Hi gtan, there is already many threads about in CS itself, and most reviews that you can Google should tell you of the differences between the mk3 and the mk2 in terms of actual usage.

Can you go to the official 5D3 user thread and read then? So much info over there, I scared its information overload for people like u.

Considering that reviews of the MkIII that have comparisons to the MkII aren't considered hand?

 

[gtan]

exactly !! too much info overload and unfortunately i am not a genius like u hence would appreciate a simple answer from a fellow user as to the simple difference between the 2 models . comprehende?

To summarize it (massively). Better ISO performance and much better AF system and more frames per second + Plenty of other small and appreciable differences.

Information overload? R.O.F.L. You're using 'don't know' to cover up your 'cannot be bothered'. My advice is for you is to not get this camera, if even reading up online is too much a chore for you. The manual that comes with the camera will cause you to run away screaming like a little girl.

Sometimes I wonder.. Why some of the people in CS couldn't simply answer the question posted? Why there is so much unnecessary reply such as "there is a search button", "spoonfed?" and some other rude reply.

I seriously wonder is this forum created to search for past or created for members to discuss? If everything have to be search.. And no communication between this community, Then this forum will be pretty much dead bcx of people who thinks like that.

Apologizes if you find my reply very rude, but at the very least that's how I feel.

If u are one of the those who had already mentioned all the differences in another thread especially dedicated to the 5D3,will u kindly ask another newbie who is looking for the same answer that u had replied in another thread to search for it?
Or would u repeat the long keying procedure and keep thinking if u had missed out any points?
Or will U go and dig back your old post to copy and paste for these newbies to spoon feed them?

After doing that,1 week later, another newbie asked the same question again.
What will u do?

Giving a review is not a simple few mins typing without thinking kind of procedure.
Some people just expect to be spoon feed without trying to take a few mins of time to read through which should be much faster than waiting for replies.

There is a fine line between those who cannot help themselves and those who don't want to help themselves. The point about many hobbies is that the best person to help you is yourself. If you don't want to help yourself, how can others help? This thread was not created for the purposes of discussion but for the TS to be spoonfed answers, as he clearly stated himself. Moreover, he is asking for information that is freely available on the net everywhere.

Let's take for example, what is depth of field. There is a whole Wiki article defining it. Coming to Clubsnap, posting a question, and waiting for the answer is just a waste of time.

I have read all the reviews and discussion here , and it depends on your expectation, but if you want a simple answer......5DIII is more expensive and better than the cheaper 5DII !

You will have to take my word for it , if you wanna know why , lots of infor here in Clubsnap and on the net, go search for it!

Cheers!

Of course, It's depends on individual. I'm the kind of person who willing to share the knowledge.

As for your question; I'll reply what the newbie is require to know and give suggestion to him/her. (if i have such knowledge, of course).

I try to stand in the person shoes first before I even say anything. It's simply just about courtesy. =)
