First person I find in all TH-cam that talk about the disadvantage of the price of the new cards :) (and I've been watching a loooot of new cameras reviews for a while). That's a point maybe someone didn't know and can be regret after! Congrats for the excellent video! Thanks so much. Greetings from Perú!
I knew half way through the video that you were buying it because the approach that you used was what can the camera do for me to enhance what I do, which is a smart way of looking at new gear. I like your honesty when you said, I’m not a video person. Best of luck Vanessa and I hope you have a banner year.
Maybe, if your profession is photography. I know a professional photographer who is using the same equipment he bought 12 years ago. Its never the equipment but how creative the photographer is. One professional photographer traveled cross country by car and all of the photos he shot was from his smart phone. Those images were incredible. That experience wasn't going to make him sell his pro equipment but it make him rethink the idea of upgrading every time a new camera or lens hits the market. Additionally, he discovered the great advances in camera technology phone makers are including in their products. He now uses his smart phone in casual situations where he would normally use a DSLR. Naturally for assignments he's going to use pro equipment.
Oh absolutely. I always say people are masters of their tools not the other way around. However, when a tool has capabilities that allow you to be more creative because you’re not worrying about dealing with high ISO’s or, in the case with this camera especially, The insane advancement in the auto focus system, that’s a serious advantage. Eliminating creative thought barriers by minimizing equipment considerations frees up your mind to be a better photographer in a lot of ways
Thank you! Your Video is the most usefull comparison between mk2-3 i found. So the 1Dx m3 is sharper, faster, more focus points, meta-data oberride and silance shutter is great. I have the canon R6 and the 1Dx m2 and the quality difference is huge. I think the 1Dx is about 20% sharper. How much „better“ is the image quality between 1DX m2 and m3 ? Maybe 10%? Thank you for your great content
Hey Venessa, I just want to say thanks for an awesome review of the camera, and for sharing your experiences with us. I would also like to let you know that I am a videographer, so your input in that department is very much appreciated. I would love to add this wonderful camera to my kit. Again, nice review and thank you:-)!
Great video! Okay, there were some sample pictures here where the Mark II was definitely sharper. I have just bought myself a used Mark II and the price was still hiiiigh. I think that they both do an excellent job. I miss the full touch screen on the Mark II. This annoys me because I have a 5D MK4 and when you get used to the touch screen, it's pure luxury.
I Definitely didn’t notice a sharper difference between either of them, was likely just the processing. Only reason I say the 1dxiii is sharper is because it’s more likely to nail focus with the AF tech in it 😊
I've been reading the Advanced User Guide for the 1D X mkIII and I can't seem to find where you set the face/head tracking for viewfinder shooting. I can find the option for Live-view. Any advice on that?
You did such a good job at explaining the differences between the cameras with the pictures from both cameras side by side, to see how big or small the difference can be, and whether it will be worth for someone to upgrade. Great video.
I own two Canon 5DIII's and feel the need to upgrade. I'm torn between a second hand 1DX II and a new Eos R6. What would you recommend ? I shoot nearly everything apart from sports : Concerts, weddings, indoor dogshows but also landscapes, old buildings, nature, macrophotography ... I don't use my canon 5DIII's above Iso 2000 or 3200 unless I need to. In my opinion they are no good at high iso. And they only take 5 pics/sec and have a slow autofocus. Apart from that, I love them
Well Done Vanessa. I’ve been thinking about getting this camera mainly for events. But one thing that worries me is that canon confirmed stopping their EF lenses. What tells me that in the next model we could see an RF version of the 1DX MIV.
Canon have NOT said they are stopping EF lenses!!! It was mis-reported. They said that they are focusing their lense developement on the RF mount, but are still developing EF mount lenses.
Paul Walsh Actually, they said they're focused on RF unless the market demands more EF… So they DO have intention to slow down or halt EF lenses, but they'll come out with more IF THE MARKET DEMANDS IT.
Paul Walsh they did say that they are not planning to continue the EF production as the RF is the main focus. Unless market demands it. But once they have cover all basics with the RF they most likely kill future releases with EF Mount. It makes sense for canon but not to some of us that have many of them EF lenses.
Hello Vanessa Joy thanks so much for all your amazing videos and information on Canon gear I absolutely enjoyed watching most of your amazing work thus far. Thanks for sharing your amazing work and keep those awesome videos coming, and I believe I’ll be purchasing that Canon 1DX Markiii
Vanessa, for wedding photography what lens would you advise to get next for someone with the 50mm 1.4 and a 70-200 with macro abilities. I was thinking something more wide but idk.
That face and eye detection and touch af-on button alone is worth to get it and if only they also have IBIS. I would never get the R5 and R3. As the build is a tank and no mirrorless can match to it.
This is beyond my scope. I'm really enjoying the "beginner" videos and I'm using a 7D right now. MY dilemma is stepping up to a full-frame as a hobbyist. Do I buy a 6D or find a good deal on a used 5D III or IV. Or do I punt, save a bit more money, and go with an R series? Any of those will be better than the 7D I'm using now. I'm thinking baby steps, and as I grow and need more camera to keep stepping up.
I see nobody has replied to your comment, so I'll offer an anecdote: my experience in the transition to full-frame was rather underwhelming. The industry would have you think full-frame cameras offer a revelatory shooting experience, but I still enjoy my Canon 70D just as much as my full-frame camera. I'm happy to own a full-frame camera, but I can't say I feel initiated into any exclusive group. I have similar feelings towards the mirrorless vs. DSLR debate. DSLR's are still just great fun to shoot with. It's also worth noting that your 7D is not at all a beginner camera. It's a very capable tool, and I'd bet you're making some great photos with it.
