I'm loving the 1DX BTW, the AF and IQ is amazing, files are sharper and cleaner than the 1D4 by a solid stop at ISO 1600 and beyond. Here is the original frame

Thanks Arash, and happy Holidays to you.
Your comments and critiques have been really helpful the last year.
A fun and very nice Kite photo!

[Richard Mc Donald]

Don't know if you've had much time as yet to play with the Case settings Arash but please do try setting the AF sensitivity to Responsive instead of Locked On (the old Slowest), your 600L II combined with the lightning quick focusing of the 1DX will pick any lost subject back up in a blink of an eye.

Seasonss greetings and many thanks for the two .pdf documents you made available on Noise Reduction and DPP.

Lovely image , Arash ! And Happy Holidays to you as well !

[WIlliam Maroldo]

I think the HA (hat angle, of course) is a bit off, but otherwise an excellent image! Merry Christmas.

[Bill Dix]

Yet another stunning Kite image, both with and without the hat. Best wishes to you for what remains of the holiday season, and a joyous New Year.

[Karl Egressy]

Excellent shots and the original one is a real cutie with the hat on, Arash. If you have a 500 lens or longer, I'm pretty sure the 1D X is an excellent choice for avian photography.

Happy Holidays to you as well Arash.
Wishing you lots of superb images with your new 1DX and 600mm.
You must have been a very good photog this year and Santa has rewarded you well!:S3:

Terrific capture, Arash. Glad you are so happy with your new toy. It appears to be performing extremely well for you. Hope you had some terrific holidays, and may the light be with you in 2013 and beyond.
