Newly developed 61-point AF sensor

In order to achieve even higher performance AF than the 
EOS-1D X, a newly developed AF sensor is included on 
the EOS-1D X Mark II. There's added vertical AF coverage 
in the frame, for freedom of composition, and the large 
number of cross-type AF points achieves great 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. In addition to all AF points 
supporting f/8 AF, basic 
performance is improved 
so the center AF points 
expand to low-intensity 
limit EV -3.