Cfastexpress is less expensive that the venerable CFast2.0 ... so happy about that! Had to buy new pocket wizard with the 1DX2... any thought on that (looks like you were using off camera flash /lights.)
mikewinburn i in used to use pocket wizards but was frustrated with the misfires and errors (this was a while ago so I’m sure they’ve improved). I did use both cameras with profoto lights and triggers and they were no problem. Performed admirably :)
Vanessa Joy - got ya... yes, my PWs w canon speed lights...extremely frustrating for sure... however w my Elinchrom set ups were pretty flawless... but yeah, agreed. Glad to hear worked well w proto rx/tx set up. Thanks
I think the 1dx mk iii is a great camera if I didn't have one but also the review is a bit biased to promoting the newer camera. My 1Dx mk2 in 2022 is doing great! The 4k 60p is gorgeous and also the 1080p 120fps for closeups is second to none as "feeling goes" becase although not nrearly as sharp as the 4k it gives that cinematic feel that is hard to replicate and it looks veeeeery natural, more than anything I have seen on my A7s III 4k 120fps. It's just magic what the 1dx mk2 can do.
Thank you for this helpful video~ I’m trying to decide between 1DX Mk3 and R5. I most shoot photos and not much video. I usually shoot events, so very dark places and people moving fast. With my 6Dii, 5 out of 10 shots are blurred & can’t use them. If money is not an issue, which one do u think is better?
Vanessa ..mines on pre-order. So many new options. These monsters have turned into editing machines as well as cameras!!!! I downloaded the white paper for the 1dx3. Looks like i've got some homework for myself. :)))
I’ve used a 1DXII the past couple years. Holding out for the R5 now I think, or at least waiting to see what other video options are available on it. Really need 4K 120fps which isnt on the new 1DXIII. Also the articulating screen will be very useful for me and my shooting.
I agree, the R5 is going to have almost double the megapixels as the new Mark III. I doubt it will have anywhere near the battery life. Knowing Canon, it wouldn't surprise me if the cannibalize the 1Dx Mark III for the new "mainstream" R5. The 5D II and 5D IV were Canon's highest sales, so it would make sense for them to go big with the R5 to secure market share.
As far as clients noticing, I should mention that I am a sports photographer, not a wedding. We sell our images onsite. But anyway, my clients haven't noticed a change since I upgraded to the original 7D. (I went from film Canon K2 to Canon 650 to my first DSLR, Canon 300D (original Rebel) to Canon 40D, to Canon 7D (they noticed) to Canon 7D mk ii to Canon 5D mk iv)
@@VanessaJoy No problem! I actually just posted a video in four parts on my youtube channel about making money as a sports photographer (some have asked what we do). Please have a look
Great review! What are your thoughts in the up-coming R5? The specs that Canon confirmed a few days ago are insane even though they were mostly focused on the video side of things. Anyway, the IDX-III represents a substancial upgrade over the previous model, I really liked the way you focused more on the impact that those changes introduced in the Mark III will have over the workflow and the end result. Keep up the good workd and stay safe!
Tnx for a informative and interesting video. You are both beautiful and talented, if you dont mind me saying so. And to answer your question, I am probably not as skilled as you, but yes, I need new gear. Total nerd on that one :) Looking forward to the r5 and rf-objectives.
Thanks for what you do; especially for this topic. I have the original Canon 1 DX and chose not to upgrade to the 1DX Mark II. Do you think upgrading from the original to the Mark III is worth it? Or do you recommend stay with what I have? #thoughts
While I’m a Nikon shooter great concepts if you should or shouldn’t upgrade regardless of camera brand. Also well explained on the functional uses between those two body’s.
Vanessa, it was wonderful meeting you at WPPI in Las Vegas. As you may know, I was born autistic but that did not stop me from perusing a career in photography. If you want to know more, I’m on instagram, Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr. I hope to connect with you again in the future. Good luck to you...Mike C
I really want a 1DX3, but that 20 MP, in 2020, is a show stopper for me. If that were like 45 MP, at say 12 FPS in the VF, then I’d be having a really hard time. And for me, it is not even about need, it’s about if I want to spring for it or not. Life is short so you have got to have gear that helps you get the image while enjoying it too. I 1Dx3 can definitely help me get images I could not get otherwise, but I’d be fine if I didn’t get those particular images, I think.
Vanessa Joy Wildlife! I have several Canon bodies including 3 FF and 2 crops. My FF bodies are kinda slow, so for certain things, like birds, that is a problem. The crops are good in great light, the FFs in low light. Three of them are 30+ MP, which is a big pro for me. Oh, I learned some interesting things about the 1DX3 from your review! Keep up the great work.
I don't know I would be hesitant. I upgraded from the 7D MK II and my Canon 5D MK IV is a lemon. The camera has excessive battery drain. I took about 49 photos and the battery was around 52% (for every ten photos I take I lose about ten percent of the battery) I used the same batteries on my 7D MK II and there was no issue at all (242 and the battery had 70% left) I took the camera in as it is still under warranty. they kept it for a week and told me it was repaired. I took the camera out yesterday and it was the same thing 49 photos and the battery was drained to 62%. They are now saying that all three of my lenses, SD, and Flash Cards, and three batteries need to be left off and tested even though they work fine on the 7D MII. I told them that was not possible so they said they will not replace the camera. Clearly they can't find the power problem so they are trying to blame the problem elsewhere. I dont know who can afford to replace all their batteries and lenses so the camera will work properly. Although Canon products are generally outstanding beware they will not back a defective product. Edit
that sounds pretty strange but they're right, they need to test with all of those things to see where the problem is. Kind of hard to figure it out without those things. It's not about those things working on the 7D, it's about how they're communicating with the 5div. without testing that they won't be able to tell.
