Canon EOS 1DX Mark II Review: Still Relevant In 2019 For Photography?

[@patricksmith2553]

This camera, as long as it's still working well, will ALWAYS be relevant!

[@AAKAMA81]

Not if you're buying it in 2019...at it's current RRP.

[@PilotPhotog]

Great review and presentation - thanks for sharing I am considering a 1DX and this video helps!

[@TECH360TV]

Thanks for watching.

[@wylie_photo]

Love the 1DXII, it's a camera that feels like it is always ready for the races. SO quick and responsive, and when the shutter is firing away rapidly it's a lot of fun!

[@TECH360TV]

20 seconds in the video and I'm going to say yes its still relevant... Better than most cameras being put out today

[@TECH360TV]

Ok. Let us know what you think when you get to the end of the video 😊

[@ricardorgomez]

"How good is it for photography in 2019?" Like most medium to high-end cameras built in the past 7 years or so, more than most photographers are capable of.... Great review. I love reviews of older tech. Even the original1DX is more than enough for 99.9% of photographers out there. Probably any of us.

[@TECH360TV]

Thanks for watching. Yeah these cameras hold up well over the years.

Ricardo Gomez Lenses matter much more and there aren’t even lenses that could make the best out of these cameras. The Zeiss Otus range is really great. A 24-70, 70-200 is far from perfect but are pretty good.

[@ks1890]

Picked up the 1Dx ii this week after years of using the various 5D and 7D cameras..and it is amazing for the wildlife and sports photography I do. I really thought it didn't get much better than the 5D iii for the Canon line up but boy was I wrong

[@TECH360TV]

The camera also surprised me as well. Much better than expected. Congrats on the new gear.

[@heeroyuy9z]

I was in the same boat. Also had 5Diii an d 7Di. Gave 7D to my brother and bought a slightly used 1DXii. No regrets and didn't want to wait for pro-mirrorless to come out next year since I have SO MUCH L-series glass. Great video @tech360.tv

[@ScottPrincePhotography]

I just bought mine and can’t wait to get a hold of it

[@magansaini1947]

great content brother, you got a new subscriber. much love and support from India 🙏

[@TECH360TV]

Thank you!

[@jdpst20]

I mean I just bought mine only back in June of last year and I have to say I can't imagine anything else. It has plenty of Megapixels, the AF is amazing the battery lasts all day and it's rugged as hell. I don't mind the weight and photo wise it never fails me.

[@TECH360TV]

Yeah it’s a camera one needs to try to understand the feeling and confidence it gives you. Missing using it since we had to give it back

[@jdpst20]

J. A. Jones totally understand. I use it a lot for work and small projects so it has already paid for itself which I can offer video and photo options to clients. If I was a pure hobbiest I prob wouldn't opt for something so $$$

[@trekgod3]

"Is Canon's current top of the line, most expensive camera still relevant? " Is this even a real question?

[@neil8481]

@kevin bangs now 1dx mark 3 is out and it looks promising

[@neil8481]

@kevin bangs true. I wish the make a similar version with rf mount because the rf lenses are great. And I hope they release a r mount pro body and a rf tele converter.

You're amazing! Thank you for this review

[@TECH360TV]

Thank you for watching!

[@jdpst20]

I got my 1DXii about a year ago and I couldn't be happier. I came from a 5Diii and will never look back. Sure it's bulky and heavy but who cares, it just works. Yeah it might not have the tricks and bells and whistles that newer 2018/19 cameras have like the XT3 or Sony this or whatever that but I love it for it's simplicity, fast AF, Duel Pixel Af and the images I get out of the camera both stills and in video to me make it worth it. With a flick of a switch I can be in 4k 60, then I can map a button to shoot 1080p at 120fps then switch back to photos literally in seconds. Sold the 50mm 1.2 as it was super sexy of a lens, just wasn't to excited about the focal length. I got the 35mm 1.4ii instead and I'm way happier. The 70-200 2.8ii IS also goes with me everywhere and it just such a sweet lens paired with the camera even for hand held video I can stabilize at 70-100mm it's that good. This camera will keep me content for at least another 4-5 maybe even 6 years as It has the features I use and need, regardless of the new systems that come out.

