That's why Canon also makes the 1D Mk III.
The 1D sensors are smaller in physical size. Therefore they have
smaller photosites, than an equivalent megapixel sensor for a full
frame camera. Smaller photosites mean they typically don't have the
same dynamic range, and therefore image quality, or larger
photosites. So, I don't think that logic follows.

The 1D sensors are smaller in size, but the photosites are larger.
The 1D mkIII has a pitch of 135 photosites/mm, whereas the 1Ds mkIII
has a pitche of 156 photosites/mm. So the 1D has photosites with
about 1/3 more area than the 1Ds photosites.
