Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III and Aperture 2?

I was wondering if anyone using a Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III can confirm if they're able to shoot tethered using Aperture 2? Though it's listed under the RAW support page, this model of camera is not supported in the knowledge base article called: Tips on tethered shooting.
I tried the demo and though it registered my camera, it wouldn't allow me to capture. Not sure if it's a limitation of the demo, or ignorance on my part. If you know for certain one way or another, please share.
Thanks.

To the best of my knowledge the tethered shooting does not work with any of the newer Canon DSLRs. A workaround that may be good for you is the Aperture hot folder script that I used with Aperture 1.5. If you can't find t just hit the thread back.

  • Canon 1Ds Mark III and Aperture - MJK

    Just starting using new Canon 1Ds Mark III with Aperture. I am a new APerture and new Apple user.
    Photos import fine into Project. When I do any adjustments the photo gets completely distorted in the viewer. It is mostly white with pieces of the photo. Completely jumbled with mostly white space. Photo still emails fine, can't get my Epson 2400 working yet, so not sure about print. Anyone have any answers?
    THANKS!!!

    Hello:
    Today I experienced same problem with the pictures. Happened right after I downloaded pictures (RAW) I took today. I used a Canon 20D. The problem went away when I shut down Aperture and re-started it. Hope it works for you.

    P.S. In my case, Aperture keeps getting buggier and buggier.

  • Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III RAW support PLEASE!

    Seriously, the camera was announced in August 2007. 6 months have passed and Apple has failed to provide a RAW support update for this camera!
    Why is this program targeted towards professionals if RAW support takes longer than a half a year?
    If this goes on much longer, I might have to make the dreaded switch to Lightroom. And i truly do not want to do that.
    Sorry, I am upset.

    Large Photographic software developers (of which I'd consider Apple, with its iPhoto and Aperture applications, to be part of the group) can get early access to preproduction copies these high end cameras so their RAW definitions can be nearly complete at camera rollout time.
    This is a process problem that Apple has (batching RAW definition creation and distribution for all cameras, mostly all those digicams, with OS updates). Apple needs to see this (time delay) is a problem for their Pro application users and set up a new process to to fast-track DSLR RAW definitions (creation/distribution).
    The E-3 has been waiting since its release in October as well.
    Word is that the new Nikon Defs are in the OS X 10.5.2 update (according to beta testers), so the E-3 and Cannon EOS 1Ds Mark III is probably in there too. Couple of weeks now...would be the expectation...no word on what you'd do if you're running 10.4.

  • Canon EOS 5D Mark III and Tamron lens

    I have just ordered a EOS Mark III body and a Canon 70-200 F/2.8 II USM IS lens. Now I want a wide angle zoom lens to complete the package. I'm interested in a 24-70 f/2.8 lens. Canon's version does not have an image stabalizer and is over $2000. Tamron offers the same focal and aperture in their 24-70 f/2.8 with an image stabalizer for around $1300. Are there any issues concerning using a Tamron lens on a Canon body?

    Really folks, when I joined this forum I had no idea it was for only Canon related issues and did not mean to insult the hosts. I am a Canon gal. I also own a Canon 7D. I wish all my equipment could be Canon. I have just spent a great deal of time and money researching and purchasing a Canon 5D Mark III and the Canon 70-200 F/2.8 II USM IS lens. I don’t want to settle for less. But now to complete the package I really want a 24-70mm f/2.8 lens. I would have no doubts whatsoever about the Canon even at their price if it had IS. I do not want to regret not having the f.2.8 as I may be in some low light situations during my travels, or the IS as I may not be able to handle a camera and lens of that weight without a tripod. I bought the best tripod I could find made of carbon fiber( I won’t mention the name). It is compact, very light and has a load capacity of 25lbs. I plan on using it most of the time but there will be times that I just won’t have time to set it up.
    I have read a lot of reviews and 90% of them regret not having IS. After comparing the Tamron with the Canon on other sites that test different products, there didn’t seem to be too much difference in performance of either lens. Canon was favored as it should be, but for the price comparison and no IS it failed to make that big of an impression. I think the manufacturers of Canon know this and will probably come out with another version that includes IS. As Bob said…“if a competitor's lens is well regarded for whatever reason, it's in Canon's interest to know that and to understand why. And if a Tamron lens makes a 5D3 affordable by someone who would otherwise buy a Sony, I think Canon would gladly take his money.” That’s an excellent point. And Bob, I have considered the Canon 24-70 f/4 but I really feel that maximum aperture over the total focal range is a plus that only 2.8 can give.
    Ebbigs 1, I have considered the Sigma 24-70 f/2.8 but it doesn’t have IS. The price certainly is appealing, but the Tamron even though more expensive is a better lens (from what I‘ve read). I do agree about the L quality and durability of the Canon lens however and I would buy it if not for the IS. I am getting ready for a long trip and am in need of a wide angle zoom lens as soon as possible.
    I came here to find out if anyone knew if there were any issues with the Canon mount accepting a Tamron as I have never used anything but a Canon lens on my Canon cameras. Thank you for reading my rather long winded response and I apologize if I have offended anyone.

