The Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III is an engineering tour de force which, true to the EOS-1 legacy, redefines the state of the art in no uncertain terms. EOS 1Ds Camera
from Canon features 21.1-megapixel full-frame Canon CMOS sensor that delivers astounding image quality and creates new photographic possibilities. This Canon Digital Camera has dual "DIGIC III" Image Processors that work in tandem to speed up data handling and camera operation, while further refining imaging performance. Tough, high-durability body and shutter designs, combined with the unique EOS Integrated Cleaning System, set new standards for professional dependability. Cutting-edge features such as a large 3.0-inch LCD monitor with Live View Function, and a fast, precise 45-point AF system-make the EOS 1Ds Mark III powerful and versatile. And, of course, the Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III is part of the unparalleled EOS System, which, with more than 50 EF lenses, 15 interchangeable focusing screens, and extensive wireless remote control and lighting accessories, is the most advanced and powerful digital photography system in the world.
