True True^^ hey im praying its a good cam, Im a canon guy all day... Would love to see them do something that competes with this little GH2... if it isnt 4:2:2 then its not gonna be a game changer I dont think
If I am not mistaken those videos where shot at 12500 and 25000 ISO. The encoding is also very bad and I think the camera is in beta form because it will not launch until march next year. So every judgement is a little premature.
I love how many people around the web are bitching about GOP1 176mbit in the GH2, "what a waste of space for nothing" and now they are all excited for the 350mbit intra of this new camera... people its still shitty ole H.264
With all of the talent at Canon, you would think they would have someone who could do a better job of encoding video for the web! Hopefully there will be better encoded video from other sources soon so that we can judge the true Aliasing and moire handling capabilities of this camera.
I haven't read "no moire" anywhere, just "less moire than any Canon DSLR before". I suspect the linked video was shot on 1Dx, it wouldn't make much sense to show point of view footage from another camera?! Optional codecs is a good sign.
Is that canon link Pixcanfly linked was shot with the 1dx? If so I can see plenty of alaising/moire..some shots are conveniently out of focus to hide it also. Could be shot with something else though....like 7d or mk5 II I could get excited about this camera but like all full frame cameras with video its too expensive/bulky for me. One for Canon posers methinks...or those who like to piss money up a wall just because its "pro"
>why is there no 60fps mode in 1080p? This just doesn't make any sense
This is full frame sensor. Can't handle necessary readout speed, I think. If you fast forward few years you'll see why Nikon used so small sensor and why m43 will have video advantage.
The 1D X offers two compression options, including 'All-I,' a very low compression format that offers high image quality and editability but at the cost of immense files (a 16Gb card will hold around 6 minutes of footage). The alternative is a more standard IPB compression that takes up around 1/12th of the space
Bitrate seems to be very large. 30Mb/s in IPB and 355Mb/s in I?