  • SRaw support for Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III

    I just shot some images in sRaw and was suprised to find the "unsupported image format" message...
    I'm using Ap2, 10.5.2 and the latest graphics libraries...
    Is this not supported or am I experiencing a unique problem?
    I realize the convert to DNG is a workaround - but I'd rather not...

    When the 1D Mark III came out (first with sRaw), I saw someone at dpreview (a sports photographer) saying that for the sort of work he did, the resolution wasn't important, but that it would be valuable to be able to send a smaller file wirelessly (using the WFT-1 or whatever it is called) to his editor. The smaller file size would speed up transfers.
    On a 1Ds Mark III, the 5MP sRaw seems more useful to me, as it is more than enough for casual shooting. Though, why you would bring a 1DsIII for casual shooting is beyond me.

  • O.T. New Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III  - 21 megapixel full frame slr

    Rumoured body price on Amazon $8000
    http://www.dpreview.com/news/0708/07082009canoneos1dsmarkiii.asp

    That was apparently the price Amazon showed before Canon presumably got them to pull the listing - it seems they jumped the gun on publicising the new camera.
    U.S. customers shouldn't complain as, on current form, it'll probably be nearer £8000 in the U.K. !

  • Canon EOS 5D Mark III Using a 70-300mm Lens without a flash?

    I just recently purchased a Canon EOS 5D Mark III and would like to know what you would recommend as a good setting to take photos of someone bowling at a center with the camera using a Canon 70-300mm Lens without a flash? Thanks in advance!

    Yes the black one since that is the one I have at this time and it seems to work! Why wouldn't I want to use this one?

  • Nutzt Lightroom die Korrekturdaten für Vignettierung und Aberration der Canon EOS 5D Mark III?

    Hallo,
    in der Canon EOS 5D Mark III, und auch weiteren Kameras, kann man ja direkt die Objektivkorrektur für Vignettierung und Aberration aktivieren, so dass diese beim RAW-Bild hinterlegt sind.
    Wisst ihr zufällig ob Lightroom diese Daten auch verwendet und verarbeitet?
    Meinen Versuchen zufolge scheinen diese Daten nicht verwendet zu werden.
    Hintergrund ist dass die Korrekturdaten von Canon natürlich schneller zur Verfügung stehen als von Lightroom bzw. auch vollständiger, da u. a. keine Korrekturdaten von meinem Objektiv mit 2x III Extender zur Verfügung stehen, Canon diese jedoch schon hat.
    Vielen Dank!

    Ich habe sie seit einiger Zeit, bin mit dem Rauschverhalten sehr glücklich und man kann sogar die H-Einstellung 3200 gut verwenden, wenn man exakt belichtet und nachher noch einen Rauschfilter verwendet bzw RAW fotografiert. Allerdings kenne ich die 1d Mk II selbst in der Praxis nicht und habe keinen vergleich, die Kollegen sind eigentlich auch mit deren Rauschverhalten ganz zufrieden. Allerdings haben immer mehr 1D-Nutzer zusätzlich noch eine 5D. Nur ist die 5D im Vergleich seeeeehr gemäääääähhchchlichh... mit den 3B/s. Wenn dich das nicht stört... Auch den Autofokus finde ich im Vergleich zu 20D , die ich auch noch habe, noch zuverlässiger, insbesondere mit dem Sigma 2,8/120-300. Das machte bei der 20D gelegentlich Probleme, mit der 5D eigentlich gar nicht mehr.
    Andererseits hat ein Fotokollege, dem ich sein 2,8/300 von Canon abkaufen wollte, einen kleinen Test durchgeführt. Er wollte sehen, wie viel besser meine 5D gegen seine 1DmkII ist (er ist auch Agenturfotograf). Er hatte bei ISO 100/400 ein paar Vergleichsbilder gemacht. Letzlich kam er zum Ergebnis, dass eine 5D keinen richtigen Qualitätssprung darstellt - er hat sich jetzt eine 1Ds MkII mit 16 MP gekauft und ist super zufrieden. Wobei die 5D bei hohen ISO laut ColorFoto besser als die 1Ds sein soll. Einen echten vergleich konnte ich selbst zur 1Ds mit der 5D nicht machen.
    Andererseits war aus meiner 5D das Sigma 120-300 bei 300 mm nicht sichtbar schlechter als das Canon und "nur" wegen dem IS wollte ich das Geld auch nicht ausgeben und Zoomen ist manchemal saupraktisch... nur sind die 300 mm bei Sigma etwas weniger als bei Canon - liegt wohl an der Toleranz, ebenso, wie sie 2,8 da nicht wirklich 2,8 dondern eher 3,2 oder 3,5.
    Wie lautete nochmal die Frage??
    ;o)

    Hi WC!
    Thanks for posting on the forum.
    It is very likely that the issue is with the cards you have tried and not the camera. 
    You mentioned that you were going to try a faster card. 
    Were you able to do so yet? 
    If so, how did the faster card perform?
    Do you experience the same issue when recording to a high-speed CF card instead of an SD card?

