Canon finally announced the upcoming professional DSLR, EOS-1D X Mark III in October, 2019. Although it hasn’t been released on the market, this announcement gives all the professional photographers a sneak peek at the greatest coming from engineers of Canon. By using data and feedbacks of EOS-1D X and EOS-1D X Mark II from professionals around the world, EOS-1D X Mark III features the amazingly improved autofocus system, updated CMOS Sensor, first-rate video image quality as well as the extremely good optical devices and many more.


According to Canon’s proclamation, EOS-1D X Mark III is designed not only for ordinary professional photographers. It is especially ideal for sports and wildlife photographers as well. Besides, Canon even guarantees that professionals will get the shots and deliver it at a faster-than-ever-before speed when using this camera. To take a quick review about this camera, here are some key features of EOS-1D X Mark III from B&H Photo Video.

● 16 fps Shooting with Viewfinder

● 20 fps Shooting During Live View

● 4K 10-Bit 4:2:2 Internal Video Recording

● Updated CMOS Sensor and DIGIC Processors


To match up with most photographers’ expectations, the need for speed is always the standard for users to capture the shot which they are chasing. With EOS-1D X Mark III’s newly improved autofocus system, both subject-tracking and stability will level up when using the Optical Viewfinder (up to approximately 16 fps mechanical shutter) and Live View shooting mode (up to approximately 20 fps mechanical or electronic shutter) simultaneously.

Furthermore, EOS-1D X Mark III is capable of delivering better image quality with the whole new, Canon-developed CMOS sensor and DIGIC processor. And with the HEIF file format (High Efficiency Image File), this camera can produce broader dynamic range and various color representation compared to JPEG.


Although EOS-1D X Mark III can be the ideal camera for all the professional photographers in question, the price is not as consumer-friendly as it costs approximately 6,000 US$ (180,000 NT$) with body only. However, to produce excellent photos, it could still be a worthy investment for many professionals worldwide.
