Connectivity comparison

For some imaging applications, the extent to which a camera can communicate with its environment can be an important aspect in the camera decision process. The table below provides an overview of the connectivity of the Canon EOS-1D Mark II N and Canon EOS-1Ds Mark II and, in particular, the interfaces the cameras (and selected comparators) provide for accessory control and data transfer.

Both cameras feature a PC Sync terminal to control professional strobe lights, which will be appreciated by studio photographers.

Возможности видео

Если внимательно посмотреть на возможности видео EOS-1D X II, то можно сразу заметить, что камере не хватает опций Focus Peaking и Zebra Patterns. Такие функции есть в кинокамерах Canon EOS. При использовании внешнего рекордера этот функционал появляется. Режим Log Gamma, который появился в Canon EOS 1D C может работать только при использовании разрешения FullHD. Так что не понятно, будет ли выпущена версия камеры 1D C II. Камера также может выводиться только 1080p по HDMI, что говорит о том, что Canon пытается разделить функционал, ориентированный на фото и видео в разных продуктах.

Review summary

So how do things add up? Is the Canon 1D Mark II N better than the Canon 1Ds Mark II or vice versa? A synthesis of the relative strong points of each of the models is listed below.

Reasons to prefer the Canon EOS-1D Mark II N:

• Larger screen: Has a bigger rear LCD (2.5″ vs 2.0″) for image review and settings control.
• Faster burst: Shoots at higher frequency (8.5 vs 4 flaps/sec) to capture the decisive moment.
• Greater peace of mind: Features a second card slot as a backup in case of memory card failure.
• More affordable: Was introduced into a lower priced category (50 percent cheaper at launch).
• More modern: Is somewhat more recent (announced 11 months after the 1Ds Mark II).

Arguments in favor of the Canon EOS-1Ds Mark II:

• More detail: Has more megapixels (16.6 vs 8.2MP), which boosts linear resolution by 42%.
• Better image quality: Scores markedly higher (8 points) in the DXO overall evaluation.
• Better low-light sensitivity: Can shoot in dim conditions (0.6 stops ISO advantage).
• Larger viewfinder image: Features a viewfinder with a higher magnification (0.70x vs 0.55x).
• Less heavy: Has a lower weight (by 350g or 22 percent) and is thus easier to take along.
• Faster data transfer: Supports a more advanced USB protocol (2.0 vs 1.1).
• More heavily discounted: Has been on the market for longer (launched in September 2004).

If the number of relative strengths (bullet points above) is taken as a guide, the 1Ds Mark II emerges as the winner of the match-up (7 : 5 points). However, the relative importance of the various individual camera aspects will vary according to personal preferences and needs, so that you might like to apply corresponding weights to the particular features before making a decision on a new camera. A professional wedding photographer will view the differences between cameras in a way that diverges
from the perspective of a travel photog, and a person interested in cityscapes has distinct needs from a macro shooter. Hence, the decision which camera
is best and worth buying is often a very personal one.

Canon 1D Mark II N Review

Technical Specifications

Format: 35 mm Viewfinder: 100%Focus points: 5Metering system: 16 zone (evaluative)ISO range: 6-6400, including auto-DX code reader with manual override Shutter: 30 seconds-1/8000, with Bulb functionX-Flash sync: 1/250Total weight (including optional grip): 1 lb, 14.5 oz

So let’s kick off with the overview of the camera. It’s a sturdy, well-built, high-end-looking SLR. It still maintained the same design as the EOS-1, which was adapted from the original Canon T90. However, the EOS-1N was finished with a matte gripping, giving it a more sturdy feel and less reflective areas (beneficial to inconspicuous wildlife shooting). It’s heavy enough to know you got it hanging around your neck, but not too much that 20 years down the line you’d have developed a hunched back.

The images this camera produces are second to none! The metering is always spot on and you always have full control with the spot, center-weighted, and evaluative metering modes with selective and autofocusing points. The camera has all the same modes you will see on a modern DSLR — manual, aperture priority, shutter priority, program mode, bulb, and depth of field mode — and it all works exactly how you would want it to. The focusing speed is exceptional even by today’s standards, comparable to a 5D MkII or 6D. The focus is snappy with little hunt or back focus, making you nail the shot every time. Like all cameras in the EOS range, this camera will shine when paired with a decent glass lens. With a fast glass lens, fast focusing, and the five frames per second burst shutter rate, you’ll never miss that shot!

11 Reasons Why You Should Buy This Camera

No.1. It’s built like a tank. Whether you throw it about, take it out in Arctic conditions, or leave it out in the hot midday sun, it’ll survive a bashing.

No. 2. With fresh batteries, you can easily shoot 50 rolls of film without needing replacements. With the optional vertical battery grip, it takes AA batteries which are widely available.

No. 3.^ Canon has a huge range of EF lenses from ultra-wide 8 mm up to 1200 mm super telephoto. This camera is also compatible with all EF lenses even those by third-party brands such as Sigma, Tokina, Samyang, Rokinon, and Tamron.

