Canon EOS 5D Mark III Body

After working with the Mark II for a while I was kind of disappointed with the autofocus, my good old 7D did a much better job in my opinion. After a lot of numbers (the Mark III is just expensive) and some unfortunate misunderstandings at the digicam shop, I took the step and what a world of difference! The autofocus is fast and correct, the many setting options still have to be tested, but you notice the difference from the first shot, this is really what I was looking for, with a few good lenses you can't be beat! In terms of image quality nothing but good, when I thought that the Mark II couldn't get any better I was thoroughly wrong, my first test shots proved that Canon is not at the end of its range yet, especially in the dark areas I sometimes win more than a full stop. It does require a bit more work to understand the extensive menu structure, but once you know your way around, that's not too bad. You just get the feeling like with Lightroom, here too the producer has taken the wishes of the users into account, the Mark III is a real tool in the hands of the photographer, once you get that animal tamed, you can only use it to enjoy!

I have had this very refined camera for a few days now. The Mark III is an improvement of the Mark II in almost all areas. The most striking, however, are: the brand new autofocus system, with significant improvements in capabilities as well as sensitivity of the autofocus points (the five in the middle are also diagonally oriented at f2.8, with many lenses) this gives very fast results. Also the combination of the new sensor, in conjunction with the digic5+, gives an ISO range of 50 to 25600, a gain of 3 f-stops compared to the Mark II (where noise became noticeable above 3200). Furthermore, you can manually set the ISO even higher to 102400. In addition, there is now a dedicated button for live view or filming and other improvements to the exterior of the camera. The menu has also been designed to be more user-friendly. The bottom line is that in my opinion the Mark III is a very thorough improvement in all areas compared to the Mark II.

well I call this my beast. After 5 years of shooting with the Canon EOS 7D, I was in need of renewal and decided to purchase another camera. After a lot of reading and searching and especially a lot of doubt between the new Canon EOS 7D mark 2 or the Canon EOS 5D mark III, I opted for the latter and wow. I have not regretted that for a moment. I was already very satisfied with the 7D but the 5D mark III cannot be compared and is head and shoulders above in all areas... The big difference is the speed of shooting where the 7D takes more photos per second but That's something I've never used and don't need now. More important is the quality of the photos,... the sharpness, color contrast and everything you can think of is so much better. The nice thing is that the ease of use has remained and there is little difference with the 7D, which is handy; Actually, I only have one word for this device; SUBLIME and I think this is a beast of a device... my pet
