New Toy Arrived. Can you guess what it was?

Teshi · 01-18-2009, 04:02 AM

Sooo after finally drooling and debating on what I wanted as an everyday body, I finally settled and picked one up. Can you guess what it was to compliment my 5D?

Hint : Its all in the EXIF.

Three batteries, original box, software, leads and charger - £430 total which is amazing!

1D!

Spot on. Even though this is the mkI, its a whole world ahead of any other Canon body I have owned. Minus my EOS 1 35mm.

Going from a 5D to this has been an interesting move. The main thing is the response from the AF, the shutter response and viewfinder blackout. Its amazing.

Had made me put a 1D IIn or 1D III on my hit list now!

They didnt number it "1" for no reason

I wanted to get a 5D but it doesn't have a liveview LCD viewfinder, so I decided not to. I've seen pics taken with the camera and they are good though.

Liveview is not needed. Its a nice tool but IQ is important to me. No other Canon offers me more vs price.
