Battleship

Strengths: There is currently simply nothing to compete with this Camera. It is two years old. But the resolution of 16-Mp is still the highest you can get in a Single Lens Reflex....... by far!

Weakness: The camera body is unnecessarily BIG and heavy. It also has a very difficult to remember illogical set of control buttons and commands and no build-in flash. And it is very expensive.

When I am shooting outside with plenty of time and light I use this camera. The 16-Mp image is unbeatable. You can crop even small parts of your image for a usable photo.

Canon 1Ds Mark II

Canon's EOS-1Ds Mark II clearly approaches "ultimate" status for a digital SLR, at least in today's market. The original EOS-1Ds was a breakthrough product when it came out almost three years ago now, and the new Canon EOS-1Ds Mark II updates and improves almost every aspect of camera operation. In our tests, the Canon 1Ds Mark II turned in an impressive performance, but does appear to share the...
