Finally first comparison between the Nikon D4 and the Canon EOS 1D X is now available, Matt head of xerodigital tested both Canon 1D X and Nikon D4 side by side, based on test result the overall performance of 1D X is really impressive.
Camera / shot setting: Images captured at RAW mode, processed in Lightroom 4, sharpening and noise reduction set to zero.
Main points of the review
ISO performance: Nikon D4 seemed to have cleaner highlights, while the Canon 1Dx appeared to have better contrast and possibly cleaner shadows. In the end, if we have to award a point here and pick a winner, it’s the Nikon D4 – by a hair
AF in Low-light: During the low-light Test condition Nikon D4 performed better, focuses bit quickly than Nikon D4.
AF Speed: The Canon 1Dx ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED the Nikon D4 in the AF speed test. Canon 1D X is three times faster than the Nikon D4.
Autofocus Consistency: Winner Canon 1D X
Shadow recovery: Winner Nikon D4
AFTER A DECADE OF SHOOTING PROFESSIONALLY WITH NIKON CAMERAS, MATT IS THINKING OF SWITCHING TO CANON…
A head to head comparison between the two flagship cameras. In the end, a decision is made!

BenQ G1 is the first pro compact camera made by BenQ, the camera features Panasonic 14 Mega Pixels, 1/2.3 inch CMOS sensor,F1.8 bright lens with 4.6x optical zoom, ISO rating from 100 to 6400, the G1 have 3.0″ 920k pixels swivel LCD and also features Full HD and HD video recording at 30fps.
New in BenQ G1
The F1.8 Lens
The BenQ G1 lens has seven lenses elements in six groups, including an aspherical lens element that improves focus and image integrity by correcting visual aberrations and minimizing illumination loss.
The high-transmission, part-glass lens material and a wide lens thread of 17mm increase light transmission to achieve optimum visual clarity in dimly lit environments or at night.
A lens shift-type image stabilizer paired with an advanced digital image processor effectively reduces image noise and blur caused by hand jitters.
A shallow depth of field greatly blurs the background to create beautiful bokeh pictures.
New 14 Mp CMOS sensor by Panasonic
A 14M pixel CMOS sensor with embedded light-sensitive diodes increases the pixel-by-pixel light absorbance volume to achieve twice the light transmission rate as a traditional sensor component and to lower image noise by 50% – so ultra-clear photos can be created without a tripod in low light environments and at night. Low voltage image transfer further lowers power consumption, allowing more time for video- and photo-shooting.
High-Speed Dual Core DSP
A dual core operation processes high resolution images and multiple tasks efficiently to deliver Full HD videos and continuously shot photos without increasing power consumption.
Next-generation image processing pipelines transmit high resolution images with low-light sensitivity to offer optimum image and video quality in low light settings or fast-moving scenes.
The new noise cancellation function produces clear and vivid images even with increased ISO sensitivity under a dim light source.
Exclusive Image Registration and Ghost Image Removal technologies further perfect the performance of multi-image composing features such as Handheld Night Shot, HDR and Background Defocus.
Manual Modes
M (Manual) Mode: This feature allows you to set the shutter speed and aperture value freely to take photos with higher flexibility.
Av (Aperture Priority) Mode: 14 aperture value choices at zoom 1 enable you to highlight your photographic theme and create images with great depth.
Tv (Shutter Priority) Mode: This feature allows you to adjust the shutter speed according to your moving subjects to clearly capture dynamic images.
P (Program) Mode: The camera will automatically adjust the shutter speed and aperture value, so all you need to do is focus on forming the perfect composition.
BenQ G1 features High Resolution: 920k Swivel Screen display
Other new Features
Background Defocus Simulating the shallow depth of field effect of a DSLR camera, the G1 automatically captures two shots with different depth of field and layers them together to create a soft, blurry background that highlights the subject of your image.
In camera HDR: The HDR-Art feature applies the same mechanism as the HDR image enhancement technology to combine multiple photos with a dynamic range of exposure levels adjusted between the brightest and darkest areas of the photo. As a result, a stunning artistic image that is perfectly balanced in contrast and brightness is created.
other mode includes sketch-style image, color filters, Oil Painting Mode and MagiQ Filter.