[@TECH360TV]

Thanks for watching and sharing your experiences. That’s one of the things I also enjoyed with the camera while testing it. It just works. I heard great things about the 35 1.4. Hope to try that someday.

[@langdons2848]

I shoot (photo and video) with a 1DXii and I love it. Reliably, great ergonomics, predictable. I recently added a Panasonic G9 to my kit because I needed a smaller, lighter camera for some of my travel work. It's a fantastic camera and I love the IBIS and other tech in it. But. Using it really reinforced to me how mature the 1DXii is. It just works. The G9 is a fabulous camera and the light weight is a joy, but it's harder to use, not as robust, not as well constructed. All things I can live with, but it does reinforce just how good the 1DXii is at doing what it does. Love both these cameras. How lucky are we to live in a time where we have such great equipment to argue over?

[@TECH360TV]

Agree with you especially on your last sentence. We do live in some amazing times. This is what struck me with the 1DX as well as how good the 1DX is even after 3 years on the market. It’s one of the few cameras I’ve used where I didn’t really need to worry about not getting the shot, or Low light issues, or even video limitations. It just works well all around.

[@denisturavtsov]

Please tell me. What would you buy now? used 1DXM2 or new R6. For me, this is a very relevant question for today) 1DXM2 is it really cool?

[@9rider11]

I use my 1DXii mainly for the infamous 4K/60 and low light/night photography. Otherwise, I shoot with my new EOS R. The 1DXii is definitely relevant in 2019.

[@curtishicks6405]

V Smith, do you have any issues with Canon EOS R and 70-200 focus hunting? I upgraded to the latest firmware and still hunts

[@walkingmanvideo9455]

@@TECH360TV Solid and reliable. I have photographed product, sports, landscape, portraits and wildlife in wild weather, wet and dusty as hell. Would like to see a Sony user brave the elements. LOL, Thanks for producing the video, its good to see photographers out there appreciating a well built and high quality camera. Too many people sucked in to upgrade syndrome when a new camera comes out each year. I think people should really keep their old kit and learn how to use it. My second shooter is a 5dmk2. I played a trick a few months ago on a forum where I posted 5 photos claiming each were shot with a Canon, Sony, Nikon, Panasonic and Fujifilm. I conducted a poll for users to nominate which camera made which photo. So many answers................at the end of the experiment, I gave in......they were all captured with Canon 5dmk2. Dont get caught into consumerism or the hype about the magic that each camera supposedly delivers...keep what you own and use it well.

[@mikew9788]

Totally agree about optical vf. Evf's are not there yet for me

[@DennisLimCY]

hey @tech360.tv, just a small suggestion - why not mention the camera/lens combo you guys are using to film each video? This video looks pretty good, and I am curious what gear was used to film it. Was it the 1DX Mark II as well?

[@TECH360TV]

Hi Dennis, thanks for the feedback. We used a combination of the GH5 and Canon M50 to shoot this. We would have liked to use the 1DX Mark II, but we didn’t have a large enough CFast Card to make that happen.

[@guillandanthony711]

I have the 70-200 f2.8 Mark 2, and the sharpness is also unbeatable. A Mark 3 is not relevant for me right now, as the Mark 2 delivers nearly perfect results. I use it sometimes for portrait photography and you could actually count the pores on someones face. I also have the 50mm 1.2 and I like the way it shoots what you actually see with your own eyes. now I am selling my RP and looking for a used 1D MK2 online.

[@richardgatecliffephotograp7024]

[@TECH360TV]

Hi Richard thanks for watching! Yes it will be especially for the Olympics coming up

[@avilionstars]

may be a foolish question but with photography at this level, do you typically rely on the autofocus or manually adjust?

[@TECH360TV]

With a camera like the 1DX the autofocus is part of the main reasons why you would buy this type of camera. Tracking, speed and precision are why this camera is at its price point.

[@avilionstars]

Got it, thanks for the reply!

[@TECH360TV]

No prob! Good question and always good to keep the skills up by going manual focus once in a while.

[@Bb4r]

While I have never used the 1DX Mk ll, I would imagine it is still relevant. I currently use 2 Mk l's and a 5D Mk lll and they are most definitely still relevant. When wear becomes an issue with the current 1DX's I use, I intend to purchase a Mk ll as replacements. I have used several models of Canon cameras since I began doing photography seriously; the Ftb, the F1, the 1N, the 1V. GO CANON!!

