    Canon 1D X Mk II Owners Thread

    at 800 say..the noise is not great anyway..i was comparing the shutter speeds,... as with birds I wanna see feather detail..so I thought that iso levels had a bench mark...that gives a certain shutter speed for a certain iso ??...obviously differing as the f stop differs...no???

    Just to ask the stupid question... they are both set to the value for iso / shutter etc (ful stop, 1/2 stop, 1/3 stop) adjustment values?.. yes, both set to same iso's..and both in 1/3rd stops.... the guy in the canon centre said, 'it must be because it's a totally new sensor'....so does that...

    Canon 1D X Mk II Owners Thread

    a bit off topic but can anyone explain this problem...I just got a 1dx mk2...and trying it next to a 5d mk3, I notice that under exactly the same settings and conditions..the 5dmk3 gives me twice the shutter speed than the 1dxmk2..using the same iso etc etc.....in AV...when I was expecting it...
