EOS-1D Mark IV Essential Accessories

Memory Cards

8GB Compact Flash memory cards are probably the best deal right now, but prices are falling and now fast UDMA 16GB cards like the Sandisk 16GB Extreme UDMA 60MB/s Compact Flash Card are becoming a great deal and less expensive than the slower (45MB/sec or 300X) Extreme IV's. The Canon EOS-1D Mark IV can use these new UDMA cards. If you're going to shoot movies, you'll want as much memory as you can get. Consider larger 32 GB Compact Flash cards.

Here's a handy table to compare the different speed specs by different memory card manufacturers.

	Sandisk Model	MB/Sec.	Lexar speed
Non-UDMA	Ultra II	15 mb/sec.	100X
	Ultra II	20 mb/sec.	133X
	Extreme III	30 mb/sec.	200X
	Extreme IV	45 mb/sec.	300X
UDMA	Ducati (UDMA)	45 mb/sec.	300X
	Extreme (UDMA)	60 mb/sec.	400X
	Extreme Pro (UDMA)	90 mb/sec.	600X

Batteries

Another good idea is to have at least one extra battery - this camera uses the Canon LP-E4 Battery Pack Less expensive alternatives to Canon's LP-E4 batteries can be found too, although in my experience the Canon batteries hold their charge longer, are built better (especially the seals), and live longer than the alternatives.

EOS-1D Mark IV Accessory Updates

October 20, 2009 Enhanced Wireless Controller press release

Canon brings enhanced wireless control to the latest EOS-1 Series and EOS 5D Mark II

London, 20 October 2009 - Canon today announced the launch of two new Wireless File Transmitters to improve workflow efficiency and place greater control and flexibility in the hands of professional photographers using both wired and wireless networks.

The WFT-E2, designed for the newly-launched EOS-1D Mark IV, and the WFT-E4 II designed for the award-winning EOS 5D Mark II, allow photographers to transfer image files securely to a computer or server, control the camera remotely and connect to WiFi enabled devices to view images directly from the camera.

Transfer images securely
Transferring images from the camera to a PC, external hard drive or FTP server is made simpler and more secure. Both the WFT-E2 II and WFT-E4 II support high security WPA2-PSK authentication and AES encryption over wireless networks. IPsec encryption is also used as standard in both wired and wireless networks to ensure that every photographer's personal IP is protected.

Remote control shooting
The WFT-E2 II and WFT-E4 II allow photographers to communicate with their camera remotely using a number of different methods. Using the included EOS Utility software, photographers can easily browse and control a wide range of settings on the camera body over a network connection. The EOS Utility allows photographers to control EOS cameras and capture images remotely. This is a major benefit for studio photographers who need to fine tune manual settings and shoot images for instant review on a large screen or sports photographers who may use more complex, multi-camera installations to get the shots they need.

The WFT Server takes full advantage of Java-enabled internet browsers, providing more opportunities for photographers to change camera settings like ISO, focus, aperture and shutter speed, from a computer or portable wireless device such as a PDA or smartphone. This allows photographers to control their cameras whilst on the move or when in remote areas where carrying a computer may be impractical. One camera can be accessed from up to three different computers or mobile devices, allowing photographers convenient and flexible remote control over their photography.

These new wireless file transmitters take remote capture one step further for professional photographers who want to take exciting pictures more efficiently. Through the linked shooting function, up to ten slave cameras can be wirelessly connected to a master unit up to 100m away. The master camera will then trigger the slaves, allowing specialists like wildlife and sports photographers to capture a subject from a multitude of different angles.

Connectivity
The WFT-E2 II and WFT-E4 II offer WiFi Protected Set-up (WPS) - or alternatively an easy-to-follow wizard - taking photographers through a simple step-by-step process to connect the camera to any available network in range. The WFT-E2 II and WFT-E4 II comply with 802.11b and g standards, as well as the more stable 802.11a wireless standard used at many large sporting events like the Olympic Games. They also feature an integrated Ethernet LAN port for high-speed wired connectivity.

A USB port and host function also allows photographers to connect several accessories including a Bluetooth dongle for wireless connectivity to GPS, enabling them to geo-tag images for future reference. Other connectivity options include connection directly to a compatible USB compliant GPS device or an external hard disk drive for additional image storage, improving the workflow for many photographers.

Availability
The WFT-E2 II and WFT-E4 II will be available from December 2009.

At launch, firmware updates for the EOS 5D Mark II (for the WFT-E4 II), EOS-1D Mark III and EOS-1Ds Mark III (for the WFT-E2 II) will be made available via the Canon Europe website.