[@armiesphotography9414]

Hey man, do you use Creative styles? Or can you share with me your editing style?

[@TECH360TV]

Hi. For these pics I played with the tones slightly to create a certain look that compliments the natural colours but also gives the urban vibe to the pics. Basically I play with highlights, shadows, temp and dehaze tools mainly. If certain colours are distracting from the subject I’ll mute them slightly but otherwise that’s about it. For the BW I usually do my edits in color, switch to BW and then fine tune

[@armiesphotography9414]

[@conradpanelo7050]

[@kilohotel6750]

I picked one up in February. The lowlight capability is great and you will never outrun the buffer with the Cfast2.0 card.

[@TECH360TV]

Yes the CFast card is a beast.

[@TECH360TV]

Sorry Rich but I disagree. The AF on the 1DX is much better than the A7III especially when shooting in high frame rates. If you are caught up with eye tracking only sure that’s Sony, but if need to shoot action and track and at 14 frames a second in raw, I’m picking up the 1DX. Low light is also very good. Forget the top numbers, look at usable numbers and results.

[@kilohotel6750]

Maybe but I don’t want that little $2000 body when I’m out photographing wildlife in snow,sleet and rain.

[@GarrisonMagyar]

[@GarrisonMagyar]

TECH360.TV yeah i heard between Q4 2019 to Q1 2020

[@TECH360TV]

Eagerly anticipating it

[@qtben17]

In live view mode, the continuous autofocus (servo) doesnt work and ul miss lots of shots if the subject is moving a lot, esp with forward/backward direction. In video mode, autofocus in 120fps is considerably slower and hunts a bit. The 4k mjpeg codec needs lots of resources in post editing. Oftentimes the heavy weight is a burden with run and gun video on a gimbal. Screen not flippin’ for low slung angle and no built in wifi means a need for external monitor. I sold mine after a year and got a7iii instead. But im keeping the 5dm4 for photos as mirrorless cant replace the look of an slr, yet.

[@Stefan1968ful]

The Canon 1DX Mark II is for me still the best camera out there for Wildlife - Action - Sport. I can compare it, I also can use the Sony A9 and Nikon D850. But nothing can compete with the 1DX Mark II. And this is not just because if the speed and reliability. It is simply because of the excellent Canon ecosystem. I use the Canon 1DX mark II together with the stunning Canon 600mm 4.0 III and this is a combo no other company can offer. Excellent in image quality, reliability and customer support. Exactly what I need on my tours through Siberia, South America and Africa. Forget any Sony system here, this is just a toy camera system compared to the Canon 1DX Mark II.

[@TECH360TV]

Which sport and wildlife photographer seriously needs the video options? The robust body in combination with the large lenses makes them attractive for professionals. In comparison, EOS R is more of a lifestyle product. Refreshing video in a great environment.

It still is not only relevant but better then most new cameras, including mirrorless, out there today. P.S the EF 50mm L f1.2 is one of the best lenses I ever used not because of sharpness but because its own special character (I'd take it over the new RF anyday).

btw, you can go up to 16 fps, it has the ability of 4K 60p, 120p in HD, all the DPAF goodness, slight crop in 4K tho still all in FF, body is indestructible, battery is immortal, AF is extremely precise. All you need is a skill, money and a loads of processing power. I've been many times in Japan, and when it comes to professional photography no matter what the event, you see only 1DX2's and occasional D5's. Not to mention it's 4 years old, but still beats basically every pro camera on the market. Release of a new beast for Olympics is irrelevant. No pro will trust a brand new hardly tested camera, while they still have reliable sure thing to get the job done - 1DX2.

[@LordArioh]

@leicanoct kinda, but when your career is on the line.. I'd leave a new camera for something less important or as a backup. But I know what you mean, I got couple of Canon's and never had to babysit them either. Straight out of the box into action like caves, volcanoes, winter, rain, never ever had a thought that it might fail. I wonder if DX3 gets a flipout screen for vloggers))))) Looks like Nikon abandoned DSLR lines and pretty much failed at APS-C mirrorless. Hopefully Canon will still give us 7D3 and 90D or a hybrid of them. I really don't wanna move into mirrorless.

