Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III (EF mount) - Usage

Usage

This page shows information about the usage of this camera (independent of the lens type).

Usage by Month

The following chart shows the usage of the camera by month as a percentage of the total Reikan FoCal uploads for the month across all cameras of the same brand.

For instance, if 1,000 tests were uploaded for this camera during a single month, and 10,000 tests were uploaded for all cameras of the same manufacturer, the bar would show a height of 10%.

Firmware Versions

The following table shows the firmware versions reported by the camera during testing. This data is compiled only from Camera Mode tests - i.e. those where FoCal is controlling the camera directly, rather than files being loaded for analysis.

The First Seen column shows the date at which the firmware was first seen by FoCal users uploading data.

The Until shows the last time this firmware was seen. If that was within the last 90 days, it will be shown as Recently.

Shutter Counts

The following chart shows the distribution of shutter counts reported by cameras tested with FoCal. The horizontal axis of the chart is grouped into bins of 10,000 shutter actuations.

The following table shows the maximum and median shutter counts for this camera.

The above data cannot easily be compared with other cameras, as a camera released in 2015 is likely to have a much higher maximum and median shutter count value than one release only last year..

The following table shows the maximum and median values averaged across each month since the camera was released. There are still significant variations in this data, but it may give an idea of both camera longevity and popularity.
