Canon EOS 1D X Digital Camera Review

Usability

Whether you're new to the Canon line or upgrading from the Canon 1Ds/1D Mark IV, the Canon 1D X represents a total level of control to rival any other camera on the market. With 11 controls that can be set up almost any way you like, there are options for tuning the camera to an incredible degree. For our money, though, the improvement in connectivity makes the 1D X a much more useful tool. While the built-in wired LAN isn't going to do much for wildlife photographers, the connectivity and remote shooting controls are going to be a real boon for studio, sports, and news shooters. In the end the 1D X does the very complicated things easily, and the simple everyday things in a no-nonsense manner that is rivaled only by the Nikon D4.
