“Ziv is a photojournalist, so he regularly puts his cameras through tough times. Being based in Israel, he has covered some very difficult and dangerous events, and he needs to know his camera will stand up to the rigours of his daily life. Here he talks about this experience with the EOS-1D Mark III.

Covering events in the way he does means Ziv’s time is very precious. He might be away on an assignment for weeks on end, only returning to base for a short period of time before heading off again.”
