Just got my 1Ds Mkiii...

It's in my hands finally... after 5 months of waiting to arrive. I m charging up now  
Oh, I almost forgot, it looks fantastic. What's your experience up to now with the camera and which of your lens you found good enough and up for the resolution and the sharpness of the camera?

It works a treat! :-)

Don't forget there is a firmware update out for it. Battery life is fantastic. Might pay to check if the v/f is straight. Well worth investing in UDMA CF cards for the sheer speed of transfer (I use Lexar 300x).

Sharp, sharp, sharp with my TSE 90.

Pay careful attention to how you sharpen the files. This is from the Canon PDF on the MkIII cameras

"•    RAW   shooters   are   advised   to   apply   sharpening   in   the   computer   (Photoshop’s   Unsharp   Mask   command,   or   similar   processes)
•    Low ISO initial Unsharp Mask suggestion — Amount 250%,  Radius 0.3~0.5 pixels,  Threshold 1
•    High ISO initial Unsharp Mask suggestion — Amount 250%,  Radius 0.3 pixels,  Threshold 4~5 "

Enjoy!
