Canon just announced its new top of the line camera – the 16 megapixel 1D mkIV. While it’s not full frame, the amazing APS-H sensor captures images up to an incredible 102,400 ISO and video up to 1080p.

While the camera features serious improvements across the board, with 45 autofocus points, 10fps bursts, and improved predictive focusing, it is the video capabilities which are the star of the show – full manual control, a stereo microphone, and 108p video at 24, 25 or 30fps backed up by 50 or 60 fps 720p video. If you have any doubts as to the video capability of this camera – take a look at Vincent Laforet’s Nocturne film – shot in ambient light at 6400 ISO.

The EOS 1D Mk IV will be out in December – with a MSRP of $5000.