  • Canon EOS 5d Mark III

    I bought yesterday the Canon EOS 5D Mark III, when can I get the Camera RAW 6.7 for Lightroom 4.0?

    Several abusive replies have been deleted from this discussion. Personal attacks on other users will not be tolerated.
    Support for the 5D MklII is included in LR4.1, and how that works (including sharpening) is of course a perfectly-valid point of discussion. Whether the camera itself is sharp or not isn't anything to do with Adobe software, and everyone is entitled to their own opinions. I know people who think it's fine, and others who've taken their bodies apart to remove the OLPF. Both are convinced about what they see, and they'd argue about it all night.
    If you put three photographers in a room you get four opinions on which camera to use, but let's keep things polite.

  • Is the Canon EOS 1Ds Mark II compatible with iPad Connection Kit

    Hi All,
    First post in the forum. I was wondering if the Canon EOS 1Ds Mark II is compatible with the iPad connection kit via USB, as it uses CompactFlash not SD.
    Thanks
    Dill

    Lightworksuk-
    I would think so.  My 5D Mark II and three other Canon cameras are compatible.
    Some people have received an error message that their camera drew too much current from the USB adapter.  In those cameras, there was usually a setting option to charge their batteries from the USB cable.  By turning that option to NOT charge, the problem went away.
    There are several CF to USB adapters on the market.  I have a couple that work with the Camera Connection Kit's USB adapter, but others that draw too much current.  For those, as well as cameras that draw too much current, use of a powered USB hub may solve the problem.

  • Best External Stereo Microphone for the Canon EOS D5 Mark iii

    I am looking to purchase an external stereo microphone for my Canon EOS 5D Mark iii camera. Will the Canon External Stereo Microphone, DM 100, work on the Canon  EOS D5 Mark iii? If not, do you have recommendation for an external stereo microphone?
    Thank you.
    Regards,

    I don't know if it is the best, but I use one of these on my 5D III.

  • IPhone and  Canon 1DS Mark III and Nikon D3

    Neither Apple's iPhoto or Aperture recognize the top of the line Canon Mark III 1DS, or the Nikon D3. I have tried to import RAW images from both cameras to no avail. What is the delay?
    Thanks, Norm

    I believe that RAW support for the Canon Mark III AND the Nikon D3 was just added in OS 10.5.2 release

  • .mov Files from Canon EOS 5D Mark II and Ipod Nano

    I am looking at purchasing both these items with their promise to
    deliver video files in the .mov format.
    I am wondering whether anyone can confirm that is a 1-step transfer
    into FCP, or is there fine print I need to read ? I understand going in
    that the video quality of the Nano will be what it is, but wonder also
    if anyone has experience with the video coming out of the Canon EOS 5D
    Mark II ?
    Thanks for any help,
    Sterne

    Let's get into a little more detail.
    The moniker ".mov" doesn't really mean much. It means "a movie that QT can play back" - a very generic statement. Saying that a movie is a QuickTime movie is saying nothing of the underlying codec. You might have a hundred movie files with the ending ".mov" and they could all be using different codecs like: Motion Jpeg, DV, XDCam, DVCPro, DVCPro HD, H.264 and so on.... So to answer the question, "...Does the fact that it is already an .mov file make it more of a drag and drop thing?" The answer is, No. Here's why:
    The 5D (and 7D) shoot a ".mov" file, yes. But specifically it's of the H.264 flavor. This is a burdensome codec. It's processor intensive. It's not meant for editing, it's meant for delivery. Furthermore, if there are going to be advances with it's native editability it's going to happen at the happen on hardware and software that are of the most current standards. And besides, that's still a big if.
    There are no current machines that have true drag-drop-edit (without pain) the raw Canon .mov files. If you're thinking your current computer can't handle "hi-def footage" then it most certainly won't handle the (HD) camera native files. That doesn't mean you can't edit the footage. You'll just be back to what's been mentioned before: transcoding. You can always transcode to the highest quality codec that your Mac can handle and edit in that format. DVCPro HD? DV, at least! Don't know - whatever your machine can handle.
    Summary: Native 5D camera files ---> FCP = painful, even with newest hardware/software. Rule is transcode. This is the only way people are efficiently working with this footage right now.
    Footage Quality - it's quite nice! There's tons of video all over Vimeo with it now. It's a great concept that will only get better. Snoop around here too. There are tons of sample footage on the web. It is highly compressed though. All that info, and with tiny files, the information is going someplace! Being discarded. Learning to maximize an environment's given conditions will lead to minimizing the camera's inherent artifacts.
    The next question to ask yourself is do you want this camera mostly for the HD movie mode or photography? The new 7D has some compromises compared to the 5D but has some things that the 5D doesn't, yet. Like framerates. The 5D is, for now, strictly 30P, while the 7D sports 24P, 25P 30P and 50P & 60P at 720P (instead of the full 1920x1200).
    Hopefully that answers some questions regarding FCP dealing with the native camera files. Other than that: 5D or 7D? Both have some worthwhile merits to consider.