@@VanessaJoy I know but the reality of cameras is you will use different batteries and lenses, If my 35MM, 50MM, 24-105, and 70-200 all work great on the 7D Even if I did bring all batteries, and lenses in what could they possibly tell me?I cant possibly afford to buy separate lens for the 5D MK IV. Could you afford to drop off all your lenses and batteries for a week? This camera is 6 months old
I think they’d be able to tell what part of the 5div isn’t working and fix it. Not needing to buy anything new. Are you a CPS member? You should be able to get a free rental or two so you can keep shooting.
that is a great idea! but in a nut shell, I have a second shooter I trust to cover everything, I have an assistant to help, and I do things REALLY fast so there's not really much downtime where I'd be shooting anyway :-)
Vanessa Joy thank you for your answer. I appreciate the time. May I ask you about your tattoo? It’s with Hebrew letters. I am a religious Jew and wonder what your tattoo says. Thank you
Great video review, Vanessa. An interesting use for a 1DXMIII. It's nice to see the new features, but $6500 is a lot to spend on a wedding camera, especially one with only 20mpx. A Sony A9 is $4000 less and has 20fps, silent shooting, eye autofocus, and a flip screen. Plus it is a lot lighter. For a thousand more I can buy a Sony A7R4 with 61mpx. However, if you do a lot of weddings the 1DX is a solid workhorse and Canon has a lot of lenses available. For me, I find that the newer mirrorless cameras are a lot easier to use for wedding style portraiture. Their lighter weight, eye autofocus, and flip screen saves my back and lets me get amazing shots without contortion. Do I need a new camera? Not really, but it's always nice to get a new lens. Unfortunately, the 1DXMIII will not be able to use the new Canon R lenses like the spectacular 85mm F1.2. It will be interesting to see what the Canon R5 brings to the table.
Hi Ms Joy thank you very much but I am bring in big time fund$ so I will have to want till I can save up for a Canon 1D Mark II which will work out better for me I am using Canon 1D mark III which for now is working out okay for me.
"Do You REALLY Need to Upgrade your Camera?" Well, the answer is No! All cameras made in the last 4 years are capable of outstanding images, irregardless of sensor size. Just use whatever best suits your needs and if the ergonomics suits you, and enjoy taking photos. Camera manufacturers love fanboys as they make you spend on unnecessary upgrades.
That’s true. Almost in the same way that you technically don’t need a new car until it actually dies and definitely don’t need all the new stuff in it.
richard karamel thanks for your feedback. I am a published bird photographer and have the 1D mark IV that I have been using for years. Works great but getting old!! I’m debating a used but clean 1Dx II versus the huge cost of the new version. I think for birds in flight and sports that I shoot the new one is a better choice. If I can find the version 2 less than 3 grand, it may be a good deal. What do you think for my purposes? Money aside. Thanks
Wow, I don’t know how you did it, but you made a top of the line camera look like a Rebel in comparison to the new one!! Lol great job. Question: how do you like the 85mm f 1.4 compared to the old sluggish 1.2. Do you miss the larger aperture at all? I’m debating to upgrade my 1.2. Thanks!
Well the 1DXII is mine, I bought it years ago. the 1DXIII was just borrowed so I had to return it, but I hear Adorama starts shipping this week so I'm ordering mine now! adorama.rfvk.net/B3gK4
Nice summary. I must say I like many of the small things like being able to send the images to our phones. I hear the ISO performance should be better, have you noticed any difference?
@@VanessaJoy that is great to know. We will use it for wildlife so always helps that it is better when it is dark (just got back from filming penguin chicks!). Also we are very interested in using the video functionality as a B or C camera so the high resolution and the raw images will be great. But ouch, it will eat memory cards for breakfast.
Like the question said… does your client knows the difference?. No, your client is so focused on her own world they will not even notice if you have a new camera. Now as a photographer, would you tell the difference?. Yes, of course some photographers thinks having the latest and the greatest will improve you photography. Coming from the 1dx and renting the 1dx m3 it did not improve my photography and to be honest it made it more complicated. Did i used all the new features of the 1dx mark iii?. No, i didn’t. But i realise that it will make a big hole in my bank account, and thats the only thing that i will always remember for the rest of my life.
Bc most of the 1dxiii shots are sooc and the others are edited. Just gotta look past the color tint one way or another and look at the actual image quality.
Vanessa Joy You did a good job but hard to compare image quality on TH-cam a lot of the 1dxii shots looked better. I’m sure if you had the actual files side by side it would be a different story.
schumif1champ it is difficult but this wasn’t a field test it was practical use test, which is what I do here. :) I’m sure you’ll find some TH-camrs out there who put the two cameras side-by-side, which the same lenses and take the same shots with the same settings, I’m not them. I shoot real jobs that don’t allow time for such things. Plus I had the camera so early that I couldn’t even process the files the same way so there was no point in trying that anyway. If I ever do field test comparisons I’ll label them that was so you can find them. I DEFINITELY think they’re valuable.
FPS=You know, that is something that I CONSTANTLY have to tell my crew: Do not use burst mode! We sell onsite and have no time to edit or delete photos before the teams come up to our view laptops. They don't want to scroll thru frames on a movie. I guess this is because I went to school back in the days of film, but I try to get the image in one shot. I don't see why everyone is using burst mode. I mean, if I was shooting for a newspaper, I wouldn't want to go thru 1000+ photos to find 2 or 3 to publish! What I want out of a camera is a fast and accurate auto focus, good low noise in high ISO, and controls that are intuitive. I personally don't need video, or most of the bells and whistles that come with modern cameras. I have done a few weddings, and even there, I don't think most of the things cameras tout are really germane. I mean resolution-my clients aren't printing billboards, so a reasonable amount of megapixels would be fine. FPS-I mean, yes, you want to shoot the kiss, and so forth, but I don't think anyone needs 20FPS to do that!
These 2 Canon Models have virtually ' unnoticeable ' differences in 'stills' image quality. The examples Vanessa show are with different lenses, different focal lengths, different lenses settings so nothing is comparable ! a ' pointless review ' just don't get it ... if your going to compare models use the exact same lens etc., and side by side comparisons. In the real World you wont't be able to see-any-difference, just you will hear one and not the other in a client-room-environment. I know: because I have both Models!
