Highly doubt there will be any interest on here, but what the hell…

I’m selling my Canon EOS-1D Classic.

Includes:  
EOS-1D body  
Strap  
Lens cover  
Canon NC-E2 battery charger  
Canon NP-E3 battery  
Generic battery

Price: $450 or BO

Summary:

This is the 1st generation of Canon’s pro level DSLR that you see all the photographers using on the sidelines of NFL, NHL, NBA, etc.  
It shoots a blazing fast 8 frames per second, has a 45 point auto focus system and a weather-sealed body.

I just got it back from Canon to have the sensor cleaned. They adjusted exposure and focus, cleaned and realigned the C-MOS.  
So basically this all means it was just given a through tune-up by Canon and its good to go!

It’s a great camera, but I just don’t use it to its full potential.  
Don’t let the 4.2Mgpix scare you either, this will take pictures that  
will run circles around a Canon Rebel, Nikon D40, D50, D90, etc. This is a great camera for someone looking to get into sports photography, auto racing, air shows, basically anything that moves fast.

I posted a couple pics and if anyone’s seriously interested I can send you  
more, or pics taken from the camera.

Specs:

Canon’s flagship EOS-1D claims the position of the world’s leading all-around  
professional digital camera. This unique camera has a continuous shooting speed of 8  
frames per second in either Single Shot or AI Servo mode and can sustain this for 21  
frame bursts. The high-resolution XL (eXtra Large) CCD uses 4.15 megapixels to create  
a true 11.7 MB file in a photographic 2: 3 aspect ratio.The combination of both speed  
and image quality makes the EOS-1D the most well-balanced professional camera  
available today. Professionals no longer need to sacrifice either the speed demanded by  
the F1 sports photographer, or the high-resolution required for studio shoots, for the  
EOS-1D offers both. Photographers can now enjoy a digital camera that incorporates  
the highest professional features acclaimed in the current award-winning EOS-1V.  
These include 45-point area auto focus, 21 zone metering, familiar EOS ergonomic  
layout and the camera’s renowned toughness and durability.

I’m assuming you’re not going to throw any sort of lens in there 🙂

For the right price I will 😉

Being serious though, this would be a great lens to start off with. It is by far the best lens dollar/quality wise Canon makes!
