A Canon EOS 1D Mark IV oferece avançadas possibilidades de processamento de imagem de vídeo e fotografia para profissionais exigentes. Com um sensor tamanho APS-H de 16.1 megapixels, dois processadores de imagem DIGIC 4 e um sistema AF de 45 pontos completamente reprojetado, a 1D Mark IV se baseia no sucesso da lendária série 1D com maior performance ISO (até ISO 102.400), gravação de vídeo HD e disparo contínuo a 10 quadros por segundo.
O sistema autofoco totalmente novo da 1D Mark IV emprega 45 pontos de AF, 39 dos quais são do tipo cruzado. Todos os pontos de foco podem ser selecionados de forma automática ou manual e programados para prioridade baseada na orientação de retrato ou paisagem da câmera. O novo AI Servo II AF usa avançados algoritmos para rastrear assuntos em movimento com precisão, até sob as condições fotográficas mais difíceis. Um sistema de medição de 63 zonas aprimorado analisa o quadro para melhorar a exposição.
Vídeo HD 1080p real pode ser gravado a 24 (23.976), 25 ou 30 (29.97) quadros por segundo para maior compatibilidade com sistemas de edição não-linear. Vídeo HD 720p e 640 x 480 SD são capturados a 50 ou 60 (59.94) quadros por segundo, oferecendo o método mais suave de gravar assuntos de ação. Um microfone mono integrado grava áudio com vídeo espontâneo, enquanto uma entrada estéreo de 3,5mm oferece opções de maior qualidade para aplicações profissionais.
Recursos adicionais incluem construção em liga de magnésio vedada contra o ambiente, limpeza integrada de sensor e um obturador estimado em 300.000 exposições. Com tudo isso e muito mais, a Canon EOS 1D Mark IV representa uma solução completa e foto e vídeo para videomakers e fotógrafos profissionais.
- Autofoco de Precisão de Alta Velocidade
- A EOS-1D Mark IV possui um sensor de Área AF recém desenvolvido de alta precisão com 45 pontos selecionáveis manualmente incluindo 39 pontos de AF do tipo cruzado de alta precisão. O novo rastreamento de foco AI Servo II AF possui algoritmos aprimorados que ajudam a melhorar a estabilidade, confiabilidade e foco não importa a situação. Seja fotografando um jogo de futebol corrido ou fazendo close-up de uma abelha em uma flor em movimento durante fotografia macro, o AI Servo II AF ajuda a assegurar foco nítido o tempo todo. A seleção de ponto de AF foi aprimorada também. Os fotógrafos podem selecionar seu próprio ponto através do multi-controlador da câmera ou Dial Principal/Dial de Controle Rápido. A seleção automática é tão simples quanto pressionar um botão. Com funções personalizadas, os fotógrafos podem selecionar seus próprios pontos de foco para selecionar automaticamente entre fotografia horizontal e vertical e podem até escolher ter o foco primário suportado por pontos de foco adjacentes para maior precisão com assuntos em movimento.
- Poderosa Sensibilidade ISO
- A EOS-1D Mark IV possui uma faixa de ISO padrão de 100 - 12800 com uma faixa expandida de 50 a 102400. As capacidades de redução de ruído combinadas dos Dois Processadores de Imagem DIGIC 4 e sensor Canon CMOS ajudam a assegurar que mesmo a uma configuração de ISO 102400, o ruído é mantido a um mínimo. Essa capacidade amplamente expandida oferece uma gama ampliada de opções de fotografia do mundo real, especialmente em situações com a luz disponível ou de pouca luz. Uma baixa velocidade ISO pode ser útil, por exemplo, ao fotografar cenas de alto contraste em aberturas grandes. Altas luzes estouradas, como em um vestido de noiva, podem ser evitadas e os fotógrafos podem usar aberturas mais amplas para controlar profundidade de campo de maneiras impossíveis em ajustes ISSO mais altos. Além disso a EOS-1D Mark IV possui o ALO (Auto Lighting Optimizer) que ajusta automaticamente o brilho e o contraste durante o processamento de imagem para minimizar a necessidade de pós-produção cara e demorada. O ALO está disponível na maioria dos modos de fotografia, incluindo o modo Manual e pode ser aplicado a imagens RAW usando o software Digital Photo Professional da Canon.
- Gravação de Vídeo HD
-
A EOS-1D Mark IV captura vídeo com todos os benefícios de fotografar com uma SLR EOS digital. A área de gravação HD na EOS-1D Mark IV é de aproximadamente 27,9 x 15,7mm, similar quando comparada com a área de gravação de 24,89 x 18,65mm de filme de cinema Super 35. Ao gravar vídeo com uma câmera de sensor grande, os fotógrafos e os videomakers tiram vantagem de recursos criativos nativos a fotografia SLR. Junto com seus controles manuais, a EOS-1D Mark IV permite uso total de lentes Canon EF, incluindo grande angular, macro, super-telefoto, inclinação-deslocamento e olho de peixe, oferecendo uma gama de profundidade de campo e outras opções de captura criativa até então reservadas apenas a fotografia. O vídeo HD resultante se destaca por suas incríveis características, excepcional capacidade de captura sob pouca luz com sua ampla faixa de ISSO e pretos limpos e profundos com ruído praticamente impossível de detectar.
Ao gravar vídeo HD nos modos AE, a EOS-1D Mark IV emprega a medição de média central ponderada para ajudar a assegurar exposição de filme estável com a câmera selecionando automaticamente a velocidade de ISO, obturador e abertura. O controle de exposição totalmente manual também está disponível ao gravar vídeo com a câmera no modo Manual.
O vídeo pode ser capturado em resolução 1920 x 1080 em taxas de quadro de 24 (23.976), 25 ou 30 (29.97) quadros por segundo, para até 4GB por clipe. Os filmes são salvos em arquivos MOV e podem ser vistos em Full HD com saída HDMI. Outros tamanhos de gravação incluem HD em 1280 x 720 (50/60 (59.94) qps) ou SD/VGA a 640 x 480 (50/60 (59.94) qps). A EOS-1D Mark IV possui um microfone integrado para gravação mono simples e som estéreo pode ser gravado através de um microfone externo auto-alimentado.
- Captura de Imagem em Alta Resolução
- A EOS-1D Mark IV possui um sensor CMOS de alta resolução tamanho APS-H de 16.1 Megapixels (com um efeito multiplicador de distância focal de 1.3x) e Dois Processadores de Imagem DIGIC 4 que podem processar imagens em resolução máxima continuamente a até 10 quadros por segundo. A combinação de sensor CMOS e dois Processadores de Imagem DIGIC 4 ajudam a assegurar imagens suaves, detalhadas e refinadas que são gravadas de forma rápida, precisa e confiável. A combinação impressionante de velocidade, qualidade e performance torna a EOS-1D Mark IV a mais importante entre os fotógrafos profissionais, incluindo fotógrafos de esportes e um olhar familiar nos eventos esportivos profissionais.
- Disparo a 10 Quadros por Segundo
- O obturador resistente e de alta velocidade da EOS-1D Mark IV pode fotografar até quadros por segundo (qps) por até 28 arquivos RAW consecutivos ou 121 JPEGs de alta resolução quando utilizados em conjunto com os cartões CF UDMA (Ultra Direct Memory Access) Modo 6. O espetacular sensor AF de alta velocidade e 45 pontos novo da EOS-1D Mark IV trava e mantém o foco, assegurando que a câmera se mantenha com seu obturador incrível.
- LCD ClearView II de 3,0"
- A EOS-1D Mark IV possui um novo LCD ClearView II VGA de 3,0" e alta resolução. A tela possui resolução de 920.000 pontos e oferece um novo nível de nitidez com um ângulo de visão de 160°. Seu performance é admirável, não apenas para confirmar o foco e a composição, mas também na composição e fotografia no modo Live View, ou ao gravar vídeo. Ela possui uma capa protetora em vidro temperado com um filme anti-reflexo e um novo preenchimento de resina entre o LCD propriamente dito e a proteção de vidro que ajuda a minimizar reflexos internos e melhora muito a visibilidade em situações de muita luz. Durante a reprodução de imagem, apertar o botão de iluminação exibe uma tela de luminosidade de LCD, para que a luminosidade possa ser ajustada de forma fácil e rápida.
- Construção Profissional
- Uma construção em liga de magnésio leve e incrivelmente resistente ajuda a EOS-1D Mark IV a suportar praticamente todas as condições e a EOS-1D Mark IV possui um obturador projetado para 300.000 ciclos. Todos os controles da EOS-1D Mark IV, botões e capas externas são resistentes à água e poeira, assegurando operação ininterrupta seja fotografando na chuva, em uma tempestade e em outras condições ruins. A poeira é gerenciada com o avançado Sistema de Limpeza EOS Integrado da Canon, que ajuda a suprimir geração de poeira, remover a poeira existente e usa a combinação de Dust Delete Data e software DPP para eliminar pontos de poeira restantes em suas imagens. Quando a EOS-1D Mark IV for usada com uma lente EF resistente à poeira e água ou Speedlite externo, todo o sistema da câmera é praticamente selado contra os elementos.
- Compatibilidade com Lente Canon EF
- A EOS-1D Mark IV é compatível com todas as lentes Canon na linha EF (excluindo as lentes EF-S), indo de lentes Ultra-Grande Angular até Super Telefoto. As lentes Canon empregam avançado know-how ótico e engenharia com precisão de mícron para proporcionar uma performance sem precedentes em todas as facetas do processo fotográfico. Tecnologias óticas especiais, como óticas aesféricas e elementos de fluorita, estão presentes nas aclamadas lentes da Série L e a tecnologia de Estabilizador de Imagem da Canon em algumas lentes ajuda a minimizar o efeito de tremido da câmera. Com as lentes da Canon, os fotógrafos podem melhorar a qualidade e obter toda a performance da 1D Mark IV.

