What a sound.
Puts submachine gun like tommy in complete shame...

That, i agree with.

Reminds me of a post in another forum. Guy buys a camera + spare batteries. That evening he so loved the sound of the shutter at high speed he played all night. Result camera returned for repair before he had even put one pic on CF card. :D :D :D

Seeing as the mark III is supposed to be good for at least 300,000 shots the guy would be certified by the time he came to the end!

Hi Don, Did you have any luck on the lottery tonight, I know you said you were going to buy more lottery tickets, if you hit the jackpot perhaps you could buy a 1D MKIII and my kit:)

I'm eagerly waiting for my MKIII to arrive, I've provisionally sold most of my Nikon kit now so I'm committed to Canon now.

Cheers

Nick

Nick,

No win again :(

I would not know what to do with that frame rate. The X rarely moves off single shot. I think I need A/F long lenses first to replace my AIS lot. I tend to use my X like a digital F3. :D :D

Further to the press release you were sent on 22 February, pricing has now been confirmed.

The updated press release is attached for you. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Pricing and availability
The EOS 1D Mark III priced at £3049.99 RRP inc. VAT.Availability TBC.

Still reckon it'll be £2500 in 6 months time, maybe a lot earlier after the initial panic buying/demand.

Given that Nikon have announced the replacement for the D40 (the D40X) less than 4 months after the D40 came out, I'd say 6 months is a long time in digital photography these days. I'll wager that the new Canon will be under £2,500 by then.

I just found video's on You Tube link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glhMI...elated&search=
