Canon EOS 5D Mark III Digital Camera Review

Usability

The 5D Mark III has been given a host of usability upgrades to better integrate into professional photography and videography workflows. The camera now features dual card slots (one CF, one SD), an image metatag rating button, integrated SMPTE timecoding for multi-camera shoots, and an autofocus system that is worlds ahead of the one found in the 5D Mark II. All this adds up to a camera that will do everything the Mark III did for professionals, but in a faster, safer, more efficient manner. The camera also features some simpler tricks for those who aren't experienced in photography, such as a full automatic+ mode and a creative photo button.
