| p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · 1dmkIV AI servo UPDATE - GIF sequence included now | |
Once again many thanks must go to Matthew Sauk for hosting the pictures. I have now included the whole 44 pictures for download plus a gif sequence of 44 pictures
Hi all,
Went to do some Ai Servo birds in flight shots this morning but it was inconclusive as there were not many Birds flying my way. So I force my son perform the running test  .
I shot using 300mm F2.8 IS, at f2.8 using tripod on a wimberley head II and shooting in S Raw. In S Raw, I was able to get continuos 44 shots without buffer filling up. I selected centre focus point and left all settings in standard mode.
Of the 44 shots 1 as blur and the 2nd shot was only slightly blur and that was when my son slowed down to watch cross traffic of cars coming along. I repeated the test and I basically got the same result. Each time he slowed slightly to look at traffic, thats where I got the 1 to 2 slightly blur shots. As you can see the test was carried in very strong Australian sun as well. Another thing was my son was not running in a straight line as well. He was moving sort of from left of screen towards the right of screen. For that reason I think the camera did a fantastic job in returning such a high percentage of in focus shots.
I am very impress with the result as the pics were tack sharp.
Attached is one of the shots (worried of bandwidth) otherwise I would post the entire 44 shots.

Please note I am do not proclaim to be an expert with this kind of testing, I am just posting the results using the new Ai Servo test to share with those people who unfortunately have not receive their cameras yet or want to know how this new camera would perform. I am personally very impressed with the results that I obtained from this test. What I found that the sharp images were very sharp as well, may be it is the 16mp sensor or maybe it is from the much improved predictive AI Servo. Be the judge yourself when you download the pictures.

Conclusion
It is certainly a exceptional camera, with great High ISO, excellent focusing, excellent HD video, excellent LCD, Auto ISO even in manual mode and heaps additional new features. What more can I say.
Considering this beautiful baby is not much more than what I paid for my D60 some 7 years ago. I am just over the moon. With a camera like this, I just cannot complaint.
