Editors' Comments

Canon has done it again with the EOS-1D Mark III, the latest iteration of their EOS line, and the fastest digicam on the market to date. This ultra-advanced digital SLR features 10 megapixels and Canon's Dual DIGIC III processors, which provide super-sharp photos and ultra-fast advanced operation. Plenty of features make this camera worth upgrading to: 63-zone exposure metering, Live View Mode, ISO sensitivity to 3200, and a brilliant wide-angle LCD are just some of the highlights. The dust and moisture-sealed magnesium body is fairly similar to the Mark II N, but features some new buttons and a larger screen, as well as a more user-friendly layout. This camera features a customizable My Menu option for storing often-used settings, making it easy to access the full creative control in your hands.
