  Hi All,

  Bought a 7D a while back to compliment the 1Ds 2.
  But I find I’m using the 7D more and the 1Ds2 less because it’s smaller and lighter, so I’ve decided to part company with the 1Ds 2.
  If you’re looking at this ad you probably know this camera’s strengths, but the main features would be:

  16.7 Mp full frame sensor
  Robust weather sealed construction
  Dual Format Cards (CF & SD) You can write to both cards at the same time, meaning you never have to worry about losing images due to a corrupt card, because you have it backed up.

  It’s a super camera, I’m just not getting enough use to justify keeping it.
  It comes with box, leads, cd, manual, charger and three batteries.
  It’s in excellent condition, with no issues (dings, dents, etc)
  Everything working perfect.
  I checked the sutter count, following web instructions and the figure I got was 9264 actuations.
  I thought it would have been more, but then I wasn’t counting :D (the 1Ds 2 shutter is rated by Canon at 200,000 actuations)
  I came across a web site recently that reckoned the 1ds 2 shutter should be rated more like 750,000 actuations
  I’ll post some pics up at the weekend (if it’s still for sale)
  It has a split image screen fitted (I used manual focus lenses a lot) which works fine in AF also, but the original screen is also included.
  It makes a super wedding camera because:
  Superb image quality
  Robust & Weather sealed
  Never have to worry about losing images because they can be recorded to two cards simultaneously.

  I was looking around for FF camera. Considering to buy 5D, but U offer is tempting. Any chance to meet U tomorrow? I’d like to check, how it will perform with sigma 50/1.4 and 150/2,8. More info about the set: chargers, batts….. if any?
