Canon's 21.1 megapixel EOS 1Ds Mark III: thanks, Amazon
Posted Aug 19th 2007 6:50AM by Thomas Ricker


Not only did Amazon loose the goods on Canon's EOS 40D, they've also activated the page for Canon's 21.1 megapixel EOS 1Ds Mark III for the pros. That's an 11 megapixel jump from their EOS 1D Mark III (pictured) announced in February... Shazam! Canon's hope is to supplant the medium-format cameras dominating fashion and commercial photo studios with this relatively light-weight, full-frame DSLR. We're talking a 36 x 24-mm self-cleaning CMOS sensor; a pair of DIGIC III image processers operating in parallel; improved 45-point advanced autofocus; 5fps continuous shooting (for bursts of up to 45 Large/Fine JPEGs or 15 RAW images); sRAW image support; 3-inch Live View LCD with 5x or 10x magnification; and CF, SD/SDHC storage options. Of course, it won't come cheap when (and if) it ships on December 10th. In fact, you'll be looking at $8,000 for the body (only) according to Amazon's site. While it's not an official announcement, it's close. Besides, we've been waiting for this thing to get official since we first heard about it in February. So expect one of two things to happen next: either Canon will officially announce in the next few days or Amazon will pull their pages.

Well... For 21MP, and the EOS system I would be shocked not to pay that much. ;-) And really: you get what you pay for!

And it's not just the camera that's expensive. You'll certainly have to buy some sort of super PC to process your images if they're that big.

Remember that the 1Ds was originally designed as a studio camera, for sports and action you have the normal 1D...

And how expensive was the first 1Ds when it was released? $8000 is a very normal price.