No. 4. It has all the features you expect to find in a professional camera including bracketing, flash exposure compensation, and the option of setting up custom functions so you can create your own go-to quick modes for whatever you shoot.

No. 5. The auto-motor driven film advance sound has the classic nostalgic paparazzi sound that you first associate with a professional camera.

No. 6. It feels great and everything is where it should be.

No. 7. Although not a significant point, the viewfinder shutter (that Canon later dropped in their newer and digital cameras) installed to ensure that absolutely no unwanted light gets into your camera while shooting long exposures is definitely a nice touch.

No. 8. The camera is still serviceable so if ever you do have any issues, it can still be corrected.

No. 9. Owning a flagship camera makes you feel like a champion!

No. 10. Unlike most motor-driven cameras with auto wind advance and rewind functions, the camera has no IR sensors so you can easily use Aerochrome and B&W IR film without any fogging.

No. 11. The camera has an exceptional multiple exposure function which allows you to set it to take between 1-10 exposures per frame, and it’ll bracket and meter accordingly so you will never blow out an exposure. A godsend to Lomographers! Below is a sample photo was taken with Fomapan 100 ASA:

In conclusion, the Canon EOS-1N is a fantastic camera. From the sample photos that I have shared, you can see that it’s incredibly versatile. It can operate as a fully professional photographers’ workhorse and just as nicely in the hands of a Lomographer or experimental photographer. It’ll never let you down, and once you start shooting with it, you will not want to put it down. The camera is widely available on online auctions and secondhand camera shops. You can get it for as low as £90, which is almost £1,500 cheaper than its original recommended retail price.

I crown this camera the King of 35 mm SLRs as I feel that it outperforms my current DSLRs. As far as I’m concerned, it ticks every box. Being a Canon shooter, I’m pretty much oblivious to the Nikon equivalent. But I’m sure that even if you’re Team Nikon, you won’t be disappointed when you use this camera.

Sensor comparison with a 35mm slide

The size of the sensor inside a digital camera is one of the key determinants of image quality. A large sensor will generally have larger individual pixels that offer better low-light sensitivity, provide wider , and have richer than smaller pixels in a sensor of the same technological generation. Furthermore, a large sensor camera will give the photographer more possibilities to use shallow in order to isolate a subject from the background. On the downside, larger sensors tend to be associated with larger, more expensive camera bodies and lenses.

The Canon 1D Mark II N features an APS-H sensor and has a format factor
(sometimes also referred to as «crop factor») of 1.3. Within the spectrum of camera sensors, this places the Canon 1D Mark II N among the large-sensor cameras
that aim for top notch image quality.

Consistent information on actual sensor performance is available from DXO Mark for most cameras. This service is based on lab testing and assigns an overall score to each camera sensor, as well as ratings for dynamic range («DXO Landscape»), color depth («DXO Portrait»), and low-light sensitivity («DXO Sports»). The table below summarizes the physical sensor characteristics and sensor quality findings and compares them across a set of similar cameras.

It should be noted that unlike many modern cameras, the 1D Mark II N does not provide the possibility to capture videos.

Body comparison

An illustration of the physical size and weight of the Canon 1D Mark II N and the Canon 1Ds Mark II is provided in the side-by-side display below. The two cameras are presented according to their relative size. Three successive views from the front, the top, and the rear are shown. All width, height and depth dimensions are rounded to the nearest millimeter.

In this particular case, the Canon 1D Mark II N and the Canon 1Ds Mark II have exactly the same width and height,
and, thus, have identically-sized bodies. However, the 1Ds Mark II is markedly lighter (22 percent) than the 1D Mark II N. In this context, it is worth noting that both cameras are splash and dust-proof and can, hence, be used in inclement weather conditions or harsh environments.

The above size and weight comparisons are to some extent incomplete since they do not consider the interchangeable lenses
that both of these cameras require. A larger imaging sensor (as in the 1Ds Mark II) will tend to go along with bigger and heavier lenses,
while more compact options are available for the smaller-sensor camera (1D Mark II N).
You can compare the optics available in the Canon EF Lens Catalog.

As can be seen in the images above, both cameras have a battery grip built in. This facilitates image-taking in portrait orientation
and gives it additional battery power.

The table below summarizes the key physical specs of the two cameras alongside a broader set of comparators. If you want to switch the focus of the display and review another camera pair, just select a new right or left
comparator from among the camera models in the table. Alternatively, you can also move across to the CAM-parator tool and
choose from the broad selection of possible camera comparisons there.

Any camera decision will naturally be influenced heavily by the price. The retail prices at the time of the camera’s release place the model in the market relative to other models in the producer’s line-up and the competition. The 1D Mark II N was launched at a markedly lower price (by 50 percent) than the 1Ds Mark II, which puts it into a different market segment. Usually, retail prices stay at first close to the launch price, but after several months, discounts become available. Later in the product cycle and, in particular, when the replacement model is about to appear, further discounting and stock clearance sales often push the camera price considerably down.
