Nobody is talking about this?

Canon is bringing DSLR video to the next level, literally. Today marks the introduction of the EOS 1D Mark IV, the first of this legendary pro line to feature full 1080p HD video. But that's not the only way the camera expands the potential of your photography.

When a split-second can make the difference between a front-page shot and one that sits in your archive, the 1D Mark IV ensures the height of responsiveness. Pushing the limits of ISO and featuring fast new autofocus technologies, the camera is a dream for sports and wildlife photographers.

It features:

* 16.1-megapixel APS-H CMOS sensor (1.3x crop)
* 10fps (bursts up to 121 JPEG or 28 RAW)
* ISO 100-12,800 (extendable to 102,400)
* 1080p HD movie mode
* 3" solid state LCD screen
* Dedicated microprocessor for precision tracking
* AF points that adjust based on camera orientation
* Magnesium alloy body with 76 weather seals
* Integrated cleaning system
* And much more

It wasn't even for a day IMO. That's a nice camera and the 1ds Mark IV should probably follow shortly. Maybe a 30mpx

Here's something that might interest some of you, I have a friend who's a Pro sports shooter, I was chatting to him yesterday and asked he he was going to buy this new Canon as he currently uses the Mk 3's, he told me no and neither would any other pro sports shooter because of the HD video on it, it's banned at all premiership football and rugby games, athletics plus it's already been banned for using at the Olympics, apparently the same goes for the Nikon because of the video side of it.

hmm... It's already hard to get new features on cameras. I hope they will allow them under conditions

The larger sensors allow better video quality and the huge lens collection allow more creativity. Also the photography cameras are mostly cheaper than the pro video cameras. Maybe they don't need to put the video feature on the ds serie. But personally I would not buy it without as I don't want to put more money on professional video camera plus their lenses.

Hi All,

It is not the 1DS series it is the 1D series. It has a smaller sensor only 16 not Like the 1DS family that has full sensors at 22. It is about the same size sensor as the Red One so for that nice fall off you need longer lenses. It is only 16 megabytes for stills.

Best,
Jonathan

This will be interesting to follow. Still photographers banned from using better cameras because it has a movie mode? Just can't wait.

And the freedom of the press gets threatened again: Arenas photo pulled from Getty.

"In recent years, sports leagues have prohibited fans from posting television footage on their Web sites, blocked players from using Twitter during games, and limited how photographs and audio and video clips can be posted on Web sites.

At the same time, leagues have tried to co-opt their opponents by using the same technology themselves. In doing so, they have blurred the lines — at least to many fans — among legitimate news organizations and those that look and feel like news organizations but are actually public relations vehicles for the sports."
