Peacock

Decided last week that I couldn't wait any longer to try out the EOS 1D MkIII so picked one up on Thursday and gave it it's first outing Monday on butterflies in local woodland.

At this stage I cannot comment on the cameras autofocus but the file quality IMO is amazing especially at higher iso settings.

Canon 1D MkIII + 180 + x1.4 iso 640 1/100 at f9

Hi David,

Impressive quality indeed, even at this small size.
Excellent shot with vibrant, but natural, colour.

Hi David

Sooo perfect it doesnt look real-beautiful

Fantastic!

Dave,

What can I say..... its a good job I can't afford one at the moment, wonder if I can persuade the mus that I need one for specimen images



A great image too....



Phil

Thats a cracking shot there

Cracking shot indeed David! Received my EOS Mark 3 yesterday...hopefully can give it a crack over the weekend!

Looks impressive David, but your images generally do, so it's hard to say it's any different to your Mark 2

Great image perfectly presented I reckon

Hello david
certainly the right subject to try the higher ISO on and a beautiful result too; I wish I could afford one!
Best wishes
Phil

Hi David

Great colours, simple but very attractive image.

The 1Dmk3 is very tempting for the high ISO quality. I regularly shoot at ISO800/1600 with the 5D, which is largely noise free and gives great images, but the 1Dmk3 seems to take this a step further.

cheers

Hi

This is a really strong image - glorious colour.

Hi David,
A real stunner , makes me want a MK111

Kind regards
Andy...

Very Very NICE David

ISO 640 - who'd Adam 'n Eve it - I was playing with a mk3 on Monday, it's a bit 'yummy' isn't it - I couldn't get over the screen size, I've seen smaller family TV's in the Argos catologue

But this high iso performance looks very good - even if you don't submitt to them it would be interesting to know what OSF and Alamy make of the images.

And I thought a peacock was a bird..... Welcome to the MarkIII club, David - hope you get lots of joy with it

I, too, expected to see a bird!
Impressive and interesting shot.

Hi David

This is a species I had the chance to photogragh recently, I wish the ones I was with sat on better plants.

This is a very detailed shot with great DOF, a pleasure to veiw.

PS: Great to chat with you & thanks for putting the Shooting Mag Man in my direction, I took a fresh batch of shots this evening for them, hopefully they will use one of the shots I sent them. All the best

impressive colours and detail, and composition and light isn't all that bad either. So at least some credit should go to photographer not only his new toy .

Cheers,
Marko
