Canon introduced a new flagship digital SLR for sports photography this morning, the 10 frames per second, 16MP EOS 1D Mark IV. The 1D Mark IV will sell for $4,999 body only and ship to U.S. dealers in late December.
Just a little over two weeks ago my jaw dropped even harder when I took a prototype of the Canon 1D MKIV outdoors to test it at night. I was on the road, it was late and I had just rushed back to my hotel to get to the unit.

Nothing prepared me for what happened next.
I set the ASA to high – and I pointed it towards an area lit by a single flood light. The image was overexposed by 4-5 stops. I then started to play with the settings, pointing my light into an area in complete shadow (my eye saw nothing but black) but on the rear of the LCD I saw sharp, green leaves as crystal clear as if it were shot in daylight.

I hear the question all the time when I talk about photojournalism education, photojournalism internships and photojournalism careers.
Everybody knows about the what’s happening in the newspaper industry, broadcasts outlets and mainstream media all together. If there are no jobs, scant freelance opportunities and outright derision from the hate-the-media crowd, why bother?
Ironically, there are more reasons — and more important reasons — now than ever to bother being a true professional photojournalist, video journalist, multi-media journalist, visual communications journalist or whatever you want to call it these days.
Since its release, the Canon 5D Mark II has become the de facto video camera for many photojournalists. Despite some technical challenges, like the ability to f
