The one detail you might have missed about the Canon 1D mkIII
One of the most revolutionary features of the Canon EOS 1D Mark III is probably the Live View.
The 1D Mark III is the first DSLR capable of showing to its user in real time and through the LCD a preview of how the shot will look like once taken ” ((“See it in action in this Canon EOS 1D Mark III video“))”. However the point that many might have missed is that once Live View is activated the camera will lose all its capability to Auto Focus.

Windows Vista corrupting Canon 1D and 1Ds RAW
There is an issue with Canon RAW files that end in .TIF (which are limited to 1D & 1Ds cameras) on Microsoft Windows Vista systems that do not have the Canon RAW codec.
If a user adds metadata, or tags, to one of these RAWs using Windows Photo Gallery or Windows Explorer and the image will be corrupted.
