Comments about Canon Canon EOS-1Ds MARK-III "REFURBISHED " Digital SLR Camera with 21.1 Megapixel, 1.5x - 10x Zoom and 3" LCD Screen:

This camera has exceeded my expectations, it's performed flawlessly for 1000 plus shots in many different environments without fail. This isn't a camera for casual users, Canon recommends this camera for professional shooters.
For the photographer who stated in their review that the camera failed showing an error that caused problems with an assignment, sure it can happen on any camera and had nothing to do with the reconditioning, maybe next time that "professional photographer" should check for firmware up dates since they are out for the 1DS MarkIII before blaming Canon for their mistake...

garbage

Comments about Canon Canon EOS-1Ds MARK-III "REFURBISHED " Digital SLR Camera with 21.1 Megapixel, 1.5x - 10x Zoom and 3" LCD Screen:

this has to be THE height of absurdity for Canon in terms of completely botching what USED to be a great design. Purchased the camera for a project for a MAJOR shoe-manufacturer, and with less than 100frames on the body, got a fatal error-99, and the camera locked up. Got a loaner for the assignment, and ended up with soft to out-of-focus images... thanks Canon. For an [$] pro-body, you guys really threw this one in the toilet... DO NOT BUY... wait for next gen, and PRAY they fix the focus-issues...

Comments about Canon Canon EOS-1Ds MARK-III "REFURBISHED " Digital SLR Camera with 21.1 Megapixel, 1.5x - 10x Zoom and 3" LCD Screen:

Just back from San Francisco, first outing with this new jewel. Still learning all it can do but so far it's been great. I'm not a pro just an avid amateur and this is my first full frame. So far it's doing everything I expected and more, but for this kind of money I think it should.
