Reviewers from digitalpicture have found the following***:
The Canon EOS-1D X Mark II lives at the top of the descending-sorted price list. If you are a serious photographer shooting indoor action, this camera's flicker mode alone can be worth the upgrade price. For a very significantly higher resolution at an offsettingly similar slower frame rate, the Canon Eos 5Ds and 5Ds R are extremely capable bodies.
