HurtinMinorKey Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 [quote name='Germy1979' timestamp='1346092304' post='16624'] Lower megapixels gather more light on the sensor because they can be bigger. High-Def images in motion (1920 x 1080p) - are roughly only about 3 megapixels. For example, a full-frame sensor with 10 megapixels would have more dynamic range than an 18 megapixel sensor. The photosites are bigger [/quote] Let's not forget the biggest driver of the video quality: Canon basically determines the video quality (like a setting) after-the-fact to maintain product differentiation. In other words, the video quality is not driven by hardware limitations, it’s driven by ill conceived marketing strategies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomekk Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Guys, What about HIGH iso performance? Looking at the ISO noise chart it (can't find it now) looks like ISO 10000 @ 5dMK3 == ISO 20000 @ 1DX. Was looking for video test but NOBODY has tested it yet (high ISO 5dmk3 vs 1DX). Good opportunity to get famous IMHO ;). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
