Canon 1D Mk III - Rubbish!

[iPap]

Mine goes back today for yet another one.

How did Canon get it so wrong?

 

[Tom]

[White16valver]

Well if you will buy cheap stuff... lol

 

[JoelDee]

I've never had no problems with Canon love their cameras, prefer them to Nikon

 

[fizzy_drink]

I've never had any problems at all (apart from a dirty sensor on my 300D).

I'm very pleased with the 5D I'm using at the moment.



I suppose they don't shift many of the 1Ds so as to perfect production?

 

[McBunny]

its a software issue that really shouldnt have happened especially not in a camera that costs 2600

 

[iPap]

It has a list price of £3,300 but you can get them for £2,700 in store however you don't expect the issues I've had!

And Om's, it's not the "S" it's the MKIII.

Whoops... I added the 's' as a plural (as opposed to singluar).

Anyway, if it were my camera I'd be bloody annoyed too.

What do you use as a trusty backup as a matter of interest?

 

[iPap]
