Price sucks.

Camera itself is amazing. They finally put a little nob on iso button so u don’t have to search for it and waste a few seconds.

They finally moved the Q button because it was just too hard to press on my 7D and I never used it (too far top).

Love it. Don’t have money to buy it.

the big question on my mind as far as video is concerned is how good will the downsampling (and thus moire reduction) be?

The Nikons have the clean HDMI feed now, which is great, but if the 5D MkIII has better downsampling and significantly less moire, then that will be a big advantage…

I think you will find that it’s a hardware thing.

The photos make it look like a rebel body IMO, hopefully it feels more substantial than it looks.

This is the camera I’ve been waiting for. It solves ALL the gripes I had with the MKII (note: I do not shoot video). I am VERY, VERY HAPPY that Canon did not chase the MP race. I would FAR rather have larger pixels and light sensitivity than MP’s. I was very afraid Canon would do what Nikon did with the D800. Bravo, Canon!

’nuff said.

Though it seems as if the video was shot in 720p….
