1D MK II Dynamic Ranges

[oeyvind]

From RG forum...

Quote: >>1) How many "stops of light" does the 1D Mark II sensor recognize and or record?<< The dynamic range of the EOS-1D Mark II sensor is approximately 9 stops. >>2) Do I understand correctly that PF 19 will allow the user to set for example 5 FPS firing rate?<< Correct. >>3) Can the center autofocus point be selected individually? I'm confused by reading the white paper and sales brochure where it says "Manual selection of 45, 11 or 9 AF points is possible." This suggests you cannot select an individual autofocus point.<< Yes, you can select the center focus point individually in any of these modes. >>4) Do I understand correctly that the you must use a Firewire port to connect the 1D Mark II to your computer? I noticed it says that the USB connection is exclusively for Direct Printing.<< Correct on both points. Of course, you can also remove the memory card(s) from the camera and download them to your computer via card reader. -------------------- Chuck Westfall Director/Technical Information Dept.
