Mobile-friendly Guidebook:

Available as an instant download, The Canon Digital Learning Center has

issued a free mobile-friendly guidebook to help users on-the-go master

the high-performance AF features of their EOS-1D X Digital camera.

Designed to help users capture their perfect moment, the guidebook

provides an overview of the new AF features and changes introduced with

the camera firmware version 2.0.


EOS 5D Mark III users may find this resource useful as well, as it

shares the same 61-Point AF System, and many of the same AF features as

the EOS-1D X camera.
