Pros: Rugged, tropicalized, fast and "harmonious" shutter, AF.

Cons: Weight (but you can tell just by looking at it).

Opinion: I had been looking at it for a while, I needed a sports machine (specifically), with good tolerance to high ISO and that didn't cost me a kidney. I thought about it a lot, but I did the shopping and I'm very happy about it. I am an amateur photographer and I must say that this camera in my hand gives great satisfaction, I agree it is dated, it is not touchscreen but I can guarantee you that it does not have great importance it is a pleasure to use it. Yes, the weight is there and you can't deny it, but for me it doesn't really matter. Very satisfied and I hope it can reach at least 500,000 shots (now it has about 147,000). Greetings to all! :)

Pros: Robustness, file quality, shutter noise

Cons: It's addictive, and now how do I explain it to my 5D Mark III and 7D Mark II that will have to "bench"?

Opinion: The monkey for the 1DX was snapped when a fellow photographer allowed me to take "a test drive" with his. A bit like when a friend gives you a chance to test drive his Ferrari. Found used with 56k shots and made mine without too much guilt for yet another expense in photographic material. Super file quality (high ISO, I'm not afraid of you!); musicality of the shutter so beautiful that you would snap at anything you see just to hear it; viewfinder which is an invitation to glue your eye to it and observe the world through it. Of course, romanticism aside, it is a very heavy camera (coupled with the 24-70 f/2.8 you exceed 2.5, and you fly at 3Kg mounting the Biancone 70-200 f/2.8; after a whole day at the arena the temptation to ask for a consultation with a physiotherapist is great to fix the neck, shoulders and wrists) and compared to the latest cameras it is obviously less performing. But these are all things that are easily known from the start. I use it for sports, waiting to test it on stage at some concert or festival. Side effects: Addictive. Once I tried it, even the excellent 5D Mark III and 7D Mark II looked like "toys" (obviously in quotes). To the point that even when I go out to photograph outside of work, I often end up with the flagship in my backpack.

Pros: Series 1 and everything that goes with it

Cons: Live view

Opinion: Buy in 2023, found a practically new used opportunity with 15k real first shutter shots. I've always had a feeling for the 1 series, having already had 1d mark ii and iii I wanted to launch myself on the Dx. Well, I'm really happy with the purchase despite the fact that the world is moving towards Mirrorless. Immediately compared with my R6 and R7, I don't deny that there are cons compared to the R series, one of these is the AF point that you don't move as quickly as with the touch of the R, but for the rest, the 1 series are always the 1 series. File equal to the R6 if not a little less, but nerdy things more than real life, even if on the jpeg I prefer the one of R6, but the ISO seal is practically the same as R6, the quality of the file as well, 18 megapixels that bite badly, af and burst that do not make a bend NEVER AND I SAY NEVER!! Unlike R6 which sometimes (rarely but it happens) under particular conditions, does not recognize the "human" subject. In jpeg I arrive at the end of the card exceeding hands down the limits declared in the data sheet. The viewfinder feels like you don't have it since how bright it is! The ease with which you shoot is disarming, the robustness needless to say! The weight? Pure, it's heavy and certainly not an R to carry around, but safety is the reliability it gives you, they're priceless. You turn it on and KNOW it will turn on without any error message. If you have the ok of the fire SAI that it is in focus, there is no escape. The Af on the eye of the R's is fantastic, but those who, like me, use them for work, know well that on those rare occasions when they can't find it, they wander over the subject in search of the eye, and when they do, the accuracy suffers a lot. With the 1dx of course it can't happen and that's a good thing. The battery lasts no less than 4/5 thousand shots, compared to about 1200 of the R6; Basically with a 1DX battery I do 2 services. In those services where I am asked to send files in real time, I miss wi-fi, but you just need to know how to manage yourself to do everything very quickly anyway. In any case, CF cards do not facilitate the download of files on the move, but the 18 Megapixels of the 1dx, with a file of this quality, are really a pleasure to use from all points of view: they are not excessive, they are not very heavy and they have a quality that will not make you want any 24 Mpx or more machine at all. In fact, we are now able to zoom in by two or four times directly from the raw file, with a practically non-existent loss of quality. What disappointed me the most was the live view. Since 14fps is achieved with the mirror up, I knew I didn't have continuous autofocus, but I expected it to be faster in initial focusing. On the other hand, I have to note a certain slowness, a little tiring. On the video side we have a full HD of excellent workmanship, which with the right optics still bites a lot not making you regret a 4k. Of course you don't have the CLog, you don't have the 60 fps, but the files it churns out are fine for wedding, baptism, events such as 18th etc. Anyone who says you NEED 4k raw 444, 12bit 1Gbit/s, is lying, knowing they're lying. If you have to make movies it's one thing (and you don't take either the 1dx or Sony A4 etc), but if in the end the video goes on the TV even 4k 60", shooting an 8k raw it's like photographing your house cat with the 800 5.6. Want to have fun? Lifetime; do you NEED it? Certainly not! In the end I took it as a second body for R6, it ended up that for ease of use, reliability and the guarantee of the result it offers, it became the first body when I don't need streamlined portability at all costs. The Dx series, from 1 to 3, still offers the latest performance, unparalleled reliability and record-breaking longevity.

Pros: All

Cons: None except the live view.

Opinion: After a brief approach to the 1D series with the Mark IV I decided to switch to this 1DX which only improves on the positive aspects I had already experienced previously. Ergonomically a glove with buttons in the right place both horizontally and vertically, double joystick, splendid sensor as colors and high iso resistance, constructively a hammer. Since I have the 5d mk IV, despite being more advanced, it often remains in the bag, with no regrets. Taken as a second body instead of 5d mark III and 1d mark IV, it has become the main body with which I shoot, never has chosen been happier.

Pros: Being a series 1!, Still current today, at the highest levels throughout

Cons: Maybe weight

Opinion: I bought it on day One in 2012 and after 10 years I bought it back, it is robust, heavy, leaves incredible feedback in hand. The controls are excellent and comfortable, the quality and the burst make you dream. I will probably sell it only for the fact that it is heavy and I will probably switch to the RF system but nothing to envy to recent machines. Highly recommended again in 2023
