Adam Wilt's in-depth review of the 1D C is now published on DVi.

Canon’s EOS-1D C, announced at NAB 2012, is now shipping. It’s a full-frame DSLR with an 18 Megapixel sensor, full-frame and crop-mode HD recording, and true 4K at 24fps: 4096×2160 pixels. Yep, 4K in a DSLR package. And it’s only… $12,000. Is Canon mad?

Or just crazy like a fox? Canon lent me a 1D C for a couple of weeks. Maybe we can find out.

Nice writeup! Thanks!

I especially liked the dynamic range comparisons. I've seen earlier comparisons that has shown the Natural profile to be quite a bit cleaner than Canon Log. But then again, I have looked at native Log footage that looked very good, so it might be an ISO issue. There was talk that Canon Log shouldn't be used below ISO400.

Anyway... really looking forward to getting mine!
