Enough of this insanity on this forum!

OK, I will sum it up.

1)If you need 36MP right now, please sell all your Canon glass to me CHEAP, and buy a D800. That is an awesome camera, and as long as you get the lenses you need, then fine. Take the $500 and that will balance any loss you may take selling your lenses.

2) If you have a lot of Canon glass, and access to even more FREE Canon glass, and need the 70-800 F4IS (as I do for travel) then keep your Canon.

3) NEITHER CAMERA HAS BEEN FULLY TESTED! PERIOD.

4)What we see from Nikon are low ISO RAW to JPG from a 36MP camera (some with no AA filter, etc).. THEY ARE GOING TO BE SHARP. If you need that, get the camera and shut up. If you do not, but still do not want Canon anymore, get a D4

5) Canon's JPGs SUCK. But the RAW files I have used from test shots, the 5DIII is slightly better then the 5DII all around. But for me, it's the AF and DUAL card slots, otherwise I would keep my 5DII.. I earn money shooting and can't lose a image to a bad card or AF. (hence my 1DIII I still use)

6) Will the new Canon AF work? WHO KNOWS???

7) Will the Nikon work? From what I know, it is NOT a new system, just a improvement. So most likely it will work like the D3s and a little more.

The whining, complaining and the trolling is HORRIBLE here.. UGH
 
Why keep bringing it up?... :D

(And no, I will not treat you as a oracle of ultimate truth, so I'll continue to make up my own mind. Sorry that offends you).
 
If everyone would just please, please, please stop the threads on stopping other threads, that would probably cut the madness in half -- maybe by 2/3.

If we could eliminate the posts that use language like "decisively beats," "utterly destroys," "once-and-for-all" and "by a wide margin," to describe

If we could then delete the posts by engineers speculating about four non-existent cameras that will literally exist in a month, we would have nothing left to read!

Even though I feel a little dumber just having read these posts, I still enjoy them.
 
The poster above is why I am upset.. the NOW THAT canon has a ISO DUD and how the 5DIII CRUSHES THE Nikon D4..

"oracle of ultimate truth" I just laid out what we know so far.. Canon is releasing a 5D Mark II with 22MP and Nikon a D800 with 36MP
Why keep bringing it up?... :D

I don't think so.

I bet it will. They learned their lesson from the 1DIII.

Agreed. I have never seen so many haters whining over split hairs. I bet a lot of them will buy a 5D3 and love it.
 
Glad you posted that older D800 shot.. shows that with bad photography, you can mess up even with a high res camera.. DOF on that is way to shallow, should have shot F8-F11..

Also, its ISO 320 and I see noise in the shadows...hmm

Just go buy the 5DIII if you believe it's a good camera for you. Why so emotional about what others think?
 
....please don't take this the wrong way, I do not mean to dis-respect your post or other wise 'have a go at you', read this with a degree of humor, but the underlining message is there:-

Isn't there a degree of 'insanity' required to post a request in the expectation that the 'insanity' in the forums stops? ;-)

....can't see it changing really, & it is understandable to an extent........there has been alot of pent up expectation & excitmenet on the 5d2 replacement, & to have the main competition put out what appears to be an equally great camera at almost the same time, it was bound to cause a huge response.

....Chances are, in a month or two it will have settle back down.....& then you can look forward to the more normal "My 5d3 has" (delete as appropriate) "err99" "banding" "AF issue" posts........
 
I started coming here looking for information after the mk iii was anounced ( I have a original 5d).

All I here is people complaining about noise at iso 3200 and problems with this low iso pixel resolution and a lusting after the more megapixels of the nikon. Its a wonder anyone ever took a decent image with an older camera listening to everyone complain.

Its actually its a good upgrade from my original 5D. If I had a 5Dii I'd probably be happy I could happily hold onto that camera without losing much on quality.

instagram has brought the fun back into photography with crappy cell phone cameras. I love that app. Hope my 5diii continues rediscovery of my love of photography.
 
I used to shoot with something called FILM with cameras called 645 ;)

High iso for me was 400 ;)

Still, now that I shoot low light, I want more ;)

the trolling by the wedding shooters is horrible. I you love the 5D3 great, but that's just your opinion (and a few very vocal others). Get over it, 5D cameras have been used for many other things than weddings, and many existing users are simply very disappointed with the very un-innovative, overly expensive (compared to D800) 5D3. It really sounds like you and a few others want to force the whole Canon community to buy a 5D3 instead of a D800.
