Top Rated Gear: Used Canon EOS-1DX Mark II Digital SLR Camera undefined

 The Mark of Legends   Immense power. Phenomenal speed. A remarkable combination of innovation and refinement. The new EOS-1D X Mark II camera is nothing but legendary every step of the way. Building on a heritage of sophisticated innovation, the EOS-1D X Mark II is blazingly fast. Up to 14 fps (up to 16 fps in Live View mode) can be captured at a burst rate of up to 170 RAWs with a CFast card, and an improved 61-point AF system helps deliver clean, sharp images quickly, even in dim light. This remarkable speed means faster recording too: 4K video can be recorded at up to 60 fps with smooth AF and strikingly clear detail.  Combined with superb low-light performance thanks to its powerful sensor and expandable ISO range, the EOS-1D X Mark II performs brilliantly, swiftly and stunningly no matter when or where the photographer is shooting. From the stadium, safari or studio to virtually everywhere in between, the EOS-1D X Mark II maintains and enhances all the hallmarks of what Canon has to offer, marking a new page in the legacy of the EOS series of cameras.   Fastest shooting EOS-1D, capable of up to 14 fps full-resolution RAW or JPEG, and up to 16 fps in Live View mode with new Dual DIGIC 6+ Image Processors.   Delivering outstanding performance at speeds of up to 14 fps, and up to 16 fps in Live View, the EOS-1D X Mark II camera is loaded with technologies that help facilitate speedy operation at every step of image capture. The EOS-1D X Mark II features a new mirror mechanism designed for highly precise operation with reduced vibration even at incredibly fast speeds. The shutter unit is rated for 400,000 frames, while the CMOS sensor has high-speed signal reading that enables speedy image capture. A fast AF/AE system, Dual DIGIC 6+ Image Processors and high-speed recording with its new CFast card slot helps ensure that camera operations are quick and precise.   Maximum burst rate of up to 170 RAWs in continuous shooting at up to 16 fps, and 4K movies using CFast cards in the new CFast 2.0 slot.   When recording to CFast 2.0 cards through its new CFast card slot, the EOS-1D X Mark II can record up to 170 full-size RAW files, and JPEGs up to full card capacity at 16 fps. 4K/60p and Full HD/120p video can also be recorded with virtually no restriction, and with eXFAT format support, movie files of larger than 4GB can be recorded without the need to merge files.   Experience less noise in higher ISO images via a new 20.2 Megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor, with an ISO range of 100-51200; expansion to ISO 409600.   The EOS-1D X Mark II camera features a Canon-developed 20.2 Megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor that uses gapless micro lenses for enhanced low-light performance. This results in noise reduction in dark portions of the image even at high ISO speeds, and increased sensitivity that contributes to the EOS-1D X Mark II's high-speed image capture rate, accelerating frame-to-frame performance as well as enabling 4K movies (60p/30p) and improved playback. The new sensor is also Canon's first full-frame sensor to include Dual Pixel CMOS AF for high-speed, precise AF during Live View still and movie recording.   Improved AF performance through 61-point High Density Reticular AF II system with 41 cross-type points, improved center point focusing sensitivity to -3 EV and compatibility down to f/8.   The EOS-1D X Mark II camera features a new 61-point High Density Reticular AF II system with 41 cross-type points that expands the AF area approximately 8.6% in the top and bottom of the central AF area, and approximately 24% at the top and bottom of the peripheral frame. A wider subject tracking area improves the AF system so that challenging focus tracking in scenes with sudden changes of speed and subject position is easier than ever. The AF system's low-intensity limit has been improved to EV -3 and all 61 AF points are compatible down to f/8 for excellent low-light performance.

I have had this camera for about two years now and it has been nothing but amazing. Fast, sharp and solid. Would love to have had wifi included with this camera but other then that outstanding camera for my needs as a sports photographer.

Top notch!

He walked me thru the whole process and received my Canon EOS-1DX Mark II . On time and on the scheduled day .  I use this Camera for shooting Motocross and some Landscape Photos. Thanks Again Adorama  and Thanks to Manny

Amazing Fantastic

The Canon 1DX MarkII is an upgrade for me.  I use it for sports and wildlife photography.  There are a lot of things on the menu that I am familiar with from my 5D Mark II.  
An excellent camera that works well with the Canon line of lenses I have, and I will try it with a few different options of lenses for sports.

Excellent camera

All I can say is stunning photo quality....if you can afford it......get it!

I've used Canon cameras for 35 years and as soon as I picked this one up it felt familiar. Buttons are just where you expect them to be and performance is absolutely fantastic. My pro friend recommended a switch to Sony, but so glad I didn't. With all of my Canon L-series lenses I just figured this would be the better choice. This is one fun camera to use!

Simply stunning

Sold my 1DX for this... the reason why is I have the 500 F4 IS II and the 2x TC III was useless with the 1DX due to the lack of AF points at F8.... The 1DX2 has all 61AF points enabled and the center 21 are all cross type at F8.... that is a HUDGE improvement over the 1DX... Now the 2X works as well as the 1.4TC III .... Live View has Dual Pixel AF which works excellent for verifying focus on distant subjects..... The only gripe is at 14 FPS the sensor gets dirty quicker.....

