Sonya,

I have the 1D and the 1Ds; they are both excellent cameras. Having tried
the opposition (Nikon), I am happy with my choice.

Image quality from both is excellent and the files from a 1D will
happily stretch beyond A4, the 1Ds beyond A3, in a glossy magazine. A
1Ds file is far superior to any scan I have ever seen from 35mm and
better than most from 6x7". Truly amazing!

Canon service have frequently fixed items 'on the spot' when I have
called in advance. Fortunately I have had no problems with the s and
only one with the 1D.

There is a substantial price difference between the 1Ds and the Kodak,
much of which is accounted for by the lack off an anti-alias filter on
the Kodak. I seem to remember seeing details of this on Michael
Reichmann's site (http://www.luminous-landscape.com).

Personally, I would never buy Kodak as their service reputation is
apparently beyond awful. Several friends have / had the Kodak 520 /
Canon D2000. None had good words for Kodak back-up. Perhaps others may
comment on this?
