anyone got one?
lure me with stories of low moiré and noiseless 6400 iso's..
i am trying to work out how to mortgage our futures to replace the currently fucked 7D..

i have a II and have played around with a III, which seems only worth it for the autofocus improvements. not really a big deal compared to the jump that was the I to the II. but certainly still above the 7.
if you can get a newish II for cheap, might be worth it more.
- I have both, body on 3 has better button positioning. Also like the integrated level... otherwise, pretty similar.zarkonite

I shoot nikon, but often borrow a friend's 5D mark II for video and other stuff.....
I asked him if he'd be getting at 5D mark III and he told me he rented one, found it much better AutoFocus, slightly better high ISO, but otherwise to him, not worth the $$....
But, in either case, they're both worlds ahead of the 7D in terms of high-iSO noise....

I have a 5D 3.... i wasn't upgrading from a mark 2 or 7d... so it was an easy choice for me. Comparatively to those two cameras i don't have alot to offer. But I am beyond satisfied with this camera, coupled with some great lenses i've had amazing results. It's performance in low light is ridiculous and enables me to take all sorts of shots i would never have thought possible. If you're buying it for video only i would consider a few other options that are out there right now... if you need something that can be compact, shoot still and still manage great video then yes, i would highly recommend.

got it, upgraded from mark II actually, I'm very satisfied with it. Autofocus system is awesome; sensor is better, much crisper images and at iso 800 / 1000 hardly any noise. I'm happy canon didn follow the megapixel wars and focussed on other things...
- do you do much video? have you noticed much reducing in aliasing and moiré? the 7d is pretty bad in some instancesautoflavour

Hey Auto, I checked, I have the feeling its sharper dan MKIII,
controls now are also much better tho, MKII was very limited in this.
