Lovely isn't it :)
I had the EF85L 1.2 II and EF24-70L with me; both of which are amazing; plus Canon's EF15 2.8 Fisheye. Having come from a pair of 5D2's, the ISO on the 1Ds3 did startle me when it abruptly stopped at 1600; but my god, it's as clean as a whistle all the way there! Plus you get an AF system that you can actually rely on, even if you are pissed out of your skull. The AF on the 5D2 is simply hideous; your 400's probably more reliable if I can remember my old 350 and 40. Oh, and it's built like a tank. Next wedding i'm doing will be with a 1Ds3, 1D4, and 5D2; should be quite interesting to see the ratio of wobbly shots and keepers between each body; though in my experience of the 5D2, I find half the time is simply refuses to even lock, meaning you can't even take a shot before you upload it completely out of focus. An odd camera, given it's sales
