Hello All,
I was using my 5D Mark II for 3 years, before I traded it for the 5D Mark III (just couldn't resist the in-camera HDR!). It is running the latest firmware.
Now that I have been using it for several months, I have notice something undeniable: for the same speed/apperture/lighting conditions; I will have to crank up the ISO a LOT MORE on the Mark III than the Mark II (or even a 6D).
When looking at the RAW image and zooming in, there's no additional grain; so i'm starting to wonder: either..
1) Canon increased the ISO range (100~6,400 for the Mark II vs. 100~25,600 for the MarkIII), but in reality the sensitivity between each ISO increment is much lower on the Mark III
2) I got a defective Mark III on my hands....
Any similar experiences out there ?...
Thanks!!!
