Thanks gtg sounds like this will be the one. I just hope that 6fps will be enough to capture expression in the action. Now to find a well priced body hence my other thread

Nice shots. I would try to get closer to the subject and increase detail and interest :)

Nice but slightly over exposed ?

I am too looking at a choice of 10 or 6 fps cameras and have been told that prediction is key rather than long bursts

Thanks for the replies. I have a nifty fifty for portrait and creative, and I have the 70-200 f4 L IS for sports. Image quality required is high print quality. I too was leaning in the direction of the 5d3 as I have been advised that IQ is everything. I'll check out the spec of the 1d4 I...

Thanks all I will check the web again today and see what comes up. Otherwise number 2

Nice - thank you gives me confidence. A pro friend told me to ignore body condition so long as it's 100% working it's only cosmetics

Thank you all. I have found one at park and MPB. Park wont tell me the shutter count, MPB - Well used 97K shutter.

Thanks for the replies, I had a feeling most would suggest waiting for a better one. The only thing is that all of the ones with a better condition or lower count go for more than I can afford. Hypothetical question - if these were the last mk iii on the planet which would you choose and why ?

Good call but been trolling these for weeks and have yet to catch one go at my budget. The prices of the ones I have posted about are £999 for the 55K shutter with wear and £850 for the one with 200418 releases. A new shutter would be £240 so at £850 + £240 sometime in the future possibly.
