None of the options work for me, either. I have the 5DIII. It's OK. The 6fps bothers me more than I expected, but I guess I should have anticipated that coming from the Mark IV. I wish I had a 7D with the Mark IV frame rate and the 5DIII AF and ISOs, because it would not only be a lot cheaper than a 1Dx, but it also would actually be available for purchase.

I think a few more options need to be added to this poll :p so much hate for people who are so happy with their new camera. I don't need to justify myself to the haters, they just secretly wish they could shoot with a 5D3 - and if not, why do they continue to dwell on it and those who own one hmm ? :lol:

I wasn't sure if this thread was created out of jealousy or someone just trying to be funny.

MK3 is WAY better than MK2.
Any REAL gamer can tell you that.

Cool story: When MK3 came out in 1995 my best friend's dad owned a game distributor business. He got one of the first releases in and my friend and I stayed at the shop for days playing and trying to figure out all the combos and such. Good times!!!

What MIII camera are you talking about? I cannot afford a game (?), 1D, 1Ds, or 5D MIII, unless I sell my 5DMII and my long (?) lens.

I'm hoping to get a Mark III within the next few months hopefully...a 1D Mk III !!! (If not a 1D Mk IV).

For me it's a 1 series or nothing baby!

Everything which has a D involved is good.

That's just the right amount.

most of light_pilgrim's posts bashes on the 5DIII anyway plus this thread was only funny because of the replies so i'd say its the former

MKIII 4 life!

Why is it you feel you need to bash people that bought a 5D3 in ever thread and defend the 5D2 like its your kid?

Your poll just shows how jaded and biased you are.

Just like a lot of people on here see their new camera or lens being discussed in a thread and recommend it, even when its clearly inferior :lol:
