Canon EOS 1v

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Camera Equipment : One Thread

I'm surprised to see that no one has really started a thread on Canon's latest offering. I'm curious what people think of what they've read in regards to the new pro body. What are the pro's and con's.

Personally I like the new software link with which you can download exposure information and stuff like that, I really envied that when the Nikon F5 came out. I also like the idea of printing information on the first frame of the film, this is a great idea for indicating job title or company name, etc. They say the AF is faster than the EOS 3 so it will be interesting to see if it actually lives up to that.

What are your thoughts?

Bill: Actually, there have been a number of recent threads discussing the 1V, but some may have been deleted or timed out to the "older thread" categories. Try searching "1V" and see what comes up. (My personal thoughts on this camera? I've got one on order!).

I just tried a search under Original Q&A, and nothing came up, so you might want to check the older threads at the Camera Equipment, EOS FAQ, Original Q&A, and Nature Photography forums. Of course, there's also the Canon website at www.usa.canon.com, and the Canon Malaysia website had additional info that may still be available.
