Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III 21.1MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only)

Customer Review: Canon EOS 1Ds MarkIII
Summary: 5 Stars

Excellent tool for the professional photographer. As a pro with years of experience using 1D series cameras, moving up to the 1Ds was effortless but extremely rewarding. Was making money off of prints from the camera within 72 hours. Build quality and image quality is exceptional. Responsiveness for action sports is accurate, fast and very reliable. Even in low light situations where I am using it at ISO 3200 and f2.8 and wider so that I can use shutter speeds at 1/500 and 1/1000 in high school gymnasiums and pools. So far, studio shots have been blowing me away with the image clarity, contrast and color - especially with L series lenses. Just wish I didn't have to pay the price of a used small car for it and it's impact on increasing my equipment insurance.

Customer Review: A Technological Masterpiece (!!)
Summary: 5 Stars

I've had this camera for several weeks now and have been consistently been amazed by its capabilities. The image quality is extraordinary. I've been using it with a Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM Ultra Wide Angle Zoom Lens and have yet to be disappointed. The Mark III is complex enough that it prompted me to read the instruction manual, as well as another book ("Magic Lantern Guides: Canon EOS-1D Mark III EOS-1Ds Mark III"), from cover to cover - something I've never done before. The good news is that the Mark III is so coherent and well designed that it only takes reading the manual once to sort out how to make the most of all of its functions. Overall, this is an extraordinary camera.

Customer Review: ooooooohhhhhh wow
Summary: 5 Stars

So got this little baby a few days ago... it arrived right on time and was well packaged. Took it out for a little test spin the next day... all I can say is oh my god wow this thing is the best camer I have every had the privlige of using! I had the Canon Rebel XTi, the 1D mark II, and now this camera... it is by far the best camera I have ever used.... it takes fantastic photos (exposures were so good that they required minimal post production work), great color, responsive, and long battery life. This will be my primary camera for years to come... it is great! if you can stomach the price, you will not be disapointed one bit!!!

Customer Review: Short test
Summary: 5 Stars

I got try the camera for a few minutes in Germany today and I am absolutely amazed of how good it felt in my hands! I thought it might be heavy and bulky, but not at all, it is very ergonomical and I didn't find it that heavy either. The funktions are almoast endless, you could spend 2 days just getting to know all the things the thing can do. the 5 pics a second at full resolution is also pretty impressive. I am already sure that I want to be one of the first to call this Camera my own! I can't wait for the release!

Customer Review: Amazing camera.
Summary: 5 Stars

This is the best 35mm digital SLR I have ever used. The portability of a DSLR with the image quality of P22 maybe even P32 back and with out the hassle. Highly recommended for the Canon user that can afford to make the jump. Kudos on shipping as well, got it a day early, was one of the first - thanks.
