The new 5D Mark III ?!?! PICS!

[melbournite]

It's on great authority that March 2 is the announcement date. Unless, they decide to out it tonight because everyone has seen it already.

This happened with the 7D launch, we had pretty much everything out. However, they still held it to the planned release date and added "as anticipated Canon is pleased to announce" (or something like that) to the beginning of the press release.

If we create enough noise maybe? If this post gets to 30 pages?

Although it's a major release, do they necessarily have to have invitations or a big event - just a press release would do - or is that not the norm?

This images looks like the real deal guys!

Have a look at the second pic michaelrcruz has shown us, there are apparently 6 labels for the ports. The upper right port seems like a headphone jack to me. What do you guys think?

Upper left seems to say MIC, but if anything top right would be a USB port... although it doesnt look like one at all.... come to that... where IS the USB port?

Here's the side port labels :

Yup that looks like Headphone port to me

FINALLY we can have on camera monitoring. (Nothing worse than having blown out reference audio due to levels)

Can someone identify the lens on the 1DX? Great photos!

Yes, it is the 85mm f1,2L II. But i was wondering first, too. It looks unfamiliar from this angle.

It looked like a Sigma lens hood to me ???

Did anyone notice? No DOF preview button. In all of these picks you can't see the left side of the camera from the front. My guess is that there are two programmable buttons over there. +1 on the headphone jack!

This is going to be a long sleepless week.

 

[plam_1980]

There is no aperture preview button on the left side of the camera like there has been for ... how long now?

Have Canon removed it becaus they think that people no longer use it?

Or just moved it?

I wonder...

Some people already mentioned, that on 60D it is on the other side, so perhaps it is moved
