    Redesigned both inside and out Canon's fourth generation 'small format' D-SLR sets new standards in every department. One day there will be a better D-SLR than this ... but we'll probably have to wait a while. If you're thinking that this is just another Canon pro-level D-SLR with a bit of a tidy-up there and few refinements here, then you’re seriously underestimating the tour de force that is the EOS-1D Mark III.

    If you can afford the cost of the 1D Mark III, and are a Canon shooter who doesn't absolutely need the higher resolution of the 16.6MP 1Ds Mark II, then this camera is a no-brainer. Nikon shooters who are reading this might even begin to second-guess their beloved brand, but with rumours flying about a possible D3, you'll probably want to wait and see if Canon's top competitor can match this.
