Hey man let me just say that you're awesome and this video is GREAT!

[SaschaHuber]

Hey :)
You mentioned that you wouldn’t even have to colour grade the files afterwards. So did you record in auto mode or without any hacked flat picture?

Btw: Amazing help and great videos! Keep up the good work!

[venesschang]

Brother, can you please tell me what picture setting do you use for your video ? Since this camera don’t have C-Log, do you set your own C-Log alike and if you do can you please share what you do ? Thanks!

[fiskpad]

Can you set up the camera to record video to the CFAST card and stills to the SD card? If so then you can transfer your pictures to your phone via the Apple SD to lightning adapter. If you have an iPhone of course.

I am looking forward to purchasing this one used and I was wondering how your opinion has changed about it in the last 6 years?

[deaniweenie]

Brandon, when on your face, this video isn't sharp, your eyes aren't in focus. Why is that? Did you shoot this video on the 1DX?

[fenefena]

Hello ! Could you please let me know what to do when recording video on autofocus mode I can hear the lens focus, Do you know what’s the best way to avoid this sound being recorded ? Many Thanks

[HKFIJIHK]

Looking to grab one of these used. Was wondering your thoughts on the 1DX mk1 colors vs mk2

[ChrisSchieritz]

Hey Brandon, I bought the 1Dxii myself and i'm from Scotland which is central for rain and horrible weather, how good is the weather sealing because i'm positive I saw someone submerge the camera in a sink full of water, I can't say for sure if they were saying that's how resistant it is or they were just showing off how much money they have by doing something that wreck-less! Anyway your opinion would certainly take the nerves away from me when it comes to shooting in the rain!

Hello can you tell me which cf card and cfast card you use and or what you could recommend, for the 1dx mk2 for 4k, and also 4k 60p, and if im not recording 4k 60p, should i use cf, or should i always use cfast for 4k Music Videos, so basically can you tell me which Cf or Cfast cards not to buy, i just got new 1dx, so i need to buy cards, any body please chime in on which cfast cards.

[rumporridge]

Excellent video and well put together. It’s also my dream camera. Will work up to this after I master my Mark IV.

[the.jose.martinez]

Great video review man! I absolutely love the 1dx Mark ii and use it all the time.

[jaybowloski]

Thanks for the review!

I have been shooting Sony A7Sii for awhile now and overall I like it. However, my biggest beef with it is the mirrorless body. Every time I change a lens out, I have to pay special attention to the sensor to make sure no dust had made it in. I have had shots ruined because of that.

I am thinking about going back to Canon and going with the 1dx. A lot of what I shoot consists of run and gun projects capturing b-roll, and historically when I have shot with my mark iii I get frustrated from people who will see me and ‘plant and grin’ because they think I am capturing stills. I am hoping with the larger body of the 1dx some of that may be eliminated, but I would love to hear your thoughts.

[luissalazar]

Nice job, easy to understand your commits.

[fenefena]

Hi Kenneth ! I wonder if you could help me again, I just bought the 1dxii, but I’m just wondering when you switch the photo mode to video mode is it normal that it makes a sound like a trigger ? Thanks

[carlmantosvisuals]

nice video! what cf cards brand are you using?

[winstonhenvey]

Hey Brother, thanks for the review. If you're looking for an affordable wifi adapter, the Vello Extendá Wi-Fi remote gets photos on your phone pretty quickly. instead of paying $600, you're only paying around $130.
