Yeah... bokeh with the right lens is awesome! :thumbsup:
Give the 85L a try. It is probably one of the best lens for 5D III (IMHO), and the bokeh is really awesome!
The firmware upgrade announced by Canon for the 5D3 should be ready for downloading by the end of April (according to Canon Rumours).
DXO has produced a very interesting article on Canon 5D3's over-all sharpness by testing 85 lenses. Surprisingly, the test shows that the redesigned architecture of the 5D3 sensor allows it to be 15% sharper than its older sibling the 5D2. The test also shows that two of the best lenses for the 5D3 are the Sigma 85 f/1.4 and Sigma 35 f/1.4.
Here is a quote from DXO:
"Although the Canon EOS 5D Mark III has a different sensor with a slightly increased pixel count of 22.3 Mpix, against the EOS 5D Mk II’s 21.03 Mpix, the new Mark III can boast an average increase in Sharpness (P-MPix) of 15% over the earlier Mark II model (based on the measurement data from the 85 lenses tested)."

Nice shot
Thanks
Did a few more test shoots over the weekend.. more on the AF system.
I regret not spending more time reading the manual.. and therefore was wasting alot of shots fiddling with the AF controls and modes...
