Just picked up a 1Ds from KEH for a steal as a back-up to my 5D Mark II, how much of a learning curve should I expect?
not much except when you have to change the mode. but, the focus is worth the learning curve. did you say 1ds?

Photography on my budget? WHAT WAS I THINKIN?!

I purchased a mint 1d from a fellow PTONr and then traded it locally for a 1dIII (+ cash). Then, sold the 1dIII for a 5d2. I simply love the 5d2 but really missed having the 1d body and the nice, small images that this body produces. So, sent the guy that has my old 1d an email over the weekend and worked out a deal to buy it back. Can't wait to get it. Film, suckers.

jgaurd Member ![]() 209 posts Joined Jul 2010 Location: Ellington, CT., USA More info | I need to get a back up for my 1D Mark II n and I'm leaning toward the 1D. I'm shooting kids sports on the side. I'm wondering if 4.15 mega pixels would work for client pictures. If they want something bigger than 8x10 I'm kinda screwed. I can't afford another 1D2 n body right now. Would I be OK with a 1D Classic?

Most of our clients don't buy larger than 11x14, and you can crank those out all day long without any problems at all. Looks great. Can go larger than that easy, if it's exposed correctly and not cropped. Piece of cake.