[@TECH360TV]

I think the pro R will be near the 5DSR vs the 1DX. Canon can’t risk creating a mirrorless 1DX for the olympics and not performing for the photographers. The 1DX will prob be the last of the DSLR and then the next version will be mirrorless. The RF lenses are far better than the EF lenses. The only challenging part will be the large telephoto lenses. Those might still be EF for a while I’m guessing. Imagine the size of a 4 or 500mm lens in RF mount. It will be massive.

[@TheFilmmakingChannel]

TECH360.TV Don’t you think they might go mirrorless? The pro version of the EOS R?

[@TECH360TV]

Not till after The Olympics. Too risky to come out with the high speed mirrorless camera for such a big event where Canon is the official camera. However I think a high res mirrorless variant will come out before end of the year. Perhaps a 5DSR equivalent just my guess but seems logical considering a mid tier and budget mirrorless is already available

[@playeronthebeat]

Photography is like many things: It's the person doing the work. The camera is just ... Well, it's just the tool or rather the extension. ^^ Still, I'd rather go for mirrorless and something ... Aside from Canon tbh. Spec wise - yes, this is contrary to what I said before - they disappointed me (for the price they charge). And for me, the speed does not matter at all. I do take my time on the shots I make. I plan them out and I only do planned shots (landscape, star trails, etc) when I do unplanned shots, I usually do not need fast cameras as well ... So yeah. Still, 1DX is a great camera ^^

[@TECH360TV]

Understand and agree it’s just a tool, but the right tool can help achieve the shots one wants. There are a lot of benefits to mirrorless, and before reviewing the 1DX I even asked myself that question among others, but I have to say I warmed to the fact it’s nice to use a camera that can do many different things and that as a photographer opens up your creative juices to try different types of photography. I also feel the price might be bit high 3 years in, but also respect the durability and robustness of the system.

I have that same duo and love them

[@TECH360TV]

Yes definitely the duo to have.

[@judevidal1179]

This is my dream camera. I think i need to stop dreaming about this camera because this camera is so expensive. 😥

[@TECH360TV]

It’s a dream camera for many. It’s been one I’ve wanted to review for a while now. Will be sad to have to give the review unit back haha

[@DESIGNS-vo1mt]

Just hold on. After a while it'll be a lil cheaper once they start to release more mirrorless stuff. I'll still be looking at this 😎

[@TheJudge064]

The og 1dx is about $2000 on ebay if you're interested

[@stefanmodigh7897]

I said that to the 5dmrk 3 when it was new, it had everything I needed. Had the 5dmrk1 and it wasnt bad att all. It took a lot of working hours and night shifts at work I had back then to save up for the mrk3, took me like two years before I got it. It is possible for you to get it, if your willing to commit. :) Ive had my 5dmrk3 for about 6 years now and its great, never let med down. And Ive been so confident that Ive havent gotten a second unit to shoot with for client work. Now Im saving up for the 1dxmrk2, think it will take me like 3 years to save up lol!

nice photos bro

Thanks bro and thanks for watching

Really nice review, moments specially with kids touched me, #Ascertain

[@TECH360TV]

Thanks for watching 😊

[@MadHatter123456]

What a behemoth... Had a 7D until a few months ago, switched to the M50. I don't want anything with a mirror, ever again...

[@TECH360TV]

We used an M50 for our B rolls on this video. Lovely camera. The 1DX is for a particular photographer, not everyone’s tea, but what it does it does very well

[@MadHatter123456]

@@TECH360TV true that. I don't shoot video, so I have no reason to complain about the cropped 4k-video ;) Jokes aside, I love that little camera. Great image quality, great AF... What more could I want. Aside from a better battery life...

[@CO8848_2]

It’s relevant, for body builders

[@TECH360TV]

That’s why you gotta lift haha

[@DeltaSoftAustralia]

I thought the question was not why would anyone buy this in 2019 but what choices a professional photographer has. This is not a selfy camera. Total cost with lense and all gears could go well and truly over $10K.

