If you are someone who wants to capture fleeting moments, Canon has just launched the EOS-1D X Mark II, its new flagship professional EOS DSLR model. Aimed at top professionals, this is a fully loaded camera that could give you photos a marked step-up. Its enviable features left us stunned, and took more time than a review usually takes up. For starters, it has an expanded AF area, with an all-new 61-point all points selectable AF system with 41-points cross type AF. Its low-intensity limit function at the centre AF is also improved to EV-3, thus ensuring a solid performance even in low-light and low contrast conditions. To capture fast and unexpected movements, there is a new AF algorithm with AI servo scenes analysis that improves AF precision. A cool feature, this DSLR’s 4K Frame Grab function lets users easily extract images of approximately 8.8 megapixels in JPEG format from 4K movies recorded on the camera without needing to connect to a computer. Just as pleasing is that file transfer is made easy with the Wireless File Transmitter K394. Also, for the first time in the EOS-1D series, GPS is built into the body of the camera. A USB 3.0 port allows high-speed data transfer. Sports, fast action, wildlife photographers, this is for you. The build and feel are better too, as the camera is encased in a robust magnesium alloy body, designed to be dust and drip-proof. Rs.455,995, canon.co.in
