OFFICIAL: CANON EOS 5D Mark III - User Thread - Part 3

And that lens has been there for the longest time...

$4,800 leh... with known issues and potentially unable to service due to no parts, and a electronic MF motor.. I'd rather buy the Nikkor 58mm f/1.2 NOCT. No electronic parts to worry about, at most is aperture blade stuck which can still be resolved. :bsmilie:

I guess that's why its been there for so long! Perhaps the owner should charge $1 just to see and try out the lens in the shop to help recoup his investment!

Canon Rumors is reporting a possible high mega-pixel (35+) full frame coming up soon (CR1).

This obviously will compete head to head with the Nikon D800.

Late August/Early September will be very interesting!

that is already a price of 5dmk3! If someone bought that lens.... it would be a very very very very huge mistake!

i don't know how long but about one month or so at least. Saw and tested it (for fun) during June. Could have been there even before June. Somehow i just have to have "used" the 50mm f1.0 lol

Just bought my 5D MKIII body from CP yesterday.

Luckily I made a reservation for it as it was the last set.
