Buy Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III
The Canon presented in conjunction with the EOS 40D EOS 1Ds Mark III, the reflex devoted to professional photographers who will replace the EOS 1Ds Mark II.
The feature that points more to launch the Canon 1Ds is the new full frame sensor Mpixel from 21.1, the first to have passed the “wall” of 20 Mpixel reflex in the world.
The quality of the sensor are not limited only to size but, in fact this third generation of CMOS are characterized by a new design of the positioning of pixels, 6.4 microns hours away and the new noise reduction placed directly on the sensor.
The system conversion analog / digital, as in the EOS 40D, 14-bit, which allows an increase of identification color per channel providing a much greater detail than the 1Ds Mark II. From the point of view of the new sensor sensitivity allows you to select between ISO 100 and 1600 expandable to 50 as a minimum and a maximum 3200.
The two systems DIGIC image processing III of which is equipped the new Canon came home, working in parallel to speed image processing to 14 bits, ensuring a high quality finish and an overall energy savings.
The autofocus system to 45 points is one of the strengths of the new 1Ds, ensuring a high accuracy in any environment. The system is based on 19 points with high precision and support 26, 19 are arranged in such a way as to have 9 points with focus internal and external focus with 9 than 1 Central.
On specific request of users who work in fields and sports fields nature has been implemented to make micro adjustments to the autofocus system for each lens mounted, they remain in memory in the camera and will be recalled whenever you installed your goal.
The cleaning of the sensor already seen in other series EOS cameras has been improved efficiency compared to the first versions, and consists of a sheet of glass placed on top of the sensor with the dual purpose of protection from dust and filter IR. The plate vibrates for about 3.5 second is that when the camera switches off ensuring the elimination of dust particles which are then received by members surrounding areas.
Again as if the 40D sensor on the tracks remained, they would be identified and mapped, so can be eliminated automatically by the software supplied in post production.
It could not miss the live view, the system that allows direct viewing on the screen on which the Canon counts a lot, considering it as a strength in natural areas for the high speed of snaps and low noise that can guarantee. It is a shame that the quality of the screen is installed decidedly low, the fact is 1D is equipped with a screen from 3 “but with a resolution of only 230000 pixels and a maximum viewing angle of 140 °, very few if you want to base the fire all on the screen.
The quality is constructive style Canon, with the body, structure and mirror box magnesium, and sealed joints to resist dust and humidity. The duration zaklopa was increased by 50% compared to the previous version, which ensures the best performance up to 300000 shots.
The EOS 1Ds Mark III is certainly a camera high level, much higher than the progenitrice and that ensures that the picture quality far reached only by medium format. What leaves me somewhat ‘puzzled is the overcrowding of novelty at all costs that took insert, behavior that leads to the controsensi as the live view on a screen with low resolution, a solution which we could certainly do without . Do competitor Nikon that certainly will not wait for long, we can only incoronarla as the queen of reflex.
It will be available from November 2007 at a price of $ 7,999, the same the EOS 1Ds Mark II.
