Canon announced its new professional DSLR with much fanfare and ensuring that everyone knew that (despite appearances) the Mk III was a new camera built from the ground up. "The EOS-1D Mark III represents a complete reappraisal of everything Canon has...
Handling, frame rate performance, build quality, low and high ISO image quality, feature set, metering
Servo AF not reliable, accurate exposure on LCD difficult, price, weight, limited exposure modes
The Canon EOS 1D Mk III looks unrivaled in terms of its burst shooting prowess and noise performance at higher ISOs, however a hefty price tag is joined by a hefty weight of 1.33kg that might put you off
On the face of it the camera looks similar to the Mk II model it supercedes, the lines of the camera across the pentaprism housing are typically Canon and, when you pick the camera up, apart from the weight, the attention to detail in terms of handling...

Canon's EOS-1D Mark III offers a luxurious cocktail of high-resolution, extremely low noise, blazingly fast burst shooting, abundant customisation and a build quality and ergonomic design among the best you'll find in today's camera market
Extremely fast, 10-megapixel continuous shooting ; Very low noise ; Highly customisable ; Well-designed body with weather sealing ; 76mm LCD ; Abundant optional accessories
Heavy ; May be too large for people with small hands
However, where this camera really shines is its ultra-lownoise. Even at its highest sensitivity setting of ISO 6,400, we wereable to make pleasing prints. On a monitor you'll see a covering offine, multicoloured grain, but there's still an impressive...
At lower sensitivities, images are extremely clean, and noise doesn'teven begin to show up significantly on monitors until you reach ISO800

While the shell of the EOS 1D Mark III still feels as though you could hammer tent pegs in with it, every other feature from the Mark II model seems to have been considered for enhancement, relocation or removal. The results are fantastic

It's the world's fastest digital SLR, but are the results as breathtaking as the frame rate or is it all just hot air?
Handling, impressive noise control at high ISO sensitivities, metering accuracy, wide (if a little daunting) range of custom functions, good bundled software
AF accuracy on fast-moving objects, slight softness to unprocessed images, price tag
There's much to like about the EOS-1D Mark III. The handling, for example, is sublime. The complex button pressing of the 1D MkII has completely disappeared, replaced instead with a simplified layout that's really easy to navigate through the MkIII's...
Metering accuracy and noise suppression are also virtually peerless, I can't think of another DSLR that's as consistently accurate and grain-free with its results.
