Canon EOS 5D Mark III - Body Price At Announcement

[sailingsilkeborg]

With the specs that are being most frequently bandied about right now, I predict $2999-- maybe a little less, but not more.

And in the unlikely (my view) event it's priced at $3500, Canon will be making a big pricing blunder unless the thing has the 1X AF system and well over 6FPS.

$2,700 Body only, $3,500 kit price with 24-105/f4 L IS II = Dominate the market ;D

I will be taking a hard look @ the price comparision with the New Nikon 800 firmlly in my sights.

I see absolutely no point to upgrade to a 5D3. Especially for a $1,000+ price increase. 61-point AF system? Who cares? Who shoots with multiple points anyway? Center-point focus and recompose. That's how any serious photographer shoots anyway. Do people want their cameras to compose their shots for them too?

Center-point focus and recompose. For everything. lol ;D ;D ;D

it doesn't work with AI servo :'(