Awesome all the way around

I love this camera and word recommend to any beginner photographer.

Great Camera

I'm interested in nature and bird photography and this camera giving me great opportunity to achieve what I would like to. I really love this camera and would highly recommend it.

I rate this purchase pretty high, the only thing that didn’t work was, it was delivered 3 days early and I wasn’t ready for it. The sales guy, Mike, was real helpful and the transaction went very smooth. There was more camera than I expected, a lot more bells, whistles and buttons on this thing, however once dialed in I find it to be an awesome piece of equipment.

Canon 1D Mark ii

The camera is great, truly the flagship Canon camera.
As for the kit:
The extra battery is a Canon is a brand new LP-E19 OEM battery.
The CF card is fine (I wish it was a Cfast card or a Cfast card reader).
The card wallet is nice
I did not try the cleaning kit or the software package.
The remote trigger doesn't work
The camera bag is not something I would carry a Canon 1DX MkII in.

Canon EOS-1DX Mark II Digital SLR Camera - Bundle With 64GB Compact Flash Card, Camera Bag, LP-E19 Battery, Remote Shutter Trigger, Cleaning KIt, Memory Wallet, PC Software Package

Great camera.  Everything I expected from Canon...I shoot action sports and the 14f/s is spot on.  A little on the heavy side and pricey, but nothing I didn’t expect.  This camera uses a Compact Flash and a  CFast card.  I’ve not used the CFast card yet as it is rather pricey—I have one on ordered.

Great camera 

I just bought this 1Dx Mark ii and I love it.. I have the orginal 1Dx and I love it too.. Not only is this a great camera but having this bundle from Adorama makes it that much more for a little extra money. It’s all well worth it and shipping was fast and customer service was great when I placed the order over the phone.

Love this camera

Massive FPS in JPG mode. Great tracking in daytime sports. Renders well at high ISO indoors once you get setting dialed in to your needs.

Pro gear

This is an amazing camera for any kind of professional photography. I am a professional wedding photographer and it works much better than other models in low light. That means you can go higher on that ISO and not worry about the noise and grain as much. I wish the touch screen was as good as 5D4 model and had the WiFi built-in. But overall very nice and solid professional camera.

The most have camera for pro wedding photographers

Couldn’t be happier with the cameras performance. I believe that it is the best overall camera that is out. I decided to get this camera instead of buying a camera for only stills and one for only video. This camera does both incredibly well.

Couldn’t be happier

Great

Awesome for wildlife!  Speed and clarity!

Fast focusing, great features, well built.

Solid Performance

I am an amateur bird photographer with about 1500 hours in the field in 30 months.  I have had the idx II for about a month but only been out with it about ten times due to poor weather so this is an  "initial  thoughts" review. 
   First off, my rating of 4 as opposed to 5 has only to do with the fact that this body has been out for over two years, allowing technical advances by Canon and competitors to best some performance  aspects of the camera at lower prices.  I would prefer to rate it at 5 for performance and 4 for value. Upon first use I did find the weight difference between this camera compared to my 5d IV was very noticeable for handholding with my 600mm IS II.  I also  prefer some of the ergonomics of the 5d IV such as the top mode dial, on-off switch position and some on the fly setting adjustments allowed by the 5d IV while maintaining subject contact through the viewfinder. The 5d iv also has the advantage of being 30 mpx vs 20mpx  on the 1DX MKII.  The obvious advantage of the IDXMK II is its ability to shoot up to 14 frames per second in normal photo mode, which along with a touted faster focusing ability is why I bought the camera. As primarily a bird shooter I am finding that the faster frame rate is very beneficial if there is any movement at all in the subject- NOT JUST RAPID MOVEMENT OR IN FLIGHT SHOTS.. For bird photography the slight difference in head, foot, or body position of the subject is the difference between a good shot and just another "stock" shot. Catching water droplets off a bird's beak or a stream of water off of a birds foot at the right time or a running plover while floating above the sand can make or break a shot. The camera's ability to focus just a bit more quickly than the 5d iv seems to make every lens perform just a little bit better. The attached hummingbird shot shows the frame  rate catching  fast moving wings at a favorable position and illustrates why I am willing to give up a little bit of detail to have a better chance of getting the "best" shot.  Other pluses are the long lasting ( though expensive) batteries - a full charge will last all day in most cases, the marketed 400,000 image exposure mechanism which would equal the life of 2 other cameras and reliability of the professional quality body.  
      One considering this camera should look elsewhere for info on the video aspects ( much better than Nikon D5 - longer shoot time than Sony mirrorless) as I have taken only one short video and found that 1080P 30 fps was not a high enough frame rate for smooth video of a rapidly foraging bird. 4k 60 uses a lot of data space but also contains 8 mb still captures. Extensive video use of this camera would increase the value quotient considerably.
   On a side note I shoot in high heat and harsh sunlight frequently. The off center viewfinder makes it difficult to keep a hat on while looking in the viewfinder when the camera is in vertical mode as the viewfinder is below camera vertical center in that orientation.
