Thanks for the great site, the four reviews of the 7d have persuaded me that its a great camera! Have you been able to get hold of a production 1d mkIV yet, and if so any idea when you will be able to post the first of the field reviews. I’m currently using a 40d for horseracing, but finding it struggles with focusing on upto 16 subjects moving at 50kph at a distance of 20m and jumping fences and I’m finding it difficult to choose between the 7d and the mkIV as the upgrade. I’m leaning towards the 1d, on the basis that I should be able to get clean images at shutter speeds of 1/2000+ with ISO of 1600+, and an aperture of between f4 & f8 (using 70-200/2.8).

Hi Speed2

I have borrowed a Canon 1D Mark IV (not Mark II as i first wrote) for only 2-3 days, and I have done some tests. I hope to give you some real field review soon, but I first need a camera!!

So far all reviews for the Mark IV show this to be an excellent Camera worth the money and now there’s a new firmware to address the AF tracking performance. It had a problem? Strange, didn’t read anything about that being a problem in any of the reviews. Canon releasing a fix before user complaints? That’s a first. But it’s your review Ole I’m waiting for. I don’t want to rush you. (yes i do…lol) You done yet?

Hi Peter

I attach a microphone to the 5D Mark II and 7D with a mini-Jack connection. But for best result I use an external device…
