10.1 Megapixel CMOS sensor
Canon’s APS-H size (28.1 x 18.7 mm) CMOS sensor combines superb colour
rendering with a wide dynamic range. Its inherent low-noise
characteristics ensure smooth results at high sensitivities. A low pass
filter and on-chip circuitry suppress moiré and remaining noise.
10 fps, 110 frame burst
The camera delivers 10 frames per second for a continuous burst of up to
110 Large JPEGs or 30 RAW images.
Dual "DIGIC III" processors
Dual "DIGIC III" processors work in parallel to process images at 14
bits for a total reproduction range of 16,384 tones per pixel. These
fast and efficient processors also drive the camera’s shooting
performance and near-instant response times. Start-up is just 0.2
milliseconds.
Wide-area AF with 19 cross type points
A high precision AF system employs 19 cross type points with sensitivity
up to f/2.8, spread out across the AF area to accommodate off-centre
subjects. 26 AF assist points aid AF tracking for increased accuracy.
EOS Integrated Cleaning System
Canon’s built-in dust prevention and cleaning system works to keep the
sensor clean. A combination of technologies reduces, repels and removes
dust and includes a Self-Cleaning Sensor Unit that shakes dust from the
sensor with each power on.
Wide ISO Range
A wide 100 to 3200 ISO range as standard is expandable to L:50 and
H:6400.
3.0" LCD with Live View mode
The bright 3.0" TFT LCD provides pin-sharp definition for checking focus
and composition, with 10x magnification for finer details. When shooting
from awkward positions, Live View mode gives you the option of framing
your image from the LCD.
Picture Style
Picture Style presets provide easy control over image processing
parameters. Each style offers a different colour response - similar to
the way film types are changed to achieve different effects. Sharpness,
contrast, colour tone and saturation are adjustable within each preset.
Weather sealed, magnesium alloy body
A magnesium alloy body with dust and moisture resistant sealing protects
the EOS-1D Mark III from harsh weather and the rigours of daily use.
Shutter reliability is a durable 300,000 cycles.
EOS system compatibility
The EOS-1D Mark III is compatible with all EF lenses (excl. EF-S lenses)
and EX Series Speedlite flash units. Untethered shooting and image
transfer are available with the optional Wireless File Transmitter
WFT-E2.