I've had this since they were released. I've owned the 1D, 1Ds, 1Dsii, 1Dii and now the 5Dii and the 1Div. This is my favorite digital DSLR ever. It performs nearly instantly and hits focus spot on [that said, I had to send EVERY other single D body to Canon for focus repair]. This was great right out of the box. Lighter. Faster. And resolution just below 1DsII (due to pixel density).
I shoot lifestyle (not sports) so my subjects ARE moving, but not super fast. I'm shooting wide open apertures nearly all the time and focus is critical. You HAVE to put the AF sensor on the subject's eyes to get sharp focus at wide apertures since DOF is so shallow and you CANNOT focus and recompose [that's a function of all DSLR's at wide apertures, close distance, etc]. Color and sharpness are good (though again, I'd give the slight edge to the 1DsII).
Body and build are great. Lighter and better batteries. The LCD is a huge step up from the MKii models, as is the built-in JPEG within the RAW for checking focus on the fly. The dust removal thing is no gimmick. With previous cameras used to clean the sensor every 15 days or so - have only blown dust out of this once and never had to wipe the sensor ever. Nice.
Like any mass-produced product (even at $Xxxx) there will be QC issues. If you get a lemon; exchange it or get it fixed. CPS has always been great for me. Your mileage may vary.
TTL flash is better, but much as I like Canon, it's just not Nikon good. Much better than before for sure, but still a bit unpredictable. I've been shooting professionally for 12 years with maybe 1,000,000 exposures, so take this FWIW.
As to low-light performance. I just did a shoot via moonlight -- with a live model on set outdoors. Yes. Live model lit only by moonlight. A sheriff on site kept asking me, "but where is the LIGHT coming from?!!!" He just could not believe it was moonlight doing the work. But I've got images to show for it.
As with any technology, the next one will be better… but till then, I'll be making and selling images with the camera of today in hand. And this one I like very much. If it were full frame, it just might be the last DSLR I ever bought (but what mfg. wants to make that camera?) It's for lack of FF that I take a star off. I'd trade 2 fps for a bigger sensor.