I am on the Canon 1DX Mark II and primarily for Wildlife. And no, I won't upgrade. I am not into video, so I don't really need the new video functions. And I also don's use Liv View for my work. So then just the DLSR functions are left and there is not much improvement over the 1DX Mark II. Yes, the buffer is nice. But already the buffer of the 1DX Mark II is more than enough for me, it was never a limiter for my work. And boring 20MP again. Not even the technology of the sensor has been improved, this just old CMOS tech from 5 years ago. No stacking. No BSI. Basically a carry over from 1DX Mark II. So no. I won't get the 1DX Mark III. I will wait on the mirrorless version of the 1DX, then maybe I add this tool.
But have you tried the new focusing system? That’s the kicker for me... though if you’re thinking of going mirrorless then I imagine you’ll see it or something like it eventually
@@VanessaJoy Yes, Autofocus is improved what is good, no doubt. But for my Wildlife work I would appreciate seeing (in Autofocus) something similar what you can get with the Sony A9 and this is a Lock-On function. This is for Wildlife simply absolutely amazing. You lock the target and the Autofocus follows it with stunning accuracy. I hope something like this or similar is coming with the rumored professions version of the Canon EOS R. And there is one thing with DSLR's wich bothers really especially when you work wit super long telephoto lenses (600mm 4.0 and beyond) and that is the AF Microadjustment. What a hell, any small deviation from the optimal calibration setting of lens and camera is magnified due to the long focal length resulting into blurs. It takes you a long time to get lens and camera calibrated. Calibration software can help but it is still a pain and you know, every time the image is not 100% sharp you have the bad feeling the calibrations sucks a bit. With a mirrorless camera this isn't any issue as you do the focusing directly on the sensor. So that's why I am eager to see the upcoming professional mirrorless version of the 1DX Mark III from Canon. For me the overall functions of the 1DX Mark III is giving me an outlook on what is coming from Canon with their professional mirrorless camera.
Yeah that sounds like what happens with the focus system in this camera. It’ll follow the subject - which is AMAZING For me with weddings since I like my couples moving around a lot. All good advances!
@@VanessaJoy Well, this I need to see if with OVF. With Live View I know they have a kind of this function but in Wildlife you usually don't use Live View as this hardly make sense together with a 600mm 4.0 Prime :) So 95% of my shots are with the OVF. And here such functions does not exist as far I could see.
Stefan1968ful yeah I’m AI servo you have face and head detection so you set it and it’ll track... I believe - when I get it back in my hands I can confirm
@@VanessaJoy Yeah i know i know, but you could have just, ya know, lended it from them for an unspecified amount of time ;) They probably wouldn't notice ;D
Question I shoot beauty and fashion I hate mirrorless and the 5d mk iv is a good camera but not a beast… So would you recommend the 1dx mk ii or iii for what I do
@@VanessaJoy real camera= not my phone lol. well my ZTE $40 prepaid phone has manual mode in camera. ISO, white balance/Kelvin, exposure. Which is pretty cool I thought, but it's not a real camera . I also use a action camera go pro knock off that works really good for my videos and what I do. I want more now, you all got me hooked. All I see is beautiful pictures I want to take. It's crazy new world now. 😀😁👍
I upgraded from 5D3 to 1DX2 in 2016 then I regreted cause the image quality not as what I expected. Then in 2017, I bought Fujifilm GFX50S. When I go wildlife shooting, IDX2 does the job, when I go landscaping or portrait GFX get well done. There is no reason to upgrade to 1DX3 now, since both current systems are quite bulky, i am thinking of add 1 new system to my camera family - Leica M10R.🥳
At $6500, this is for the professional or independently wealthy individual. With a 70-200 version 3, you're talking close to $8500. Nice if you get afford it.
The Canon 1dx mk3 uses two CF cards instead of the 1 CF and 1 CFast 2.0 cards which is much faster so I don't see how the buffer on the mk3 doesn't fill up quicker when I use my 16 fps. Personally I'll keep sticking with my 1DX MK II and 5DSR rather than blow thousands more on a MK III Canon is already planning to abandon as far as support goes. In my book the MK III is the latest and greatest dodo due to Canon's infatuation with mirrorless.
You could have been benefitting from the silent shutter, amazing fast tracking AF,/eye AF, fast shutter speeds etc that make for the better user and client experience that you said are so important to you for the last nearly three years if you'd had the Sony A9, for a lot less money! :-P
@@VanessaJoy Also the A9 is only 5 FPS. And there were no pro tele lenses for the A9 until recently. Also the Sony 600 and 400 2.8 are much worse IQ imo.
@@VanessaJoy I order from amazon.com my aunt is a green card holder . But it takes a lot of time bring in south asia cuz every single time she goes there to visit. I give money to order my fav product . Yes expensive and lots of time but 100 percent original.

Thanks for this! Practical insights about choosing a camera with features that add value to the photography that each of us do.
Glad you like!
Thank you! Your Video is the most usefull comparison between mk2-3 i found.
So the 1Dx m3 is sharper, faster, more focus points, meta-data oberride and silance shutter is great.
I have the canon R6 and the 1Dx m2 and the quality difference is huge. I think the 1Dx is about 20% sharper.
How much „better“ is the image quality between 1DX m2 and m3 ? Maybe 10%?
Thank you for your great content

My pleasure 😇
Did you end up upgrading from the 1DX to mkiii? And was it worth it, is it noticeably better?
You did such a good job at explaining the differences between the cameras with the pictures from both cameras side by side, to see how big or small the difference can be, and whether it will be worth for someone to upgrade. Great video.

I don't use my canon 5DIII's above Iso 2000 or 3200 unless I need to. In my opinion they are no good at high iso. And they only take 5 pics/sec and have a slow autofocus. Apart from that, I love them
To me it's just a hobby, I don't want to spend more than 2500 € on a body
What about the R7?
@@VanessaJoy Thanks ! I'll check it out
Very VERY good video ... nicely done 😊
Thx 😊
Good points, clarity adjustment is missed out by most reviewer.
it's such a great feature!!!
Well Done Vanessa. I’ve been thinking about getting this camera mainly for events. But one thing that worries me is that canon confirmed stopping their EF lenses. What tells me that in the next model we could see an RF version of the 1DX MIV.
