The 5D Mark III is a beautifully crafted piece of camera gear. It is big, not huge, so it is also a commitment you have to make if you plan to carry it around all day. The menu is extensive but easy to handle, especially when you use the two different wheels for navigation.

Upgraded from my 5D Mk II to the Mk III and it was worth the money. I thought of maybe going with the 6D which is about about half of the price, but...

Autofocus system has been much improved

can't think of anything...

There is 5D Mark 4 and 6D Mark 2, but 5D Mark 3 is the best one. 5D Mark 4 is just minor update from 5Dmk3. 6Dmk2 has many features, but it can't bit 5Dmk3's outcome. I love 5Dmk3 :)

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

This camera is a dream come true. I've had it for 2 weeks and I've filmed a TV commercial, filmed a wedding video, shot engagement pics, portraits, graduation pics, corporate promo, North Shore surf photos and it's been amazing in all situations.

Silent shooting; Auto focus; Menu; Button Layout; Low light; New video codec

6 fps too slow for sports; The zoom button location

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.

Fast / Accurate Auto-Focus; High ISO Performance; Quiet

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

I have purchased this camera just one week back, and trust me it can create wonders.I went to hill statation with my friends and Canon EOS was with me.I mean Vow what pictures this camera take ,today when I look at this picture I feel I am at the Hill station,its high resolution quality gives me the...

It has got 3.2"clear view,Dual CF and SD memory slots,61-point high density AF

no cons as such

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
