The EOS-1Ds Mark III is
great! The ability to capture
fine image detail is of paramount
importance in my work, and this
camera truly delivers. What also
impressed me is the precise
rendering of tonal nuance over
a wide range of light values,
which is equally important in my
images. The new camera fea-
tures—like the bigger 3.0-inch
LCD, Live View Function, and
improved wireless capabilities—
are exactly what I’ve wanted for
tabletop work.
A superior
tool… a joy to
use.

Large 3.0" LCD Monitor with Live View Function
The 3.0-inch LCD monitor on the EOS-1Ds Mark III provides
the photographer with a large, bright, detailed view of
images and graphical data. The bigger image area makes
it easier than ever to confirm capture, check memory card
contents, confirm shooting parameters, and access all
menu options.
Moreover, the EOS-1Ds Mark III features a sophisticated
Live View Function, which makes the 3.0-inch LCD monitor
a real-time finder. When the Live View Function is enabled,
the reflex mirror is
locked up and the
shutter opened. The
image output from the
CMOS sensor will be
displayed in real time
on the LCD monitor
at 100% coverage. A
selectable portion of the image can be magnified by 5x
or 10x to aid in precise manual focusing. Manual focus,
exposure check, composing, and shooting can all be
accomplished in this mode.
Live View Function is convenient for tripod-mounted shoot-
ing, macro work, and other situations in which it would
be a physical strain to keep the eye at the viewfinder.
The Live View Function image can also be displayed on
a TV monitor, which is ideal for showing images, as they
are being composed, to clients and portrait subjects.
Highlight Tone Priority
Activated via a Custom Function, the Highlight Tone
Priority mode employs sophisticated processing algorithms
to preserve greater detail in image highlight areas—a
perennial problem for digital photographers, especially
those who work in bright sunlight or contrasty studio
lighting. Highlight Tone Priority actually expands the
available range of capture in the highlights, yet it exacts
no penalties in either shadow detail or camera perform-
ance. It benefits photographers who shoot RAW images
as well as those who rely on in-camera processing.
Stunning Image Quality
The EOS-1Ds Mark III features a new Canon full-frame
21.1-megapixel CMOS sensor. Compared to typical smaller
digital camera sensors, the Canon full-frame sensor can
accommodate a tremendous pixel count while maintaining
larger individual pixel site size. Larger sites improve light
gathering capability, enabling the sensor to produce a
cleaner, more noise-free image. The Canon full-frame
sensor thus delivers ultra-high-resolution images of
exacting precision with unrivaled color richness and
tonal accuracy.

with the EOS-1Ds Mark III, is
powered by the camera body,
and is durable and weather-
