Hi all,
In my searching online for a lens for my crop cameras I have seen an ad for a 1Ds Mk1 body. It looks in nice condition from the pics of it, but is it really a bit too long in the tooth to consider for serious use now?
I would add that I currently use a 20D and 30D and find the IQ perfectly acceptable - I used them recently for a wedding job and they were fine, but I decided I need a high quality standard zoom for possible further jobs, hence my search, but also thought maybe I should go FF. I would most likely keep them to use alongside FF/backups, if I do go down that line.
I read that the image noise on the 1DS is bad above ISO400 but haven't found any examples. I'm not a 'high ISO' junkie but would need acceptable quality at say ISO 800, but I generally use my digitals like film and shoot at 100/200 mostly.
I've found a potential lens (17-55 f2.8) for the crop cameras and this body. What to pull the trigger on? Hmmm
