was at Canon HQ this morning and had a play with the new canon 5d mark 3. which was annouced on friday . I have always  liked the 5d I have three of the first 5 d  which are still working  on jobs today as time-lapse camera on projects  and have taken thousands of frames without a problem  and a I have a  5 d mark2  which is one of the main work horses and after playing with the camera today  I think I will ask the Finance mister  (my wife ) about   getting a 5 d mark three  . while I didn’t get to shoot any pictures with the camera  to see image quality , right off you can tell the focus is a lot crisper  than the old one  menus are pretty much the same and lining them up side by side  5d2 and 5d3  they are pretty much the same body size with the 5d mark 3 a little bit more chunky . there are a few new buttons in different place with a one off switch like the 7d , the six frames a second is also more than enough for me , will be great to see a working copy ( this ones a pre production  )

I’m thinking the waiting list is gonna be big though…………
