Beautiful
Images.
Fast.

T
he first thing that
strikes me about
the EOS-1D Mark IV
is speed. Fast shooting,
fast focusing, fast ISO,
fast period.
I only shoot
RAW, and
with this
camera, I
can shoot a burst of 25
images without waiting
for it to buffer. That’s
25 RAW images in
about 2.5 seconds. The
focusing is incredible,
I use it in conjunction
with the 300mm f/2.8.
This combination
allows you to capture
any subject, in focus,
quickly, whether it’s a
linebacker breaking a
tackle or an eagle tak-
ing flight. This camera
responds!”

Canon CMOS Sensors
The EOS-1D Mark IV’s CMOS sensor was
designed by Canon to deliver only the
highest quality images. Smooth com-
plexions, stunning colors and sharp detail are achieved
thanks to the sensor know-how of Canon.
Noise Reduction Technology
With its noise reduction
technology, the EOS EOS-1D
Mark IV is designed to mini-
mize digital noise that can
ruin what is otherwise a
beautiful photo. Smooth
images, rivaling the best
medium-format films, are
achieved simply and quickly thanks to brilliant Canon
hardware and software solutions.
Dual DIGIC 4 Image Processors
In addition to speeding up and enabling a
dizzying array of camera functions, the
EOS-1D Mark IV’s Dual DIGIC 4 Image Processors ensure
that color rendition, noise reduction and reproduction of
fine detail are improved such that editorial and advertising
photography are now standard fare for a digital SLR.
14-bit A/D
The EOS-1D Mark IV employs a 14-bit converter to process
the output of the CMOS sensor. Compared to the 12-bit
converters used in most digital cameras, the Canon
design ensures smoother tonal transitions, more natural
gradations and superior color fidelity. RAW images are
recorded at 14 bits (or 16,384 colors) so that processed
16-bit TIFF images contain the full range of tonal values
captured by the sensor.
