Should I buy 5D MkIII now?

If this is a concern to you , then I suggest you stay out from buying first until Canon give a fix on that. Other than that, if the light leak is not an issue for you, then by all means go and buy without regrets.

I agree with Ahpan, if ure worried, wait lor. If no patience to wait, then plunge and buy. I guess cents and dollars is your main issue then wait is the best option. Question is, how long can u wait? I'm not so sure about the light leak thing, din notice anything amiss. I shoot for fun anyway~

Agree with above posters. If not in a hurry anyway, I would just wait for Canon to provide proper closure to the aforementioned issues.

y would you need to do that? i dont shoot with the lcd amd lens cap on. in fact i only look into the lcd to see which WB, af mode and metering i am using.

iso, shutter speed and aperture is displayed through the view finder.

What I mean is that if the LCD leak issue only affect the auto metering, then it does not matter to me at all cos I always set exposure manually. ^^

If worries, just wait for a solution, and buy a bug free set then....
