1D Mark III low light performance

[will king]

If anybody had any doubts about which body performs better in low light / high

ISO, I'm here to tell you that the 1D Mark III blows away the 5D. The 5D is

amazing in low light but the 1D Mark III is just that much beter. I took some

shots last night at a restaurant with very little light. Here's one at ISO

6400, no flash, no noise reduction software.<div></div>

Amazing, Will. Your post and sample shot are going to cost me about four grand.

Trust me Brent. It's worth every penny.

Here is an iso 6400 sample from a kickboxing game last night.<div></div>

And how do they <a href="http://www.robgalbraith.com/bins/multi_page.asp?cid=7-8745-9153">compare?</a>

It truely is amazing how well the images hold up past 1250 ISO..

the only drawback to this camera is the weight..

but you'll end up with Pop eye forearms if your not careful..

:)

 

I'd love to add this camera to the kit. but I've heard there is an updated 5D coming early next year with the same internals less the fast frames per second.

So I may have to wait and see....

 

big decisions..
