I upgraded from Canon 70D, and I am very pleased with this camera. It is everything I thought it would be and more!

The black autofocus points problem is supposed to be fixed in a future firmware release, basically they flash black instead of red which is hard (impossible) to see in low light.

Black Autofocus Points

Well this is my first camera since I am getting into food photography, I have rented other cameras before but buying this one was hitting the jackpot. I am slowly learning how to manually work on my settings and the optioare incredible...and the focus is incredible!

The first thing I tested was the 61 points focusing system. Some said it is not any better than 7D 19 points focusing system, I would say that they are wrong! I own a 7D, and I did side by side test, 5D Mark III is certainly better and faster than 7D.

Easy To Use; Fast / Accurate Auto-Focus; Fast Shutter Speed; Good Image Quality; High ISO Performance; Large Clear LCD; Quiet; Strong build

No Build-in Flash Trigger; Poor focus in low light

After Nikon's D90, it felt like the crown of video would go to that firm. But, surprisingly, it was Canon that swooped in, and hoovered up the newly established video-from-SLR market.

Stills are beautiful; capable of producing superb video; lightning-fast auto-focus; rapid shooting; solidly built

No "clean" HDMI output; buttons to control camera settings take some getting used to; we'd love to see some more high frame-rate modes

Breathtaking image quality and a wide range of autofocus options are among the highlights of this superbly rounded package

I use this camera for all types of photography but particularly, Studio, Landscape, Sport and Product Shots.
It is the most versatile camera I have ever used with a wealth of features. Some may question the cost but I consider it to be good value for money.

Bright LCD; Comfortable Controls; Great Image Quality; Incredible Versatility; Strong Construction

Is the 5D Mk III really worth the extra £1k?

higher AF points compared to the previous model

Price; is it really worth it

Overall, there was really more useful improvements on this camera. Whether you are a new canon user or current fan and want to upgrade, this is it - you will not regret if you choose this unit. Hope this review helps a bit in your buying decision.

This camera works better in higher ISOs and you really notice the difference from the previous model; specially if you are a current user like me of the 5D MKII I notice an improved focus performance when im shooting in video Some improvements came from the Canon 1DX model I love the rate button...

There should be a swivel screen which is helpful if your shooting at lower angles

Camera and lens is great! Take $20 off, and leave out 80% of the junk thrown in that doesn't fit. Filters, 2x and .45 does not fit lens. Comes with adapter, but it's smaller so cuts corners off badly. Tripod is flimsy and cheap. 2 spare batteries are very handy. Camera bag is decent but small.
