Sadly, I don't believe it supports RAW files yet.
I was Jonesing for the 1D X, BUT the 7D MkII came out and I've pre-ordered that. In several respects, it's equal or superior to the 1D X. I'm only worried about file quality, which we will see in the not too distant future. I figure that I can't go too far wrong at $1,800. If it fails the test, I'll sell the 5D3, buy a 1D X and use the 7D as my second body.

That review was great, showing what great results a good photographer could get with an iPhone. Of course, the noise in the night vision images is something that you can live with, given the very unusual shooting circumstances. However, with the scenics, it was ghastly. Given the teeny-tiny pixels, it's not surprising. Once again, the laws of physics did not get broken.
