Canon 5D Mklll

I have recently started using the new 5D Mklll and have to say that Canon seems to have done this one right. First the starting point, it's not the cheapest and not the most expensive, with the 1Dx going for almost double the cost the Mklll.

Now the guts, it is fast enough for those that know how to shoot sports and don't feel they need 10-12 FPS to do the job, at 6FPS that's plenty. The iso capabilities and fast focus system is excellent. With the battery grip, which carries two batteries, the feel is solid and comfortable, without being bulky or too heavy for the average user. While I'm not a mega-pixel guy, using a 22MP camera sure makes for some large files.

I wouldn't waste my money trying to justify a 1Dx at over $7000 when you can have all you'll ever need at half that.
