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.

"After being a casual Canon shooter for years, I decided to up my game with the 40D, 7D 5D MK II and now the 5D MK III. I couldn't be happier! You get the advantages of utilizing the sensor to it's full potential when paired with an ultra-wide lens (such as the Sigma 12-24) or an extremely fast...

Like many, my positive experience with the mark 3 so far is in part due to some of the shortfalls felt by cameras like the 5D mark 2 or the 7D. Both the 5D2 and the 7D had their shortfalls. I feel the 5D3 is much like a merger of the positive sides of both of these cameras.

This 22 megapixel full frame camera is the upgrade of the revered MkII. While there are not many extra pixels the processor, ISO range, burst rate, viewfinder coverage and LCD have all been improved. Auto focus is now by 61 points instead of 9.

It's been nearly four years since Canon released the EOS 5D Mark II, the camera that turned digital still cameras into affordable workhorses for videographers and indie filmmakers. And this next evolution was definitely created with those filmmakers in mind.

This camera in one word...WOW. Upgraded form the mark 2 as they were getting very old for shooting weddings and the first time i picked up the mark 3 it was great. Focus was the biggest difference it is far better than the Mark 2.

Reliable; Superior build quality; Easy to use

Upgraded from a 7D which is a great DSLR but the image quality of the 5D MkIII is absolutely fantastic. Incredibly clear and has great low light capabilities. The autofocus is amazing in all modes & so quick to change. Best decision I have made to upgrade.

What are a few of the principal differences between 5d Mk III Body and its particular competitor the canon eos 6d Body? * Res between both dslr cameras is essentially the same. * The Canon 5D iii offers 61 point AF from 1DX (noteworthy) as opposed to Canon's 6D 11 point AF * Canon's 5D has superior...
