I was at Canon CPS picking up the 1Ds for evaluation the day before yesterday and happened to mention reading about the D80 on that site. The Technical Manager there totally refuted the prospect of any such camera coming out this year and he had heard of these rumours, and that site. He commented that there was a problem with supply of the D60 but nothing more than that. It will be interesting to see what does or doesn't eventuate. I must admit that I was very surprised at the prospect of updating this fairly new body so soon. And while I trust my CPS source, I'll keep an open mind for now... Now back to the 1Ds. What a fine piece of equipment ! I think I am going to get hooked on the immediate feedback available with shooting digitally. I got up before dawn and shot some very early-dawn shots overlooking the city. Guess the exposure - take a test shot - too light on the display image - enter -0.7 - test shoot - perfect. Even noticed on the display that the horizon was slightly off so corrected it before shooting RAW. How simple is this ? Regards, Tim www.timmunro.com.au Hi Tim, So, what's your honest opinion of the EOS 1Ds? I want one pretty bad but I'm waiting to see what develops so to say with the EOS D80 rumors between to the chronic low availability of the EOS D60 and its IMO almost useless AF speed for action and sports. I think I'm willing to give up the frame rate of the EOS 1D for the level of resolution of the EOS 1Ds. Of course the EOS 1D images are pretty good too and they are slowly falling in price.
