Canon 1D Mark IV HD Video High ISO Test. Part 1.

by jared1January 28^th, 2010

Birns & Sawyer in Hollywood was SUPER COOL. They let me borrow their rental Canon 1D Mark IV for a few hours late last night. I had only one battery that was half -up, no sticks and only two zoom lenses to work with. I grabbed a light stand with a 1/4-20 top thread and went out into Hollywood to shoot. My goal was to check out the IQ at higher ISO. I wanted to see how this bad boy performs when pushed. I shot this scene with the light stand tripod @ 3200, 6400, and 12800 ISO.

My AC, Chris Collins was there, AS ALWAYS. Thanks Chris. I also want to thank Birns & Sawyer for hooking me up with the camera.
