Man that's one tough camera!!! Even with several strikes of the hammer he couldn't break it!

His sorry life must be so devoid of purpose that he has to find such acts to get some attention.

Thanks for sharing!

From the pics, we can now realize how well built the 5D Mark III is. Look at all the details and sealing mechanism. Even the BG-E11 battery grip uses the 1D series style of battery loading.

If this is the same DCFever of the SimCity Mall in Mongkok, Hong Kong, I've been to it several times. Their prices are quite competitive.

Great photos of the 5D3!

Didn't fully test it but i think the af points doesn't rotate with the orientation like the 7d.

The grip feels really good for big hands like mine. It feels more ergo.

Using af while in vid is very quick too. Im surprised at the improvement from mk ii.

Bro, you did not change the function for the orientation in the camera lah.

Hehe, possible coz it's disabled by default in 7D, but once I enabled it, I never disabled it anymore!

This month is seriously very very long... :-/
