EOS-1D X  61-Point High-Density Reticular AF Cross-type Points

The 61-point AF has numerous cross-type points for gre

41-point cross-type AF, with five f/2.8 
dual-cross AF points at the center

AF point at the center

Group B

AF point at the center

By increasing number of AF points greater 
freedom of composition is possible. The large 
number of cross-type  AF points improves 
tracking performance. And as a result of two-
line AF sensors in a zigzag pattern, tracking 
performance is improved for low contrast 
subjects as well.

Newly developed 61-point AF sensor

The  AF  system  of  the  EOS-1D  X  has  many 
attractive features such as the high level of 
composition freedom with 61 different AF 
points, AF area selection modes that utilize the 
merits  of  the  multi-point  AF  system,  and 
implementation of the AF Configuration Tool 
which takes advantage of the improved AI 
Servo AF. In addition to these, is the high 
precision and improved tracking performance 

Most large-aperture lenses with a maximum 
aperture of f/2.8, (or lower f-number values) are 
in Group A. With this group, the five f/2.8 dual-
cross AF points, and the left and right f/4 and 
f/5.6 cross-type AF points (20 points) can be 

of each AF point to capture the subject. With 
the EOS-1D X AF focusing system, most f/2.8 - 
f/4 lenses can utilize the high-performance 
41-point  cross-type  AF  points.  As  Canon 
produce a large number of high performance 
f/2.8 and f/4 AF points, this makes it possible 
for larger aperture lenses to achieve an even 
higher level of focusing precision with these AF 
points than ever before.

used. There are a total of 41 cross-type points 
including the f/5.6 cross-type points. Lenses 
with a maximum aperture of f/2.8 in Group B, 
will only have a single f/2.8 dual-cross AF point 
in the center.