Oh that’s an interesting thought, though I believe the physics of the rf lenses make it impossible to work with a mirrored camera.
Canon have NOT said they are stopping EF lenses!!! It was mis-reported. They said that they are focusing their lense developement on the RF mount, but are still developing EF mount lenses.
Paul Walsh Actually, they said they're focused on RF unless the market demands more EF… So they DO have intention to slow down or halt EF lenses, but they'll come out with more IF THE MARKET DEMANDS IT.
Paul Walsh they did say that they are not planning to continue the EF production as the RF is the main focus. Unless market demands it. But once they have cover all basics with the RF they most likely kill future releases with EF Mount. It makes sense for canon but not to some of us that have many of them EF lenses.
They haven’t stopped their EF lens 🤦♂
Hello Vanessa Joy thanks so much for all your amazing videos and information on Canon gear I absolutely enjoyed watching most of your amazing work thus far. Thanks for sharing your amazing work and keep those awesome videos coming, and I believe I’ll be purchasing that Canon 1DX Markiii
if you get yours before I get mine I'll totally fight you for it ;-)
Vanessa Joy 😂😂😂😂 ok 👸🏽
Your pictures are awesome! Subscribed!
thank you!!!! welcome aboard :-)
Thank You This Video Really Helped Bless You👌👍🙏
So happy to hear it ☺️
in you examples their is a much cooler bluish hue on skintones with DXIII? is that due to different WB tones or is it rendering cooler overall?
Could be a little bit of both ☺️
Vanessa, for wedding photography what lens would you advise to get next for someone with the 50mm 1.4 and a 70-200 with macro abilities. I was thinking something more wide but idk.
Yes I'd definitely get like a 24-70 2.8 if I were you :-) there's a rebate on it rn at Adorama: adorama.rfvk.net/D6oQq
That face and eye detection and touch af-on button alone is worth to get it and if only they also have IBIS. I would never get the R5 and R3. As the build is a tank and no mirrorless can match to it.
thank you for this!! great review!
My pleasure 😇
Vanessa, some people have spoken of black spots on the sensor. Have you experienced this issue?
Nope not at all
Thanks for the rapid response.
This is beyond my scope. I'm really enjoying the "beginner" videos and I'm using a 7D right now. MY dilemma is stepping up to a full-frame as a hobbyist. Do I buy a 6D or find a good deal on a used 5D III or IV. Or do I punt, save a bit more money, and go with an R series? Any of those will be better than the 7D I'm using now.
I'm thinking baby steps, and as I grow and need more camera to keep stepping up.
I see nobody has replied to your comment, so I'll offer an anecdote: my experience in the transition to full-frame was rather underwhelming. The industry would have you think full-frame cameras offer a revelatory shooting experience, but I still enjoy my Canon 70D just as much as my full-frame camera. I'm happy to own a full-frame camera, but I can't say I feel initiated into any exclusive group. I have similar feelings towards the mirrorless vs. DSLR debate. DSLR's are still just great fun to shoot with. It's also worth noting that your 7D is not at all a beginner camera. It's a very capable tool, and I'd bet you're making some great photos with it.
Cfastexpress is less expensive that the venerable CFast2.0 ... so happy about that! Had to buy new pocket wizard with the 1DX2... any thought on that (looks like you were using off camera flash /lights.)
mikewinburn i in used to use pocket wizards but was frustrated with the misfires and errors (this was a while ago so I’m sure they’ve improved). I did use both cameras with profoto lights and triggers and they were no problem. Performed admirably :)
Vanessa Joy - got ya... yes, my PWs w canon speed lights...extremely frustrating for sure... however w my Elinchrom set ups were pretty flawless... but yeah, agreed. Glad to hear worked well w proto rx/tx set up. Thanks
I think the 1dx mk iii is a great camera if I didn't have one but also the review is a bit biased to promoting the newer camera. My 1Dx mk2 in 2022 is doing great! The 4k 60p is gorgeous and also the 1080p 120fps for closeups is second to none as "feeling goes" becase although not nrearly as sharp as the 4k it gives that cinematic feel that is hard to replicate and it looks veeeeery natural, more than anything I have seen on my A7s III 4k 120fps. It's just magic what the 1dx mk2 can do.
Thank you for this helpful video~ I’m trying to decide between 1DX Mk3 and R5. I most shoot photos and not much video. I usually shoot events, so very dark places and people moving fast. With my 6Dii, 5 out of 10 shots are blurred & can’t use them. If money is not an issue, which one do u think is better?
The R5 :)
Vanessa Joy thank you! It’s such a hard decision as I have a strong bond with DSLR system.
Vanessa ..mines on pre-order. So many new options. These monsters have turned into editing machines as well as cameras!!!! I downloaded the white paper for the 1dx3. Looks like i've got some homework for myself. :)))
soooo lucky!!! you're going to love it :-)
Nice review, is it just me or the 1DxIII photos look softer than the 1Dx2 zoomed in at 400%? Lol
I’ve used a 1DXII the past couple years. Holding out for the R5 now I think, or at least waiting to see what other video options are available on it. Really need 4K 120fps which isnt on the new 1DXIII. Also the articulating screen will be very useful for me and my shooting.
I do like the articulating screen :-)
I agree, the R5 is going to have almost double the megapixels as the new Mark III. I doubt it will have anywhere near the battery life. Knowing Canon, it wouldn't surprise me if the cannibalize the 1Dx Mark III for the new "mainstream" R5. The 5D II and 5D IV were Canon's highest sales, so it would make sense for them to go big with the R5 to secure market share.
As far as clients noticing, I should mention that I am a sports photographer, not a wedding. We sell our images onsite. But anyway, my clients haven't noticed a change since I upgraded to the original 7D. (I went from film Canon K2 to Canon 650 to my first DSLR, Canon 300D (original Rebel) to Canon 40D, to Canon 7D (they noticed) to Canon 7D mk ii to Canon 5D mk iv)
Thanks for sharing!
