To celebrate the 20th anniversary of its top-selling EOS single lens reflex camera system, Canon unveils the EOS-1D Mark III DSLR, the world’s fastest digital SLR camera. At 10 frames per second, the 10.1-mega pixel camera can fire huge motor-driven bursts of 110 Large JPEGs or 30 RAW files because it employs the new Dual DIGIC III image processor engine, providing enough computational horsepower to do parallel processing at a rate unmatched by any other digital SLR.

The all-new 10.1-mega pixel, APS-H size CMOS sensor is the most light-sensitive and innovative sensor that Canon has developed to date. It features a new microlens array and a more efficient pixel structure for ultra-low noise, resulting in exceptional image quality and an amazing ISO range of 100-3200 with extensions to ISO 50 and a highly usable ISO 6400.
