It looks like it has that stupid button you have to press to change the mode dial like the 60D :/

i know, like when people hold a camera on it’s side by the normal grip then zoom and focus with their forefinger and thumb from over the top of the lens so the whole caboodle swings like a pendulum. people are insane.

Yeah, but (from what I understand as a Nikon guy), the 5D mk ii didn’t/doesn’t have a vertical cross pad on its grip…forcing a bad habit for this photographer, perhaps.

If that is a 5D mk III.. the guy should use the grip for vertical shoot… so is not 5D mk III , i just another pictures for bla bla bla bla.. ;) Wish Best Luck to all of you.

I’m somewhat disappointed that there’s no articulating display on there. It’s a feature that I’ve loved having on my 60D. I’m sure the side buttons could have been relocated to allow for this.

I think it’s to navigate the menus. Unfortunately, it’s not so easy without that second joystick on the grip that Nikon’s grips have had (to my knowledge, at least on the higher end). This photographer probably isn’t yet used to his new setup. Therefore, most likely it’s all out of habit :-). Kinda funny.

Why is this guy holding the camera so awkwardly in the vertical position? It’s crazy people still don’t know how to use the vertical grip!

1st. I think it looks like a thin strip of gafferstape to cover up text of somekind (probably “Canon”)
2nd. I don´t see what you see..
3rd. Aint that just reflections from tent roof? Kinda looks like that to me.
