Republic of Ireland, United Kingdom, 2 February 2016 – Canon today premiers the highly anticipated EOS-1D X Mark II, its new flagship DSLR engineered to put the ultimate combination of image quality, resolution and speed in the palm of your hand. Crafted to give photographers a competitive edge from the second they shoot, the EOS-1D Mark II establishes a new benchmark for speed – shooting 14 frames per second (fps) with full AF/AE tracking and 16 fps in Live View mode – ideal for capturing high-speed subjects, whether in the wild, or at world-class sporting events.

Developed using feedback from the worldwide community of EOS-1D X photographers, the EOS-1D X Mark II features a new 20.2 MP full frame CMOS sensor and new AI Servo AF III+, as well as 4K video capture up to 60p. This blend of power and performance makes the camera an essential companion for virtually all professional specialisms.