As of now, there are three groups of reviewers for the Canon 1D Mark IV camera.The first group are the ones who have upgraded from consumer/prosumer bodies, i.e. 40D, 50D, 5DMII. Most of these reviewers gave the Mark IV high marks. Well, that's understandable since moving up to the 1D series is, indeed, a worthwhile upgrade. And the Mark IV does outperform all of consumer/prosumer bodies in many categories, even the auto focus, up to a certain point.The second group are the one who are in denial. They are the ones who upgraded from the Mark II, Mark IIN , or the Mark III. They see the Mark IV's shortcoming, and poor performance, but cannot bring themselves to the realization that after spending $5000.00, their new camera is not much better than the Mark III, and certainly, and without a doubt, not as good as the Mark IIN. For whatever reason it may be, they are trying desperately to convince themselves that their purchase is a good one. They are the ones who, after realizing what a poor performer the Mark IV is in areas that really count the most, go on boasting about the camera's other features (high megapixel count, high frame rate, 1080P video), in hopes of making themselves feel better about their purchase. With all due respect to those reviewers, let me just say this: no matter what feature a camera has, or how many gigapixels a camera has, or any other feature it might have that separates it from the rest of its competition, that said camera is worthless if it cannot produce focused images. What good is a large image if it's out of focus? No amount of pixels is going to help it. What are you going to tell your client, "hey, I have a great sequence of the winning goal/shot/peak moment, and you can have prints the size of the Empire State Building, too, just overlook the simple fact that the image/images are out of focus".?The third group are the ones who are realistic, and objective in their review. What I mean by that is they have come to the conclusion that the Mark IV is a great disappointment when it comes to the focus/autofocus department. And not to mention falling short when competing against Nikon's D3S, in just about most categories, except the megapixel count and the 1080P video.I belong in the third group. I have shot about 2000 frames with the Mark IV, in varying conditions, and the camera's AF performed pretty much exactly as Rob Galbraith stated in his review of this body. POORLY. I do not have the Mark III (I opted to skip that party) to compare the Mark IV with, but I do have a Mark IIN, and I'm here to say that if Canon would simply take the Mark IIN's AF system, as is, and put it in the Mark IV body, along with the 39 cross type AF selection points, that they may have a winner on their hands, or at least they won't have as big a disappointment as the Mark III, and the Mark IV.During a soccer game, on a cloudless, sunny sky, the camera's AF had a difficult time. Whether using the single shot mode, or AI Servo mode, the AF system was consistently inconsistent. In single shot mode, on static subjects, the camera would confirm focus acquisition when in fact the subject is out of focus, which would be confirmed later after zooming in to verify focus. This problem happened on a regular basis, with different lenses. And different a bodyIn AI servo mode, the camera sometimes refuses to focus, and can be clearly seen in the viewfinder that the subject is out of focus, yet the focus points light up indicating focus and the camera is firing away as though the camera has acquired focus. I do not recall ever experiencing such behavior with the Mark IIN.Another problem with the AF system is the low light focusing ability (inability?). There were many occasions where the light was dim, and the Mark IV would just hunt and hunt trying to acquire focus. Same situation, same lens, the Mark IIN would instantly acquire focus. The Mark IV was finally able to acquire focus, in the same dimly lit conditions, with the help of a speedlite's IR beam. But then again, the Mark IIN did not need that kind of help. Now, will someone please give me a logical explanation as to why a new and improved AF system does not perform as well as an older version?There is a well known photographer, whose name I will not mention, but he is the one who brought attention to the Mark III's problems, and had warned Canon of those problems, which Canon chose to ignore and release the Mark III anyway. That same gentleman has tested the Mark IV, and he concluded that it, too, has lots of problems with the AF system. I didn't want to believe it, at first, but went ahead and purchased the Mark IV. Needless to say, I have experienced the same problems that he outlined in his review. I'm sure most photographers know to whom I am referring. If not, do a search on the Mark III reviews, and you will find what I'm talking about.[...] The serial numbers of the two bodies were clearly from a different batch. When I contacted Canon C.P.S. to ask about these problems, they said, and I quote, "having used both the 1D Mark III and the 1D Mark IV, I can tell you thatthe focus capability of the 1D Mark IV is a nice improvement over the 1DMark III, assuming of course that the camera is working as it should andused correctly".A nice improvement? When I read that, my first impression was that of mild shock, but also an "aha" moment. When the Mark IV was introduced, it was supposed to have all the Mark III's problems fixed. But now Canon says that the AF is a "nice improvement" over the Mark III. Well that confirmed to me that Canon never really overhauled the flawed system. Obviously Canon has no confidence in their new AF system; otherwise they wouldn't just be saying that it is a "nice improvement". If the AF system was a good one, they would be more confident, and they would use better language to describe it. Apparently, the system is still flawed. Not much has been fixed.I guess you can say that Canon just put lipstick on a pig, and called it the Mark IV.Another thing that C.P.S. told me is that the problems that I'm experiencing could be due an alignment problem with the camera. So let me get this straight: that's two different cameras, from two entirely different batches, and they both have the same problems. According to Canon, this is an isolated problem. HA!So as to those positive reviews out there, I am going to have to disagree with them. I don't care what Canon says, or what other reviewers are saying, I know what I have experienced with this new model, and it ain't pretty.

