5 out of 5 stars Excellent camera body.   February 26, 2010
D. Ranucci
This is by far, the best camera body I have ever used. In my experience, Canon has always made quality products.


1 out of 5 stars LEMON   December 12, 2009

I was happy as a little child when the camera arrived at my door steps. I paired the camera with Canon 20-35mm 2.8L lens and went out to "test drive" the camera. After taking about few hundred images, I came back home and analyzed them. At first the images looked OK, but after looking them at 50% and over, I realized that every image has a weird banding issue. There were vertical lines with about 10 pixels spacing. I heard about some banding issues in the past with this model, but those problems were at higher ISO. My camera had the problem at any ISO, in both JPG and RAW format. I also tried different CF and SD cards, different computers to download images, different lenses, different setting, etc. Nothing could make the problem go away. I spent 3 hours with Canon technical support and they could not help me. I also noticed that the camera was underexposing 2/3 to 1, and that 580EX on this camera was working badly. It was almost impossible to find the right flash exposure. I compared the images from this camera and my old Canon PS G2 and G2 produced far superior images. My guess is that I got a LEMON. I returned my camera for full refund. If you are buying one of these camera used (I don't believe that you can find a new one anymore, but I might be wrong), make sure that the seller accepts return.


1 out of 5 stars dissappointing   September 23, 2009

This camera is very dissappointing. On a field trip w/16 other photographers the only 2 cameras that failed in intermittent weather were the 5dmark11. They were covered and protected. I don't believe this can handle any weather. May be good in the studio but don't use in incliment weather. Im very sorry to say as I was really excited to buy this camera.


5 out of 5 stars You need this if you have kids   July 8, 2009

It's taken a long time to discover this, but if you have kids, you really need a sports camera. Like most first time parents, I started getting serious about digital slr's when we had our baby. My first dslr camera was a rebel xt, then I upgraded to the 30D. They're both fantastic cameras, but something was not quite right. On a hunch, I recently bought the Mark IIn. I finally have the right camera for the job.

Children do not stay still. The instant you point a camera at them, they will move (typically towards you), there are no exceptions. So with that in mind, why are you snapping pictures of moving children with a camera designed for still studio portraits? Exactly! Wrong gear for the job. You end up with about maybe a 5% keeper rate. How many blurry or non-focused shots do you have? How many shots do you have of moments just passed, and you missed it because you were waiting for your camera to auto focus?

Sports camera such as the eos 1D series are made to shoot fast action... Like children. The unit's auto focus with the ability to track moving subjects quickly means you will have a much higher keeper rate. Keep in mind that nothing replaces basic photography skills.



5 out of 5 stars Do we really need the Mark III?   July 16, 2007

I have to say that the Mark III for $1000 to $2000 more may not offer that much for the money. I have had the 1D Mark II N for a year and have truly enjoyed the flexibility of this PRO camera. To date, after 1000's of pics taken, I still have no sensor dust.

Other than the 1Ds Mark II and its 16 MP, this camera can to everything a pro or pro-amateur photographer will need.

It's truly a beauty and certainly fast enough to get any shot necessary.
