Given how popular the 5D Mark II became in the videography community
We'd have liked to have seen the Mark III's video capabilities improved a bit more. The addition of a dedicated XLR microphone jack is probably a pipe drea

Dynamic range not as good as competitors (deep shadow noise is rather high in raw files)

Only slightly more resolution than fouryearold previous model. Starting price nearly $1
000 higher than predecessor. Builtin mic only offers mono sound.
Noise can get pretty noticeable in the higher end of the ISO range
AF system is complicated and has a steep learning curve
Destructive noise reduction results in mushy JPEGs
Even at base ISO
Visible sharpening artifacts at default settings
Heavy-handed noise reduction leads to lack of low-contrast detail at higher ISOs
Distortion correction not available 'on the fly'
Built-in microphone only monaural
Soft video output with less dynamic range than stills
No built-in AF illuminator
No built-in flash or wireless controller
No built-in Wifi or GPS. Both are expensive accessories
Excellent image quality, Improved handling, More responsive 61point AF system, Fast sixframes per second shooting speed
Nearly $1000 more than the Mark II
The Canon 5D Mark III offers a solid upgrade in every aspect from the 5D Mark II. The handling is improved, the auto-focus is more responsive, the camera shoots more frames per second and images are much cleaner at higher ISO levels. Video quality is b...
Abstract: L a 5D Mk III salió hace unos tres años, pero sigue siendo un modelo muy ágil con especificaciones ganadoras. Es una actualización total respecto a la anterior edición Mk II y ofrece grandes avances en proceso de imagen, enfoque automático y medición, así...

Abstract: Después de años de espera, ha llegado el relevo a una de las cámaras más famosas del mundo. Una cámara réflex que llama la atención de profesionales y aficionados con grandes pretensiones. La Canon EOS 5D Mark III se ha hecho de rogar para acabar ofrec...
L'ergonomie peaufinée, des fonctionnalités sensiblement enrichies avec plus d'options de configuration, des performances supérieures à celles de son prédécesseur, la qualité photo et vidéo toujours excellente
Les photos jpeg en sensibilité ISO basse ne sont pas du niveau de qualité par ailleurs excellent que l'on peut obtenir de cet appareil photo
Bien qu'il ne propose pas une évolution radicale par rapport au Mark II, l'EOS 5D Mark III de Canon vaut tout de même son prix pour ceux qui veulent plus de performances et de possibilités de réglages...
Boîtier tropicalisé, Autofocus du 1D-X, Capteur CMOS 22,3 Mpix qui met l'accent sur la qualité d'image plutôt que sur ne nombre de pixels, Plage ISO très large (de 50 à 102 400 ISO en modes étendus), Enfin une bonne rafale (6 i/s) , Double emplacem
Prix élevé, Concurrencé par un D800 doté de 36 Mpix, Pas de mode 1080p en 50p/60p, Quelques manques : pas de flash intégré, pas d'écran orientable, pas de prise HDMI non compressée
L'EOS 5D Mark III est un appareil qui amène la ligne 5D à maturité : si la qualité d'image est un peu meilleure que par le passé c'est surtout du côté des finitions et de l'équipement que l'appareil marque sa différence avec la génération précédente. De...

Abstract: Quando acquistai la Nikon D90, prima reflex con funzionalità video integrata, non sapevo cosa farmene. L'idea di usare una fotocamera per le riprese era lontanissima da me. Non che la qualità fosse al di sotto delle aspettative, seppur si trattasse di 720...
Abstract: La Eos Mark II è uno dei modelli Canon più venduti di sempre. Ovvio che la sua evoluzione, la Eos Mark III, sia già diventato un feticcio per i fotografi di sponda Canon. Parliamo di un'ammiraglia reflex tra le più complete, equilibrate e accessoriate mai...
Abstract: Di recente abbiamo parlato della Canon 5D mark 3 che solo da qualche giorno è prenotabile su Amazon. Sapete che preferisco Nikon, ma ho avuto sia la 5D mark II che la 7D e devo dire che quest'ultima è l'unica Canon che mi sia veramente piaciuta complessiv...
