When Canon released the original 5D full-frame digital SLR, most of the photography world was set back on its heels by the advancement of the state of the art. Though lower in resolution than most APS-C (smaller) sensor cameras today, the trusty 5D, with all its foibles, lousy rear LCD, highly...
Pros:
  • There is nothing in photography and serious video that the Canon 5D Mark III can't handle
  • I have personally never liked the physical form factor of the full-size Canon camera bodies, but the 5D Mark III has slight shutter button angle, control button and control surface improvements, and a couple...
Cons:
  • Early production units of the EOS 5D Mark III gave some early adopters with minor aggravations
  • On some units, there seemed to be noisier image stabilizer operation with certain IS lenses mounted.

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.

Canon EOS 5D Mark III Review

That Canon EOS 5D Mark III is the celebrated successor to the wildly popular 5D Mark II, packing in several significant improvements, new technologies, but only a 22MP sensor. We know that pixel count isn't everything (and we implore that you feel the same) but Canon claims that the sensor employs a...
Pros:
  • Amazing AF system
  • Good high ISO still and video performance
  • lighter body with weather sealing
  • Silent jog dial for uninterrupted audio recording
Cons:
  • Quite pricey compared to the camera it replaces and competes with
  • Noise in video is quite unpleasant (above ISO 8000 in low light

Canon EOS 5D Mark III Review

The 5D Mark III is one of Canon's premier full-frame DSLRs, and for this reason, it's strange to see it lag behind the competition. Despite its shortcomings in sensor tests, battery life and additional features, it remains a good option for professional photographers – especially those with a...
Pros:
  • This camera offers more cross-type focus points than most
Cons:
  • Dynamic range is relatively poor at just 11.7 Evs

Canon EOS 5D Mark III Review: Going Pro

On paper, the Canon 5D Mark III may not seem like a huge step up from the 5D Mark II especially given all the rumors (and long-time anticipation) surrounding its release. In some ways, the Mark III on the surface doesn't dazzle with additional bells and whistles or even any huge leap forward in...
Pros:
  • Excellent photo/video quality
  • Excellent build quality
  • Advanced 61 point AF system
Cons:
  • Best image quality from Raw (vs
