Hands-on with the new EOS-1D X Mark II

[PLEASE NOTE: IMAGE TAKEN WITH A BETA SAMPLE CAMERA]

February 2nd I was one of the lucky few who get their hands on the much anticipated new Canon flagship workhorse: EOS-1D X Mark II. As an ambassador for Canon Netherlands I was invited to join a small, select, group of press people at a car drifting school near the famous old Dutch racing circuit of Zandvoort.

My conclusion: With all attention focused on the raw specs this camera feels slightly undersold at this point. Not surprisingly though; since the two best features are very hard to put into hard numbers. But actual use puts it into a whole different perspective – incredible image quality combined with near perfect autofocus makes this camera a game changer.
