Canon EOS-1D Mark III Snapping Off Frames Like a House Afire

Here's the Canon EOS-1D Mark III digital SLR firing off 10 frames per second. It's able to fire a string of 110 frames at a time in its default large jpeg frame size at level 8 compression. Canon's Chuck Westfall, Director of Media and Customer Relationship of the Consumer Imaging Group, shows us what this hot high-end DSLR can do.

Does it help you to take better photos? No. Can have the latest and greatest and still take absolute crap.

@shledron It actually does if you're in professional sports/nature photography because you can capture multiple pictures of objects that are moving quickly...

@StephaneXD At the top of the camera you should see a AF.DRIVE button and move the ring dial to you see squares with a h near it.

Umm...yes? If you have it set up for someone winding their fastball and you have 10 pictures of his motion, you can pick the best of the photos and wind up with better photos. It's definitely better if you know what you're doing, but isn't a substitute for bad composition. It just helps with timing.

0:08 what is that box on the side of the camera body? is that a external battery? Nice

Since I'm not a sports photographer, and I take my time to set up and compose my photos, my 3 fps DSLR does just fine. Plus, my lenses are FAR better than these. But people who think faster is better, here's the camera for you.
