The mkIII did away with it, and they are much more similar the other canon bodies now. Yea.. well the 1D-X does not have a wheel aswell.. so the question remains "High life on low budget"

This changes from Av to Tv, etc. Also on the left are buttons you press and hold while turning the dial to change things like ISO, drive, AF mode, etc etc. Newer models may have a slightly different system. Some cameras. Some lenses.

Yeah, starting with the 1D Mark III, you no longer need to hold down the selection button(s) while turning the Main Dial to make your selection. ...Leo

apersson850 Obviously it's a good thing  More info | Same solution as when the input wheel was introduced on the T90, back in 1987 or so. Anders

Ah, but it DOES have a wheel and you DO need to use it to change modes or make other selections. ...Leo

Actually in general I MUCH prefer the ergonomics of the 1D series. Canon 6D - Canon 1D Mk III - 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II | Σ 105mm f/2.8 | Canon 400mm f/5.6L | Σ 35mm f/1.4 | 17-40mm f/4L

Difference with the 1D series cameras is that you also have to press a button along with turning the wheel.  BTW, welcome to the 1D club.  Thanks!  "High life on low budget"
