Wide ISO Range By combining the excellent image capture capabilities of the Canon CMOS sensor with advanced data processing technologies, the EOS-1Ds Mark III offers an extraordinarily wide ISO range, making it possible to shoot even in previously impossible lighting conditions. The standard ISO range of 100-1600 can be extended to a remarkable low end of 50 and a high end of 3200. More important, the low-noise performance at high ISO settings makes the entire range usable in real-world shooting situations. 23 Sophisticated Flash Capabilities Canon E-TTL II technology incorporates distance informa- tion from compatible EF lenses to ensure a meticulously precise flash Wireless Speedlitte exposure and deliver versatile Transmitter ST-E2 lighting control. Canon EX Series Speedlites provide advanced wireless and automatic multiple-flash capa- bilities to deliver magnificent lighting solutions for a wide variety of specialized shooting applications. Integrated Cleaning System Because professional photographers must change lenses in all kinds of adverse environments, Canon invented the Integrated Cleaning System, which uses ultrasonic vibration to remove dust that can settle on the sensor surface. 29 Self Cleaning Sensor Unit O" n a recent trip to the White Mountains of California, the camera stood up to the high heat of the day, the bitter cold of nights, and rain didn't faze the camera's weather sealing. The long battery life is essential for cold nights. Other cameras with shorter battery life give up during long exposures in low temperatures. The EOS-1Ds Mark III is the perfect camera for photographing nature and the stars." Jennifer Wu Explorer of Light 22
