon. When is yours coming?

[@obsidian00]

Gary Michael Flanagan Welp! That’s the thing...it’s been stuck on 3-4 weeks for a hot minute now but...I get it...as long as I am in the cue that’s all that matters...besides, not like I can go out shooting like I would want to :-(

[@MrGflan]

ObSiDiAn17 that’s why you gotta shoot wildlife like I do!! It’s usually pretty easy to find good subjects unless the parks are closed. I have been photographing osprey diving for fish and it’s a lot of fun. Your new camera would be insane for wildlife stuff!! Stay safe out there!!

[@georgephippsgreen5745]

I am happy they made this. I have a 5D Mark IV and I have many lenses. So I will wait until they are cheaper to get one. Mean while I will continue using Sony. I really love Canon but Sony is giving me great results. Thank you for all your details.

[@roelofjansevanrensburg9467]

Hi Jared. I watched the video and what I like is that on timeline 32:24 , the camera (although the focusing block is still white and not blue and not on her face as yet) the camera has already placed her face in focus and is sharp, then the focusing block catches up, lock onto her face and turn blue. do I have this wrong ? weren't you pressing the shutter as yet? .... It's as if the camera gets the face in focus and the blue block just follows to ensure you .."YES I've got this."......never the less I thought it was cool

[@annettehurd9391]

Zamani is sooo talented! Nice review Jared!

[@LennyCooke636]

Fantastic video, thank you ! Allot of work was done in this one. I use to shoot Marathon races and little league Baseball and Football. Shooting action Sports can be a frustrating experience if you don't know what you are doing. When I first started my keeper rate was about 20% or less, this after a whole day (9 am-5 pm) of shooting. Once I got the hang of it my keeper rate increased. Continuous AF, AI-Servo and Multiple Frame per second are all important, but so is Timing. You have to be able to time the subject in that millisecond when they momentarily stop, then you press the shutter. Not easy to do when some one is running past you at 15 miles per hour, you are holding a heavy lens often with a Monopod, people are running in front of your subject and you are subject to the elements. I'm sure this camera will be a boon to many Sports photographers. I wish I had it when I was shooting sports. I'm not sure how the Sony renders images, but I remember that comparing the images from the 1D to the images from lesser cameras such as the 40D, or 50D which we also used, was like night and day.

[@paulfityo1]

Thanks for taking the time to make this video bud

[@vincenttodd1818]

Watched the full review . How close will the images and autofocus be to the R6...fingers crossed very close!

[@Cochegrz]

I own a Pentax K70 which has a live view similar to a mirrorless camera. I use a loupe like Jared recommends to obtain the benefits of facial recognition and focus-peaking with manual lenses. Haven't tried for sports, though.

[@glencheung1059]

I watched the whole video too. I have the EOS-6D ii, the next camera for me is definitely a mirrorless camera, I would probably get the EOS-R6, since that is what I could afford at the moment.

[@yannickchaumont1225]

Same idea over here. Also coming from the 6D2

[@RealTechGeek]

I wouldn't recommend getting any new camera just get what you can right now the whole world will going through at least a year. Get the eos rp 1Dx ii

[@yannickchaumont1225]

The Real Tech Geek Got my 6D2 one year ago, don't think of getting a new camera the next 3-4 years. It's just a bad situation at the moment because I don't wanna invest in glass since I am sure that I'll switch to RF in the next 5-7 years

[@RealTechGeek]

@@yannickchaumont1225 The RF 35mm 1.8 IS USM is a great starter lens.You can get it really inexpensive used. I have the OG the original 6D. Got it used a year and a half ago. I am surprised why they didn't bring out a rf 50mm like the nifty fifty. Just get the essentials right now. Food shelter clothing and water.

[@yannickchaumont1225]

The Real Tech Geek Nah that's not what I mean. I am still in the old ecosystem, not RF. Still using my 6D2 with thr EF 35mm 1.4. And I don't wanna buy new lenses for EF because I will switch to RF in the next few years

[@ayfj4572]

Fantastic review Jared, your the only reviewer I know of to go to so much trouble to do this comparison.

[@ctf9354]

Hi Jared, the Canon 1DX Mark III reminds me of the Sony A99ii where you also had a DSLR and a DSLM in one body. What do you actually think of the Sony a99ii?

[@DESIGNS-vo1mt]

😂🤣😂🤣

[@HesselFolkertsma]

Man, translucent mirror technology and an EVF would have made this Jared’s perfect camera.

[@ctf9354]

If sony would finally release an A99iii with 30FPS and 42mp, 8K video and and a fully rotatable display like the A99ii, it would be the perfect camera that even had perfect ergonomics.

[@rtyler1869]

CTF canon is doing that, only hold up is Covid-19

[@cooloox]

Canon had SLRs with translucent mirrors in the film days.

[@zakabog]

I just recently discovered your channel since I recently got back into photography as a hobby and I'm loving all of these videos. I like that you don't seem to bias heavily one way or another between manufacturers, you're all about the capabilities and limitations of a camera rather than the brand name. I'm looking forward to seeing your video reviewing the Canon EOS R5 whenever that camera launches. #NarfleTheGarthok

[@juliejulie1545]

I'm entering that camera contest for sure!!

[@allthecommonsense]

Super happy I got mine early. One maybe obvious thing that wasn’t shown here is that the AF subject tracking not only follows a subject around in a static frame, but it also follows the subject as I move the camera to recompose a given frame. This way I can set the initial AF point with mediocre composition, and whole holding the focus button down, recompose (including zooming in or out) as quickly as I need to, and the focus will still be on the subject when I finally hit the shutter button. Epic.

[@froknowsphoto]

That’s a given.

[@allthecommonsense]

Jared Polin I don’t think it is a given. From an engineering standpoint, it’s an entirely different and more difficult use case than tracking a subject moving along a relatively predictable path within a static frame (i.e. a background that isn’t constantly changing due to panning and/or zooming). There is every chance that subject tracking capability could be compromised by certain kinds of background altering events (especially panning & zooming combined) while the subject isn’t moving in a common/predictable trajectory relative to the frame (i.e. photographer moving the camera to re-compose vs. the subject traveling along a mathematically predictable trajectory).

[@reneelias6812]

Enjoyed watching this! Thanks for the videos! Keep them coming! *Video idea* during this time in quarantine you should do a price point video! (Like best Camera @ $1,000 , $2,000 , $4,000 etc

According to Canon, the reason why they don’t have an R1 equivalent is because of the EVF. When they’re satisfied that they have one worthy of an R1, they will do it. They said that they have to get it right the first time on a flagship product, and they right.
