50p/ 60p is only at 720p (come on now?), there is also no swivel screen and no ability to make you a better filmmaker by owning one đ Still H.264 recording, with an i-frame codec version but no word on the bit rate. It has been reported that we have a camera capable of two more stops of light sensitivity and low light performance only superseded in a Canon camera by the 1DX Weather sealing is massively improved but will of course be dependent on your lens being weather sealed too so it wonât let the water in there! There is timecode now on the camera, although I am not sure what the implementation of it is. For all but event filmmakers and those long documentary interviews, itâs all we need. It wonât go over that due to the ever present EU tax issue. We now have clip spanning, so we can record longer than 12 minutesâŠ29 minutes 59 seconds. The one in the current Canons is ratherâŠlacklustre. Hurrah! We also have meters on screen and we can change the levels during recordingâŠNo news on the quality of the pre-amp. We have the ability to monitor audio with the much fabled âheadphone jackâ finally coming to the Canon line. Minimised jello from the rolling shutter.

I own and adore my C300 but really want a full frame Canon DSLR for all my lenses that has next to no image issues and has a wickedly sharp image! Of course it is also much smaller and is perfect for my timelapses.ÄŻrom what I have read/ heard, video-wise we have apparently a massive improvement in image quality, not quite moire and aliasing free, but close thanks to a new processor. Why? The full frame aesthetic is so unique and still has a very clear place for me as a filmmaker.

The MKIII has been desperately needed by many, including me. There are many questions I have about it, and I have yet to see any footage PROPERLY (i.e. I would rather deal in facts and actual announced products.

If I did, this site would be littered with MKIII posts! There are many sites that do that and that is fine.

Rumours of release dates came and went for well over a year. We have been waiting for this for some time.
