Digital Camera Description

The Canon EOS 1D X is a Professional DSLR with a Full-Frame sensor and a Canon EF lens mount. Its 18 Megapixels CMOS sensor offers an ISO 100-51200 sensitivity range which is expandable to ISO 50-204800. This makes it possible to shoot hand-held in very low-light. With 18 MP of resolution, sharp prints are possible up to 22" x 14" at 240 DPI.

This camera features a mechanic shutter that can expose for 1/8000 to 30s. Bulb exposures of an unspecified duration are possible with this camera. With a fastest shutter-speed of 1/8000, fast action can easily be frozen. Night photography is possible using this digital camera due to its long exposure capability. This camera model offers Full Manual Controls.

The Canon EOS 1D X features a 61-point Phase-Detect AF system. Autofocus can continuously adjust according to subject distance. Manual Focus is also available.
