5DIII pre-order thread

[V8Beast]

With all the hoopla surrounding the 5DIII, who actually put their money where there mouths are and put in a pre-order? Me

My order went in at 12:10 EST at B&H. Hopefully that was fast enough to get one of the first batches.

I ordered from Adorama, I got confirmation email at 10:35 PST ;D

 

[WoodysGamertag]

My confirmation email is 12:18 AM EST from BHPhoto. Hopefully that gets me one of the first cameras shipped.

I placed my B&H preorder a little after 10pm PST. Hope it was early enough to get one from the first shipment to B&H, which is probably one of the largest retailers for this camera and so I would expect they will have a sizable allotment in the first wave of mkIIIs (at least more than Adorama). I do wish I saw the preorder earlier though.

Put my order in at 12:05am EST at B&H. Hopefully I am on the list for the first batch.

As soon as I read enough to see that it was, indeed, a big improvement especially for video, I put a pre-order in at B&H -- 10:15 PST. Hopefully I'll be in the first batch, but didn't realize so many were jumping in so fast to get one. I really like the 2 stop noise improvement in the ISO.

is it worth the upgrade from the mk2.. video doesn't interest me...

I've pre-ordered as well. I can always cancel if I find that its not the improvement I am hoping for.

I am so jealous of everyone who has one on order!!!

What do I have to do to make some money? I'm just a poor grad student!!!

 

[Axilrod]

Pre-ordered yesterday, even though I was a day early I was still 4th on the list.

Hey guys, I am sure this is somewhere in one of the threads but anyone knows the availability of the 5DmkIII? Somehow I cant seen to find it in the press release...I must be blind! ???

Thanks in advance!

Maybe it's because I'm coming from a 50D, but I looked at the low light/high ISO samples from DPReview and was incredibly impressed. I'm a low light junky so the step up for me should be night and day. I preordered around 2:30am from Amazon.

Yes, I'm in. I was told mid to late March for delivery. ;D

Adorama, 9:41 Pacific (12:41 Eastern).

I probably lost 5 minutes messing around with the interface to be sure I had it correct.

Dropping fast, especially since it will remain in the Canon lineup at a lower retail price...
