Alexandros said:Am I the only one to think that 5d MK3 has very poor performance in shadows, even in low isos like 100 or 200 ?
To the op: You bought yourself the wrong camera body and should have gotten a Nikon d800 instead that improves in *exactly* these both "issues" - dynamic range and low iso performance. Lots of $$$ for gear doesn't tell you what is right for you or how to use it.
It is also correct that people somehow manage to get ok exposures even out of the 5d2/5d3 sensors .. and to answer the original question: No, this is not how it is supposed to be, expose to the right to decompress shadows while avoiding to clip highlights = max. dynamic range with min. noise.
