Canon Eos 5D Mark Iii 22.3 Megapixel Digital Slr Camera Body Only - Black
A little overpriced for the meager upgrades in this camera. Nothing extraordinary-- just a revised 5D with some less-then-new Canon upgrades. Not the most exciting purchase if you already own the Mark II.
Pros:
- Silent ing mode
- upgraded ISO levels
- redesigned button layout
Cons:
- Terrible focus on the outer focus points when using fast primes at 50mm or wider (very poor on the 50L)
- Will constantly front focus, it's a known problem that makes the new autofocus system useless for wedding photographers
- Works great for telephoto lenses

The Myth of DPI
Dpi has nothing to do with image resolution. Dpi is a specification that we input in the file info that is relevant to a printer when a physical copy is to be printed. What matters is "X pixels by Y pixels" when it comes to sharpness of the image.

Taking the 5D to Mark III
It may not look like it from the base specifications alone, but the EOS 5D Mark III is a great improvement over its predecessor in every way that counts - autofocus, exposure and ISO have all had the benefit of the technological improvements Canon has gained since the 5D Mark II was released.
Pros:
- Greatly improved autofocus
- excellent high ISO performance
Cons:
- Redesigned controls may take some getting used to

Canon EOS 5D Mark III review: Serious piece of kit, but comes at a serious price
Not everyone will be able to afford a 5D Mark III, but if you're serious about movie making on a budget then this is a serious piece of kit via which to do it Not a camcorder, but included because Digital SLRs have really taken off the past couple of years as primary tools for ‘videographers'.
Pros:
- Setting a new benchmark for amateur and independent film makers
- affordable alternative to pro broadcast cameras
- rock solid workhorse-like build
Cons:
- Pricey if you don't require broadcast quality video
- slight delay whilst mirror mechanism flips out of the way before video recording can commence
- clip duration limited to just under 30 minutes as it's a camera not a camcorder

5D owners may well have felt that the MkII didn't really do enough to grab their attention because it didn't address enough of its older sibling's deficiencies. The increased resolution was attractive, but again not enough on its own.