@@VanessaJoy No problem! I actually just posted a video in four parts on my youtube channel about making money as a sports photographer (some have asked what we do). Please have a look
Thanks for the great video !~
My pleasure 😇
Excellent info with real scenario
that's what I'm going for!
Great review! What are your thoughts in the up-coming R5? The specs that Canon confirmed a few days ago are insane even though they were mostly focused on the video side of things. Anyway, the IDX-III represents a substancial upgrade over the previous model, I really liked the way you focused more on the impact that those changes introduced in the Mark III will have over the workflow and the end result. Keep up the good workd and stay safe!
We shall see! I can't wait to get that R5 in my hands!
@@VanessaJoy I can't wait until you make a review about it!
Tnx for a informative and interesting video. You are both beautiful and talented, if you dont mind me saying so. And to answer your question, I am probably not as skilled as you, but yes, I need new gear. Total nerd on that one :) Looking forward to the r5 and rf-objectives.
I'm looking forward to it as well!
Thanks for what you do; especially for this topic. I have the original Canon 1 DX and chose not to upgrade to the 1DX Mark II. Do you think upgrading from the original to the Mark III is worth it? Or do you recommend stay with what I have?
#thoughts
OMG yes - it's LIGHT YEARS more advanced than the original 1DX. Seriously... if you love the 1DX line like I do I'd snag this in a heartbeat
Ya ordering that 512GB CFExpress hurt a little not gonna lie haha. I bought it as a bcam for my canon cinema camera :)
Haha yeah that did hurt a smidge
What the mark 3 have built n WiFi? Are you sure about that. Because that’s not what I heard from other viewers?
there's no wifi....lol
While I’m a Nikon shooter great concepts if you should or shouldn’t upgrade regardless of camera brand. Also well explained on the functional uses between those two body’s.
glad you found it useful! :-) thanks for swinging by
michael p ha Um yeah... #teamcanon.
Does anyone think the 1dx mkii will get another firmware update?
I’ll be in Las Vegas on the 23rd. Hope to meet you
I get there the 24th - are you attending WPPI???
Vanessa Joy yes. Greetings from Chicagoland, Illinois!
I am looking forward to meeting you in person
Vanessa, it was wonderful meeting you at WPPI in Las Vegas. As you may know, I was born autistic but that did not stop me from perusing a career in photography. If you want to know more, I’m on instagram, Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr. I hope to connect with you again in the future. Good luck to you...Mike C
So how about jumping from the 5d mk iv to the 1dx mk iii?
very different feel and form factor. Better ISO and focusing capability for sure. That would make a good comparison vid
What about image quality?
I really want a 1DX3, but that 20 MP, in 2020, is a show stopper for me. If that were like 45 MP, at say 12 FPS in the VF, then I’d be having a really hard time. And for me, it is not even about need, it’s about if I want to spring for it or not. Life is short so you have got to have gear that helps you get the image while enjoying it too. I 1Dx3 can definitely help me get images I could not get otherwise, but I’d be fine if I didn’t get those particular images, I think.
Anthony Martin interesting thoughts. What type of photography do you shoot?
Vanessa Joy Wildlife! I have several Canon bodies including 3 FF and 2 crops. My FF bodies are kinda slow, so for certain things, like birds, that is a problem. The crops are good in great light, the FFs in low light. Three of them are 30+ MP, which is a big pro for me. Oh, I learned some interesting things about the 1DX3 from your review! Keep up the great work.
Anthony Martin fun!! Yeah I could see you wanting a fast burst there :)
but do you HAVE to use live-view to use full silent shutter?
I believe so??
Yes because otherwise you'll have the sound of the mirror going up and down
@@mika2666 lol I feel like I just had a blond moment
I heard a comment that the mark 3 isn't as sharp. Do you find that to be true for stills?
no, I find the opposite actually with all the new AF tech in it
I don't know I would be hesitant. I upgraded from the 7D MK II and my Canon 5D MK IV is a lemon. The camera has excessive battery drain. I took about 49 photos and the battery was around 52% (for every ten photos I take I lose about ten percent of the battery) I used the same batteries on my 7D MK II and there was no issue at all (242 and the battery had 70% left) I took the camera in as it is still under warranty. they kept it for a week and told me it was repaired. I took the camera out yesterday and it was the same thing 49 photos and the battery was drained to 62%. They are now saying that all three of my lenses, SD, and Flash Cards, and three batteries need to be left off and tested even though they work fine on the 7D MII. I told them that was not possible so they said they will not replace the camera. Clearly they can't find the power problem so they are trying to blame the problem elsewhere. I dont know who can afford to replace all their batteries and lenses so the camera will work properly. Although Canon products are generally outstanding beware they will not back a defective product.
Edit
that sounds pretty strange but they're right, they need to test with all of those things to see where the problem is. Kind of hard to figure it out without those things. It's not about those things working on the 7D, it's about how they're communicating with the 5div. without testing that they won't be able to tell.
@@VanessaJoy I know but the reality of cameras is you will use different batteries and lenses, If my 35MM, 50MM, 24-105, and 70-200 all work great on the 7D Even if I did bring all batteries, and lenses in what could they possibly tell me?I cant possibly afford to buy separate lens for the 5D MK IV. Could you afford to drop off all your lenses and batteries for a week? This camera is 6 months old
and thanks for letting me vent. I have had to cancel 5 shoots
I think they’d be able to tell what part of the 5div isn’t working and fix it. Not needing to buy anything new. Are you a CPS member? You should be able to get a free rental or two so you can keep shooting.
