Speed Kills

As I mentioned yesterday, the new Canon 1DX is a real speedster.  Some from Boston would say that the 1DX is "wicked" fast, but since I'm not a Patriots fan I will restrain from such ridiculousness.  Anyway, again I'm not sure who exactly is going to put the 12 frames per second in RAW or 14 frames per second in JPEG-Only to good use.  I'm sure the photographers at the 2012 Summer Olympics will be clicking away, but for everyone else, be prepared to drop some serious cash on high-capcity/high-speed CF cards.  Maybe someone will come up with a clever stop motion video.  After all, 14 frames per second will capture some choppy motion.  I've seen this done before with the Nikon D3s.   While it will probably be quite a bit before we get our hands on the new EOS 1DX, here is a video to whet your appetite for now.