[@nathan11x]

This camera came out 3 years ago

[@guessgirl051]

me watching this is 2022... considering this camera I currently have a 6D

[@VWayyyyyyyy]

If I had 5 racks I would cop this.😄😁 Not fully breaking down specs, because it's already talked about.🤣 +1

[@happypro3212]

Funny part kids sounds good 😂😂 ooh no they are not sound good in picture they look good 😂😂😂 I love this review if you do too give me some likes 👏

[@TECH360TV]

Thanks for the watching!

[@TexMex421]

It's a great camera, but the 5D IV is a better choice for most Canon shooters.

[@TECH360TV]

In some ways yes, but depends on the needs of the photographer. If you have the money the 1DX is the jack of all trades though.

[@TexMex421]

@@TECH360TV A 5D IV has better low light performance and 50% more pixels. It's half the cost and weight and far more quite. If you have the money you can carry a spare camera. Studio, hiking, landscape, travel, portraits, weddings, the 5DIV is a better camera. Wildlife is a toss-up, and Sports (except golf) the 1DXII is better.

[@akosigreywolf]

Thank you for the review

[@nikkiblade2970]

I shot Canon for ten years and about a year ago switched to the SONY a9. For $3,500.00 go it the a9 TRUST!!!

[@TECH360TV]

Lots of A9 love here, but the Canon colours and IQ aren’t quite there with the Sony as of yet

[@danieldion1880]

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@stevenlui8105]

It’s one of the three flagship digital camera bodies I used to own, and the least favorite one to me. May be still relevant to many but definitely irrelevant to me in 2019.

[@TECH360TV]

Steven Lui thanks for the comment. May I ask why it’s become irrelevant for you?

[@DESIGNS-vo1mt]

@@TECH360TV probably because other youtubers said so🤣. It takes pictures. Put a pic from this and any other camera and tell a neutral party to choose which it was shot with and they'd have to be guessing to get it right. May be one of those photographers that cant meter a scene without an EVF

[@ZaberAnsaryOfficial]

Stupid title haha. Any camera that came out after 2012 is still relevant.

[@TECH360TV]

Yes to some but to others who are caught up in all the marketing hype, they might feel it’s too old.

[@maxwellwellmax878]

Im surprised I didnt see more of the " its not a Mirrorless, Its so heavy, It doesnt have IBIS, Its soooooo big! " commments.

[@TECH360TV]

Well not many cameras can match the performance of this in mirrorless just yet.

[@maxwellwellmax878]

@@TECH360TV actually from what i hear, the Sony A9 runs circles around this lol.

[@drummingspain207]

I've had a 1D mark iv for ages and was considering the jump to the 1DX or even the mkii. However, after MUCH research, I went for the Sony A9 with native 70-200 f2.8. The superior tracking, autofocus with 693 points, eye AF, (animal eye AF as firmware update in the summer), silent shooting, EVF, 1/32000 and flip screen for low / high angle shots were among the reasons for the switch. I will always have a soft spot for Canon as I've been with them for over 25 years but, times change. I wish Canon had produced something like the A9 but sadly, there's no sign of that at present.

[@TECH360TV]

A9 is a fantastic camera and the tech in it is impressive. However I feel like I could take the 1DX into the most extreme situations if needed and not need to worry as opposed to the A9. This is where I hope Sony improves this camera in the future. I think we will see a mirrorless version of the A9 from Canon prob in the next couple years, or after the 2020 Olympics. I’ll be excited to see what they come up with.

[@livingstonss2894]

Dream camera.Amazing color science.

[@screammachineman]

Relevant in a vacuum, yes. The Mark 3 is coming in 2020 though.

[@TECH360TV]

Yes but will prob be evolutionary vs revolutionary. Photographers need to get shots without cameras failing so I’m guessing nothing radically diff

[@tomrose2086]

This is clickbait. Everyone that knows anything about cameras knows that the 1Dx ii will be one of the toughest, most durable, most versatile and high performing cameras around for many years to come.

[@TECH360TV]

Agree. For those that know it’s obvious, but there are many who are thinking about dropping 6k on this camera and want to know if it’s still relevant with all the mirrorless options out there

[@shehxadalishah614]

Cannon EOS- 1Ds Mark II is the Best Camera in the World
