Canon 1D MIII vs Canon 1Ds MIII

Lets examine more in depth at the Canon 1D MIII versus Canon 1Ds MIII, both Pro DSLR cameras and both are built by Canon. There is a noticeable difference among the resolutions of the 1D MIII (10MP) and 1Ds MIII (21MP) and the 1D MIII (APS-H) and 1Ds MIII (Full frame) feature totally different sensor sizes.

The 1D MIII was introduced 18 months prior to the 1Ds MIII making the cameras a generation apart from each other. Both of these cameras come with the identical body type (Large SLR).

Before getting in to a more detailed comparison, below is a short introduction of how the 1D MIII scores vs the 1Ds MIII in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a sample of the gallery pics for Canon EOS-1D Mark III & Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III. The whole galleries are provided at Canon 1D MIII Gallery & Canon 1Ds MIII Gallery.

For anyone who is intending to lug around your camera, you should take into account its weight and measurements. The Canon 1D MIII has external measurements of 156mm x 157mm x 80mm (6.1" x 6.2" x 3.1") accompanied by a weight of 1335 grams (2.94 lbs) while the Canon 1Ds MIII has proportions of 150mm x 160mm x 80mm (5.9" x 6.3" x 3.1") accompanied by a weight of 1385 grams (3.05 lbs).

Always remember, the weight of an ILC will differ based on the lens you have during that time. Underneath is the front view sizing comparison of the 1D MIII compared to the 1Ds MIII.

Taking into consideration size and weight, the portability score of the 1D MIII and 1Ds MIII is 51 and 51 respectively.

Often, it is very difficult to envision the contrast in sensor measurements just by checking out a spec sheet. The visual underneath will offer you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the 1D MIII and 1Ds MIII.

As you can see, both of these cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The 1D MIII using its smaller sensor will make shooting bokeh trickier and the Canon 1Ds MIII will provide extra detail using its extra 11 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop images much more aggressively. The older 1D MIII will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
