|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board first personal impressions of the 1dmk4 David Welker, Photographer, Student/Intern Springfield | MO | USA | Posted: 11:15 PM on 11.12.09 ->> My first impressions are that this is a solid camera. it seemed much lighter than my 1dmk2n but maybe that's the weight of the 300 2,8 I don't know. Very slick camera however. I might have to get one. Af was fast and no skimping on the build obviously. It is showing to be a great addition to a gear bag.  This post is:  Informative (1) | Funny (0) | Huh?

How was the High ISO compared to the 7D?  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I typed that up on my phone last night. But depending on how crammed I become in the next day, I will have a larger more in depth review on the new release.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Your comments make it appear you have not received one, but rather handled a demonstration model at an event.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I didn't expect them to have a mk4 there. However I did many tests as there was no one there. So I have not taken delivery of one yet. However after testing it out I might. Like I said I will be posting a decent review when I don't have to type on my phone.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

We just found out that my grandfather has been diagnosed with cancer. They operated on him yesterday, found a "massive" tumor and it has spread. They are saying that he is in Stage D, Im not sure what that means but that is where he is at. So sorry for not getting to this yet and I appreciate your patience.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I had read his review and it is pretty much spot on from what I have experienced with it. I was pleased. I just wanted to give another opinion as well. Again thanks for posting that.
