VIII. ROCK SOLID RELIABILITY
39
Thanks to the newly-developed, large-capacity (2300 mAh), lithium-ion battery pack,
the new DIGIC III imaging engine, revised circuits, the new LCD monitor with low power
consumption, and fine power control, the number of possible shots is approximately
2200 at 23°C/73°F and 1700 at 0°C/ 32°F. (The EOS-1D Mark II
N
: 1200 shots at 23°C/
73°F or 800 shots at 0°C/32°F)
For the date/time (backup) battery, the same CR2025 lithium battery as the
EOS-1D Mark II
N
is used. The battery life is 5 years.
The AC Adapter Kit ACK-E4 supplies household AC power to the EOS-1D Mark III. It consists
of the AC adapter, power cord, and DC coupler. The DC coupler has a DC cord. The plug
at the end of the DC cord connects to the AC adapter's
terminal; it prevents accidental disconnection.
The previous AC Adapter Kit had the DC cord and AC
adapter as one unit, and the plug was connected to
the DC coupler.
