Derrel, does canon do anything well? Just curious.
I bought about $10,000 worth of Canon gear in 2006 and 2007, including one full-frame and one APS-C body body, the 50mm f/1.8 nifty fifty (wow, what garbage), two L- lenses the 24-105 L-IS USM and the 70-200 f/2.8 L IS USM,the Sigma 80-400mm OS, a Sigma 18-125 DC,Canon's 50/1.4, 85/1.8, 135/2.8 Soft Focus, 135 f/2-L, and the Canon 100mm f/2.8 USM macro and the 580 EX-II flash, and the Canon 500D close-up lens. Except for the whacked ergonomics and the weak AF system, the pictures were okay for their day. The 5D had a weak AF system, but a VERY decent sensor in a cheap body. The 20D was "oaky" for its era. The later EOS Rebel Xt I bought for $200 was junky,and I gave that away as a gift to my niece.
But well, you can see from this video that Canon does do some stuff quite well!
So, you're safe and able to sleep well, knowing that your new Canon 5D Mark III is awesome!
