Just a quick post to point you to the work of my friend Mike Kobal. These are summer fashion shots done using a [shoplink 2431]EOS 5D Mark III[/shoplink] with the kit lens. If you want to see more pics taken with a 5D Mark III (and uploaded to Flickr) have a look here.

Canon released a product advisory for the [shoplink 118]EF200mm f/2L IS USM[/shoplink] & [shoplink 104]EF800mm f/5.6L IS USM[/shoplink] lenses when used with an [shoplink 2431]EOS 5D Mark III[/shoplink]: It has been confirmed that when the Canon EOS 5D Mark III Digital SLR Camera is used with the EF200mm f/2L IS USM and some units of the EF800mm f/5.6L IS USM lenses […], the Lenses may emit an abnormal noise. This is not an issue of the 5D Mark III, it concerns the mentioned lenses. The units that are affected can be identified by the serial number. See the service note below to check if you have such an unit.
Another one of those “non-scientific” tests I like so much! :-) (no kidding). This time over at EOSHD they compared the [shoplink 2431]EOS 5D Mark III[/shoplink] ($3,500) with removed OLPF vs [shoplink 4953]Sony’s FS100[/shoplink] ($5,000) vs [shoplink 4952]Panasonic’s GH2[/shoplink] ($700-800, also hacked). The test is made in an extreme (low) lights setting:
Ok, it appears that the D800 has more problems than most people would like it to have. After what we already reported (and here too), it looks as if there was another little big problem. The live view of the [shoplink 4853]Nikon D800[/shoplink] seems to be rather disappointing if compared to the one featured on the [shoplink 2431]EOS 5D Mark III[/shoplink] – at least for night shots. Photographer Ron Martinsen writes about what he calls a D800 live view zoom bug:
Good comparison between three different full-frame cameras used to shot video. Philip Bloom compares the Nikon D4 with the [shoplink 4853]Nikon D800[/shoplink] and the [shoplink 2431]EOS 5D Mark III[/shoplink]. It’s a 30 minutes review (conclusion at ~23:00) and it focuses on aliasing artifacts and low-light performance. Needless to say, the 5D Mark III has outstanding low-light performance and controls aliasing very good (check the 400% zooms!). The aliasing on the D800 is very bad, especially at 720p. So bad, that an additional aliasing filter was mounted on the D800’s sensor (to show how much it could be made better). On the other hand, the D800 has cleaner HDMI output and is generally sharper out of the box than the 5D Mark III. All in all the review shows once more that the 5D Mark III is a very good all-purpose camera. The video shows live-crops beside the recorded scenes (different high ISOs). Enjoy the video!

Looks like there is an updated version of the [shoplink 2431]EOS 5D Mark III[/shoplink] user manual (according to this forum post). Not yet clear what changed from the first version of the user guide. The PDF of the manual can be downloaded here. If someone knows what’s the difference with the previous one please let me know.
