    This is an interesting path Canon have taken. I would have thought a 7D MKII with full frame would have been the go.

    I agree, that is why I am considering a 5d MarkII yet I am not entirely convinced of the performance.

    6D vs 5D MarkIII

    So has anybody managed to get there hands on a 6D yet?

    I was looking to upgrade from my 500D to a 5D MII, then Canon released the MIII. I thought that was the camera for me, now with the 6D being released I'm thinking that it will probably suit me fine I would be $500 better off.

    So is the focus system on the 5D worth the extra money??? That is all that I can really make out as being an attraction for the 5D MIII over the 6D.

    The things that I don't like about my current 500D:

    Slow shutter response time
    No auto focus in video mode
    Auto focus performance
    Low light performance

    Having said that I will be keeping the 500D as a second camera so that I can minimise the number of lens changes when I'm in a dusty environment...

    What are your thoughts?

    Cheers
    Ron

    Bought a 5D Mark III

    Well I have waited a long time on this and yesterday decided upon the 5D. You can't rush these decisions now can you.

    JB Hi Fi had a discount on and up to the last minute I was still considering the 6D and also the 7D Mark II. Early days, but I'm happy with the decision so far.

    Got so much to learn now.

    Cheers

    It was $2970 plus they did a good deal on a 16G Compact Flash card. I understand that they also include an extra year of warranty support as well.

    We went from a 60D to a 5D III.

    Had the 5D for probably 18 months now,it is fantastic.

    The first 6 months was a big learning curve,but once you get it sorted,you realise how good it is.
