Canon EOS-1D Mark III First Impressions Review

The Canon EOS-1D Mark III introduces several leaps in technology, including something for nearly every kind of professional photographer. The most striking is its combination of speed and file size – it shoots 10.1-megapixel images at 10 frames per second – a clear advantage in sports and photojournalism. It adds live preview on a 3-inch LCD for studio photographers and a reduced-size RAW file for wedding photographers. Canon reps at the Photo Marketing Association trade show said the price hasn't been set, but they emphasized that the camera it replaces – the 1D Mark II N – goes for $4000.
