I just purchased a used 1DIII, in excellent shape, and gave it a test drive on this Woodpecker in the back yard.
I’ve wanted to try a ‘1 Series’ body for quite a while now and must say I’m very impressed with the build quality and speed of focus/shutter this camera has!
Haven’t had it long enough to compare the IQ of the smaller sensor vs. my ‘5DII’ but looks pretty good so far.
This was also my first attempt at a BIF shot, as is pretty obvious…(got a long ways to go on this technique for sure)
I’m totally lost on all the focus point selections available and what is best to use on BIF shots.
Any advice you guys might have would be much appreciated.
Defiantly got my hands full figuring out all the functions that are available on this thing!....
