The default settings are what they are, default. Every camera needs different sharpening + it is also dependant what is on the scene and what is your own perception of sharpness.
At least for my 5D2 LR shines, I also had no problems with available 5D3 RAW files.

...and apparently, soft RAW conversions is also an issue with LR.

Bang on! I would never have doubted that LR was giving bad result and had very naively concluded that something was wrong with the camera somehow. It will teach me that just because LR support a camera RAW file, it does not mean it actually do it well! :-[
LR4 gives me great result with the mkii (tried comparing it to dpp again last night for the mkii) but for the mkiii it is a totally different story. The only sad thing in this (for me at least) is that i hate the workflow in dpp, i dont find you can do as much as with LR, and I also find dpp sucks big time at NR...

This has nothing to do with default settings. LR 4 also gives me perfect result with my mkii. With the mkiii however is simply does not work that well. There is a softness compared to the mkii file that is there on all shots, while it is more apparent in some then others. It is only by comparing into the new version of dpp that you realize how much sharper the mkiii really are. Again moving the sharpness scale is not what is solving the issue here. In lightroom there is no way i can make some of those shots sharp unless i open them in dpp. Adobe simply need to update their raw converter. If you have some mkiii raw file i invite you to try it for yourself. The change are not even suttle!

+1... Some people act like you can just sharpen more, but that doesn't work, as stated 50 million times already.
What I am concerned about is that Adobe only gets it a tad sharper, and everything else should have been a lot better. Go back to the old price of Lr if that means they can get it right. I have the best lenses and the fantastic 5d3 and shoot raw to get the most out of everything, and when Lr does what it does to the file, I might as well use a 50 1,8 on a 10d shooting jpeg...

I pre-ordered mine but it seems Canon will be releasing the 1Dx when the 1Dx Mk II is available. Canon should reduce the price for those who pre-ordered thinking we would have the camera in March. Cut the price Canon!
