If you’ve been speculating just what kind of eye candy Canon’s EOS-1D C is capable of, you might be in luck. The team over at EOSHD have obviously snagged some 4K sample video footage from an early prototype of the unreleased, professional-grade DSLR. The clip looks slick to us, albeit lacking in the scenery division. Nevertheless, EOSHD comments that while a “large step up for image quality compared to all previous DSLRs” the video recording footage isn’t really as sharp as stills from the 1D X (the 1D C’s less-endowed sibling) and “not near exactly what real 4K must look like.” (Of course, anybody searching for real 4K is advised to step up to Sony’s $ 70k F65 CineAlta, so we guess you get exactly what you pay for). You can check into the minute-long clip, however scaled to a Vimeo-friendly 1,920 x 1,080, after the break.
