An update to the tremendously popular EOS-1Ds, the EOS-1Ds Mark II is a must have for those seeking to capture huge, beautiful images, fast. With an all new, full frame 16.7 megapixel CMOS image sensor, combined with Canon's blazing DIGIC II Image Processor, the EOS-1Ds Mark II captures up to 32 consecutive shots at speeds up to 4 frames-per-second, and has dramatically decreased startup and card-writing times in comparison to the EOS-1Ds. These improvements are complemented by Canon's renowned build quality for reliability in even the most rugged conditions. Compatibility with over 50 EF Lenses, in addition to the entire line of EOS accessories, including the new Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E1 accessory easily makes the EOS-1Ds Mark II the most remarkable combination of resolution and speed in the history of digital SLRs.

Canon EOS 1DS 11.1 Megapixel Digital SLR
Review of Canon EOS 1Ds by  Orrr83

Advantages: Full Frame sensor, (Practically) Indestructable, Weatherproof, Clean Images
Disadvantages: Expensive, Heavy, Now superceded

...The 1Ds is built to take the worst a professional photographer can throw at it and more, and still keep on going. Physically the camera weighs around 1.5kg without a lens, being made out of magnesium alloy and steel, thats understandable, and like canons other EOS 1 series the camera is heavily waterproofed, speaking to a photographer once who once, accidently of course, dropped his 1Ds into a river, retrieved it immediatly he found his lens damaged, but the camera shrugged it off, no marks or water damage. But what really makes people excited about this camera is it's CMOS sensor, using less power than a CCD, battery life is excellent, around 600-700 images. At just over 11 Megapixels the camera's resolution is among the highest on the market, almost 4 times the resolution of Nikons D1. The physical size of the sensor is the same... Read review

Canon EOS 1Ds Mark 11
Review of Canon EOS 1D Mark II N by  zippernipper

Advantages: 16.7 mega pixel, 36 x 24mm (35mm film full frame)
Disadvantages: Very Expensive

...This camera out ways them all, with an impressive 16.7megapixels it out ways any SLR on the market. The camera offers a huge amount 17.2-megapixel, high-sensitivity, large single-plate CMOS sensor (16.7 million effective pixels) delivering image resolutions as high as 4,992 x 3,328 pixels. Improved shutter durability, rated at 200,000 shutter cycles in the EOS-1Ds Mark II. 2.0-inch LCD monitor for image playback and review. RAW and JPEG image file formats plus much much more. Lets not mastaken that this camera is for the rich/proffesional hobist, who knows how to take a quality picture. Its easy to use but can get harder when you place a large lense on. The picture quality is superb with 16.7 megapixels the pictures you produce are brilliant. The battery lasts for about 3hrs but you will need an extra one if you... Read review

Canon EOS grows up
Review of Canon EOS 1Ds by  Frisky40

Advantages: Resolution and speed unparalled.
Disadvantages: Price.

...Since Canon first introduced the EOS 1D I have been waiting expectantly for a mature and professional version of the camera to be launched. This finally is a product to be proud of. It delivers speed and quality that the professional camera man will really appreciate. From a technology point of view there are no features that I am aware of that it does not support. The list is too long to mention here. This is one exceptional piece of camera gear. Canon have come a long way in the digital world sincetheir first IXUS was launched in 1998. As for this product the only feature missing is to make it more robust and able to handle extreme weather conditions. But for now its the best camera that I have had the pleasure of using. The only small grudge is the price but then I guess what would I expect to pay for something as amazing as this. My... Read review
