The 5D3 seems like an under-whelming camera to some CR users. Instead, lets flip the conversation on its head.
What do you like most about your MK3 or about the MK3? My Fav's are the AF and In-camera RAW processing.

How about
Programable dof button
Awesome ergonomics and build
Clean workable raw files from Iso 100 to 16000
Pro level AEB 7 shots with greater spread
Much more customisable than mk2
100% viewfinder this makes a massive difference

I love the ergonomics, and the 61 pt focus system in combination with being able to shoot 6 fps, which makes the camera so much more versatile.
One other thing I love about the 5D MKIII is the crystal clear glass LCD....Nikon's LCD are terrible!

1. 61pt AF (or 41pt the way I use it) or more to the point the accuracy against a busy background.
2. Silent shutter
3. Dual card slots

I also like the low-light ability. Have gotten keepers that I could not have dreamed of with the old 40d.

I love the autofocus system. I hated the autofocus on my 5D classic and my 7D was only a little better. Since I was trying to use prime lenses wide open for the shallow DOF it was really frustrating.
The Mark III makes my old non-L lenses seem as sharp as the L models, simply by sending them more accurate focus data. Of course the MFA helps a lot too.
The new system will allow me to take my photography to the next level... and isn't that why we buy new cameras?

I love how the 5Diii will AF correctly, even when using a tricky lens like the 85 f1.2L at f1.2, so much of an improvement over my old 5Dc!

It's not a 1Dx but makes a great second camera for me. I have found that my 1Dx is my go to camera for almost everything. Next is the 5D3. I haven't used my 7D since I got the 1Dx back in August.

The 100% viewfinder, the integrated level, the improved built quality (compared to 5D2), the dual card slot.

Only one single thing (and missing from my 1d X) the silent shutter. It's an absolute joke on the 1d x and on burst possibility either..
