Just upgraded from my 550D to 5D III. Can someone point me to things that i need to check cause I can exchange it within 7 days. Just want to make sure everything is working.
I think the one main issue with the earlier releases of the camera was the "light leak issue". Just do a google search on what serial number ranges were affected ad compare your serial number (on the bottom of your camera).
Do check if there is any dead pixel. My first one (received in March) had 6. I returned it and had to wait for two months before getting the replacement (yeah, it was that hot at that time, and at $3,500).

"Issue", which affects your metering if you have your lens cap on while shining a flashlight at the top of your camera. I wound't worry too much about that, unless that's your typical shooting scenario.
