If you’ve been wondering what kind of eye candy Canon’s EOS-1D C is capable of, you might be in luck. The crew over at EOSHD have apparently snagged some 4K sample footage from an early prototype of the unreleased, professional-grade DSLR. The clip looks slick to us, albeit lacking in the scenery department. Even so, EOSHD comments that while a “massive step up for image quality compared to all previous DSLRs” the video footage isn’t as sharp as stills from the 1D X (the 1D C’s less-endowed sibling) and “not near what true 4K should look like.” (Of course, anyone looking for true 4K is advised to step up to Sony’s $70k F65 CineAlta, so we guess you get what you pay for). You can check out the minute-long clip, unfortunately scaled to a Vimeo-friendly 1,920 x 1,080, after the break. If your discerning eye demands the raw footage, however, why not grab the few seconds available at the source link.
