If I could justify it, the 1Ds Mark III would be my choice, too.

Been using mine for nearly 3 months now. ZERO problems with focus... INCLUDING servo at fast moving sporting events. I have been nothing but VERY pleased.

I don't guess my experiences will get forwarded along however. People just like to perpetuate negativity on a piece of technology by only forwarding negative links so it seems these days.

+1 from me. I have also been using ming since about 5 days after it came out and have been nothing but pleased. I have no build quality issues and the files look great. The focus is also quite a bit better than the original 5D.

+1 for me as well. No issues at all here....

And while not Antarctica, I have used it here in 5 degree weather with no problems....

The only problem I have had in over 2 months is I can't seem to put it down.
