So we finally gets a EOS 5D Mark III with two year old stuff from the EOS 1D Mark IV. Same metering (iFCL), same AF, Digic 4 processor, weather sealing from the EOS 7D. Whilst Nikon D800 gets old the new stuff from the D4 for maybe less money spent. Yeah!

And just look how long the Noinkers have waited for a D700 upgrade...

Oh - and there's a lot to be said for proven technology: the D4/D800 AF is pretty much entirely untested and unproven.

1D4 has the same 63 zone metering as the 7D, 60D, 550D and 600D.

Good! It's a bloody excellent metering system.

Do you really think that if it was as bad as you say it is, that it'd ever have made it into the 7D, much less the Mk IV?

And how often do you read about people having the problems with that you allege exist?

No trolling,

I meant there is nothing wrong with the AF of the Mark IV and/or the metering system.
If I have to believe this topic the AF is obsolete and the metering sucks.

This is not real and it seems that what people want in the 5D III/X :

Better AF then the Mark IV
Better Metering then the Mark IV
Better this en better that....

And abcourse it must be cheap :( :( :( :( :(
It will not happen

You must be kidding !!!!!
I cannot and will not take this topic seriously.

What a nonsense.......

I did not say the AF was obselete. You did.

I don't like the iFCL metering and I stand with my point. I'm not like 99% of you guys here. Totally fanboys!

So maybe I'm trolling.

No that's not what I think.
But I am always wondering what kind of portfolio people have who are always complaining about AF/Meterings/etc../etc..

With all the current Canon and Nikon DSLR's you can take superb pictures.
If you can't it's not the DSLR which is failing,but it's the USER itself..

You have a point.

But this is the first time in my whole life that I complain about a metering issue and people start to hate me.

LOL!!! ;D

I don't hate you...
It's only equipment we are talking about..

So no I will never hate someone for sharing another thought ;)

That conversation is really great. Of course I didn't mean 'altenae' troliing but 'EOS 5D Mark III' (though it's quite funny seing 5dmk3 to troll :) ).
+1 for you both for not arguing this way :)

There was a clamour for the 7D AF and now the 1D4 AF is on the horizon everyone is after the 1DX AF - no pleasing people ::) ::)
Click to expand...

Amazing how Nikon has upped the bar, isn't it :) ? Prior to the D800 announcement, some fan boys were in outright denial of its specs, and many said they'd be content with a 9-point AF system in the 5DIII, as long as they were all cross-type points. Now they expect a 1Dx or 1D4 AF system.

What happened to all the "My skills are so pimp that I just manually focus, so I don't care about AF specs" and the "Just focus and recompose" people?