Comments about Canon EOS 1D Mark IV SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
I use this camera for day to day shooting and some professional portraiture. I would have like to waited for the 1D X for the full frame but was just a bit pricey. As it is a professional camera body the settings take a bit to get used to. However once you do it takes dynamite pictures. Taking it to Florida this week and will be shooting it a lot more. Can't wait.

Comments about Canon EOS 1D Mark IV SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
I started out digitally with the 10D. I switched to Nikon for the D100. I then switched back to Canon because of their lens lineup and bought the 20D. I then graduated to the 1DsMKIII. I sold that, got the 1DIII, which had the worst AF ever, sold it, and switched back to Nikon and the D3, and excellent all around camera. Ya still with me?
I then switched back to Canon, again because of their glass. I got the 5DII along with the 200 f2 IS L. It was a great combination, along with my other glass, except for the banding on the 5DII, especially when pushing the exposure in PS.
I finally settled on the 1DIV and haven't looked back. I read the most popular "bad" review herein. I do not fall into the categories he enumerates. As you have read thus far, if I buy a camera and it's a pig, I don't put lipstick on it. I'll tell it like it is. The 1DIII was a pig.
The 1DIV is a whole other ball game. The IQ (image quality) is in another league. The sensor must be made of silk. Absolutely beautiful rendering, great high ISO capability, if a stop below the D3s, but great resolution, excellent speed, wonderful handling, and the focus while not perfect, but what is, hits most of the time.
I shoot a great variety of subjects, from macro to high school wrestling and baseball, to models in studio, to family photos and portraits, and the 1DIV is the best camera I've had the pleasure to shoot with.
Now that Canon has announced the 1DX, I tried it at the PhotoPlus Expo. I like it. I'm probably going to upgrade.

Comments about Canon EOS 1D Mark IV SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
Possibly the last APS-H sensor size 1D series body from Canon, the MkIV is an awesome refinement of this line. I cannot think of anything this camera does not do extremely well.
Yes, it's big, heavy, and expensive, but it's Canon's flagship pro series body and it wears tht title well.

Comments about Canon EOS 1D Mark IV SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
I wanted to get a 2nd body in addition to my 5D MK II, and everything I had read and heard about this camera was just what I was looking for. Although not a full frame, but flip side to that is that it gives a little more distance with my 70-200 at just the right time. It's excellent in low-light situations and has a fast focus at those times, as well. I still go back to my 5D MK II for most portrait sessions, but this definitely has its place in my arsenal for weddings and sports photography!

Comments about Canon EOS 1D Mark IV SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
I just rented the 1D MIV for the week, shot an LA Celebrity red carpet fashion shoot next to the Kodak theater, three weddings in San Francisco, and some underwater Senior session swimmer photographs in a week, and let me tell you, using the 5d, and 5dm2 (mostly for weddings) for a long time and then using the 1d MIV was an incredible gap difference. Yeah, it's not a full frame, but holy moses, mostly all my photographs straight out of 1d MIV were in focus, unlike my 5dm2 (which bites at focusing in dim light and actually having images that are in-focus). The AF on camera movement (during the fast fashion shoot in low light with my ISO cranked to 3200 and my three weddings) was freaking amazing!! Slight noise, but the 5dm2 has some noise at 3200 as well. With my 1d MIV weddings, I had a harder time culling because so many images were in-FOCUS.
Another AMAZING gesture I find with this camera is I put on slideshows at weddings the day of with JPEGs, and let me tell you, the skin tones, Image Quality, and bokeh (mostly from my 70-200L, 35L, and 85 1.8) were ABSOLUTELY so much better shot on the 1d MarkIV than my 5dm2. The skin tones were not only amazing right out of camera (due to better AWB), BUT!!!...the skin was nice and soft while the whole images was VERY sharp, which is a dichotomy. I don't get, how the image quality is vastly different from the 5dm2. I put in an order for the 1d MIV, and it's like I don't want to shoot anything else without my 1D MarkIV.
I"m going to keep my 5dm2 for the video and low light full frame necessary photographs. I shot the 1D mark IV under water last week in a 9ft. public pool for a swimmer, and I was a little bummed that my 16-35L couldn't go wide enough under water looking above me, so that's one of the issues with a non full-frame camera that I have with this camera. I'll just have to buy a wider lens. Easy fix.
Another issue I have is I did have some hunting on some of the non-contrasty subjects in low light, but still MUCH better than my 5dm2 in the dark. It's worth to me to have images in focus with beautiful IQ, and skin tones, and all. There is something definitely different from this camera than from the out of focus 5dm2. After shooting the 1d MarkIV (which actually sounds like a real camera when you press the shutter button) makes my 5dm2 feel like a cheap camera. I just wish it wasn't so pricey!

