p.1 #1Let's see your favorite 1DM4 action shots
The 1D MIV has been around for well over two years, and it is now what many consider a mature product. That is, most users had enough time already to learn its behavior, and to adjust their capture and PP workflows to optimize the strengths and minimize the weaknesses of this body.

I guess this is a good time as any to see how good the 1D IV has been as an action camera (with its robust AF system and fast frame rate) in the hands of FM shooters.

Let’s see some of your favorite action images from this body, the ex-king of the Canon AF hill (the throne is now occupied by the 1Dx of course).

Here's a few from last year. The second photo is nothing special, but I like how he just lost a feather in the middle of my burst as as he was coming into land on a post.

These are all well done, Whayne..... but I've to disagree with you on the second one, it's actually my favorite of the set. It's like a rocket losing its spent booster in mid-air.
