Rob Galbraith publishes a first look at the Canon EOS-1D Mark III
It's a camera designed to extend Canon's superiority in areas like autofocus and high-ISO image quality, to shore up areas of competitive weakness such as the battery system and camera configuration and to incorporate emerging features like Live View and remote camera access, but do these things better than they've been done before in the digital SLR arena. And while they were at it, Canon opted to increase the EOS-1D Mark III's resolution and frame rate too, relative to the EOS-1D Mark II N it replaces.
