There has never been any question that the Canon EOS 1Ds produces the best quality images of any handheld digital camera on the market. The only question has been whether or not you wanted to pay $8000 and crush your shoulders under the weight of this monster.

Resolution is up to 21 megapixels (from 12 in the original 1Ds and 16 MP in the Mark II version).

Designed by the president of the British Royal Institute of

Palace is a spectacular building. It is now a hotel, and definitely
worth a visit.
