Canon smarter than we think

Not taking the 5D3 to the MotoX? If you change your mind, I'd be extremely interested in a real world report using the 5D3 for shooting action.
I'll look out for your post on Monday!

I borrowed a 5DIII from a friend - gave it back :D
I do so much in protrait that I need the grip/series 1. I made a decision in October to get the 1Ds3 instead of the 5DIII to sit alongside the 1D4. Looks like a good decision in hindsight - I have no loss of function and my PW all work perfectly.
I have decided to have my 135 f/2 on the 1d4 rather than the 70-200 as it makes me less conspicuous. So the line up will be
1Ds3 + 17-40 f/4
7D +24-105 f/4
1D4 + 135 f/2
Will be at Canada Heights from 10 till 5

I think they priced it higher to get the past generation of folks who have been using the mkii to upgrade.

Hmmm, is the 5D3 AF as good as the 1D4 Brian? Is AF any better in very low light? The 1D4 isn't that hot in the dark. It's about the only disappointing thing about the Mk4.
I shoot 1D4 and am currently considering a 5D3. High performance AF is essential for my style of shooting.

This may help you decide since this is a thread of 1D4 users talking up the 5d3 as better in focus.

Wow, those are some very impressive images in that link. I have much to learn about the 5DIII's new AF system :)
