EOS 5D Mark III/X and iFCL and I'm OUT!

[EOS 5D Mark III]

I really dislika the iFCL metering system. I have the EOS 7D and the only thing I don't like with it is the terrible 63 zone iFCL system. It's totally unpredictable and seems inaccurate. I've had my EOS 7D for two years now and I still don't like the iFCL metering. So if the new EOS 5D has the iFCL metering I will not buy it! :'(

I am hoping the 5DIII(?) will have the 1DX style metering

Now that the latest rumors is heading towards 1D MkIV AF I doubt it. :-\

I've have my 7D longer than you've had yours, and I've never been let down by its metering - and I shoot in all sorts of uncontrolled, difficult light conditions.

Has the 1D4 got 1FCL??

Then maybe my EOS 7D is broken?

Always a prudent move to check before slagging off a camera

Maybe - something to have checked out before so much bitching about it, don't you think?

I have tried the 600D and it behaves exactly the same as my EOS 7D.

Perhaps it is an operator issue? as it doesn't seem to affect anyone else.

and who cares?