Comments about Canon EOS 1D Mark IV SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
I upgraded from my trusty and super sharp mk2 to this! the mother of all disappointments I have to say. I shoot wildlife primarily and this camera's AF Does not come close to the mk2. The images are so blurred and unsharp even when you are shooting with the greatest accuracy. I have had this for one year and I got bored of my photography due to the quality of its images , that I almost gave up this hobby, until I saw images of my friend who was shooting alongside me on a nikon d3.
I have now ordered the NIKONS superstar the d3s and I am impatiently waiting to kick start my hobby.
Canon has to seriously look into the competition from nikon or they will loose the game altogether .
But I will never switch back even if canon put out the mother of all camera's like they boasted about the mk4

I have a mark IIn and a 7d and a 5d II and thought that this was the ultimate, well I got it and had a focus problem from day one that and inconsistant exposures. I called canon and they told me to send it in for repair, wasn't going to send in a new camera for repair so I returned it and am very happy with what I already own and put that money toward a 500mm

Comments about Canon EOS 1D Mark IV SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
I used the 1D IV alongside my 5D II for five weddings and the AF on the 1D IV started to hunt in low light about 1 stop worse than the 5D II. It's more like the 40D in low light. For me as a wedding photographer, that's a showstopper because much of my work is in low light. It was worst with the 70-200/2.8 IS Mk II, and improved with wider lenses like the 24/1.4, 35/1.4, and 15/2.8 fisheye. But, regardless of lenses, it's AF was consistently worse than the 5DII's in low light. If this could be fixed and a full frame sensor swapped into this camera, it would be perfect for weddings. Other than that, autofocus in good light is very snappy. ISO is cleaner than the 5DII by about 1 stop, and it's noise is of a variety that cleans up better. White balance was highly accurate until low light (and very amber) conditions, where it got confused a bit. Light metering was also more accurate than the 5D II. Because of its heavier weight, there was less shake and my hand-held keeper rate was higher. The LCD screen was slightly better (more accurate) than my 5D II. Ergonomically, the 1D IV is awesome to hold, and it's built like a tank. The battery lasted longer than the 5D II. I'm hoping for a 1DN IV that fixes the low light AF, and I'm willing to live with the 1.3 crop because it's really a great camera otherwise.

Comments about Canon EOS 1D Mark IV SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
I've been using Canon bodies since the 10D appeared a while back. So far, they have had a great track record. I have to admit, sadly, the last few bodies that I have purchased have been a little disappointing. It almost appears as though Canon's quality control has been taking a vacation. The 1D III and the 7D really didn't like to focus for me, and unfortunately, neither did the 1D IV. I have a variety of beautiful lenses, but they do no good when the AF is telling you it has achieved focus and the image is a solid blur. I ended up having to send the camera to them to have the AF system adjusted, and from what I gathered piecing together what people had told me is this is an issue that is being addressed on an individual basis.
Now that I have the body back, I am absolutely thrilled using it. The focus is working great, and even in low-light (30-60 watt bulb lighting my apartment) it's hitting on the money.
I use it for pretty much everything from sports to portraits. I've been out in the rain a couple of times shooting macro with the AI servo activated, and I am most impressed with the images that have come out of it. Truth be told, I haven't used my 5d II very much since the 1D came back from Canon.
I agree with some of the other reviewers that the older AF systems were fantastic ( my favorite cameras being the 20D, 1D IIN, and the 1Ds II), but I don't agree that this new one is a complete disappointment. I feel the real disappointment is that you have to ship a $5k camera body back to the factory service center to be re-calibrated. In the end, I think this is a great camera, but it's been a hassle to get working to the expectation level of the name 1D. All in all, I think it's a great piece of equipment, and I have no qualms about recommending it to other people. I just wish Canon would invest a little more effort into their quality control.

Comments about Canon EOS 1D Mark IV SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
I use my camera primarily for wildlife shots, with some scenery and a few flowers thrown in to satisfy the wife. This is the 4th Canon camera I have owned and I have liked them all. It has taken some time to find the one I needed to accomplish what I want from my photography. That said, this new MarkIV is the absolute best I have ever used. The fast focusing ability and frames per second are fabulous for the wildlife. Great in low light. I can get noise-free shots with an ISO of 3200. For the first time, I can use my X2 extender with my 500mm lens and get good shots.I have only had the Mark IV for 10 days, but have put it through the paces. I've taken over 1700 shots, mostly from a trip to Mt. Rainier. I've used it for wildlife at a distance, wildlife close up, scenery, sunrise shots, flowers, action shots. The only thing I haven't tried yet is the video function.
There is only one problem with the Mark IV that I can see - I am going to need another external hard drive for picture storage.