Vanessa Joy Unfortunately I am not. Thanks again, it’s disheartening to spend so much and have problems like this in first year
But why are the comparison pictures all use different lens and settings? 💀
Bc I’m not a TH-cam robot camera reviewer and I use these on real jobs that ppl pay me to do 💀
@@VanessaJoy oh dear. But thank you! 😊
The 1dx mkiii is incredible. Upgrade if you can find one and can afford it. Great camera. Amazing video on it.
preach! definitely love it to death
I would like too buy a camera which one is the best one mark ii or mark iii

@@VanessaJoy am watched But am Confused tell me...dude
I’m buying the mark iii :)

Maybe you can explain how you have time to do stuff on your phone during an event. ? Thy for your videos and for being yourself.
that is a great idea! but in a nut shell, I have a second shooter I trust to cover everything, I have an assistant to help, and I do things REALLY fast so there's not really much downtime where I'd be shooting anyway :-)
Vanessa Joy thank you for your answer. I appreciate the time. May I ask you about your tattoo? It’s with Hebrew letters. I am a religious Jew and wonder what your tattoo says. Thank you
Great video review, Vanessa. An interesting use for a 1DXMIII. It's nice to see the new features, but $6500 is a lot to spend on a wedding camera, especially one with only 20mpx. A Sony A9 is $4000 less and has 20fps, silent shooting, eye autofocus, and a flip screen. Plus it is a lot lighter. For a thousand more I can buy a Sony A7R4 with 61mpx. However, if you do a lot of weddings the 1DX is a solid workhorse and Canon has a lot of lenses available. For me, I find that the newer mirrorless cameras are a lot easier to use for wedding style portraiture. Their lighter weight, eye autofocus, and flip screen saves my back and lets me get amazing shots without contortion. Do I need a new camera? Not really, but it's always nice to get a new lens. Unfortunately, the 1DXMIII will not be able to use the new Canon R lenses like the spectacular 85mm F1.2. It will be interesting to see what the Canon R5 brings to the table.
Can’t wait to see what the R5 brings either!
Hi Ms Joy thank you very much but I am bring in big time fund$ so I will have to want till I can save up for a Canon 1D Mark II which will work out better for me I am using Canon 1D mark III which for now is working out okay for me.
Do you :)
"Do You REALLY Need to Upgrade your Camera?" Well, the answer is No! All cameras made in the last 4 years are capable of outstanding images, irregardless of sensor size. Just use whatever best suits your needs and if the ergonomics suits you, and enjoy taking photos. Camera manufacturers love fanboys as they make you spend on unnecessary upgrades.
That’s true. Almost in the same way that you technically don’t need a new car until it actually dies and definitely don’t need all the new stuff in it.
richard karamel thanks for your feedback. I am a published bird photographer and have the 1D mark IV that I have been using for years. Works great but getting old!! I’m debating a used but clean 1Dx II versus the huge cost of the new version. I think for birds in flight and sports that I shoot the new one is a better choice. If I can find the version 2 less than 3 grand, it may be a good deal. What do you think for my purposes? Money aside. Thanks
Yes I do I desire the MK III more now
Oh yeah? Why’s that?
Wow, I don’t know how you did it, but you made a top of the line camera look like a Rebel in comparison to the new one!! Lol great job. Question: how do you like the 85mm f 1.4 compared to the old sluggish 1.2. Do you miss the larger aperture at all? I’m debating to upgrade my 1.2. Thanks!
The 1.4 is definitely my preference. Way faster
Do you get to keep then both @vanessajoy
Well the 1DXII is mine, I bought it years ago. the 1DXIII was just borrowed so I had to return it, but I hear Adorama starts shipping this week so I'm ordering mine now! adorama.rfvk.net/B3gK4
I just met a guy that has both and he said it’s not worth the money or the upgrade
Well no not since the R3 came out…
@@VanessaJoy to expensive
Nice summary. I must say I like many of the small things like being able to send the images to our phones. I hear the ISO performance should be better, have you noticed any difference?
HUGE difference. there's a few side-by-side comparisons of ISO for you in this video
@@VanessaJoy that is great to know. We will use it for wildlife so always helps that it is better when it is dark (just got back from filming penguin chicks!). Also we are very interested in using the video functionality as a B or C camera so the high resolution and the raw images will be great. But ouch, it will eat memory cards for breakfast.
Andreas Öberg haha so comes the territory with amazing/big files
Like the question said… does your client knows the difference?. No, your client is so focused on her own world they will not even notice if you have a new camera. Now as a photographer, would you tell the difference?. Yes, of course some photographers thinks having the latest and the greatest will improve you photography. Coming from the 1dx and renting the 1dx m3 it did not improve my photography and to be honest it made it more complicated. Did i used all the new features of the 1dx mark iii?. No, i didn’t. But i realise that it will make a big hole in my bank account, and thats the only thing that i will always remember for the rest of my life.
Which one is the better?
Did you watch the video?
@@VanessaJoy yes. I did
Law Lah lol I told you the answer to your question at the end :)
@@VanessaJoy So which one did you like?
Law Lah 1dXiii :)
Why does the color on 1dxii look so much better especially the white balance
Bc most of the 1dxiii shots are sooc and the others are edited. Just gotta look past the color tint one way or another and look at the actual image quality.
Vanessa Joy You did a good job but hard to compare image quality on TH-cam a lot of the 1dxii shots looked better. I’m sure if you had the actual files side by side it would be a different story.
schumif1champ it is difficult but this wasn’t a field test it was practical use test, which is what I do here. :) I’m sure you’ll find some TH-camrs out there who put the two cameras side-by-side, which the same lenses and take the same shots with the same settings, I’m not them. I shoot real jobs that don’t allow time for such things. Plus I had the camera so early that I couldn’t even process the files the same way so there was no point in trying that anyway. If I ever do field test comparisons I’ll label them that was so you can find them. I DEFINITELY think they’re valuable.
FPS=You know, that is something that I CONSTANTLY have to tell my crew: Do not use burst mode! We sell onsite and have no time to edit or delete photos before the teams come up to our view laptops. They don't want to scroll thru frames on a movie. I guess this is because I went to school back in the days of film, but I try to get the image in one shot. I don't see why everyone is using burst mode. I mean, if I was shooting for a newspaper, I wouldn't want to go thru 1000+ photos to find 2 or 3 to publish! What I want out of a camera is a fast and accurate auto focus, good low noise in high ISO, and controls that are intuitive. I personally don't need video, or most of the bells and whistles that come with modern cameras.
