Canon's EOS-1D will be the first skilled digital SLR from Canon ever since the EOS-D2000 (launched in March 1998 which was a collaborative effort with Kodak, at the same time known as the Kodak DCS 520). Indeed, the EOS-1D is the 1st all Canon skilled digital SLR. Canon themselves confess that after the EOS-D2000 they were caught dragging their heels somewhat when Nikon released the D1 but believe that they're coming rear strong with the four megapixel 8 fps EOS-1D.
The EOS-1D is according to the excellent (and highly praised) EOS-1V specialist film SLR. The 1D's body is virtually similar to an EOS-1V with the additional powerdrive booster joined. The major differences are the EOS-1D's battery and vertical grip have now turn out to be a moulded part from the camera physique, and of course that the backside with the digital camera owners an LCD monitor with variety of 'digital' controls and buttons.
