Canon 5D Mark III
8.8
P-Score
Critical Consensus
The Canon 5D Mark III replaces one of the most influential cameras released in the last decade, the Canon 5D Mark II, and all the changes are for the better. The focus system has been greatly improved, the ergonomics have been refined and in general the Canon 5D Mark III is a much more well-rounded camera than it's predecessor. But while there are very few complaints about the camera itself, many have complained about the new higher price and may not feel compelled to upgrade from the Canon 5D Mark II.
