Canon EOS-1D Mark III, 10 mp, 10 frames per second. The world?s fastest D-SLR - GoFuckYourself.com

Canon EOS-1D Mark III, 10 mp, 10 fps

Pre-PMA 2007: Canon has today announced the latest generation of their EOS-1D series. The Mark III has a ten megapixel APS-H (1.3x FOV crop) CMOS sensor and can shoot at ten frames per second. It features the updated DIGIC III image processor, a new 19 area Auto Focus system, up to ISO 6400 and a 3.0" LCD monitor (with a live view feature). The Mark III should ship in April for US$ 3999. As has become 'the norm' with Canon we had no information on this product before announcement, so no preview or analysis. I'm sure many were expecting an EOS 30D update, well not yet.

Phil: As has become Canon's approach we had no information on this camera before embargo, this lack of trust they show with their most important (and reliable) publications only continues to damage their image within the industry.

The world?s fastest D-SLR ? remastered
EOS-1D Mark III: The new benchmark

Canon today sets new standards for professional photography with the launch of the EOS-1D Mark III. Delivering 10 frames per second at 10.1 Megapixels for a maximum burst of 110 Large JPEG images (30 in RAW), the EOS-1D Mark III replaces the EOS-1D Mark II N as the world?s fastest digital SLR. Dual ?DIGIC III? processors drive the camera?s high speed, high resolution performance, and bring 14-bit image processing to the EOS series for the first time.

A ground-up redesign introduces a host of new features and advancements to Canon?s flagship EOS-1 series, including a 3.0? LCD with Live View mode, EOS Integrated Cleaning System, new auto focus system with 19 cross-type sensors, and 63-zone exposure metering. The camera?s APS-H size (28.1 x 18.7 mm) CMOS sensor enables a wider 100-3200 ISO range as standard, expandable to L:50 and H:6400.

?The EOS-1D Mark III represents a complete reappraisal of everything Canon has learned over the past 20 years of EOS development,? said Tsunemasa Ohara, Senior General Manager, Camera Development Center, Canon Inc. ?In building this camera, we started with a blank canvas. Every facet of the photographic process has been refined, every design decision re-evaluated to bring us to this point: a camera that combines familiar EOS ergonomics with a vastly enhanced specification. Our engineers are overjoyed with the result.?

Key features

* 10.1 Megapixel APS-H CMOS sensor
* 10 fps continuous shooting for up to 110 frames
* Dual ?DIGIC III? processors
* New auto focus system with 19 cross type sensors
* EOS Integrated Cleaning System
* ISO 3200 (expandable to H:6400)
* 3.0? LCD with Live View mode
* Wider, brighter viewfinder
* Picture Style1

The choice of professionals

The EOS-1D line has enjoyed massive popularity among the world?s leading sports, reportage and wildlife photographers, with international wire agencies AFP, Getty and Reuters choosing Canon for their photographers. ?The people at Canon are great to work with because they listen to photographers. It?s their attention to detail and the pace of innovation that makes EOS the system of choice,? explained Stephen Munday, Director of Operations ? Editorial, Getty Images.

Exceptional image quality

Canon?s dual ?DIGIC III? processors deliver unprecedented levels of speed, responsiveness and image quality. Ready to shoot within 0.2 seconds of power on, the EOS-1D Mark III can capture and process over 100 Megapixels of image data per second, rapidly clearing the image buffer to allow up to 110 frames in one burst. Images are processed at 14 bits for a total colour depth of up to 16,384 tones per pixel, compared to 4,096 tones from 12 bit images.

The third generation CMOS sensor incorporates a new pixel design that works together with on-chip noise reduction circuitry to ensure high image quality at ISO 3200. The option to expand to H:6400 will benefit professionals working in news and sports locations where the use of flash is not permitted or desired.

Greater precision, more control

Canon has redesigned its auto focus system to include 19 cross-type sensors with sensitivity up to f/2.8, spread out across the AF area to better accommodate off-centre subjects. An additional 26 AF assist points are used to aid AF tracking for improved accuracy.

Responding to professional photographer requests, a dedicated AF button on the back of the camera allows users to instantly switch auto focus on or off while keeping their eye on the viewfinder. The viewfinder is now brighter and offers a wider angle of view. The camera?s new 63-zone metering system gives photographers greater level of control over exposure.

New LCD with Live View

The bright 3.0? LCD monitor provides 230K pixels resolution for precise framing and reviewing of shots. New to EOS, Live View mode enables photographers to frame without having to look through the viewfinder ? particularly useful for shooting from awkward positions.

The menu system on the EOS-1D Mark III has been completely redesigned to take advantage of the LCD size ? menus are easier to read and use. A choice of 57 custom functions gives photographers more options for customising camera settings to their daily working requirements. A new My Menu option allows photographers to store frequently used settings on a separate menu for faster access. Settings for new accessories such as the Speedlite 580EX II and Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E2 ? also released today ? can be controlled directly from the LCD.

Total reliability

The EOS-1D Mark III incorporates a range of practical enhancements for the working photographer. Shutter durability has been increased by 50% to 300,000 cycles. The body is protected by a magnesium alloy casing with dust and moisture resistant seals. The EOS Integrated Cleaning System provides further reliability by reducing sensor dust, minimising the need for manual cleaning on assignment. To avoid corruption of captured images, a warning appears on the LCD and an alarm sounds if the memory card door is opened while images are still being written. Interfaces include video out (for display in both NTSC and PAL formats) and USB 2.0.

The live view feature will be very cool. I have the Mark II and will most likely upgrade when this is released.

I am a Nikon guy too but that camera looks badass...

If your shame is so severe that you must pitch the old Mark II, please toss it in my direction.

I've never had a prob . . no flash will keep up anyway . . I was shooting watersports with one of the slowest cameras around for years . . remember jp: I've been shooting content since 2000 . . we did fine with cames we had . .

ahhh you are not that old..are you ?
when i first started shooting i used a regular point and shoot digital camera, it had a delay of like 5 seconds, but i learned to use it properly so no problems..no watersport though..
i am happy with my D2X, it has been very reliable for me, never one issue..and i really like the low light AF and high iso capabilities...

Smart. I still love the 20d

Hello Tim how are you?

justinsain · 02-22-2007, 11:15 AM

Since I shoot a little bit of everything this camera would definitely fill my needs. I'm currently using a 20D and it's my second one after burning up the first one in less than a year. I really need something more sturdy with a longer life. Because of the subjects I shoot, speed is a top priority and this thing is fast.

For sports it's a given you need a fast camera but it can also come in handy when shooting models. For plain old generic porn you could probably get by with one of the higher end " point and shoot " type cameras but if you're looking to get creative and make your pictures stand out, the more tools you have to work with the more creative you can get.

Here are two shots with my 20D. One is the big wreck at last weekends Busch Race and the other is from a past model shoot. For the model shot I wanted to capture her in mid air in full stride. It's a difficult shot to get just right and one that usually needs to be done many times just to get one good one. I had her jump only a few times because it had been a long day and she was beat. The 20D is pretty slow and would only get about three frames per jump and this one was the best. Not the best expression and she's touched ground but it was better than the others. If I had this new Canon I would have had a much better chance in capturing that perfect picture.

You can only do so much with what you have to work with so the more you have the more you can do. It's that simple.
