I agree with the above answerer, but I would recommend even more extreme downgrade. Both cameras you are asking about cost multiple thousand dollars, and are targeted towards professionals whose paychecks rely on their equipment. If you don’t personally know whether you need one or the other, then sorry to tell you, but you need neither. I have been on the sidelines at football games that ESPN broadcasts and have gotten great pictures that I needed for work with a Rebel XTi. I would recommend starting with this camera, as it will automate all of the functions for you, but will allow you to manually override specific settings, and then all settings, once you are ready to. Then, once you have experience, make your way to the 40D/50D, etc. And you will notice that you will be a much better photographer. If you get a camera above your skill level now, you are going to feel pretty bad when people with cameras 1/10 the value of yours are getting better pictures.

It’s not about which one is newer – the 1ds has greater production value for its ruggedness, longer battery life, faster and more accurate AF (albeit much heavier). I consider the 5d to be a lighter version of that, more suited for controlled situations since it’s not as responsive (relatively speaking) as a 1d series.

It’s not always about the megapixels and release dates.

The grip section is kinda a throwback from the early days of motor drive when motors were rather large and needed it’s own comparment. In the early days of the digital age much of the camera was contained in a this extended section attached to the bottom of the camera, this included a battery and a magnetic hard-drive. Now while minaturisation of technology has taken place, this bottom section has been kept for ergonomics.

It’s easier to shoot a portrait shot with a vertical grip. While almost all SLR cameras (including modern motor drive 35mm SLRs such as the EOS 1V) will all accept an aditional battery or vertical grip which allows easier portrait shots.

12MP=12 million pixels. Now 4000×3000 is the dimensions of the frame in pixels, and therefore if you multiply these numbers you get 12,000,000 or 12 megapixels.

In fact there is no limit to the maximum size of the image in SI units. You could have an image that was a 4 kilometres wide, and each pixel would be around a metre in width, but this would be the perfect size if you wanted to show someone standing on the moon a picture.
