Try another lens and see if the problem persists.

I've tried my 17-40L (can't really tell because of f4, lol), 35mm f2, and 85mm f1.8.

Well I'm really hoping the eBay seller gives me a refund for the amount to buy squaretrade.

It's something you could send in to Canon and see if they will tweak it for free.

Hi guys !

I have a simple question to which I couldn't find a clear answer : is the 1D Mark II compatible with SDXC cards ? I own several SDHC and just out of curiosity I wonder if it can also take SDXC. I don't have any under hand and I read it couldn't but just wanted to be sure and have a "real life" confirmation.

Thanks !

Here's two I shot today.

It's funny how complicated it is to do some very simple things on a PC. I never had any EOS Utility problems with this camera on my mac.

Here's a bit older shot from a while ago (going through older images to edit them down) which makes me miss this camera..

Nice shot. How do you like the 1D MkIII compared to the IIn?

Honestly, I don't use the 1D MkIII that much.

It seems like my main go to camera for anything serious that I want the top quality image from is my 5D Mk II. This is granted that at the time I only owned a IIn and worked with what I had. As for between the two 1D's, the IIn granted a certain quality that I feel is lacking with the III.

I am getting a 16-35 f2.8 soon, and will try to shoot with the MkIII more. If I am still disappointed in it I probably will try and sell/trade it for another 5d2, but I am still attached to the 1 series build, weather sealing, and its seemingly countless other features. The MkIII was out with me in the rain for 4 hours in a torrential downpour and shooting images that made it to the 6 o' clock news..

The screen, live view, and menu system are substantially better than the IIn.

How much of a downpour are you talking about? I've always been hesitant to take my II out in the rain (with the appropriate lens of course). Let's say, for instance, I'm shooting a football game with the mk II and a 300 2.8 IS and it begins to monsoon, what's the stopping point or point where you all will cover up your camera and lens?

With the mark III and a sealed lens I would stop when I froze to death and fell over dead..

Here's a photo of it after shooting for 4 hours in an inch an hour rain (insane for Southerns California)