I have done a few weddings, and even there, I don't think most of the things cameras tout are really germane. I mean resolution-my clients aren't printing billboards, so a reasonable amount of megapixels would be fine. FPS-I mean, yes, you want to shoot the kiss, and so forth, but I don't think anyone needs 20FPS to do that!
so true
Thanks!
My pleasure

The photo critique you and Seth did. Lmbo
These 2 Canon Models have virtually ' unnoticeable ' differences in 'stills' image quality. The examples Vanessa show are with different lenses, different focal lengths, different lenses settings so nothing is comparable ! a ' pointless review ' just don't get it ... if your going to compare models use the exact same lens etc., and side by side comparisons. In the real World you wont't be able to see-any-difference, just you will hear one and not the other in a client-room-environment. I know: because I have both Models!
According to my wife l need a new this and that
Gerard Ferry lol oh really??
....to make money you need to invest money
I am on the Canon 1DX Mark II and primarily for Wildlife. And no, I won't upgrade. I am not into video, so I don't really need the new video functions. And I also don's use Liv View for my work. So then just the DLSR functions are left and there is not much improvement over the 1DX Mark II. Yes, the buffer is nice. But already the buffer of the 1DX Mark II is more than enough for me, it was never a limiter for my work. And boring 20MP again. Not even the technology of the sensor has been improved, this just old CMOS tech from 5 years ago. No stacking. No BSI. Basically a carry over from 1DX Mark II. So no. I won't get the 1DX Mark III. I will wait on the mirrorless version of the 1DX, then maybe I add this tool.
But have you tried the new focusing system? That’s the kicker for me... though if you’re thinking of going mirrorless then I imagine you’ll see it or something like it eventually
@@VanessaJoy Yes, Autofocus is improved what is good, no doubt. But for my Wildlife work I would appreciate seeing (in Autofocus) something similar what you can get with the Sony A9 and this is a Lock-On function. This is for Wildlife simply absolutely amazing. You lock the target and the Autofocus follows it with stunning accuracy. I hope something like this or similar is coming with the rumored professions version of the Canon EOS R. And there is one thing with DSLR's wich bothers really especially when you work wit super long telephoto lenses (600mm 4.0 and beyond) and that is the AF Microadjustment. What a hell, any small deviation from the optimal calibration setting of lens and camera is magnified due to the long focal length resulting into blurs. It takes you a long time to get lens and camera calibrated. Calibration software can help but it is still a pain and you know, every time the image is not 100% sharp you have the bad feeling the calibrations sucks a bit. With a mirrorless camera this isn't any issue as you do the focusing directly on the sensor. So that's why I am eager to see the upcoming professional mirrorless version of the 1DX Mark III from Canon. For me the overall functions of the 1DX Mark III is giving me an outlook on what is coming from Canon with their professional mirrorless camera.
Yeah that sounds like what happens with the focus system in this camera. It’ll follow the subject - which is AMAZING For me with weddings since I like my couples moving around a lot. All good advances!
@@VanessaJoy Well, this I need to see if with OVF. With Live View I know they have a kind of this function but in Wildlife you usually don't use Live View as this hardly make sense together with a 600mm 4.0 Prime :) So 95% of my shots are with the OVF. And here such functions does not exist as far I could see.
Stefan1968ful yeah I’m AI servo you have face and head detection so you set it and it’ll track... I believe - when I get it back in my hands I can confirm

This is ridiculous! Comparing 2 camers only in wedding photografy. You can also do it with a 5d mk3 very well !!
I’m comparing Two, not making a “best camera for wedding ᴾʰᵒᵗᵒᵍʳᵃᵖʰʸ “ video. Why is that ridiculous?
Waiting for R5
Can’t wait!
Wouldn’t it be cheaper to get a 5dmk4 for similar results
That’s not really comparing apples to apples and I could definitely do a whole video comparing the two!
The 5D is a very different camera, I'd even get the original 1DX over the 5d iv for sports, that higher fps :)
You buy a 1d for building handling battery life and reliability, not for result
telemaq76 I buy it for result too... and for durability

I Upgraded from my Canon 20D to a 1D mark III
Congrats!
Now that’s a huge jump
I upgraded from 5D3 to 1DX2 in 2016 then I regreted cause the image quality not as what I expected. Then in 2017, I bought Fujifilm GFX50S. When I go wildlife shooting, IDX2 does the job, when I go landscaping or portrait GFX get well done. There is no reason to upgrade to 1DX3 now, since both current systems are quite bulky, i am thinking of add 1 new system to my camera family - Leica M10R.🥳
I don't even upgrade my 6D to 6Dmk2
Glad you found a good tool for you!
At $6500, this is for the professional or independently wealthy individual. With a 70-200 version 3, you're talking close to $8500. Nice if you get afford it.
It's definitely top-of-the-line
The Canon 1dx mk3 uses two CF cards instead of the 1 CF and 1 CFast 2.0 cards which is much faster so I don't see how the buffer on the mk3 doesn't fill up quicker when I use my 16 fps. Personally I'll keep sticking with my 1DX MK II and 5DSR rather than blow thousands more on a MK III Canon is already planning to abandon as far as support goes. In my book the MK III is the latest and greatest dodo due to Canon's infatuation with mirrorless.
I can’t tell if the “dodo” was intentional but I’m here for it 💩
You could have been benefitting from the silent shutter, amazing fast tracking AF,/eye AF, fast shutter speeds etc that make for the better user and client experience that you said are so important to you for the last nearly three years if you'd had the Sony A9, for a lot less money! :-P
Yeah but then I can’t shoot in the heavy rain and sleet when I need to 🤷🏻♀️
@@VanessaJoy Also the A9 is only 5 FPS. And there were no pro tele lenses for the A9 until recently. Also the Sony 600 and 400 2.8 are much worse IQ imo.
