 Canon EOS-1Dx Enhanced HD Video features : The Canon EOS-1D X digital SLR camera utilizes new HD video formats to simplify and speed up post-production work. The two new compression formats offered on the Canon EOS-1D X camera include intra-frame (ALL-i ) compression for an editing-friendly format and interframe (IPB) compression for superior data compression, giving professionals the options they need for their ideal workflow. Answering the requests of cinematographers and filmmakers, the new Canon EOS-1D X DLSR camera includes two methods of SMPTE-compliant time code embedding, Rec Run and Free Run, allowing multiple cameras or separate sound recording to be synced together in post production.

Canon EOS-1D X videos in HD
The Canon EOS camera records Full HD at 1920 x 1080 pixels in selectable frame rates of 24p (23.976), 25p, or 30p (29.97); and 720p HD or SD video recording at either 50p or 60p (59.94). SD video can be recorded in either NTSC or PAL standards. The Canon EOS-1D X digital SLR camera also includes manual audio level control, adjustable both before and during movie recording, an automatic setting, or it can be turned off entirely. A wind filter is also included. Sound can be recorded either through the internal monaural microphone or via an optional external microphone through the stereo mic input.

Canon’s all new full-frame image CMOS sensor ensures that video footage captured on the Canon EOS-1D X camera will exhibit less moiré than any previous Canon EOS camera, resulting in a significant improvement in HD video quality. A desired feature for many documentary filmmakers using Canon Digital SLR cameras was to enable recording beyond the four gigabyte (GB) file capacity and the Canon EOS-1D X is the answer.
Canon EOS video features
The new Canon EOS camera features automatic splitting of movie files when a single file exceeds 4GB. The new file splitting function allows for continuous video recording up to 29 minutes and 59 seconds across multiple 4GB files; no frames are dropped and the multiple files can be seamlessly connected in post production, providing filmmakers the recording time they want in the same convenient DSLR form factor.
