The original Canon EOS 5. D DSLR was the first affordable full frame DSLR. It was a highly regarded and very successful model. The Canon EOS 5. D Mark II, with its incredible 2. MP full frame sensor, launched to instant success. It continues to be a great value and sells very well even as I create this review. The 5. D II was announced about 3 years after the original 5. D, and 3 years later, anticipation for a 5. D III was running extremely high. It was another 6 months more than three and a half years after the 5. D IIs arrival and tons of When will the 5. D Mark III be announced emails later. D III was finally announced. Immediately after the announcement, the bottled up anticipation was quickly released in the form of preorders. Obviously, a LOT of people thought that the new model was right for them. And, amazingly, this camera began to hit dealer shelves in near record time less than a month after the announcement in reasonable volume. Lets review what we are getting in this new model and Ill start with Canons list of new and important features. Key specifications. Megapixel, full frame CMOS sensor.

With that impressive set of specs, the Canon EOS DSLR product lines are now blurred. The 5 series DSLRs have traditionally been markedly lower end than the 1 Series lineup though not from an image quality perspective. D III now has an impressive number of 1 Series grade features including, amazingly, the incredible AF system from the 1. D X. The 5. D III being announced and hitting the streets before the 1. D X has certainly cost some 1. D X sales, but. D X still has some advantages. To immediately help answer many of the questions Im receiving concerning which of these two incredible cameras to buy.

D III review starting with a look at the new sensor and the image quality it delivers. Impressive best available image quality for a very reasonable price made the Canon EOS 5. D Mark II the ideal choice for serious photographers. D III over a more affordable 5. D II. which has not been discontinued as of 5. D III review time. Fortunately, there is much more to the 5. D III. Canon opted for only a small increase in megapixel count to maximize image quality along with delivering the. DSLR of 6 frames per second. The Canon EOS 5. D Mark III is the first full frame camera utilizing gapless microlens technology to hit the streets. D X was the first announced full frame DSLR with this technology. Gapless micro lenses insure that all light reaching the sensor is directed into a pixel well. A new photodiode structure also improves the photoelectric conversion rate. This of course all equates to better image quality. After spending a huge number of hours evaluating the 5. D IIIs image quality, I determined that. Canon Digital Photo Pro software version 3. While 5. D III RAW files were shown very sharp in the DPP Quick View window, the same files were noticeably softer when displayed in the Edit window. TIFF files. This anomaly occurred when the Viewing and saving RAW images preference in the General settings tab of the Preferences menu selection. High quality recommendeddefaultwhat you want to use. With DPP version 3. The take away here is that you may need to. DPP software you receive with your 5. D III. For historical purposes, here is a demonstration of the original DPP problem. With corrected software in place, I can continue this review. The Canon EOS 5. D Mark IIIs small additional resolution over the 5. D II can be seen using the mouseover feature in this. Canon EOS 5. D Mark III vs. D Mark II. resolution comparison using an enhanced ISO 1. Chart. While the resolution increase can be seen in this comparison, the difference is not huge. Of course, the 5. D II had excellent resolution itself. At the link below you will find a 1. D III. 5. D missing ISO 1. These crops are especially useful for comparing ISO noise. Click on the color block image below to view a pair of image quality comparisons between several current at this time DSLR cameras. This comparison was previously featured on this page, but has been moved to its own page to avoid especially for mobile users the large file download required. If you read the image quality discussion on that page, you can skip down to the emboldened further improved words. This test gets us as close as possible to the image quality delivered directly by the sensor. With the 5. D III, Canon promised an about 2 stop advantage over the 5. D II and has said that much of this improvement is due to sensor design improvements. Obviously, the 5. D III has two higher ISO settings available than the 5. D II does, but. I havent been able to think of a scenario that the 5. D IIIs extended ISO 5. As usual, the camera manufacturers highest ISO settings are apparently only for marketing. On a direct ISO setting comparison basis, the 5. D IIIs noise improvement over the 5. D II is not remotely close to two stops at any ISO setting. Honestly, I really I didnt expect it to be. This technology is not changing that fast and Canon didnt release any disruptive technology in this case. Still, better than what was excellent before is positive. I do see some improvement in the 5. D IIIs high ISO noise especially in the highest comparative ISO settings the bar has been raised. Note that, if you cant see a difference in these comparisons, it is unlikely that you will see a difference in your images. Noise reduction is generally available to any image during post processing but continues to get plenty of in camera attention from Canon and. ISO noise improvement figures are derived from. I wanted to take a closer look at noise reduction in the 5.
