I\'m also curious why there isn\'t a 1D4 master thread. It obviously is the best DSLR ever produced. It is a MASSIVE upgrade over the 1D3 (60% rez improvement, herculean AF and tracking improvement, ISO improvement, etc. etc.). And thank God it is 1.3x instead of a rez- and-reach-castrated or overpriced FF. Nothing deserves a master thread as much as the 1D4. Now, if we could just find some way to channel the FF-head whiners about the 1.3x into a whiners thread, then the rest of us 1.3x-philes could have a good-old-time.


I often come across the lack of reach with the FF version compared to 1.3x crop, wonder why?

Pixel density wise (per sq. c.m.) -
1D 0.7 MP (Sep.\'01)......................1Ds 1.3 MP (Sep\'02)
1DII/n 1.5 MP (Jan\'04)...................1DsII 1.9 MP (Sep\'04)
1DIII 1.9 MP (Feb\'07).....................1DsIII 2.4 MP (Aug\'07)
1DIV 3.1 MP (Oct\'09)..........................
