Canon EOS-1D Mark III and EOS-1Ds Mark III File Corruption
I have been experiencing my files not processing through perfectly with my Canon Mark III 1D and now my Mark III 1Ds with both 3.7.7 and 3.7.8 in both the Tiger and Leopard OS. I thought it was possibly something with 3.7.7 not fully supporting the cameras, but now I am not sure what to think as it is still happening in 3.7.8. Is anyone else experiencing this?? What is happening is one of the images edges every time I process something out has some corruption on one of the edges that is usually about 2 to 3 pixels in size and I have just been cropping off the pixelated corrupt part before I save after working on them. I will attach a detail view of what I am talking about for you to see. It is always on one of the edges of every image and can vary to what side is affected and does the same thing each and every time. I would like to think I am not the only one experiencing this, but it would not be the first time. 🙄

I reported this issue with support, the response was that the issue was due to the size and new format of the canon 1ds mk3 raw files and could not be fixed in any version of C1pro 3. The only option was to wait for C1pro4 or use the c1 4 version. (C1pro4 is according to support, months away from a release.) I asked for a workaround from within c1pro to crop the bit of the raw file that can't be handled correctly. they came back saying that it wasn't a clean solution. My reply was this... i'm not keen to figure a workflow solution out as the issue is with capture one/canon. i think that an 'unclean workaround' from phase one is more relevant than the unclean claim of supporting the MK3 raw files. Any workflow workaround wouldn't be able to account for in c1pro cropping and rotating, as the raw file can't be cropped pre-processing except by the processing software.
I reiterate my request for a solution within c1pro even if you want to call it a beta or 3.7.8b to differentiate it from the official release. I know your RnD folks want to move onto to the c1pro4 but having worked so hard to get this half baked level of support for the MK3 files seems to render it bit of a waste of energy.
I know it sounded a bit kurt (sorry support!) but this is the solution that would best suit us, and i dare say i'm not alone.
If you agree with this can you say a couple of words to encourage the RnD team to listen.
EDIT: just heard back from support... they will take this argument back to RnD based on my request... -
Hi-
This has the attention of the R+D department
Please read the following about this issue and suggestions regarding workaround;

It's hard to believe that the developers didn't see this when writing the software. Actually you have to believe that they did see it and someone thought it would be acceptable to release it anyway. "It's only on one edge. Maybe the poor users won't notice." Unbelievable. I REALLY want Phase to get it right because I really hate the ACR/LR interface, but this is ridiculous. I'm almost beyond words...and again, the lamest of responses to a real problem. -
i have used c1 pro 3.7.7 without any major issues when processing raw files with my 1DS MK2 canon but once i switched to 3.7.8 at least 1 out of 10 images processed has at least half of the frame covered with a black screen! this is so frustrating! it seemed like 3.7.8 has a lot of issues and reading from the support was not helpful as they say it does not support CANON 1DS MK3 but i am using 1DS MK2! to phase one techs... WHAT HAPPENED HERE??????? i used c1 pro for almost 4 yea\\rs without a hitch and gladly paid for the software and now i feel cheated! they dont seemed to be interested in supporting c1pro 3.7.8 they expect us to wait for C1Pro 4 which is still not out yet! folks we got a lot of work to do and precious time is wasted here! Frankly i am not happy with this! 🤬 -
i just checked the release note, it would appear that it will not support canon 1DS mk2 tethered when used with mac osx 10.5.x or leopard. i am not inclined to backtrack my os to 10.4 etc.. as this is a lot of work and far too much trouble. i will just stay with the 3.7.8 as i only got this version installed on my macbook pro while my desktop handles all the processing, for that, i will stick to 3.7.7 as i have no issues with it. -
Capture One Pro 3.7.8 and 3.7.9 both support the Mk2 tethered... it is OSX 10.5.2 that causes an issue because Apple included tethering programs for apreture... We have a very simlpe work-around that solves the issue here: http://www.phaseone.com/HOME/Content/Su ... nguageID=1 -

Just updated to 3.7.9 still getting the 4 pixel line on 1ds Mk3 files 😕
Setup is Quad G5 10.5.3 with 8.5gb RAM, really hoped for a fix Phaseone......
Same here. From my experience and from the release notes it seems that it was fixed for the 1D Mk III only, not the 1Ds Mk III. Not a pleasant surprise. -
Hello
I care to comment. It was simply missed it is as easy as that. It was logged as an issue on 1D mkIII but not 1Ds mkIII.
3.7.9 was primarily released for the blackbar issue and some other small fixes was implemented at the same time like default shooting format always being IIQ L for our Phase One camera back customers!
Now the programmers are back on track to develop CO 4.x PRO version, I for one is excited about this!
